What are your fellow muslims exactly doing in my Island? (OP)
This is just meant as an honest question, no offense intended but...
I do have to ask you guys why are you coming to my Island and my hometown for?
The reasons for asking this will become clear so please bear with me...
This is the mosque that your fellow correligionaires whom most are from Palestine and Jordan and whom for the most part speak neither English nor Spanish have built using money from Saudi Arabia and a few well stablsihed wealthy palestinians such as the owner of El Amal Pharmacies Saleh Yassin.
Now the question is since they do not speak either of the main languages and can't hold jobs why are they here for? Why are the Saudis and the few Wealthy palestinians paying not just for the building of mosques but for the housing, food etc. of muslims brought from the aforementioned places?
Now that the reasons behind me asking are clear can anyone here give an answer?
Thx...
Posting images of radicals holding up signs isn't a good way to prove a point about the whole of the Muslim world. It is no more effective than posting images of neo-nazis and claiming that represents the whole of the "white" race. I understand your concern(Soy) about some of the Muslim community in the West, but attacking the faith isn't going to get you constructive responses....if that is what you are indeed looking for.

I believe this thread requires a clean up.
(p.s; I don't have moderation power in this section, so am unable to do so myself)
Yes it does. Or just be closed all together. This is just a thread for people to fight and sling insults which in my opinion isn't very Islamic or Christian.
In hopes of getting this back on topic I will ask the same question again because it has still gone unanswered.........how do you know they are getting all of their money from the Suadis?

I never said they are getting all of their money from the Saudis I said most of the money that supports them come from there the rest probably comes from thr few wealthy palestinians that live here but only a fraction at best.
I see that you have a quote from Edmund Burke in your SIG which happens to be my favorite quote.
The truth is Islam is a religion in deep, deep trouble and the sooner muslims realize this the better is for everyone. And if you cannot see this you are as much part of the problem as they are as long as they do not accept this...
You have that quote but you do not live by it, I on the other hand do...
How is this image supporting his stand? lol you have a Western Mother teaching her kid western superiority over other groups and you have a Eastern mother teaching her kid so-called ''terrorism''
we all know this is ridicilous since the majority of Western mothers don't teach their kids to look down on other groups regarding bloody historical incidents and the majority of Eastern Mothers don't teach their children to grab a grenade and throw it at non muslims
i wonder why this ''garbage'' is even allowed on here, it really lowers the standard of this forum
You should really look again because what the western mother is actually telling her kid is to remember what they did in the past to all thiose groups so that he should be mindful and tolerant toward them in contrast to what the muslim woman is teaching her son...

Are you equating Islam with evil? If you are you should be ashamed for doing so. As an American I'm as concerned with terrorism as you are, but I've been around the world enough to know that Islam isn't evil, people are.

No what I'm saying is that what is happening nowadays within Islam, it's current curriculums being spread around mosques worldwide from Saudi Arabia is evil.
Re: What are your fellow muslims exactly doing in my Island?
Dont say Islam, say Muslims. There is nothing wrong with Islam, it is Muslims who need a serious shape up. Current curriculums or old. Its ideas do not change. If change comes in anything, it is the Muslims themselves.

Hmmmmmmmmmn fascinating... as are your other posts!
Why don't you enlist and go fight in Iraq or Afghanistan? better than working in a gas station and reducing yourself to shameless insults on a forum? I am sure you'll be declared as celebrity or a local hero for your efforts!
Might also prove to be a humbling experience, we also hope it will improve your vocabulary (its) not (it is) as well as your other ill conceived world views?...
There is 1.8 billion Muslims and if we are all in deep trouble we'd want one soy burrito telling us live, instead of hiding behind the sour cream!
I think this post has meandered all over the place and it is time on of the moderators closed it. I must admit however that I have never seen a member to have a negative reputation beneath their name.... which has been the single most interesting factor in his posts thus far
I really don't understand why other members still continue to humor this fellow?

Ok so how do you know where they are getting money from?

Islam is a religion of peace. SOME people have distorted that and turned it into something it is not. If these are the only people you know then I am very sorry for the fact that you haven't seen the other side that is really beautiful. All of the muslims I know personally and many here on this board know this. It is the same you go anywhere, some people will be good and some will be bad. But to herd them all under one banner that says terrorist on it is very closed minded.
You have that quote but you do not live by it, I on the other hand do...
You have no idea how I live so please do not assume that you do. Thanks!

This is no different from what Christianity went thru in the dark ages...
The truth is no religion can be above criticism. Without it the results are always catastrophic!
Please PM the Grand Mufti that us Muslims in the US seem to be missing this support he is supposed to be sending us Muslims. Also us US Muslims seem to be missing out on the oil royalties also. OOOps, Puerto Ricans are US Citizens. Odd that the Grand Mufti would be supporting some Americans.
The only money I am aware of that Saudi Arabia has sent to the US was for support of the NON-MUSLIM victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Re: What are your fellow muslims exactly doing in my Island?
I know for a fact it is not the government because if that were the case they would be living in public housing projects instead of the suburbs where most of them live...
But that doesn't mean that it is Saudi money. It could be from anywhere...
But the fact is and remains that Islam is in trouble. Just as much trouble as Christianity was during the dark ages but with the added problem of modern weaponry including nukes thrown in...
Humanity is in trouble. It isn't just muslims that are killing people ya know

The mosques you have around have been for the most part built with Saudi money. The curriculums that are thought are theirs as well...

Well it cannot be the Colombian Cartels, Nor Castro or Chavez so that only leaves the Saudi's who are the only ones that have not only the means but the interest that if they built mosques they need to bring people to fill them with now don't they?

But they are the only ones killing in the name of their religion especifically...
