Personal preference would be giving Christians preference over Buddhists even though Christians cause more harm. Muslims are the ones who maimed this man. Not Jews, not Hindus, not Christians, not Sikhs, etc. Quit trying to blame all religion for this attack when it was ONE religion that was responsible.

And have you asked yourself why?

Also, I am pretty sure Jews hate Muslims as well. They are just smart enough to not announce their hate publicly.



We aren't talking about anti-Semitism in general. We are talking about Israel and the surrounding Muslims.

Again, I will ask you. Do you think Israel is completely blameless?



Ok, so Muslims have to agree with your opinion that Hitler was evil. If they don't, then they are terrorists.

Btw, here's a treat for you: they are not the only ones who approve of what Hitler did. I had a boss who was Lithuanian by ancestry. His Lithuanian grandparents thought Hitler did nothing wrong, either. They were old enough to have witnessed Jews beating men to death and raping women. But of course, I guess to you, this is anti-semitism.



I don't blame them for their revulsion towards the gays and the related. Not saying gays should be brutalized, but I do agree that they are an aberration.



I never said I agree with or support Muslims. I can honestly tell you my opinion of them is pretty bad as well. However I just want to point out that people like you rush to Israel's defense. You are not being impartial. You are biased. Every time a Muslim did something to Israel, it's because he's a evil terrorist. You never stop to think whether Israel had done something to deserve this. In your mind, Israel can do no wrong.



Maybe if they stopped being shitty human beings, there would not be a need for this stance.

Why do you think Israel is a perfect little angel? Just give me a reason.



Just because Muslims are f*cked up, it does not mean Israel is an angel.

Israel is not an angel. Israel is the garbage man of the middle east and boy does Israel take out the trash.

i never did that, lol. stop strawmanning me. my disagreement was about your moronic conclusion that this somehow means that ALL of islam is a "stain" on humanity - but ONLY islam. you even explicitly condoned the brutal slaughtering of hundreds of thousands innocent muslims during entirely unjustified wars in the middle east. i merely pointed out how that perfectly illustrates that you're not coming from a principled position, but one of extreme bias and bigotry. you never draw those sweeping conclusions when a christian, jew, or hindu commits an act of religiously motivated violence, physical or otherwise - in fact, you support many of them.

That's fair. I apologize for the strawman.

How is my position not principled? My principle is that I'm right and they're wrong. I don't view all lives as equal so it doesn't bother me that hundreds of thousands of "innocent" Muslims died. Also, how can you say I don't draw these sweeping conclusions against others when I've called for the extermination of Protestants?

I agree that religions are generally bad, but some are worse than others.

For example, you very rarely hear about Buddhists murdering people. You cant say Buddhism is in the same category as Islam.

MAYVILLE, N.Y., Aug 18 (Reuters) - The man accused of stabbing novelist Salman Rushdie last week in western New York pleaded not guilty to second-degree attempted murder and assault charges on Thursday and was held without bail.

Hadi Matar, 24, is accused of wounding Rushdie, 75, on Friday just before the "The Satanic Verses" author was to deliver a lecture on stage at an educational retreat near Lake Erie. Rushdie was hospitalized with serious injuries in what writers and politicians around the world decried as an attack on the freedom of expression.
