Another installment from “Muslim Terrorist”

Another installment of what has been going on recently outside of this blog. In my debate with the guy who seems to think all Muslims are terrorists, we successfully argued ourselves into circles. I will admit, he is a good debater and did cause me to stumble on some of the US Constitution questions and I will admit I do not know the document as well as I should. His logic related to why I was Anti-American because I dissent was not logical at all and all boiled down to the point where, I obviously have to be anti-American because I support the “enemy” which is Islam, yet as a dissident, I cannot challenge this assertion. This logic makes no sense because as a dissident, I can question everything, so to tell me that such and such is given does not prove I am such and such. I believe that as an American it is my duty to question my government’s actions, motives & definitions and to tell me I cannot is just stupid.

While I did not succeed at changing his mind about Islam, and I realized I wasn’t going to be able to, I decided to end with the following and I will not go back to respond. I’m sure I will be called more names, and I take pride in being called them. In fact, I posted some of them publicly for everyone to see. Names do not change the fact that I will never stop challenging my government & the people who are elected to be the government.

The first part of my response is in relation to Gaza, where he is a supporter of the actions of Israel, so I left him a little feed back regarding that. The last half is my final comment in which I leave him with some videos to watch. I do not expect him to watch them or even have them change his mind, but at least I can say I tried to show him that the “terrorists” are not who he says they are. Islam is a peaceful loving religion with some wonderful people within it. The media tends to focus on the extreme right wing of the faith – whom everyone I know either hates or even goes so far as to say they are not Muslim.

So, without further talking, here is what I left him with:

I’m going to respond with two final posts. As I’ve been working, I have come to the understanding that I will not succeed at my goal with you, which was only to open your eyes to the idea that your ideas of Islam are based on a false ideal that you have seen either in the media, on the web or even in the battle field. I will continue to attest to the loving & peacefulness that comes from those who practice what is truly Islam. The Islam you fear is not the Islam of the world, but a right wing fringe group of people who fail to realize what Islam really is.

There is one point I want to make regarding your final comments: Wikipedia is not a source you can trust. As an academic, I do not accept it as a primary source from my students – it is edited by users. While most of it can be used as a good source of information, there are flaws. One of them being that the Gaza ceasefire ended not on Dec. 18th, but on November 5th when Israeli tanks entered Gaza in a raid that killed 6 Hamas militants, injuring four Israeli soldiers.

In addition, if you are truly wanting to know your facts, I suggest you take a look at the most recent report of the events surrounding “Operation Cast Lead” known as the Goldstone Report, written by a Zionist Jew hired by the UN to investigate both Hamas and Israel for war crimes. Within it, it condemns both Hamas and Israel, though I will be honest with you, it is much more critical of Israel, which is why the US House has said President Obama should be in opposition to it.

Finally, I will leave you with two videos on youtube. The first is a CNN discussion on AC 360 featuring Glenn Beck, A Pew Research Poll & two Muslim authors. While I do not agree completely with Glenn Beck and I do find his show on TV to be more about theatrics than real substance, he would be considered a liberal compared to your stance on Muslims. The two Muslim authors provide you with a Muslim voice to it as well. Take from it what you will. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hc9Ig5nqdxo

And finally, this is a video produced by MAS Media Foundation in which they asked 2,000 American Muslims what they wish to say to the rest of the world. These, you say, are terrorists. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4ks_yRJsHE

I will continue to debate you on this website, I’m sure. And with that, I will take my “Anti-American, Terrorist Loving” Actor Duck butt to bigger and better things – waking up the world from their slumber as their government continues it’s wrong ways. Until we cross again, salam.

Here is his response:

“And there you have it folks, a stereo typical jew-hating muslim. Exit, stage WAY left. What you have here is proof positive of the evils of Islam and its followers. You also have proof positive that we badly need reform and most importantly, BALANCE, in the halls of academe. This idiot is typical of the people who are poisoning the minds of young adults at once-great colleges and universities across the nation.

Stick your salam where the sun doesn’t shine, terrorist.”

So, not only am I a Jew hater, I’m a Muslim, I am showing exactly the evils of Islam & why we need to reform the schools. Oh yeah, I’m a terrorist as well. The sad thing is I feel sorry for this guy, a little bit, because despite everything he still has not changed any of his opinions. He can watch the videos I sent (though I doubt he watched them) and still type these words. This is why I am not responding to him anymore and I’m sure he will get pissed off because of it, but when you seriously hate something that much – you need some help and I cannot offer it to him since I am the “enemy”.
