You tell me. I haven't been keeping up on it, but when I do, it seems it's usually about land or retaliation. I don't remember religion being involved in the general Israeli attitude towards Palestinians. I do understand that every now and then some Jewish nutcase loses it and takes stuff into his own hands. I put that up there with the Hebdo shootings. So you didn't answer my question. Do you?

Then you'll know the Arabs started the Arab-Israeli war after listening to a Nazi fleeing the noose post WW2. Probably a bad idea in hindsight. Peace would have been the preferred choice.

Argus Posted December 18, 2016 Author Report Posted December 18, 2016 14 hours ago, Canadianjim said: Good post.... Quite! It well-illustrates the appalling level of ignorance of the knee-jerk reactionary leftists who are so eager to support any and all immigration and refugees. Let's see, in the cite we have a chamber of commerce guy who represents business, which always benefits from more people, regardless of who those people are. We have an academic who seems to believe the refugees are predominately middle class despite all evidence suggesting they are mostly very poor, rural and uneducated folks, and another academic who says that the Vietnamese who came here did well. Note, the Syrians are not the Vietnamese. Then we have those hoary old cliches about needing immigrants because of an impending labour shortage - which has been repeatedly proven to be a lie, and needing immigrants to offset an aging population, which has also been repeatedly proven unworkable by demographics experts. All in all, a cite of complete ignorance which the completely ignorant can wave aloft in support of their ignorant ideological support of mass immigration.

And if you don't think religion doesn't support atrocities today, better see what's being done to the palestinians. Paid for by Christians dollars. Please don't introduce your Jew hatred into this topic. There are many other topics available to those who despise Jews. As for your denial of the obvious truth that there is no support of Christian theocratic rule but massive worldwide support for Sharia law and Islamic rule, one can only ascribe that to extreme ideological blindness.

How about tens of thousands of terrorist attacks in the name of Islam in the last fifteen years all across the world? How about the fact the only immigrants to Canada, the US or Europe who have committed mass violence in the name of either political or religious beliefs are Muslims? How about the fact that the only religiously inspired violence committed in Canada comes from Muslims. How about, you know, reality?

Everything about the cultural value system of the middle east is easily as exclusive as the KKK. Pan Arabism and the entire notion of the "caliphate" and Dar al-Islam excludes anyone who isn't Arab and Muslim. Incidentally, Dar al-Islam means the House of Peace. It is where Muslims rule. The rest of the world, where Muslims don't rule, is called Dar al-Harb, which is The House of War, which are the places Muslims must conquer. There is no cultural or social instinct towards peaceful co-existence, equality and respect for non-Muslims in any of the 57 Muslim countries.
