Have you been a soldier? If not then it's assumption on your part. That is a very fallacious argument on your part. Once again, there is video evidence that contradicts your claims all over liveleak.No it's not fallacious. Being shot at means you shoot back. Thinking otherwise is fallacious.[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"][QUOTE="SquatsAreAwesom"] This is nothing but a romantic take on the matter. There are plenty of videos all over the internet in which our own soldiers are shown taking it personally. Further, there are plenty of cases in which they have also been charged for it. That said, if this is still your stance, do you believe only OUR soldiers share this trait? or all soldiers?SquatsAreAwesom
[QUOTE="Famiking"]
Haha, people will claim that it's the Jewish homeland referring to the people, but it hardly makes any difference. It's like saying Hamas isn't an Islamic terrorist group, only a Palestinian one.
Yet you would get laughed at if you say Hamas has nothing to do with Islam. Same for Zionism and Judaism.

Freedom of Speech my ***. Anyone with half a brain cell would know that picture drawn intentionally to hurt muslims. Theres a difference between freedom of speech and being down right offensive!
Disturbed123
Yeah, not so much.
I read the article in Jyllands Posten, did you?
He´s drawn numerous charicatures and toons depicting lots of different things, he is in no way excusively "targeting" the muslims. This is all in your head.
In Denmark, we are used to having the liberty to do as we please within reason, the artist did not see this aftermath coming, no one did really.
The reason they got republished in Jyllands Posten, was because Denmark wanted to set the example; that we have a thing called freedom of speech, and we enjoy practicing that right. The republishing had nothing to do with the Prophet, but it had everything to do with our embassies getting torched by instigators trying to threaten us into practicing their ideals regarding how we should run our own country.
But the reason Hamas carries out its activities is for Palestine, not for Islam. They use Islam as a catalyst for hate towards Israel.grape_of_wrath

Because the biggest monsters traditionally build the biggest empires.
What emprie? There was no empire until a few 100 years later. And well the whole warlord point is ignorant as it is, on its own merits. Wrong. He was a military leader who ordered his warriors to butcher for his cause. He was a warlord who forced non-muslims to convert or he would have them killed. He was a violent blood thirsty man who killed christians and jews. He was a misogynist who thought women as slaves.

Oh?
He was a military leader who ordered his warriors to butcher for his cause.
He and the Muslims were being persecuted and killed. What's wrong with them fighting back?
He was a warlord who forced non-muslims to convert or he would have them killed.
There isn't a single verse from the Koran or saying from the Hadith that endorses that.
He was a violent blood thirsty man who killed christians and jews.
...Out of self defense. He was friends with Jews and Christians as well.
He was a misogynist who thought women as slaves.
I'd like to see where you got this from.
He was a paedophile who took a child as a bride - in other words, he was a bad man.
Yes, as we all know, the age of marriage was ALWAYS 18. :roll:

For the sake of satire, i think we should. Insults can be very funny. And if You don't like it You don't even have to see it. If You can't insult or laugh about something anymore, or can only show what people think is an agreeable truth........ well then that something is becoming very threatening and totalitarian, and it would be very hard to show anything without an axe murderer on our doorsteps.this is like waving the red flag in front of the bull.
if muslims find it offensive to have the face of muhammed in pictures then the ONLY reason someone does this who isn't a muslim is to incite a negative response. Then they try and hide behind "free speech" and claim they have a right to do whatever they want.
that is true but you also have to be prepared for the consequences
I could go to up a guy and just start calling him names and abusing him verbally, now I have a right to do that and there's no law that says I can't but should I then complain if I get socked in the mouth?
Normally I'm all too happy to take a shot at islam, but I don't think that this event is indicative of the feelings of many. I understand that there was a big uproar shortly after the cartoon surfaced, but most of those people have moved on with their lives.

The moderate muslims didn´t give a rats ass, until the extremists started putting their spin on it.
Also, i love how you go on to say that his incentive must be malicious, since he is not a muslim (because muslims never criticize their own culture nor religion, right? And subsequently get killed for it?), and that you assume his motives are strictly to incite a negative feedback. In what world does that make sense, in a media platform?
No one is "hiding" behind freedom of speech, but freedom of speech is being utilized for defensive purposes, and with good reason i might add, since a lot of the criticism were both directly and indirectly targeted at it.

Whatever point you´re trying to get across, i literally cannot deduce it from your comment. o_0 What seminars? What religious debates? Who deemed what necessary? Who showed the drawings to the muslim world? The fundies did, it´s not like we send a copy of it to al jazeera. If things get misconstrued in that transaktion, how is it our fault? Are you even blaming us? I wish i knew your angle, it would make addressing your points a lot easier.
