Tons of hypocrisy involved in this debate from a nationwide standpoint, as well as in the corners of this forum.

In England we have seen groups of Muslims protest the homecoming parades of Soldiers, holding up signs such as "Butchers of Basra" and "Soldiers go to hell". I think we would agree that the examples you gave and the example I just gave are bad.
It's not hypocritical to focus more of your attention on the bigger problem - which I would argue is Islam. You can disagree on that if you want, but not everything is of equal good or bad. And the way to deal with it is not to add more bigotry (ban all muslims/baiting the population for votes), but to accept the issues we are facing and try to deal with them rationally.

actually its not just muslims who oppose western militarism/imperialism
jules jammal was a syrian military officer who killed himself in a suicide attack on 29 October 1956 on a french warship he was an orthodox christian syrian and is considered a hero/freedom fighter among arabs both muslim and non-muslim so you really shouldn't generlize about muslims that way.... it's more correct to say arabs oppose the west. not just muslims. |

I think I know your point but just want to be sure. In hindsight this was a pretty douche overreaction by the US. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intern...nese_Americans
