jiddama first of all UAE is not a Muslim country, its a country with a predominantly Muslim population but its system of government and policy making is not Islamic.I will encourage you to do more research on the subject. There is no country that is a "Muslim" country. There are countries that base their laws and way of life using Islamic jurisprudence and Islamic law commonly called Sharia. There are countries which practice Islamic theocracy and implement strict Sharia laws i.e. Saudi Arabia and their likes. There are countries that practice Sharia laws and incorporate civil laws and the U.A.E is one of them but it's a predominantly Islamic country. And to your allegations:Simple - in most cases, the association with the Muslim Brotherhood has led to Islamic terror. I can give you so many examples: 1. The Muslim Brotherhood was responsible for the assassination of Egyptian president Anwar Sadat in the 70's. I wonder how a "peaceful" group would result to assassination to it's own president. 2. The Muslim Brotherhood supreme guide Mustafa Mashhur said that Christians and Jews in Egypt should pay the jizya in the 90's. Are Egyptians Copts and Orthodox Jews not Egyptians like other Muslims in Egypt? Why should one Egyptian pay protection money to another Egyptian because they share different beliefs? 3. Ayman al-Zawahiri, the current leader of Al-Qaeda was and is a Muslim Brotherhood member. He has murdered thousands of innocent Muslims and non-Muslims because of the role he plays in this organization. 4. Muslim Brotherhood members murder copts: http://www.raymondibrahim.com/muslim-persecution-of-christians/egypt-christians-killed-for-ransom/ Naturally, the leaders of U.A.E are not ignorant. The president doesn't want to get up one morning and his country is taken over by "extremist elements". There are 1001 examples I can give. personally I don't consider the USA as my marker to labelling people and groups. they are neither saints nor do they have a clean history to be jurors.besides their bone of contention as regards to the middle east always arises when they do not see eye to eye in policy making.The current US administration doesn't label CAIR a terrorist organization. CAIR is not, strictly speaking, a terrorist organization: it doesn’t blow things up or exhort others to do so. It is, however, an Islamic supremacist organization with the same goals as those of Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State: the imposition of Islamic law wherever and whenever possible so are we now to just brand an organization like CAIR as a terror group just because our instinct and pseudo-psychological tink tanks believe that they are capable of degenerating to terror?Nope; we brand them a terror organization based on their history and leadership and their support for terrorist organization. Do you know how many CAIR members have been arrested on Islamic terrorism charges? Here is what the U.A.E responded when asked why CAIR was labelled a terrorist organization: Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan is the United Arab Emirates’ Minister of Foreign Affairs. In this interview with Fox’s Bret Baier, he says: "Our threshold is quite low when we talk about extremism. We cannot accept incitement or funding when we look at some of these organizations. I mean, for many countries the definition of terror is that you have to carry a weapon and terrorize people. For us, it’s far beyond that. We cannot tolerate even the smallest and tiniest amount of terrorism." I hope that throws some light on the issue. my answer to above is no.we don't because we judge base on what we see not some some wish washy feeling.As regards to their members allegations that is an individual action so should be treated as such and appropraite measures should be taken if found "guilty".Individual members? What are you talking about? You have a group that supports the Muslim Brotherhood agenda. A group that could demonize you if you critic Islam and attack you legally. You have a group that supports other terrorist organizations. Several members of CAIR has called for the destruction of Israel in so many words. The list is endless And you kept mentioning CAIR as I recall there were over 70 groups for what crime were the other good ones on the list for?You brought up CAIR in your post and I have been following CAIR for some time. I know a few people in Minnesota who family members have joined groups like Al-Shabaab in Somalia and the CAIR local council has demonized the local imam for speaking with the feds and authorities about this. My advice - pay close attention from your post I can see you are a Muslim; my advice:I don't know where you are my sister. CAIR doesn't represent me as a Muslim neither does it represent thousands of other Muslims. I can't even begin to start with the claims that CAIR has against it: 1. Steven Pomerantz, the FBI's former chief of counter-terrorism, notes that "CAIR, its leaders, and its activities effectively give aid to international terrorist groups.". That is coming from a former government official 2. There are American Muslims who reject CAIR's claim to speak on their behalf. The late Seifeldin Ashmawy, publisher of the New Jersey-based Voice of Peace, called CAIR the champion of "extremists whose views do not represent Islam" 3. Kamal Nawash, head of Free Muslims Against Terrorism, finds that CAIR and similar groups condemn terrorism on the surface while endorsing an ideology that helps foster extremism, adding that "almost all of their members are theocratic Muslims who reject secularism and want to establish Islamic states. Perhaps the most obvious problem with CAIR is the fact that at least five of its employees and board members have been arrested, convicted, deported, or otherwise linked to terrorism-related charges and activities. I agree with you on the fact that not all terrorists are born terrorists but we need to take the right steps to ensure they are not being radicalized.and that will be another discussion entirelyI am interested in that discussion. My stand on that is simple - some parts of Islam require a reformation. |
jiddama:It's a Muslim country that has it's own terrorist list based on certain criteria - we should objectively research those criteria. Why are Muslims debating and condemning the U.A.E because of that. The US considers Hamas and Hezbollah terrorist organizations yet many Muslims all over the world consider them legitimate resistance movement. How many CAIR members have been directly linked to the Muslim Brother-hood and actively or passively tunneling funds to numerous terrorist groups? 1. CAIR has numerous lawsuits against it because of several terror related charges 2. CAIR discourages Muslims from talking to FBI 3. Several former CAIR officials have been convicted of various crimes related to jihad terror 4. CAIR "disappointed" that it failed to intimidate UC Berkeley into canceling Bill Maher appearance because Bill said "Islam is the only religion that will assassinate you if you talk about it - Islam is like the mafia" There are 1001 other reasons but the U.A.E is concerned with the support such organizations have with the Muslim Brotherhood. I suggest we look at the list more objectively. Besides, not all terrorists were born terrorists; they were normal people at some point until they start to kill others in the same of God and especially in the name of our religion |
Alvelt14:Any evidence? |
Gentlesniper:Exactly my point; they shouldn't be killed especially under a democracy. |
abbey621:You were the same id.iot that called me a liar and said I didn't attend a navy school now you are here stating I was never in the Navy . Your "know-it-all" attitude is the reason why you seem to know little about the subject you are talking about. Where in my post did I endorse a direct disobedience to your superiors if it was a lawful order?You were the same person that said if you were asked to murder your father and you didn't; you will be court-marshalled = you are the only idio.t who don't know the difference between killing and murder in a military context. It's physically tiring trying to reason with you. Not all military orders are lawful - get that into your iron brain. Whether you believed I served my country or not is irrelevant; that will not change the paycheck I receive every month . Go read it up for your education - http://www.ucmj.us/ |
babaluckey:I remember Jesus saying - "Give unto Ceasar what is Ceasar and unto God what is God". No church should endorse one party or politician but should encourage their members to exercise their constitutional rights. The Church should speak against injustice and corruption the same way Jesus and His disciples did - that is not politics; that is speaking the truth. |
abbey621:You seem to have hard time understanding the premise: 1. We have an oath here in the US when we want to join the armed forces: I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God." (Title 10, US Code; Act of 5 May 1960 replacing the wording first adopted in 1789, with amendment effective 5 October 1962). That oath is very simple - defend the constitution, obey the president and my superiors as long as it is [size=15pt]lawful[/size]. That is why we have regulations and code of military justice. A democratic government is not a tyranny; we have laws we all follow, even the military. 2. The Nigerian oath is similar with some core differences - since you know so much about your military history; please read on it before you make yourself look stup.id online. A section of that oath stipulates the following: I will, in the performance of my duties, eschew and expose corruption and will not corrupt others or aid or abet corruption in all its facets. I take God beg you, please do more research in the future. Your brothers graduating from the Nigerian Defense Academy has nothing to do with military doctrine or military laws. We have military attorneys and lawyers that study military laws. What you have going on now is a show and those innocent soldiers are been used as scape-goats |
clemzo101: . I be like breeze |
clemzo101:Keeping my fingers crossed |
abbey621:Bros - I asked you for the oath that every soldier takes. Since you know a lot about Nigerian military laws - can you please state the oath that every soldier takes? Thanks for your offer - not interested |
abbey621:NNSS Ojo set of 2000. My close friend who I can't mention is a Nigerian Major at this moment. I did a stint in the Liberian conflict. I was stationed in Richmond Virginia - unfortunately, I am not at liberty to discuss the missions but I can give you a couple of the cities I was at. Impersonation ; you don't say ![]() |
abbey621:Can you tell me the oath every soldier takes before signing up as a Nigerian soldier? Since you want to talk about military laws - I am interested in what you know |
abbey621:Look at this one - I have more hardware at home than most of your military friends have used or handle. You seem to know little of military procedures and laws - go look it up before you embarrass yourself. I was raised in a military family, went to a Navy school, served as a veteran. I will ignore your lack of authority on this subject |
abbey621:Dude - I will not go into a battle without enough ammo and no one should either. They didn't run away; they refused to take an order because they considered it unlawful |
abbey621:Dude - every military man take an oath before joining the army. It's not under all circumstances that you obey and carry out the orders of your superiors. For example - if your superior tell you to go to a village and kill everyone there i.e. kids, innocent women, unarmed men etc - you can decide not to obey that order. If your officer tells you to go and fight without the proper tools, you can decide not to go and fight. There are military rules of engagement in war. If the order was lawful; you have the right to obey it - if it wasn't; you are not obligated to |
abbey621:Who pays the military? Is it not your taxes? Who writes their budgets? Dude - try and be objective |
thegoodjoehunt3:That is the whole point. How can you ask someone to work when you haven't given them the tools and resources to work? Look at the conflict in Ukraine - the same thing happened. You have Ukrainian soldiers that were go hungry that they had to go to the rebels to get food and medication. A hungry army, broke army, corrupt army can do little to nothing. We had generals, admirals those days - what we have now is a joke |
abbey621:Start with the corruption of military officers. Stealing public funds especially military funds is what treason and mutiny is. How can you give AK 47 with 3 mags i.e 90 bullets to go and fight an insurgency that has more weapons than the army of the Gambia? I would die for a just cause but not for a stupid cause. These are some of the reasons people will leave the army and support the insurgency even if they don't agree with their ideology. It's terrible to see corruption eating at the core of the Nigerian army where the army can't even provide decent weapons for it's soldiers. |
Dreambeat:If only those "officers" earned their promotion like real soldiers. 90% of them can't run a mile nor can they operate 3 different kinds of assault weapons. They rather steal and build mansions than make sure their subordinates have the tools and resources they win to fight this insurgency. |
Me as well |
ifeness:Coming from someone who said Jesus was born on December 25th. Stop embarrassing yourself Bro. Again, learn and move on |
herald9:The Hadiths endorsed it but it's not in the Quran. That was my point |
herald9:The Catholic priest practiced it. I don't expect it's a teaching in Christianity. It is encouraged in Islam; however, I don't see it endorsed in the Koran |
FrancisTony:Which church you dey go? The pastor na gay? |
herald9:You are wasting your Bro. Soon they will tell us pedo.phili.a is normal too and we should accept it |
FrancisTony:You were done long ago but you have tried worlds over to justify your sexuality. If it was normal; why would anyone complain? |
FrancisTony Did I say God created Adam and SteveJust the same way God doesn't support homosexuality. Job 31:11-12 New Living TranslationInteresting, a man that sodomises another man quotes the scripture ![]() |
If it's morally right for you to have a girlfriend and your conscience doesn't prick you, I don't see why it should morally wrong for them to be gay. I mean girlfriend, because bible is against lusting-after someone that isn't your wife.Dude, stop twisting the Bible to support your life-style. The Bible encourages a union between one man and one woman i.e. Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve. There is no where in the Bible where it supports homosexuality in anyway or form. |
FrancisTony Everything supports them. ByeReally, so there are gay tendencies in lions, bears, sharks, whales, chimps, dogs and all the species we know? ![]() Homosexuality means having an attraction for same sex. Bisexuals can be grouped among.Stop confusing yourself. A homosexual is different from a Bi-sexual. These are all sexual behaviors. A homosexual is supposedly attracted to the same sex. A bi-sexual is equally attracted to both sexes - A BIG DIFFERENCE! It doesn't have to be a heterosexual. It can be a lesbian. A gay can't get an erection with a woman and there's no way he can get her pregnant. That's an interesting theory - gays need the opposite sex to reproduce . Do you know how stupi.d you sound. You are proving my point. You need someone of the opposite sex irrespective of their sexual preference. Who told you a gay man can't get an erection with a woman? The penis is meant for a woman's vagina and not a man's anus - mother nature is not stupi.d.There are many cases were gay people become straight and many cases where gay men have children. Homosexuality is a behavior and a choice. I agree that you may have the disposition and proclivity to be attracted to the same sex but you have to decide to go along with it. Here is an interesting article on it by CNN: http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/anderson.cooper.360/blog/2007/02/can-people-change-from-gay-to-straight.html Shey na by force to give birth? As a heterosexual man, if I decide not to give birth, you go beat me? They are helping you control over-population and you're here making a hell of noise.Ironic isn't it? If your parents held the same view, I wonder if you would be here. And this is the gay message after all - approve of our sexual behavior; family is irrelevant since I enjoy another man's butt-hole where my semen will be pooed out. Nobody is begging you to accept it. They are begging you to mind your business. You hear?I care less what you do with your penis and where you put it. If you did it in the closet and didn't advocate for us to accept your life-style; we will not be having this discussion |
ifeness Who are the well known critics who admitted there was a Jesus? Did they show you his birth certificate. I have a birth certificate of my parents to proof they are no myth.Cha - ignorance and stupi.dity on a whole new level. Is it everyone that is born that has a birth certificate? There are thousands of cases in the US and all over the world of people not having birth certificates that we born - have you heard of house births? It is only when these births are officially declared that they are given birth certificates or if those children were delivered in hospitals. That is why there are eye witness accounts. If I ask you to prove to me that you ate dinner at your parents house 10 years ago; how would you do that? Stop repeating "I claimed Jesus was born on December 25th crap"! Is that not the obvious reason you have a holiday on that day? Stop acting as if i wrote it. Ok if mythical Jesus wasn't born on the 25th of December,then when? You tell me.Are you deaf? - The Bible never made a claim when he was born. We know he was born some 2,000 years ago but we don't know what day it was on. Roman historians confirm of Jesus's crucifixion - so except you are on another planet or just plain ignorant; then you can continue with your myth mantra. Please show some objectivity. If you want non biblical sources of Jesus existence, consider: 1. First-century Roman Tacitus, who is considered one of the more accurate historians of the ancient world. Please read his account regarding Jesus. He wasn't a Jew or a Christian so there was no need for him to lie 2. Also refer to Josephus account I have no business with the Jewish version of Horus. My point is simple; Virgin birth is a lieJewish version of Horus? Dude - who brought up Horus? You seem to keep going around in circles. A more accurate statement should be - "Virgin birth can't be observed or reproduced with the current knowledge we have". To say it's a lie means you are all knowing and we both know that you have provided ample evidence to show that you are not a subject matter expert on this topic .No more reply from me on this useless topic.Why did you bother in the 1st place. Since all your points have been adequately refuted; you are running away with your tail between your legs. In the future, take time to do some research before you embarrass yourself. |
Weah96:Except darkness is the absence of VISIBLE light only. There are still photons moving around, undetected by the light sensitive cells in our eyes. So technically, there's a lot of light even in pitch black darkness. |
ifeness So why the 25th? Dont try to lecture me on Christianity. I know all about it and the doctrine Christianity hijacked.One of the reasons I dislike debating people that are not objective. You claimed Christianity and the Bible said Jesus was born on December 25th; I asked you for proof - you failed to provide one yet you insist he was born on December 25th. If you read the Bible and truly understand Christianity; you will know that the Bible makes no claim on what day Jesus was born. Learn from your mistakes and move on Jesus is nothing but a Myth, Savior of the world indeed. A PURE Pagan religion.So far, your premise claiming He is a myth has fallen on it's on claims. Go and research the historical Jesus before you embarrass yourself online. Well known critics of Jesus all admit that He was born, lived and was crucified - now; if that is myth to you - your father and mother are probably myths to you as well ![]() Take a chill an enjoy your December 25th TurkeyTurkey is for thanks giving Bros ![]() |
. Your "know-it-all" attitude is the reason why you seem to know little about the subject you are talking about. Where in my post did I endorse a direct disobedience to your superiors if it was a lawful order?
