No bro, that was an old video clip potraying them to be happy at the attacks, the media can make anybody look criminal. It was prooved, however, that that video thy played was footage from many years before, it was convienient to their agenda to play it then.

Its not a matter of blame the Jews, no its more of a reality of the Israel lobby and their p.r's pulling the strings within the media machine.

Have a look at:

CNN did not air decade-old footage of Palestinians dancing in the streets.

Some times the truth hurts.

So pardon me when I can't scrounge up any sympathy for the Palestinians (actually, I think it was more than just the Palestinians who danced). You could say that maybe Afghanistan 'had it coming', also.

You are free to feel or think as you may. But the truth remains American policy was the case 911 happened. Now american policy has made soo many enemies around the world. I believe innocent civilians in any part of the world dont derserve to be killed. I disagree with all the 911 attacks all ways the target should be military. America has helped the people who did 911 by going around killing more civilians. America is responsible for killing thousands of palestians civilians. Palestians only danced on street that day was because they themselves could never attack america back or fight back. As they are really weak because of the so called muslim government.

What a great bunch. 3,000 inocents die and they dance.
I have never danced at anyone's death.
But then I don't live to hate.

Yep thats what happens when you kill one group of people in mass numbers. Eventually they will fight back in any way possible. If you were living in a refugee camp with your dad death or in prison. Your younger sisters leg broken because of a tank and your mom beaten by soldiers. And if you knew that america was responsible you too would dance maybe. You can deny it rigth now because you dont live in that condition.
 
Fighting back and rejoyceing at the death of inocents are two different things. At least by my "Moral Compass". Yours must point in a different direction.
 
We can not control how others will treat us. But we all should have control over how we treat others.

When things are all said and done. I will not be required to explain how and why Mr. A did something to Mr.C. But, I will need to show why I did or did not do anything to all other people.

Let us not worry about the sins of others, unless we have the ability to prevent the sin. And remember committing a sin is not the way to eliminate a sin that is done against us.
 
Is it not true that had it not have been for those MINUTE fundamentalists who say they are waging a holy war, this controversy of the horrid cartoons and this much hatred for the beloved prophet (SAW) would not have existed????
I say with the help of Allah the almighty we should take some responsibilities and stand together and defend Islam from our own kind before we blame the Dhaaleen, for they have Allah to face and we have a duty upon us to stop our brothers in leading the ummah astray and to stop the confusion of weither or not these are the real teaching of our beloved prophet Muhammed (SAW).

I think the issue you raised is an important one. There is a cause and effect to everything. Obviously Al-Qaeda and terrorist organizations don't represent Islam(at least I hope it is obvious), but when people around the world see videos on television of self-proclaimed Muslims beheading people and yelling "God is great" it is going to have an impact on how Islam is perceived, there is no way around it. Personally, I notice that many Muslims are more angry at the fact the video is shown at all, moreso than anger at those who created them. It is almost a form of denial at what impact extremists are having on their lives in the West and elsewhere. That denial makes some people point to a CIA cover-up and other conspiracies so they won't have to accept it. Which I can understand. If a Christian terrorist group started kidnapping Muslims, beheading them, and sent the videos to the media, I would be the first to say "These are not Christians". However, this is obviously going to have an impact on how Muslims view Christianity. I can imagine the number of threads that would be devoted to denouncing Christianity. I don't have the answer, but nothing is as simple as some would make it out to be.

the prophet (saw) was ridiculed when he was alive, he was stoned when he was alive and ppl plotted agasint islam when he was alive. So the hatred was there and will always be there b4 and after the fundamentalists.
Dont make it look like the "fundamentalist" caused the hatred.

What u can say is that the "fundamentalist" maybe fueled the hatred and gave some ppl justification in their hatred., but the hatred would always be there.

I would also like to point out the Islam and Muslims were not the only ones who were hated before the attacks and recent events. Hate has been around since the beginning of man. Christians, Jews, Buddhist, Muslims everyone has always been hated by some person or some group. I guess my point is that the hate was dramatically increased after all of the recent events. (by certain groups of people) I personally dont hate anyone, although i hate the actions of some.
