Muslim American Council Pushes for Removal of Racist Statues

I am rooting for both sides :angel:
You devil you :lol:

I agree that all Confederate statues, flags and monuments should be torn down. However, it should be done by the public in broad daylight, not removed at the dead of night by some cranes and the monuments shifted to some museum. Let the public express their hostility to racism by tearing down the monuments just as the Iraqi people vented their emotions by tearing down the idols of Saddam. That will be a moment for the cameras, for the cover of Time magazine, a watershed moment in American history, which will have a great psychological effect on the public. In my view, Confederate and Nazi symbols like the ‘swastika’ should be banned as symbols of hate. Displaying them in public should be a criminal offense. If Muslims in America are raising their voice against the Confederate monuments, more power to them. Muslims should be a part of this great historical movement, if they keep aloof from it, history will not acknowledge their services and they will come to regret it.
Exactly!! America should be cleansed of the symbols of the European plague.

Hell, even the name 'America' must go, it was never a European country. Send these people back to Europe and make every European country pay us reparations like Germany does to Israel for the Holocaust.

Keep in mind that the ‘swastika’ isn’t simply a Nazi symbol of hate, but it has been used by right-wing racist Hindu groups too, whose main target is us Muslims. So as Muslims from the Subcontinent, we should especially be part of the movement against racist symbols both Confederate and Nazi, knowing that the Nazi symbol of racism is derived from Hindu Aryanism. (Those of us Muslims from the Punjab should study the activities of Arya Samaj (lit. 'Aryan Society) in pre-partition Punjab to have a better historical context)
Here in Britain these Nazis and fascists get thrown in prison if they even dare insult Muslim, let alone wave a swastika. One day they will be permanently stamped out of existence by the power of the state and the people who oppose these Nazis.

We need to hold on a second and review what the confederate people want
Do they want their own country ?

We need to see if they are asking for new country or not

I like confederates

Give me my confederate flag to wave

Who cares what they think? Their time has come and gone.

A new age rises and these old Nazi farts have no place in the future. They belong in the past. But even the past must be cleansed of any traces of Nazi history lest this vile ideology revives itself.

All of you say I know nothing about Islam, but all your replies say you know very little of your own religion. Islam may have spread peacefully, but it was also spread by the sword. A simple Google search will confirm this. The list of conquered people is quite long too. Included in Islam's spread are colonialism, genocide, and theft of resources, mostly of non-Muslim people.

Plus, there's the endless bragging of countless Muslim invaders of India by Pakistanis on this forum. How many Hindu temples they destroyed. And so on.

You can believe whatever you want, you're entitled to your delusions.
Pickup a book about Islamic history (not the one they teach you in your Indian schools) and learn some facts about Islam before we embarrassing yourself.

This is good. Erase every symbol of this racist crusader country built on the blood of blacks and indigenous people. @Zibago @django @Iqbal Ali @LA se Karachi



The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), America’s largest Muslim civil rights group, is calling on state and local governments all over the United States to tear down all monuments and memorials commemorating Confederate leaders and the short-lived Confederate States of America.

CAIR joined several groups asking for the removal of Confederate memorials in the wake of a “Unite the Right” white nationalist rally that turned violent over the weekend. At the Charlottesville, Va. rally, James Alex Fields, a rally attendee, allegedly plowed his grey Dodge Challenger through a large group of counter-demonstrators on a pedestrian mall. One woman, Heather Heyer, died in the incident. About 20 other people suffered injuries.

Nihad Awad, CAIR’s national executive director, urged state and local governments to erase every symbol and every vestige of Confederate history immediately.

“A fitting response to the deadly terror attack on anti-Fascist protesters in Charlottesville would be for officials in states and cities nationwide to immediately announce that every street, every school, every flag, and every public memorial honoring those who took up arms in defense of white supremacy and slavery will be removed or have its name changed to instead honor those who fought for civil rights,” Awad said in a statement to The Daily Caller.

“Removal of these memorials would be a small step forward in turning the page on the darkest period in our nation’s history,” Awad also said.


CAIR has created a template for state governments, municipal governments and school district officials to use for introducing resolutions seeking the removal of Confederate memorials and other symbolism.

On Saturday, CAIR denounced President Donald Trump for his remarks about the white supremacist rally. Trump exhibited a “failure of moral leadership,” the Muslim advocacy group said.

A number of local governments have removed or contemplated removing Confederate monuments in recent years. Demands for removal of the statues has grown considerably louder and more forceful in response to the events which unfolded in Charlottesville on Saturday.

Leaders in Lexington, Ky., Gainesville, Fl. and Baltimore, Md. have announced plans to remove statues since Saturday.

On Monday evening, a group of protestors toppled a monument to Confederate soldiers in Durham, North Carolina. (VIDEO: Protestors Topple Confederate Statue In North Carolina)

In May, Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey signed legislation protecting Confederate memorials from removal or modification as long as they have been in place for longer than 40 years. (RELATED: Alabama Governor Signs Bill Protecting Confederate Memorials)

In 2009, CAIR was listed by the U.S. government as an unindicted co-conspirator in a scheme that provided funding to the terror group Hamas.

Which criminals are in Muslim books?

And yes, we do use freedom of speech to undermine Western culture because we can. That is the least we can do after what the White people did to this world.

From the begging of Islam to this day

No you can't use the freedom of speech because it's against your religion and why don't you are against these values in your own countries?!

I hate it when you use the infidel values against the infidels

Confederates almost took DC and hanged Lincoln. Gettysburg was fought in Pennsylvania when Confederates got very close to DC.

Since DC is pretty much on the line it was heavily defended. Most fighting occurred over the line in the South in Virginia. If anything Lee was avoiding D.C. and trying to invade the North and bring the horrors of war to Northern cities which were rather comfy throughout the war. He failed and retreated. Like the battle of Midway during WW2 that was pretty much the end as they were in 100% defensive mode after that.

And how are we being stupid by giving out opinion on the Confederate statues being torn down?
You can support both sides and both harmful organizations without leaving a single mark instead shouting around like a fool and choosing a side. That is a controlled mess, take it out of control and turn it into complete mess. Nobody cares your opinion already.
