More Muslim Media Bullshit

Anne Bonney:

--- Quote from: "shaggys" ---The hysteria and rage directed at americans of japanese descent after pearl harbor was incredible. Locked into internment camps and treated like dogs even after many of them volunteerd to join our army and die for this country. The Nissei(Japanese-American) brigades went over and served with distinction in the Italian campaign. Gave their lives for the same nation that was locking up their relatives in camps. We should all learn a lesson from this. Not all Muslims are in some grand conspiracy to destroy America. We play into the hands of extremists when we overreact to threats.

--- Quote from: "Stonewall" ---
Religion is a tough thing to discuss. The quote... 'Religion is the opiate of the masses', doesn't really tell the tale.

I think it does very well.  It keeps the peasants from revolting for fear of going to hell if they dare question or defy what their religious leaders are telling them to do.  It also acts as a comfort for the normal human fears of things not understood and/or death.

Yes, they did.  They did it for the 72 virgins and to be seen as martyrs for "the cause".

Right, and agreed, but this really has not much to do with the topic, other than saying "See? This is what happens when you generalize and unfairly judge a mass of people because of their race, religion or whatever."

The original post talks about how Christians were told to get the hell off the street, or else. Talk about unfair judgment. Maybe we should set up some internment for Christians, eh Anne? It would "get America back" for all of the evil it's done over the years.
