What the hell? So In reaction they come out and threaten to bomb people and kill people and be terrorists? If they were upset about islam being portrayed in the light of terrorism they have a funny way of going about it :/errr no the fact that in one of the cartoons mohammad supports the terrorists that he would help them in heaven is one that obviously shows mohammad is supporting the radicals, and saying that all muslims by their religion must support the terrorists.
Who knows? How you guys select what you're going to be outraged by is beyond me... I mean look at the fuss over this, yet muslims come out and condone terrorism (not just cartoons... real people) and there's no counter-protests... My assumption is southpark is not known about in the middle east and also it is a regular cartoon show - not a part of a newspaper.how come there wasnt the same degree of anger when south park made him a power ranger.
well on one of your previous posts you made it seem like every muslim supports the violent revenge attacks by the more radical types.Not-That-Bright said:I don't know why you're talking about me? I've only just got here :/
As has already been stated the cartoons came out in september it was only after a touring group of danish imams went around the middle east stirring up shit that this all started. Incidentally some of those danish imams were non-citizens and they are going to be expelled to the third world hell holes that they came from by denmark.Simpson Freak said:"There was no implication of Muhummad being a terrorist in any of the cartoons in the context they were originally published in, and since this was the only context they were ever supposed to be published in I can't see how you can say that they are depicting him as such."
well try to stop denying it, the one with the bomb turban is a clear terrorist label.
The Muslim community would have been pissed off even if the one with the bomb on his head weren't there."
errr no the fact that in one of the cartoons mohammad supports the terrorists that he would help them in heaven is one that obviously shows mohammad is supporting the radicals, and saying that all muslims by their religion must support the terrorists.
anyway you still missed the point on purpose, how come there wasnt the same degree of anger when south park made him a power ranger.
I dunno what you're talking about.well on one of your previous posts you made it seem like every muslim supports the violent revenge attacks by the more radical types.
i agree with your condemnation of such people, but you make it seem like i agree,
That's the people whom decide to react to its problem... not the newspapers.but again you fail to acknowledge that the paper had a big part in this, even though they are the lesser of 2 evils, but still in this current political climate their spark could have triggered a power keg.
No one (well close) thinks all muslims are violent in such a way... it's just that we're overwhelmed by the stories we constantly see/hear from these violent types with modest-by-comparison backlashes from other muslims...btw, i was very happy when i saw there were protests in london by muslims who were against the violent ones that were there the previous day, i was hoping that would make many understand that atleast in the modern society muslims dont condone the violence against the newspaper.
Who are you responding to garbagedump?garbagedump said:"methods of the Danish media" What a loser...meaninglessly saying this..
"posing a question"...you can make anything seem like it's posing a quesion...hey look at those terroists in the videos...i think they are posing the question should they stop
"kill people and be terrorist" threatening to kill does not equal being a terroist
I've actually discussed the methods of the Danish media with 3 Danes since this controversy started, and they've all told me that it's very common for Danish cartoons to pose a question through a double meaning, thus leaving their message open to interpretation. The analogy you have made is shithouse, please don't try to enter reasoned debate again until you can actually form an argument.garbagedump said:"methods of the Danish media" What a loser...meaninglessly saying this..

well the cartoons were republished and all, i think thats when it was protested, so why do u think it will help ur argument if u make fun of their countries.banco55 said:As has already been stated the cartoons came out in september it was only after a touring group of danish imams went around the middle east stirring up shit that this all started.

this may surprise you but injustice is widespread in human history.Not-That-Bright said:You're comparing the situation with aboriginies in Australia and Arabians? :/ lolz!
Bullshit. Israel has no natural resources, has had to pay crippling defence costs over the years bus still has a gdp per capita on par with Europe. Not to mention those poor former colonies singapore and hong kong. How does decisions taken by the british 80 or more years ago stop the Arabs from prospering? Do the british drawn borders prevent the arabs from producing heaps of first class scientists like the Israelis do? Did the borders leave arabs unable to build TV's, cars etc. like the asians?Simpson Freak said:well the cartoons were republished and all, i think thats when it was protested, so why do u think it will help ur argument if u make fun of their countries.
most of the time they are hell holes now because of what europe did to arabia and all (eg ww1 and lawrence of arabia crap) . its like making fun of aborigines even though they have such low health and life expectancy because of previous treatment by whites
better yet, why are some blaming muslims for getting angry, for many on the brink of radicalism, this can be seen as just another reason to become violent, and it has brought out all the radicals to commit violence and yet the newspaper is fighting for the freedom to insult people.funnybunny said:I think what garbagedump is trying to say very incoherently is that withoutaface's comments, "methods of the Danish media?" are nonsense. If you watched frontline, the media's intentions are all to arise anger and have one intention to increase ratings. By introducing something so controversial the danish newspaper has obviously increased its profits.
"was posing a question, not making a statement" I really doubt it was a question, rather a unjustifed statement.
"That's the people whom decide to react to its problem... not the newspapers." Actually it's the people who fuel the attacks, that are to blame. The Danish newspaper knew that it would fuel anger and violence, yet they disregarded this and continued to publish it. How can one support freedom for Denmark when it is them that really fuels this anger?>
These people had no reason to lie to me, and it hardly needs to be a survey with 1000 different demographics. That's like saying if I asked 3 people on the street what the capital of Australia was then I'd be wrong to conclude that the answer is Canberra.funnybunny said:"'ve actually discussed the methods of the Danish media with 3 Danes since this controversy started, and they've all told me that it's very common for Danish cartoons to pose a question through a double meaning, thus leaving their message open to interpretation." You really are stupid aren't you. There are many things wrong with your method. You discussed the methods with 3
