AMvanquish: I can undastand why so much of you hate muslims and islam. You sit behind your computers and spit so much hate. If you really hate it, why not go out piblicly and express how you really feel instead of spewing it here. im sure in your daily interactions most of you come across muslims, please next time you meet them; express how you really feel. I dont support violence of any sort but why should a numb skull put out such an insensitive video. If jesus christ was potrayed in such manner which has never been done would you all keep quite. Salman rushdie wrote a book like that in the 1990's, the danish newspaper editor took his share too, terry jones almost nicked it too, and now this. Extremists would always look for scape goats to vent their anger on, can you blame them. As long as the rubbish videos and hate acts keep coming, these extremists would retaliate on what or whoever they can lay their hands on. its unfortunate how a significant few can give billions of believers a bad name. I know my faith well and my beloved prophet had so much prosecution in his time, all this hate for muslims is childs play compared to what he went through in his time. So please keep on expressing the hate and hypocripsy. Well, its behind a computer. Who cares undecided

As a good muslims i condem d killin of d US ambassador and i knw millions of muslims will condem it also cos d US ambassador is innocent and even d Holy Prophet dat we are defendin condem d killin of innocent ones. Bt ppl shld knw dat we muslims love d holy prophet more dan anytin else except God, so tryin to slander him affect us emotionally. If some1 slap, beat or molest ur galfrnd in ur front wen she is innocent, wil u jus stand and be watchin? NO, even if u can beat him/her, u wil shw ur displeasure at dat tym. D only problem is dat some too emotional or xtremists take law into their hand and cause havoc. The intent of d producer is too shw muslims as violent ppl and some ppl has play into his hand. Y nt jus protest peacefully, and boyco America product if dey dont take actions against d coward ediots dat produce and promote d movie. Freedom of speech stop wen it encroach into ppl domain.
Sincerely, i condem d killin of d innocent one and d movie also. Islam is a religion of peace, take it or leave it bt some muslims are nt helpin matter.

Babaji111: May Allah continue to guide and protect His only religion, ISLAM (the religion of Adam, Solomon, Moses, Noah, Abraham,Ismael, Jesus, etc).
So it's not enough that you muslims copied the bible to come up with your Koran, you alsonow claim all the above named as muslims? Better forsake that cult and embrace the true light of being a born again in Christ.

Islam! bloody bloody, bloody religion! angry angry

Always searching for the slightest excuse to shed blood! their taste for blood surpasses that of a vampire!

the so-called poorly scripted amateurish movie looks more like what someone put up with the sole aim of being mischievous. its obviously not a Hollywood production, the actors are so amateurish, none of the faces are on any Hollywood films nor have any of them been seen by any actor in Hollywood. The filming is sooo amateurish that every right thinking person will see it for what it is - TRASH!

Even the so-called producer is not known to have produced any movie in recorded history!

Putting into consideration the issue of how fast the movie was translated into Arabic, how are we sure this film was not made by Al-qaider or any of the numerous Muslim terrorist groups for the sole purpose of using it as a reason to attack the west undecided undecided

after all, every right thinking person knows how sensitive and volatile the Muslims are when it comes to matters concerning their religion [some part of the movie "2012" was edited out simply because the producers felt it will enrage the Muslims]!

I am scared of only two things - snakes and Muslims! i get so terrified and alert anytime i hear their call for prayers - it always sound like a call to arms!embarassed embarassed

I don't want to derail the topic, but why are you simpletons quoting me?

Let me help you use your brain cells and not repeat the crap you saw on TV..

Who owns the cruise missiles that were used to destroy Libya's air defense system?

Who owns the Apache helicopters used during the Libyan intervention?

Who owns the air craft carriers used for surveillance and logistics?

Who owns the drones use throughout the Libyan thing?

Didn't an American F16 crash in Benghazi at the start of the intervention?

Who was in charge of the NATO command during the Libyan intervention??

Answer those questions by yourself and meditate - don't derail the thread..

debosky:

What a load of tosh - so picking Dubai (an exception) excuses the preponderant violence and mindless killings that dominate the Muslim world?

I wonder who was re-inforcing what when Muslims stoopdily went on a rampage in NIGERIA, killing innocent NIGERIANS to protest a Danish cartoon?

How much has been done to 'denigrate' Jesus in the Western Media? How many people get killed because of that daily?

I will never paint Muslims with a broad brush, but it will amount to the greatest form of self deception not to recognise the VIOLENT response of Muslims to any alleged criticism of their prophet.

It has been said that actions speak louder than words - the ACTIONS of Muslims is to resort to killing people each time someone says something they don't like about Mo.

Ha! My analytical friend is here. Why is Dubai "an exception" in your opinion? Of course, there are other places I can mention, but that's beside the point. Yes Muslims in Northern Nigeria have been violent but it is also a well-established fact that Muslims from other tribes who maybe even more knowledgeable about Islam than their murderers are killed in such cases. That would tell anybody with insight that such violence is not based on Islam ditto for the Arab world. Many Arabs have a deep-seated resentment against America in particular and protests like this are Channels they use in venting such anger. Islam is just the cover as its teachings are against such.

If Christians were subjects of systemic oppression and imperialism, you would find them ready to kill for Jesus. Go to Southern Kaduna if in doubt.

Mention the most troubled Muslim countries today, you find Non-Muslims deeply involved from behind the scenes- why?

As for your "brush", tell someone who cares about it.

paris10: Hundreds of brainwashed Muslims will start defending this heinous and devilish act on this forum now. There's nothing moral about killing of people for religious sake.

Ok, accepted, the Movie shouldn't have been made in the first place, but why not criticize or even ask for apology from the producer? Or don't we still have virgins in the world anymore that you so crave for that 70 virgins which your Allah promised you?

Religion is a cankerworm, not worth it. It makes you blind and deprive you of that true love that bond us together as people. It is a better to be an atheist than join a religion where killing is justified.

American embassy in Yemen is currently on attack. There's something missing and wrong with this sect. Can't Islam sort thing out by way of dialogue rather than violence?
I dont know y they cant sort their grieviances by dialogue o, this waste of human life in the name of fighting for religion is not worth it, God is not a man who anybody should fight for,He is God and he can fight for himself. PERIOD

Let me take you back to last year; I saw a video of thousands of black Libyan men from Tawergha in a convoy, heading towards Misrata to defend their city - but what happened?? NATO bombed every single one of them from the sky - and Islamists from Misrata cleansed their city - men, women, and children were massacred for being black, under NATO's supervision... Today, Tawergha(a city of 20,000 black Libyans)

Now has any international Muslim organisation (including those on NL) condemned the killing or are they still justifying it?

"
For the first 13 years of his mission, the Prophet Muhammad and his followers were exposed to demeaning abuse, mockery and torture on a daily basis in Mecca. Not only did he resist violence, he did not even return an insult with another insult. At one point in Mecca, his enemies twisted his name to call him 'Mudhammam' (The Loathsome) instead of 'Muhammad' which deeply offended his followers. But the Prophet calmly comforted them by stating, "Doesn't it astonish you how God protects me from the Quraish's abusing and cursing? They abuse Mudhammam and curse Mudhammam while I am Muhammad."

[Source: Bukhari]

On Tuesday, September 11, extremists in Libya and Egypt reacted to an obscure film which attempts to insult the Prophet Muhammad with profane inaccuracies. But their reaction, which included vandalism and the murder of innocent civilians, completely contradicts the character and message of our beloved Prophet. In a famous Islamic tradition, he stated: "It is not allowed to cause harm to others nor to return harm for harm."

The Quran teaches us that we cannot blame or punish a person for the crime of another and instructs believers to "disagree with them in the most courteous way."


CelebrateMercy Founder Tarek El-Messidi stated, "When lies are spread about our Prophet, we simply respond with the truth. And the most effective response is to embody his merciful character on a daily basis. Violence and vandalism carried out in his name are more offensive than the content of any film.

The Quran tells us that the Prophet is praised by God and His Angels; even a million films cannot threaten his status as the Best of all Creation nor his love in our hearts."

In response to the crimes carried out in the Prophet's name, CelebrateMercy will soon launch a letter- writing campaign to the families of the innocents killed in Libya. We will also release more videos this week about the Prophet's life and character to remind us and others why we love our Prophet, peace be upon him. - Celebrate Mercy

As America would not want to be hit for the actions of those who decide to be intolerant in their speech, so would Muslims not want to be hit for the actions of those who decide to react violently to the intolerance of the first offender.

The blood of the ambassador and the others and more that may be killed later is in the hands of the psychopatic producer of this movie.There was no need for that,if not for the fact that he thinks like bill o'reily of fox news and the rest of agents of hate in america.
