Re: Someone has to say it said by Parogadi:
Oh and if you want to know why the arabs hate "white" countries then pick up some history books and start at the crusades and work your way up. Think † while you do that.
Wow, what powerful insights! Tell me then, Mr. Educated, why do they hate Jews so? I mean, Jews never tried to † Anybody, Jews never carried out crusades, Jews never proselytize, never coerce or even invite anyone into their faith. Matter of fact, historically, Muslims have always preferred the company of Jews to that of Christians precisely for that reason. So why all the hatred? I only ask because I'm a dumb American who elects stupid people and you're so educated.
While you're at it, maybe you could also explain this: The Soviet Union, when there was one, spent some 80 years oppressing - and often quite brutally - up to 50 million Muslims - and you've NEVER heard a single peep from Muslim leaders or Muslim countries, in fact, many of them were happy to be Soviet client-states. America, with all it's faults and all the atrocities it has committed around the world, doesn't stop sending wheat and other foodstuff to Muslim countries (not to mention 95% of the rest of the world who would be executed for saying a single word about their own leaders, but are happy to march down the streets burning American flags having had a good breakfast made up of American-grown food) - as well as contributing to their economies with all the oil we buy from them. They feel miserable? Sure they do, so would I with the leaders they have. So what do they do about it other than hate America? I've heard a Saudi Crown Prince quote from the Qur'an: "Allah smiles on those who help themselves." And that's all they can come up with? Blow up busses and crash commercial airliners into buildings in exchange for eternity with 70 virgins? loot their own hospitals and complain that there is a shortage of drugs? Steal oil and turbines from their own power plants and demand that America restore power immediately? Steal every motor from their own sewage-processing plants and complain that America is inflicting cholera on them? I'm impressed.

And just to clear up any misconceptions of my ethnicity, I'm half "white"(on my dad's side, don't feel like listing all countries so I'll say typical american mutt)
I gather then that the list of countries is longer than "don't feel like listing all countries so I'll say typical american mutt" - Impressive. More keystrokes to save yourself the trouble of typing fewer keystrokes. The wonders of education.
Sorry. Anytime an argument begins with "you're so uneducated and I'm so smart therefore I must be right" - this is what you're going to get.
