There is no way of discussing group behavior without generalizing. Anyone with even a reasonable degree of intelligence understands there will be individual variation within a group. That does not invalidate what we can expect of the GROUP in terms of behavior.

Like discussions about bigots and racists and whatnot?

A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

I understand.  They would only equate to some Muslims.  There is no KKK equivalent of the rest of the Muslims, as far as I know.

What percentage of the Muslim world do you think approves of homosexuals or Jews?

I'm holding my breath for the (another) grandiose assumption.

  • Lebanon - 99 percent
  • Egypt - 98 percent
  • Morocco - 88 percent
  • Indonesia - 76 percent
  • Pakistan - 74 percent

On the question "Should society accept homosexuality" the answer was no from:

Lebanon - 80 percent

Turkey  -    78 percent

Palestine -  93 percent

Egypt      -  95 percent

Jordan    -  97 percent

No what? Millions upon millions of Americans and Canadians have voted for acting this way for decades now. You might have a point if Muslims had been left with or given the same 'opportunity'.

Most of these countries are dictatorships.  The people don't have a say. This has been going on way before the US even existed. Of course you dont know this as your knowledge of history has already been exposed as suspect.

That doesn't wash AFAIC.  Americans know better than to behave the way they do and just as its particularly more disgusting when a priest, a shining beacon so to speak, abuses a child so to is it particularly grotesque when America goes around knocking off democracies and exporting its own variously peculiar brands of fanaticism abroad.

 

You are now excusing Muslims that they dont t know any better?

You suget it worse when priests abuse children, which of course it is.  You then however support ideology that supports pedophilia by males aND enacts the most barbaric tortures thought of by man.

Disconnect.

I was responding to the concern of sex slavery in Muslim countries as if it's non existent here. 

You cannot seriously suggest it goes on at the same levels?

That's like saying murders occur at the same rate in Caracas (3998) or about 30 places down Detroit (395). Toronto had 57.

Every single case is horrific but a blip on the radar.

Ok. Fair enough. Start with the book "the General's son" By Miko Peled or watch video of his speeches to various international groups on your tube.

Why would I be worried about redneck cross burners? You obviously haven't followed the discussion.

I have. You can't grasp similarities. Both of their mandates include the annihilation of people different than themselves.

Nor KKK members. So you're okay with importing tens of thousands of KKK members every year right?

, .maybe they'll assimilate.

Not a lot of difference between the KKK and Islam.

As i explained,  lot the same. Plus both sides wear long flowing whiterobes. Coincidence?

Islam nor the KKK are 'races'.

As if you still have to clarify this.

On Sunday, December 18, 2016 at 0:28 PM, herples said:

The KKK are white supremacists and Islam is a religion I would say that is a big difference.  

KKK are after southern autonomy.

Islam is after world domination. You're right if you think Islam is 100% scarier.

Other religions aren't slaughtering people by the trainload.

Neither are the KKK.

The KKK originally was against the freed black slaves and to keep the them from voting. Around the 1920's there was a shift towards Catholics and immigration. It's message is the same however, to keep white rule in the south.

As long as they stay dowm south.Does a southern man of any colour give a shit if I vote or not? 

On Sunday, December 18, 2016 at 0:49 PM, herples said:

You cannot separate the KKK from it's white supremacist roots by claiming that it was only against northern influence. 

You cannot separate Islam's roots by saying it was only against jews and peace.

On Sunday, December 18, 2016 at 1:03 PM, herples said:

Islam isn't based on the basis of being Arab or middle eastern where as the KKK is based on the basis of being white. 

Islam is believing a ridiculous book and based on being the one true religion.Also discrimination.

The KKK is no slouch politically over its lifetime...5 million members during the 2nd Klan. WW2 put an end to it.

...1.5 billion holds a lot of crazy tjough.

None of this really matters other than comparing Islam and the KKK is comparing apples to oranges.

same same. ...kill kill

I read a lot of non fiction about it

I do watch youtube debates but cannot stand the constant screaming. 

A book I read awhile ago was called The Lemon Tree. Slow bit really showed the human side to the conflict.

 An Israeli born Jew...who served in the IDF.,..... who's father was a general in the 67 war . who's grandfather was one of the founders,,

You dare imply is fiction?? Tell your what you give me a source that has that kind of credibility. There is no source you have that can match it.. None.

So quit the bullsh^t and then we can have a conservation. We already know the  fiction that  we have been living with for decades ,such as Israel was attacked in 1967. We  know today  thanks to Menachem Begin's  admission, Israel started 3 of it's wars including the 1967 War. However I suspect you don't even know that. We'll see how much propaganda you believe.
