DeepSight:
Thank you, but I know and understand all this.
One thing you should understand also is that there is a difference between the views of Islam held by the average Westerner and the politically correct sensitive distinctions made by politicians which you are referring to. These are the politicians who like to repeat that Islam is a religion of peace, even if it is anything but.

DeepSight:
The truth is that we simply dont wish to be serious or grown up in these matters otherwise we would recognize that religion is a personal matter and should not be brought into the workplace especially in any way that interferes with the nature of required work, or established standards of professionalism. This is the same way in which you have Muslims every where and in every ministry and department who will insist on leaving their desks for their prescribed prayers multiple times a day. Even in situations where it is manifestly unreasonable and even dangerous to others (such as a hospitable for instance). You will have people saying that, oh no, its my faith, and it comes before everything else. The truth is that if it is that important then please dont take that job that may require your service at prayer time, okay?

Don't go to a school that has a uniform, a force that has a uniform, or any other organization that has a uniform and insist on wearing your own religious outfit because "it is my faith and it comes above everything else." That is nonsensical indiscipline and lack of professionalism. That is just like a female soldier refusing to wear trousers as prescribed battle-gear and insisting on wearing maybe a burqa at the war front because it is her faith and comes before everything else. We really should stop all this nonsense: your religion is your private affair, practice it in private and stop imposing it on process and systems that ought to be standardized and professional.

If you will be consistent with what you are saying just imagine an adherent of the Celestial Church of Christ insisting on attending to official functions at a work place bare-footed, because it is his or her faith. Is that not nonsensical, and yet if you insist on this argument of "it is my faith" then you ought to permit not just that, but every other religious oddity that it may take anyone's fancy to wear in a work place, including dreadlocks for Rastafarians.

The above was my response to another poster in another thread. Let me just add to it by saying with respect to your point about how they are risking their lives for our safety, the truth is that this sort of muddying of the waters by mixing your religious dictates with your professional service also puts lives at risk in many ways - a simple example is that of those officers who will leave their duty posts to go and heed the call of prayer multiple times a day.

First stage of islamisazation

Mynd44:
There was once a debate amongst Americans as to if some American soldiers of a certain religion (not Muslim or Christian) should wear long beards and someone answered thus "I am not a soldier, I don't intend to join the army as I don't have the stomach to risk my life. These people are out there in the line of fire so I can be safe, the last thing I am worried about it has long or short their beard is"

Female police offficers are out their putting life at risk, are paid low, don't get respected enough yet are out there on the streets to keep it save against criminals. Something I am not doing so I can sleep well. The last thing I am bothered with is if they are wearing an extra scarf or not. This arguement over the dress is pointless and silly.

Let the officers dress this way, it does not violate their uniform

I don't support this war, but get d fact right. Both Palestine and Israel are fighting. But this, Russia wage war, Ukraine defending their country. Very different. Or u don't know how many bombs Palestine threw to Israel as well?

Jackanda1:
. How did he bring war against his government and people?

Direct your question to the Israelis.

Ask them what you just asked me.

You hear?

olatade:
You're asking me?

olatade:
Auction that off, along with all other Russian regime/elite assets in the West, and use the proceeds to pay for the reconstruction of Ukraine.

sotall:
Yes...that's why the West keeps getting supported despite their bad side.

They have proven successful to keep religious terrorists in check.

And this is why some of you aint happy.

sotall:
Its like your own history started about a decade ago. .


When the two-state solution first came up, who rejected it?


Who declared war and was supported by other Arab nations?

At the end what happened?

So now Palestine is screaming loud that they are blockaded.

They are screaming they are being killed.

They declared war on Israel and attacked Israel so they deserve whatever is coming their way.

sotall:
Go and read about the two-state solution and come back with an opinion.

sotall:


Everything Russia should be banned.

If the citizens of Russia feel they are not been treated right, let them stage a coup against the government.

Catholic Russian kills a Christian Ukrainian girl, Nigerian Christian blames all Muslim


something is fundamentally wrong with Africans majorly Nigerians

News like this can be very sweet to those Muslims who are supporting russia just because of their hatred for america.

But why do they hate America ? Is it because america don't sympatize with terrorists ?

The next time you hear of a terror attack -- no matter where it is, no matter what the circumstances -- you will likely think to yourself, "It's Muslims again." And you will probably be right.

In 2014, about 30,000 people were killed in terror attacks worldwide. The vast majority of those perpetrating the violence were Muslim but -- and this is important -- so were the victims. Of the some 30,000 dead, the vast, vast majority were Muslims.

That's crucial to understand because it sheds light on the question, "Why do they hate us?" Islamic terrorists don't just hate America or the West. They hate the modern world, and they particularly hate Muslims who are trying to live in the modern world.

Chienex24:
Have the said Israel ever attacked Palestine without any provocation?? Go and check history, find out and get back to me

NaughtyBrainiac:

The response you'd get is that Ukraine joining NATO is threat to Russia. The question is, does Ukraine have the right and freedom to join Organisations of her choice or not?

smallsmall:
Israel kills Palestinians on a daily basis, despite being the one occupying their lands, controlling how much water they can drink, how much Cement can enter their Prison, if and when they can get Hospital treatment, How much food can enter their territory, how much Petrol is allowed into Gaza, where they can travel to and if they can come back home, etc.

But you never hear it in the Western Media, it does not concern them, those Palestinians do not deserve all the hue and cry of Sovereignty, Human Rights or Dignity.

Even the fools on this Nairaland blaming Russia have never spared a thought and blame EU/NATO for not attacking Israel over such atrocities but they are here crying their hearts out over Russia.
That shows you how daft, Black people, especially Nigerians, are.
The World has truly lost its sense of Justice.
