All this shows is that Muslims in the west have a lot of time on their hands for demonstrations.
Don’t any of them have jobs?

Muslims are a growing presence in the West. Islam is the fastest growing religion in Europe and America. Every year tens of thousands of Americans convert to Islam.
Once Muslims achieve strong political power, Israel’s last defenders will be no more.
Your special relationship with America will end, as will all aid and trade.
You know this fact, that Islam is going to dominate and it installs fear in you. Enjoy the support from the US while you got it, soon it will be a distant memory.
Israel is doomed.

Well Michael, it applies the same way your people has a lot of time to reinforce the Holocaust, 60 years ago... People are entitled to demonstrate disatisfaction regardless of religion.
Not sure about Israel but on developed countries citizens have rights...

Now don’t play ”l’INNocent with me, boy.
You are so GOURgeous!!
(But, to be perfectly polite, one tends nowadays to say ”Oh my golly-gosh”. SO much, je ne sais pas, more ”de rigeur” than ”Oh my god”.
DARRling, take some advice.
”Some would say” should now be pronounced, in prOPer circles,
ANTI-RACISTS WOULD SAY!!!!!

It would be great to see an end to the Israeli massacre of Palestinian people. It is skeletish when people promote racist ideas much like in Nazi Germany. All forms of rejection is ridiculously annoying. It is also skeletish when people hate me for being Jewish or gay. All forms of prejudice is unjust. All humans should be treated equal. Racism, homophobia, sexism, discrimination against people with disabilities, anti-semetism, etc. are all equally evil.

Yet somehow you can’t find it within yourself to demand that Hamas stop claiming its declared intention is to destroy Israel. What about their rejection of Jews?
1 Stars
I believe that Hamas should be all destroyed. hunted and killed, one by one. I have no doubt, it will happen. If all the finance and efforts we gave Israel over the years as investment works, Palestine will be free of these ignorant fundamentalists to become a peaceful nation and we can concentrate on making sure Israel return all pre-1967 territories.

Yeah, the world stands with Gaza and our Arab leaders and sheikhs stand with the ones killing Muslims in Gaza.

The Muslims in Gaza are not that victims mate... we know quite well how annoying a Palestinian can be... As a matter of fact, I wonder why I can’t find a place on Earth where Muslims are living in peace right now... There is none! I wonder why... So don’t play victim here... Saudi Arabia is the major reason for this turmoil... I can’t wait until the oil finishes...

Muslims in Gaza are being massacred by those who are occupying their land. And you’re saying ”we” know how annoying a Palestinian can be. There is no we here. If you enjoy seeing people dying, and justify all these acts of terrorism against Palestinians, then it is your choice to choose not be human. But please do not speak for me or my fellow humans.
And as for Saudi Arabia, it is not the major problem. But I admit It plays a role in this like all Arab countries that choose to be puppets of the USA government which is the major problem.
And by the way those Arab leaders including the Saudi royals who see Muslims being massacred but choose to ignore do not speak for me.

Please spare me of this basic twist of words. There are people dying everywhere. Its called civilization. social adjustment is part of being Human as you call it.
I am not saying that Palestinians deserve this fate. On many occasions I have said that both countries are totally wrong and the fact that Palestine has initiate attacks against Israel show they are stupid. Very stupid. It also reinforce my and many others believe that Muslims can’t leave in peace anywhere.
State over religion! Always! The common good of a population is more important to be protected that ideologies, especially those reinforced by tribalistic beliefs where ignorance and dogma are held together.
I am not speaking for you. I never did. Your country finance terrorism and mine suffers the consequences of it. we cannot be possibly be looking through the same angle at all. And if you are against Saudi policies as you claim, you probably do it quietly. Afraid of the same forces that I am here against.
As for the how Palestinians can be annoying, ask any Australian and New Zealander who suffer the discriminatory chants and bad manners of ”Palestinians ” living here, saying bad thing of our women, wives and mothers alike, because we chose to be free of religion blindness and live our lives as just civilized beings.
Yes, the world is tired of so much nagging and religious tolerance. Yes, the Indians are tired of Pakistan. and all the other reasons I can find to argue, only comes down to one answer. The maturity of Islam as a religion and not as a state.
Show us that Islam can live in peace. Show us that Palestinians can work and stop to find excuses. Find an Arab father who will stop his son of throwing stones at Israeli tanks and finally, find me a Saudi who will talk of Humanity inside Mosques without have their tongues cut.
Then, we may can talk at same level. Until it happens, I will be entitled to raise my opinion focusing the issue as a whole without wonder of the stupid sidelines that Middle-Eastern media wants to use against Israel.
Yes, Israel has many faults. They may not be the most polite and educated people on Earth, but if Palestine has the right to attack, so does Israel of retaliating. If it was me, I would...

Siddesh, I am someone who hates racist thought. If you really mean what you say, then you too are part of the problem.
My comments here have been violent, scathing, ironic, maybe even insulting in some people’s eyes. I have even given people a dose of their own medecine to see how THEY feel being at the receiving end, but I have not indulged in insulting muslims as such, their religion as such or their culture as such.
I may get very angry with PEOPLE, or what they say, but nothing else.
People may not appreciate my approach, but I cannot be said to be a racist.
I hope you aren’t either...
I don’t like racism. Be it written by a friend or foe of Islam or Judaism or anyone else.
It cuts both ways. You can’t choose what is ”good” or ”bad” racism. It’s ALL bad.
If this is a serious comment Siddesh, I DO NOT LIKE IT!!!
Respect.

talk about Judeo and Christianaphobia..with the picture of the Indonesians with ”One Solution- wipe Israel off the map”.. and you dare condemn those of us critical of Islam...
you say it in your own words...
”You know this fact, that Islam is going to dominate and it installs fear in you. Enjoy the support from the US while you got it, soon it will be a distant memory.”
You just prove there are few moderate Muslims in this world and that Islam has imperialistic designs on the world.
Not in my lifetime, my friend.
P.S. Love how Instablogs has become the Marco Villa blog.

Insulting huh? Makes you mad huh?
Well, this is where you learn that racism, sexism (oh don’t worry, I’ve read your opinions on women), ageism, and all the other isms that you seem to revel in are one-and-the-same-thing and are ok as long as YOU’RE not being targeted. Well now you ARE being targeted.

”Obviously” is a strong word for you... Let’s say that I am someone with far more qualifications and life experience than you and the Saudi combined.
Not just on my argumentation but my willingness to speak freely of any religious intolerance.
Hassan and Almaha, unless you have anything constructive to add in regards this debate, I see no reason why I should provide personal details of my being.
Once again, fallacy. You both are incapable to come up with reasonable explanations or at least a proper discussion to this topic.
Now, go bend to West...

Hi Almaha,
”Hassan Rizvi
Yeah bro I know, just wanted it to be confirmed :p”
I would just like to say that
1. I totally understand the anger and injustice you feel (and that’s not just words, go to my page, click on comments given, or my posts) for the Palestinian people. I feel the same things.
BUT
What with
2. ”Bro’s” like Hassan (bourgois and retired civil servant preaching the death of Israel from an armchair thousands of miles away)
And
Marco Villa (”Concerned American” but apparently, him too, living thousands of miles from where it’s at, and too ”American” to go and put his money and his life where his mouth is)
And
Nice upper-class well-fed and impeccably dressed students in Jakarta Indonesia calling for the world to ”wipe off (wipe ”out”, but their english is appalling)Israel and Zionism” (would you REALLY want to be one of them?)
You have a problem.
Yep, and your problem is, that with ”Bro’s” like those, you certainly do NOT need enemies.
They are my enemies though.
Because they are the enemies of peace. They are the proponents of violence.
They don’t give a shit about the Palestinian people.
I may be ”just” a Westerner” to you, but, believe me, I want peace for Palestine, Israel, and everyone else, more than this rabble-rousing bunch of intellectual renegades.
Get real, Almaha. Please.

My apologies as a Jew in the Israeli massacre of Palestinian people in Gaza
I, as a Jewish humanist socialist, gay-rights activist, disabled-rights activist would like to apologize personally to the Palestinian people and other Muslim friends, to the massacre and destruction that is going on right now in Gaza, Palestine. It is a tragedy what is happening right now with more Palestinians dying and suffering in Gaza. I pray that Israel will stop her bombing and siege of Gaza. I hope that your families are safe.
May our friendship and peace grow between Palestine and Israel. May we bring hope and light in this time of sorrow in the darkness of Zionist evil.
Salaam and shalom to you all,

Thanks for your kind words toward the Palestinians.
But you do not have to apologize, you’re not responsible for the attack. Only the IDF is.
This might interest you, 500 residents in Sderot have signed a petition calling for an end to the Israeli attack:
The period of clam change the lives of the people of Sderot, Ashkelon and the region beyond recognition, allowing all of us to experience again a life that is more normal and sane. The continuation of this calm is essential and criticial to the residents of the region from every possible aspect: physical, mental, spiritual and economic.
Another round of escalation may break our already brittle spirit, and take us all to another round of self-destruction and pointless bloodshed. It is not certain that we will survive. And you must be aware of that, if you indeed care about the residents of this area. We’ve been through this movie too many years–and results speak for themselves: feeling trapped, abandonment, and hopelessness for us and our children!
On the other side of the border live a million and a half Palestinians under unbearable conditions, and most of them want, like we do, calm and the opportunity of a future for themselves and their families.
We live in the feeling that you have wasted that period of calm, instead of using it to advance understandings and begin negotiations, as well as for fortifying the houses of residents as promised.
We call on the Prime Minister and the Defense minister not to listen to the voices of incitement and do everything they can to avoid another round of escalation, to secure the continuation of the calm and to work...towards direct or indirect negotiations with the Palestinian leadership in Gaza in order to reach long term understandings.
We prefer a cold war without a single rocket to a hot war with dozens of victims and innocent fatalities on both sides.
We ask you to offer us the possibility of political arrangement and hope and not an endless cycle of blood.

Hey Elm, long time no see, I hope ur doin well
I know what ur talking about, people have the right to speak their minds
whether they agreed with us or not, I do respect that but why would they
want me to see things through their own lenses? I can’t see what this debate
(the arab-israeli conflicts) has to do with sexism. Why to accuse someone of
being afraid of women, why to offend others? is this how we shud prove our
points of view? I would be very happy if each one of these ”debaters” have
expressed his own ideas in an article or poem or whatever to share his
opinions with the world. It doesn’t matter if we agree with each other, what
matters is how we see things and how we discuss them. I don’t expect people
to agree with me, if people rejected Moses’, Jesus’ and Muhammed’s Godly
messages then how would they agree with me?
I just hope that some people get lil bit civilized and express their
opinions the way u did :)
Express ur opinion, argue but with reasons and great of all with RESPECT. I
know u well elm and i know exactly how u feel/think so my advice to u in
this blog is .. don’t get involved in some ”debates” just express ur mind
and try to benefit ur time in something more befeficial. I’m looking for ur
posts and I’m tracking ya from now on ... (*winks)
and for that sweet jewish who felt like appologyzing to the palestinians, in
my whole life i liked one jewish that is Harold Pinter and he died last
week, I guess i gonna like u too for ur sensitivity and ur honesty. Its just
ironic how some people condemn the shameful acts of Israel where non-israeli
ppl defend it. Such irony can’t be found but in one of Pinter’s plays.
peace out!!

I like coming to your page and reading your articles.
They are very nice.
My father always used to encourage me to read. He said reading means you know who you are, who others are, where you should situate yourself in this world, what’s happening around you
and
what you should do to change it.
He was right.
Cool, huh?

Am I the only person to have noticed that Marco Villa very rarely responds to comments by women? Even when those comments agree with his opinions?
Nope, he prefers talking to men, by and large.
Don’t believe me? Scroll back through the page and see for yourselves....and not only on this post.
Not only that, Hassan Rivzi, notorious for his tolerance of women (cf) is the same!!!
All of which has nothing to do with a post I wrote recently and which was well (well, almost too well) commented. I was just wondering how to finish off the post, because it was all going round in circles, when a Certain Woman asked a certain question, to a guy with views like those held here, and, Lo and Behold, NOT ONE MORE WORD!!!
Emancipated women, you are the future for us all.....
Conclusion? I think macho racist men are afraid of women.
As I said, scroll back up and see.....
Western men...there is an opportunity here.

You’re so stupid. I do not ever consider the sex of the individual when I respond. So, what you think I am misogynist now? or afraid of women?
And for the record, not that I need to make this point, but I have responded to numerous women.

Hello Mohammed, and I hope you’re well.
Thanks for asking that question, which I am only too happy to answer.
You see, there have been much too many racist articles on the site recently, and I, along with some other people, have decided to tackle their authors head on.
We don’t see why this kind of stuff should be called ”opinion”. It’s not opinion, it’s racism.
We go from article to article, ridiculising their authors and comments calling for the destruction of Israel, the demonisation of the West etc. which we find offensive.
We have the right to write too, and answer them.
We have noticed that, when you take these people on, they don’t like it. That’s because they don’t mind saying racist things about the west and jews, but don’t like it when it comes back at them.
They like ”free speech” to insult others but not being victims of it.
This site is not a one-way mouthpiece for racism. This phenomena is being challenged, and shall continue to be challenged.
Part of that, as some on this page have unforunately seen, is to do the same as them, but harder. Sort of a dose of their own medecine.
No-one likes doing this, but certain articles and comments published recently deserve to be shot down in flames, and that’s what’s happening. Kind of ”see how you like it yourself” thing.
As for this post goes, enough is enough, I agree.
I hope all this stops as soon as possible. Believe me.
this short and very funny video sums it all up very well. It’s an ad showing how to deal with children throwing tantrums.
Enjoy!!
Peace to you Mohammed.

well that post offended me too and i don’t think such racist comments can be
forgiven. As a muslim, I’m used to such ”insults” I have been accused of
hating my mom by some ignorants before, they just assumed that because i’m a
muslim. Anyways, the point is .. for the first time I regret coming to this
blog and I don’t know if i can come here again or not. I don’t like to
ignore people so pls don’t comment on me, if u did then don’t expect a reply
from me, I don’t like to talk to people like you.

Taha, I don’t know you and I am not asking you for forgiveness.
My comments and apologies were to someone else so I couldn’t possibly understand what your comments are about.
I am not racist. I couldn’t possibly be... I am Ironic and have used the surrounding reality of an individual against her comments. There is no racist content to my argument.
If you don’t reply, better. I don’t have time for sentimental spin downs... Need a shoulder? get someone else.

Mohamed, if you can’t forgive, why should I!!
I am trying to stop people insulting people in my way. When it stops, I shall forgive and forget, of course.
Can’t you?
If you can’t, and no-one else does too, we are all in one big mess, my friend.
Please reconsider. It is elegant to apologise, but very inelegant not to forgive, don’t you think?
All religions teach forgiveness as a fundamental part of spiritual developement.....
And no-one is exempt.

——I am really sad that some commentators can stoop down to any level to gain an upper hand.Even send private abusive mails.Is that’s the way to participate in a serious issue like this ?
Surprisingly,this has become a trend pattern on IB.In fact, all the serious debates have become a medium to manifest ”king-size” egos. We make a good beginning but ultimately the whole debate gets reduced to such stupid level.What’s the point in trashing one’s persona? I just want to know that is INSTABLOGS reserved for all-perfect souls ?How many of us really are incarnations of perfectness ?
I mean who has given them the license to shut other person’s mouth on flimsy grounds ?If anyone is young or ,for that matter, does not have a proper command over language loses the right to say anything on IB or anywhere? Why are we all the time ridiculing one’s background ?
SHOCKING.HEIGHT OF ABSURDITY.

Yes, this is a very funny statement. But I am seriously serious. That means women are capable of doing only household work and are not intellectually capable of presenting arguments in a serious debate. Never underestimate the ability of a woman in a woman-oriented age ..ha..ha.
The petticoat influence is imperative for a sound progress.So if you are interested in achieving total perfection, you cannot do it without these so-called dull headed women….ha..ha.

” I wonder why I can’t find a place on Earth where Muslims are living in peace right now.”

”Muslims can’t leave in peace anywhere

”Now, go bend to West”
”I find myself some time to reply to Bedouin with laptops”
”What you know of Justice, you blind cow!”

I did not name-call. I did not start it there. I was insulted and offended. And everything I said about my students speaking better than that memeber was a fact. Yes, my students never speak that way. You did not quote everything directed to me and also some other members.
Anyway, you’re right. We should avoid such arguments and try to focus on bringing facts to support whatever we believe better than offending to defend.
My apologies if I crossed the line there. And I will just ignore such people next time

Muslims are a growing presence in the West. Islam is the fastest growing religion in Europe and America. Every year tens of thousands of Americans convert to Islam.
Once Muslims achieve strong political power, Israel’s last defenders will be no more.
Your special relationship with America will end, as will all aid and trade.
You know this fact, that Islam is going to dominate and it installs fear in you. Enjoy the support from the US while you got it, soon it will be a distant memory.
Israel is doomed.

It would be great to see an end to the Israeli massacre of Palestinian people. It is skeletish when people promote racist ideas much like in Nazi Germany. All forms of rejection is ridiculously annoying. It is also skeletish when people hate me for being Jewish or gay. All forms of prejudice is unjust. All humans should be treated equal. Racism, homophobia, sexism, discrimination against people with disabilities, anti-semetism, etc. are all equally evil.

Muslims in Gaza are being massacred by those who are occupying their land. And you’re saying ”we” know how annoying a Palestinian can be. There is no we here. If you enjoy seeing people dying, and justify all these acts of terrorism against Palestinians, then it is your choice to choose not be human. But please do not speak for me or my fellow humans.
And as for Saudi Arabia, it is not the major problem. But I admit It plays a role in this like all Arab countries that choose to be puppets of the USA government which is the major problem.
And by the way those Arab leaders including the Saudi royals who see Muslims being massacred but choose to ignore do not speak for me.

Please spare me of this basic twist of words. There are people dying everywhere. Its called civilization. social adjustment is part of being Human as you call it.
I am not saying that Palestinians deserve this fate. On many occasions I have said that both countries are totally wrong and the fact that Palestine has initiate attacks against Israel show they are stupid. Very stupid. It also reinforce my and many others believe that Muslims can’t leave in peace anywhere.
State over religion! Always! The common good of a population is more important to be protected that ideologies, especially those reinforced by tribalistic beliefs where ignorance and dogma are held together.
I am not speaking for you. I never did. Your country finance terrorism and mine suffers the consequences of it. we cannot be possibly be looking through the same angle at all. And if you are against Saudi policies as you claim, you probably do it quietly. Afraid of the same forces that I am here against.
As for the how Palestinians can be annoying, ask any Australian and New Zealander who suffer the discriminatory chants and bad manners of ”Palestinians ” living here, saying bad thing of our women, wives and mothers alike, because we chose to be free of religion blindness and live our lives as just civilized beings.
Yes, the world is tired of so much nagging and religious tolerance. Yes, the Indians are tired of Pakistan. and all the other reasons I can find to argue, only comes down to one answer. The maturity of Islam as a religion and not as a state.
Show us that Islam can live in peace. Show us that Palestinians can work and stop to find excuses. Find an Arab father who will stop his son of throwing stones at Israeli tanks and finally, find me a Saudi who will talk of Humanity inside Mosques without have their tongues cut.
Then, we may can talk at same level. Until it happens, I will be entitled to raise my opinion focusing the issue as a whole without wonder of the stupid sidelines that Middle-Eastern media wants to use against Israel.
Yes, Israel has many faults. They may not be the most polite and educated people on Earth, but if Palestine has the right to attack, so does Israel of retaliating. If it was me, I would...

My apologies as a Jew in the Israeli massacre of Palestinian people in Gaza
I, as a Jewish humanist socialist, gay-rights activist, disabled-rights activist would like to apologize personally to the Palestinian people and other Muslim friends, to the massacre and destruction that is going on right now in Gaza, Palestine. It is a tragedy what is happening right now with more Palestinians dying and suffering in Gaza. I pray that Israel will stop her bombing and siege of Gaza. I hope that your families are safe.
May our friendship and peace grow between Palestine and Israel. May we bring hope and light in this time of sorrow in the darkness of Zionist evil.
Salaam and shalom to you all,
Lyle Lexier

Thanks for your kind words toward the Palestinians.
But you do not have to apologize, you’re not responsible for the attack. Only the IDF is.
This might interest you, 500 residents in Sderot have signed a petition calling for an end to the Israeli attack:
The period of clam change the lives of the people of Sderot, Ashkelon and the region beyond recognition, allowing all of us to experience again a life that is more normal and sane. The continuation of this calm is essential and criticial to the residents of the region from every possible aspect: physical, mental, spiritual and economic.
Another round of escalation may break our already brittle spirit, and take us all to another round of self-destruction and pointless bloodshed. It is not certain that we will survive. And you must be aware of that, if you indeed care about the residents of this area. We’ve been through this movie too many years–and results speak for themselves: feeling trapped, abandonment, and hopelessness for us and our children!
On the other side of the border live a million and a half Palestinians under unbearable conditions, and most of them want, like we do, calm and the opportunity of a future for themselves and their families.
We live in the feeling that you have wasted that period of calm, instead of using it to advance understandings and begin negotiations, as well as for fortifying the houses of residents as promised.
We call on the Prime Minister and the Defense minister not to listen to the voices of incitement and do everything they can to avoid another round of escalation, to secure the continuation of the calm and to work...towards direct or indirect negotiations with the Palestinian leadership in Gaza in order to reach long term understandings.
We prefer a cold war without a single rocket to a hot war with dozens of victims and innocent fatalities on both sides.
We ask you to offer us the possibility of political arrangement and hope and not an endless cycle of blood.

Hello Sanwali,
We ALL pray.....?”
Are you sure?
Who are ”WE”? Who are ”ALL”?
Please read on.
”You know this fact, that Islam is going to dominate and it installs fear in you. Enjoy the support from the US while you got it, soon it will be a distant memory.
Israel is doomed.”
(MARCO VILLA) On this page.
”The time is not far when Israel would surely reap the fate it deserves.isn’t it true as you sow so shall you reap?”
(HASSAN RIVZI) On this page.
Well Sanwali, with people like this ”defending” Gaza from the comfort of their homes in other parts of the world, you’d better start hoping for more peaceful prayers and ”hard work”
from Gaza’s so called ”supporters”.
These people are no more than incendiary, anarchist, and intellectually lazy, parasititical purveyers of hate.

Well yes you do.
Because YOU, sir, given the worn-out, virulent, tired, bitter, nostalgic, old and repetitive cynicsm that you somehow contrive to call ”opinion”, seem to me, with all due respect, to be what I would be tempted to call

Insulting huh? Makes you mad huh?
Well, this is where you learn that racism, sexism (oh don’t worry, I’ve read your opinions on women), ageism, and all the other isms that you seem to revel in are one-and-the-same-thing and are ok as long as YOU’RE not being targeted. Well now you ARE being targeted.

”Obviously” is a strong word for you... Let’s say that I am someone with far more qualifications and life experience than you and the Saudi combined.
Not just on my argumentation but my willingness to speak freely of any religious intolerance.
Hassan and Almaha, unless you have anything constructive to add in regards this debate, I see no reason why I should provide personal details of my being.
Once again, fallacy. You both are incapable to come up with reasonable explanations or at least a proper discussion to this topic.
Now, go bend to West...

Hi Almaha,
”Hassan Rizvi
Yeah bro I know, just wanted it to be confirmed :p”
I would just like to say that
1. I totally understand the anger and injustice you feel (and that’s not just words, go to my page, click on comments given, or my posts) for the Palestinian people. I feel the same things.
BUT
What with
2. ”Bro’s” like Hassan (bourgois and retired civil servant preaching the death of Israel from an armchair thousands of miles away)
And
Marco Villa (”Concerned American” but apparently, him too, living thousands of miles from where it’s at, and too ”American” to go and put his money and his life where his mouth is)
And
Nice upper-class well-fed and impeccably dressed students in Jakarta Indonesia calling for the world to ”wipe off (wipe ”out”, but their english is appalling)Israel and Zionism” (would you REALLY want to be one of them?)
You have a problem.
Yep, and your problem is, that with ”Bro’s” like those, you certainly do NOT need enemies.
They are my enemies though.
Because they are the enemies of peace. They are the proponents of violence.
They don’t give a shit about the Palestinian people.
I may be ”just” a Westerner” to you, but, believe me, I want peace for Palestine, Israel, and everyone else, more than this rabble-rousing bunch of intellectual renegades.
Get real, Almaha. Please.
Respect.

It’s not even a debate. Everything you said is based on stupid assumptions and generalizations. And to be honest the sixth graders I teach speak better than you, and that’s why I asked how old you were :p so I won’t waste my time arguing with kids or even those whose minds are controlled by their biased media.

If Hassan, Marco, and the Indonesian students are the enemies of peace, you are the enemy of justice.
And you do not tell me who I want to be with and who is an enemy here and who is not. This is very childish.
Also, you said that you might be just a westerner to me. You are isolating yourself now. I do not care where you or others are from. I’m not someone who generalizes or stereotypes.
So ’get real’

I like coming to your page and reading your articles.
They are very nice.
My father always used to encourage me to read. He said reading means you know who you are, who others are, where you should situate yourself in this world, what’s happening around you
and
what you should do to change it.
He was right.
Cool, huh?

Am I the only person to have noticed that Marco Villa very rarely responds to comments by women? Even when those comments agree with his opinions?
Nope, he prefers talking to men, by and large.
Don’t believe me? Scroll back through the page and see for yourselves....and not only on this post.
Not only that, Hassan Rivzi, notorious for his tolerance of women (cf) is the same!!!
All of which has nothing to do with a post I wrote recently and which was well (well, almost too well) commented. I was just wondering how to finish off the post, because it was all going round in circles, when a Certain Woman asked a certain question, to a guy with views like those held here, and, Lo and Behold, NOT ONE MORE WORD!!!
Emancipated women, you are the future for us all.....
Conclusion? I think macho racist men are afraid of women.
As I said, scroll back up and see.....
Western men...there is an opportunity here.

I don’t understand, what made you so angry michael.
Anyway...when i saw the pictures of the dead children in Gaza, i felt bad. Children have nothing to do with wars. I hope you agree with this statement as you yourself has a kid.
If Israel leader dies in the war or Hamas leader dies, that is justified(according to me), as they are the ones who started this.
I still pray that the sufferings of the innocent citizens soon comes to an end.
No offense :)

Hey Elm, long time no see, I hope ur doin well
I know what ur talking about, people have the right to speak their minds
whether they agreed with us or not, I do respect that but why would they
want me to see things through their own lenses? I can’t see what this debate
(the arab-israeli conflicts) has to do with sexism. Why to accuse someone of
being afraid of women, why to offend others? is this how we shud prove our
points of view? I would be very happy if each one of these ”debaters” have
expressed his own ideas in an article or poem or whatever to share his
opinions with the world. It doesn’t matter if we agree with each other, what
matters is how we see things and how we discuss them. I don’t expect people
to agree with me, if people rejected Moses’, Jesus’ and Muhammed’s Godly
messages then how would they agree with me?
I just hope that some people get lil bit civilized and express their
opinions the way u did :)
Express ur opinion, argue but with reasons and great of all with RESPECT. I
know u well elm and i know exactly how u feel/think so my advice to u in
this blog is .. don’t get involved in some ”debates” just express ur mind
and try to benefit ur time in something more befeficial. I’m looking for ur
posts and I’m tracking ya from now on ... (*winks)
and for that sweet jewish who felt like appologyzing to the palestinians, in
my whole life i liked one jewish that is Harold Pinter and he died last
week, I guess i gonna like u too for ur sensitivity and ur honesty. Its just
ironic how some people condemn the shameful acts of Israel where non-israeli
ppl defend it. Such irony can’t be found but in one of Pinter’s plays.
peace out!!

Hello Mohammed, and I hope you’re well.
Thanks for asking that question, which I am only too happy to answer.
You see, there have been much too many racist articles on the site recently, and I, along with some other people, have decided to tackle their authors head on.
We don’t see why this kind of stuff should be called ”opinion”. It’s not opinion, it’s racism.
We go from article to article, ridiculising their authors and comments calling for the destruction of Israel, the demonisation of the West etc. which we find offensive.
We have the right to write too, and answer them.
We have noticed that, when you take these people on, they don’t like it. That’s because they don’t mind saying racist things about the west and jews, but don’t like it when it comes back at them.
They like ”free speech” to insult others but not being victims of it.
This site is not a one-way mouthpiece for racism. This phenomena is being challenged, and shall continue to be challenged.
Part of that, as some on this page have unforunately seen, is to do the same as them, but harder. Sort of a dose of their own medecine.
No-one likes doing this, but certain articles and comments published recently deserve to be shot down in flames, and that’s what’s happening. Kind of ”see how you like it yourself” thing.
As for this post goes, enough is enough, I agree.
I hope all this stops as soon as possible. Believe me.
this short and very funny video sums it all up very well. It’s an ad showing how to deal with children throwing tantrums.
Enjoy!!
Peace to you Mohammed.

My comments and apologies were to someone else so I couldn’t possibly understand what your comments are about.
I am not racist. I couldn’t possibly be... I am Ironic and have used the surrounding reality of an individual against her comments. There is no racist content to my argument.
If you don’t reply, better. I don’t have time for sentimental spin downs... Need a shoulder? get someone else.

Mohamed, if you can’t forgive, why should I!!
I am trying to stop people insulting people in my way. When it stops, I shall forgive and forget, of course.
Can’t you?
If you can’t, and no-one else does too, we are all in one big mess, my friend.
Please reconsider. It is elegant to apologise, but very inelegant not to forgive, don’t you think?
All religions teach forgiveness as a fundamental part of spiritual developement.....
And no-one is exempt.

Siddesh, I am someone who hates racist thought. If you really mean what you say, then you too are part of the problem.
My comments here have been violent, scathing, ironic, maybe even insulting in some people’s eyes. I have even given people a dose of their own medecine to see how THEY feel being at the receiving end, but I have not indulged in insulting muslims as such, their religion as such or their culture as such.
I may get very angry with PEOPLE, or what they say, but nothing else.
People may not appreciate my approach, but I cannot be said to be a racist.
I hope you aren’t either...
I don’t like racism. Be it written by a friend or foe of Islam or Judaism or anyone else.
It cuts both ways. You can’t choose what is ”good” or ”bad” racism. It’s ALL bad.
If this is a serious comment Siddesh, I DO NOT LIKE IT!!!

Thank you Mohammed Taha:)
Do not regret being here because of those who just offend if they cannot provide proof or facts to support whatever they believe.
We can ignore:D
I will be visiting your blog inshaAllah.
See you around

”And to be honest the sixth graders I teach speak better than you, and that’s why I asked how old you were :p so I won’t waste my time arguing with kids or even those whose minds are controlled by their biased media.”
”go cook your husbands some eggs before your community stone you to death...”
——I am really sad that some commentators can stoop down to any level to gain an upper hand.Even send private abusive mails.Is that’s the way to participate in a serious issue like this ?
Surprisingly,this has become a trend pattern on IB.In fact, all the serious debates have become a medium to manifest ”king-size” egos. We make a good beginning but ultimately the whole debate gets reduced to such stupid level.What’s the point in trashing one’s persona? I just want to know that is INSTABLOGS reserved for all-perfect souls ?How many of us really are incarnations of perfectness ?
I mean who has given them the license to shut other person’s mouth on flimsy grounds ?If anyone is young or ,for that matter, does not have a proper command over language loses the right to say anything on IB or anywhere? Why are we all the time ridiculing one’s background ?
SHOCKING.HEIGHT OF ABSURDITY.
Please learn to argue with facts,with a right mindset and ,of course, remain in league with issue at hand !!!

”go cook your husbands some eggs before your community stone you to death...”
Yes, this is a very funny statement. But I am seriously serious. That means women are capable of doing only household work and are not intellectually capable of presenting arguments in a serious debate. Never underestimate the ability of a woman in a woman-oriented age ..ha..ha.
The petticoat influence is imperative for a sound progress.So if you are interested in achieving total perfection, you cannot do it without these so-called dull headed women….ha..ha.

Maybe you should have quoted these that were directed to me.
” I wonder why I can’t find a place on Earth where Muslims are living in peace right now.”
” Saudi Arabia is the major reason for this turmoil... I can’t wait until the oil finishes”
”Muslims can’t leave in peace anywhere
find me a Saudi who will talk of Humanity inside Mosques without have their tongues cut”
”Now, go bend to West”
”I find myself some time to reply to Bedouin with laptops”
”What you know of Justice, you blind cow!”
”Here, food for your brain... cow!
Please Almaha, don’t waste your time with me or others... in fact, go cook your husbands some eggs before your community stone you to death...”
And you found this funny Arvind:)

I did not name-call. I did not start it there. I was insulted and offended. And everything I said about my students speaking better than that memeber was a fact. Yes, my students never speak that way. You did not quote everything directed to me and also some other members.
Anyway, you’re right. We should avoid such arguments and try to focus on bringing facts to support whatever we believe better than offending to defend.
My apologies if I crossed the line there. And I will just ignore such people next time

”I was insulted and offended”...And that’s why I said I am in great pain the way people have chosen to react on this post.I didn’t quote all infamous words,the one ”directed to Almaha”, because that would have meant saying all those things again besides that would have made the comment unnecessary long.
”And you found this funny Arvind:”—I hope you have interpreted my comment in a right way!!The purport of whole comment was to prevent women commentators from undignified approach of some commentators who are otherwise very much bothered about ”sexism”!!!!

Arvind:
First, my comment here was sent by mistake.I wanted it to be on another article where you made me and Robbie at the same level. It was not fair.And I said that in my defense.
Second,you shouldn’t have commented if you could not be fair.
It was not necessary cause I forgot about it but I had to clarify there since you quoted me.
No more comments for me here.

I have been away for a week;but am delighted to see that Michael and co have been having the times of their lives accusing a lady of being what ever they so obviously display them selves to be in their comments.
Michael;you angry half British ,half German confused English teacher living in France and teaching the French your brilliant language-and manners;isn’t it time you learned some culture from the French-or is it your spiritualism is so egoistic -it doesn’t leave you any time for understanding what other people feel or say -or teach!!?You teacher who feels he needs to learn nothing!!!
Ref Incognito’s comments:”Because they are cowards..” and yours:”You are so GOURgeous!! ”.Well Michael in case you don’t know you are the ’cowards’ and not me.You proved it by your complete insensitivity to the crimes against a civilian population that the Zionists are indulging in-and incase you do not know the difference between a Zionist and a real Jew read the comments of Lyle Lexier on this very post.Brother Lyle Lexier my Shaloms(Salams) to you.
It is not cowardice to speak up for justice and against the genocide of civilian population!!! You are worse then a Zionist.
...And Michael you in particular are a coward for another reason too.You love to post inflamatory comments which are generally shorn of any logic or wisdom at me all over the place.But when I engage you one to one anytime.Like I did the last time ,you start complaining of you fingers aching from typing and start yelling for help.
Last time on you asking, I called it a peace.but I see now that I have been away for a week you have put it to good use!!!This time it will be according to your standards -and my gloves will be off too.
Let me know any time you want a re start ,you product of a justice hating,women exploiting ,dollar loving society.

Almaha,
Salams sister,I will post an article on what Islam does for women today.This is in response to brainless people like Michael and co who asked me what my so called brilliant and democratic Islam did for women.I hope these people can understand and then engage in a sensible debate on the issue...Yet I know what they will do :)@&^%$ *&@#$%^

We all pray for the people in Gaza and hope, peace soon prevail there.
We ALL pray.....?”
Are you sure?
Who are ”WE”? Who are ”ALL”?
Please read on.
”You know this fact, that Islam is going to dominate and it installs fear in you. Enjoy the support from the US while you got it, soon it will be a distant memory.
Israel is doomed.”
(MARCO VILLA) On this page.
”The time is not far when Israel would surely reap the fate it deserves.isn’t it true as you sow so shall you reap?”
(HASSAN RIVZI) On this page.
Well Sanwali, with people like this ”defending” Gaza from the comfort of their homes in other parts of the world, you’d better start hoping for more peaceful prayers and ”hard work”
from Gaza’s so called ”supporters”.
These people are no more than incendiary, anarchist, and intellectually lazy, parasititical purveyers of hate.

I prefer this.
”We prefer a cold war without a single rocket to a hot war with dozens of victims and innocent fatalities on both sides.
We ask you to offer us the possibility of political arrangement and hope and not an endless cycle of blood.”
(Said by residents of Sderot, Israel, and cynically quoted by MARCO VILLA as some sort of perverted argument to support peace whilst at the same time wanting the end of Israel. SICKENING).
Oh, and why wasn’t he able to quote PALESTINIANS who are saying the same thing?
(But we don’t ask questions like THAT, now do we....)
Peace (and I MEAN peace, to Palestinians and Israelis alike)
This site needs cleaning up.
Anyway...when i saw the pictures of the dead children in Gaza, i felt bad. Children have nothing to do with wars. I hope you agree with this statement as you yourself has a kid.
If Israel leader dies in the war or Hamas leader dies, that is justified(according to me), as they are the ones who started this.
I still pray that the sufferings of the innocent citizens soon comes to an end.
No offense :)
Yes I am angry, but not with you or your wishes. On the contrary, I agree with EVERY word you say. Each and every one.
No, my anger is turned to those who are trying to throw petrol on an already blazing inferno.
To those who do not wish for peace. They are the people I described in my previous comment......
Respect.....
