    I was just making a comment on the "sectarian violence" which MAINLY occurs with the Sunni and Shia but others are involved.

    My problem is with all kinds of violence, a Christian martyr doesn't KILL anyone, they just accept their own fate if that single idea was common in Islam then the world would be a better place. The IRA vs Northern Ireland was more a political fight than religious.

    I know quite a few muslims and they may feel the same as your friends BUT they don't have a stage or an audience. As for me vs the "Turbo Christians" I don't have an audience or stage either....unless you know anyone

    What like Western Armed Forces?? Because I'd very much like you to find me another branch of Islamic religious thought that is involved in this conflict. If it's religion you are talking about then it doesn't involve Kurds who are generally Shia.

    My problem is with all kinds of violence, a Christian martyr doesn't KILL anyone, they just accept their own fate if that single idea was common in Islam then the world would be a better place. The IRA vs Northern Ireland was more a political fight than religious.

    That single idea is common in Islam, but it isn't common among terrorists. That idea is common among Christianity, but it isn't among Loyalists or Republicans who die murdering people. How hard is this? Btw it wasn't the 'IRA vs Northern Ireland', the issue was far more complex than that. Northern Ireland is mixed with Catholics & Protestants. There was terrorism from BOTH sides. Both IRA (Republicans) & groups like the UDA (Loyalists). Do you really think the issue with Sunnis & Shias in Iraq isn't political. You're right it has nothing to do with Saddam's subjugation of the Shia majority. Nope, that's TOTALLY different from Northern Ireland.

    I know quite a few muslims and they may feel the same as your friends BUT they don't have a stage or an audience. As for me vs the "Turbo Christians" I don't have an audience or stage either....unless you know anyone

    You know quite a few Muslims, but you've never asked their opinion on this issue you care so much about?? Lyle, are they friends or are they simply people who serve you food at a restaraunt? Anyway let me understand this, you accept that most Muslims are against it, but don't have the means to show it. Who should? Tell me which Muslims with an audience you'd like to see condemning it?
    Once again, notes above Lyle

    OK Jaz, thanks for your "notes" and all but since you would rather be a condescending asshole than debate this topic like an educated man, I'm going to just give up on this thread.

    I don't know what you think about me personally but to assume that I have no muslim friends and to insult me like that....that's uncalled for.

    God almighty Lyle, you do know how to throw a strop don't you??

    I don't think you're a racist or a bigot or any of the things you like to think you're being accused of, I didn't assume you had no Muslim friends, but surely if you do you have asked their opinion on this topic?

    But, the fact is you're saying things as fact, when you're not that educated on the topic. I am. Do you know why you never see me commenting with authority on things like the US economy? Because I'm not informed enough about it, I'm certainly not as informed on it as you are. But on the topic of Northern Ireland/Iraq & the roots of their conflict, I am informed as it was the major part of my Politics degree looking at international conflict.

    It would be nice to have a debate with you where you were maybe honest & said 'I don't know enough about that to comment' rather than posted poorly-informed opinions & throw your toys out of the pram when someone disagrees with you.

    I've made it clear in the past that I actually think you're a pretty cool guy even if we differ politically, but posting stuff that isn't well-informed for the sake of it is very LeftyLee-ish (yes I just used Lefty as an adjective). You know you can post better than that. If you'd answer my questions fine, if you don't want to cool. But as you always tell me, you don't care if you offend me, so the same goes the other way.

    Anyway, I do understand how you feel, this article though gives a pretty good account of how most Muslims feel about having to march against terrorists.

    Jaz, I'm done with the argument, sure I could take my time explain my points a bit more carefully so that you understand where I'm coming from but after this...

    You know Lyle, for someone who hates the likes of Al Sharpton & Jesse Jackson, you sure do get as easily offended as they do. Try to lighten up & see a bit of humour, rather than taking everything in the most offensive possible way.

    It is there though, and that is a huge shame. It's like a huge sore on the face of the world. I would quite like to pick it off and allow the Palestinians to inhabit fresh new skin. Now if the Palestinians would be so kind as to allow Jews to live within the borders then that would be very nice and they should give them equal rights too. But Israel is there and they will continue to get away with their occupation, settlement building and persecution of the very people who most belong there.

    It's beyond me how anyone can defend a rogue state like that
    Miles, you should read some of David Rose's stuff. He's a Jewish journalist, who has some great stuff regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, it's definitely worth looking up his stuff.

    Also it's worth reading up on the case of Thomas Hurndall to see just how vicious the Israeli state can get when outsiders try to 'threaten' it.

    Good on them.The largest mosque in Melbourne I think is in Carlton.They have had some trouble with the leader of that one (teaching the naughty way to educate us demons from the west). I think many are scared of his reach.

    I voted "No." The title/basis of this thread is ridiculous. Not even worth responding to.

    I've come to conclude that the Israeli/Palestinian issue will never be solved. We'll be reading about it when we're old men. Palestinians and Israeli's will never embrace the examples set forth by MLK and Ghandi as they should.

    Israel's threat to world peace is a very serious issue and the way they go about asserting their 'authority' is by acting in a way that might be quite easily described as state sponsored terrorism. Of course, it isn't just Israel. Our own nations are guilty of the most heinous crimes against humanity too.

    As is Iran, North Korea, China, Russia, and the United States. And so many nations are guilty of heinous crimes against humanity.
