the same goes with Illegal Immigrants, they are not ALL bad people.
Perhaps in Europe, but most likely not in the United States. BTW what makes you think Middle Eastern terrorists exemplify the Muslim religion? It would be the equivalent of accusing every Christian like a follower of Jim Jones or David Koresh.

Maybe if we completely ignore the stupid, they'll eventually get bored talking to themselves.
Aww shucks . . .Wow . . every single thread you thumb s*uc*k*ers and crybabies post dedicated to me. Even an old man who has risen from the dead has come here, chimed in and began idolizing me. Now he's impressive, the rest of you, not . .
Here I thought only Jes-us could rise from the dead . . .
Too bad your opinions of me have about as much value as the toilet paper I wipe my lady bits with. If any of you mattered . . . I'd feel like a rock star.

As far as most Muslims go they are more afraid of us than we are of them. In many areas of the country where they congregate there is a sense of embarrassment and need to explain themselves. We all know the truth. The people (loosely used) who are terrorists are easily brain washed due to no education. Most religions have a similar dark page of history. Remember the crusades?
4Now, the term Pollack is not derogatory. Its what they call themselves. I would like to see a fly evolve into an elephant. That would be something to watch. Where do I buy a ticket for that? Or was that her way of telling us she is a Godless heathen. Here is a challenge. Show me a cromozone that has the capability of independent thought. And, that it can pass instructions to its offspring to modify their predefined sequences for adaptability to a new environment. That should be easy. I'm not even asking for a new species just an adaption.
Vote Republican and this country will still be worth sneaking into.

Who can forget the crusades.. Just look at Jr. Bush who has actually revived the Crusades.
But in anyway.. I have to totally disagree with everything you have said above.. especially the no education part . Very few people anywhere come as educated and affluent as Osama Bin Laden.
Terrorist is a mindset. Muslims (which has nothing to do with being a terrorist)are not afraid per say of the usa. keep believing/thinking like that.. and that is why 911 was a shocker.
USA raised up Bin Laden, just like they raised up Sadaam, and all the rest all over the world... then they make them public enemy #1 when some deal goes bad.
Muslims are not embarrassed. they are peaceable people with an humble manner. they are not embarrased. do not be mislead in your thinking.
remember Khadafi of Libya? Enemy #1 and now he is our friend again. BTW who is soooooooo educated and brilliant man. Many years ago when he was at height in his power he called 4all the arab nations to unite. They didnt listen to him and now are at mercy because they did not unite. Had they listened, Iraq would not have fallen prey. Lebanon would not have fallen prey. Make sure.. it will not happen to Iran. they will unite 4sure.
ok pollack is fine. good. Ha ha.. the evolution thing is private joke with me and iperson and reminiscent E. Those were the good old days.
Ok am not supporting anyone here or taking any sides but the N word was very disrespectful,i could not believe someone actually said that here.Let's try and get along people it's a new year!!

I wasn't so much referring to their leadership as I was the individuals who carry out the acts. They obviously have an agenda not at all based on religion and use their blind followers for said purpose.
I brought up evolution when I saw her post about flys and elephants. That was better than Jurassic park.

You are not thinking right Davdah. You are thinking like an american. 95% of the 911 hijackers were educated already in their countries. they were legally here on F-1 students. and they later enrolled in flying school here. Terrorist for the cause is not about education. It is the cause.
You are forgetting or maybe you do not know that many arab nations are highly educated peoples.
Look how many educated americans fall for the bunk and bull story of GW Bush regime. It makes you wonder .. And these are all educated people.
As I have promised, I will be on the board at least once in a business day and will reply to those who have raised issues.
Firstly, thanks to iperson for the thoughtful post of January 08, 2008 01:04 PM on this thread. I intend to give a detailed reply to this in a new thread in the next few business days.
Secondly, one of the forum posts by Babybeh on this thread of January 08, 2008 08:56 PM violates our policy on not using foul language. We have therefore suspended Babybeh from this forum.
While I agree with iperson's post above that we should develop a graduated policy, and I want to do so cooperatively with the users of this board, until such new policy is developed and in place, we will continue our old policy - which is to remove those who use foul language from the forum.
I request members of this board to please refrain from foul language once again. We will develop a policy along the lines of iperson's post above and we will do so collaboratively with all of you. But please be patient over the next few weeks as we move forward together. In the interim, if someone uses foul language, we will remove offenders from this forum. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
Davdah, Are you Polish? I didn't think so? Pollack=offensive when used by non-Polish. Nigga=used by some members of the African American race as term of endearment/brother/sisterhood=offensive when used by non-Black people.

Hudson please accept my apologies, I meant to say not all Arabs, muslims, middle easterns should be tarred with the same brush as the terrorists of 9/11 and the European Bombings.
As to Jim Jones or David Koresh, I do not know who they are, I am not a religious person myself, but I am not an Atheist either.
Sam, I am glad I could be of help. Keep up the good work.
4now, pollack is a derogatory term, equivalent to the N word. It is an english word used negatively, while Polak, is a polish word and is equivalent to American/German, etc. So much so for your hypocrisy Davdah.
I am a proud heart-bleeding tree-hugging latte-sipping urban-dwelling elitist progressive liberal.
You might want to take a closer look at another poster - Manali. I believe this person falls outside of the protection boundaries of the 1st amendment.
4now, when I said about people not being educated I guess I should have been a little more specific. Educated in their religeon is what I meant.
I wasn't aware of the spelling difference between Polak and Pollack menaing two different things. No 'N' word type references intended. But how could it be derogatory if used by non-polls?

From the neighbor to the chief of police used it (all polish). It was never in the tone of being derogatory. Maybe this is geography specific. Wasn't that way in western PA.
Did a search on both and in one place it says polak is disparaging. These guys need to get it straight what is and what isn't. This may be just another example of hypersensitivity.
