Canadian Journalist Attacked by Muslims

[Fragony]

Well I think the problem with Islam is what we make of it. Islamic culture is in many things vastly different from ours, and it belongs in another time and most of all in another place, and we see our inability to give it a place here in the west as some collective faillure of our own. We say we respect it, but we really think it's all bull and that they will all gladly welcome the great enlightment, but they don't, they actually believe all that, and a good nose needs only half a fart. Too much respect for what is different, just because it is different. Just keep a respectable distance, and we will all be just fine.

edit: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh another fine example of major overdhimmification, and the rigid self-enforced respect for those that don't have it, the tsunami of cultural undertanding to wash out just a tiny little wee fire; a school in Amsterdam no longer teaches about farms because the little rascalls go a little bit jihad because they grow pigs there. I say more commisions, bring in the socioloco's to map out this truly fascinating development.

Really? What I often wonder when I hear about stuff like this is, do they really go a little bit jihad or are people just afraid they'll go a little bit jihad without asking because then they might go jihad?

I have to agree with you on some points actually, especially about the belief that they will instantly see the value of a society with values different than their own. Anyway this is a problem only time can solve, not special weeks in schools with incredibly long names or timidity in history teaching.

Exactly that, and then these multiculturalists dare say that it is me that is afraid.

That wouldn't by any chance translate as ....a school canceled its agricultural field study trip to a pig farm .....would it .

But i disagree on one point:

Muslims don't fare well anywhere

They actually are faring well, provided they keep their heads low and not whine constantly, for instance the US and Latin America there are many immigrants who are successful and educated, its not the case with europe where most of them are uneducated, which spells a whole load of problems.

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

Aha, so now we cut to the quic.

Education. We have problems with Afro-Carribeans shooting each other in London at the moment, they also lack a decent education.

So who's fault is this, the parents, the state or the individual?

I remember reading about that, that Arab Americans (Muslims or Christians) usually have a higher income than the american average.

So who's fault is this, the parents, the state or the individual?

Well... Either one of those, two of those or all of those! That's the great thing with people, they're usually so different its illogical!

Just breathe, or don't

No Tribes, I guess it doesn't
