You can not say "I'm going to talk only about IRAN and ISRAEL" because they are not the only place muslims reside. I've said it again and again. Generalization.

If you want to continue this discussion, discuss everything and not just the bits that support your particular point of view. For Pete's sake you're like the daytime news .

Can you say anything else besides GENERALIZATION? Do you always spew that? Do you always ignore the fact that hey, this is the middle east and the many leaders of that nations here are religous extremists? I'm sorry you've missed all that.

To quote Inyri "Generalization".

No, I'm not Jewish. No, I don't hate Muslims. I hate extremists of any religion and the fact that people ignore the extremists running rampant in the Middle East.


Yes, that means I hate those Catholic priests who molested boys just as much as I hate terrorists who blow themselves up for a religous cause.

You hate extremists, yet you label the entire Muslim community as a bunch of extremists. That's a little extreme to me.

The muslim community has enough extremists to stereotype themselves as extremists.

I'd argue that the people reporting the extremism are predominantly Christian sources, and that the non-extremist muslims are in such a vast contrast to the extremists that they are almost unnoticed. I've never met an extremist muslim, and I have to say the non-extremists are incredibly nice, passive, and intelligent. It's hard to view both parties and being from the same religion.

I'm sure if we were in a middle-eastern country they'd be saying the same thing about Christians and Jews in terms of extremism. It's all about point of view.

Something that is terrible, extreme or malevolent seems to be more noticed than peaceful people. This is normal for humans.

That's my point - saying they must be mostly extremists because that's all you hear about isn't true. The gradient from passive to extreme is very sharp - there doesn't seem to be much in between for the muslim people. You're either nice or you want to blow people up :lol:.

Speaking of generalizations... *whistle*
