US ambassador 'killed in Libya'

The trademark of a 'democratic' society is tolerance for diverse and even offensive speech -- with extremely few exceptions -- without resorting to violence. If there are those few exceptions, if there are violations of them, then those violations must be addressed by the government, not by mob justice. The ME have a long way to go towards democratic maturity.

Sorry to inject on your comments on this thread but your statement that "The trademark of a 'democratic' society is tolerance" is way of the mark. USA has been a democracy for 200+ years but had never been tolerant till the early 80's. True Tolerance does not come from democracy but from higher education and understanding which makes people seek peace. The education in the third world countries today just promotes fear, religious insecurity and intolerance similar to what prevailed in USA and UK in the 40-50's when blacks were not allowed to vote, women were attacked for trying to stand up for their rights. Having our long histories of intolerance behind us, was it right to enforce democracy by force/bombs in these countries maybe 20 years too early, the right approach by NATO? A question you studiously avoid answering on this forum. Saddam, Sadat, Quadaffi were products of their own countries (unlike Shah Of Iran) and we should have truly kept ourselves neutral then unleash our brand of freedom and democracy on people who just were not ready for it.

Look within first and you will find an answer. Followers of all religions have done similar things in the past and will do so in the future. Just because it is in vogue to critique Muslims and Islam does not make it right. Plenty has been dished out by Christians, Jews, Hindus etc. etc. at different times.

Yes...followers of all religions have done things - but not at the alarming frequency and at the slightest, most ridiculous justifications as the Islamists tend to do. That is the bare truth.

LOL Islam has been spread by violence since its creation. Don't sugarcoat it buddy. Our previous President has tried to portray Islam as a religion of peace but we know thats not true. Many Muslims still be killing each other compare to other conflicts.

Highest ppl killed in any conflict compare to any other religion are the christens, And jews have always been the catalyst so does it stand true in this case.

Wow... wow... there is so much hatred here on this thread.... I hope some f*****g asteroid hits the earth or there is some ginormous solar flare that roasts everyone. :angry:


I'm sure even then, the hatred won't end. A few survivors may ask the following questions:

Israeli survivor: Did the Muslims survive?
Saudi survivor: Did Iran survive?
Iranian survivor: Did the Saudis survive? Did the Jews die a horrible death?
UAE survivor: Did our oil survive?
Indian survivor: Did the Pakistanis survive?
Pakistani survivor: Did the Indians survive?
Arab survivor: Did the JOOOS survive?

To name a few...

And yes.....

American survivor: Is any Starbucks / McDonalds open for business?

You should abandon your current forum handle because your postings certainly are not neutral. :lol:

The highlighted phrase is nothing more than convenient rhetorical insult against US, not from rational thoughts. If a country go to war to enforce a political goal and if that action ended up in replacing the existing political structure, what do you expect US to do? What do you PREFERS that we install in place? Another dictatorship? Or what we know best and how to defend it?

This does not automatically earn non muslims any license to kill millions of Muslims, in Kashmir, Gujrat, Hyderabad, Assam and now in Mayanmar.

Why don't you kill, muslims and non-muslims happily in pakistan in the name of Islam. Why not allow the rest of the world to benefit from your foresight and do the same?

Its a well known "Fact" that Muslims have zero tolerance about Disgracing their religious icons..If you don't believe in our religion and our Religious figures,why not mind your own business and Keep away?
Why Provoke us on Purpose? If they hadn't made the Movie,nothing of this had ever happened.


Did they force you to watch the movie ?

Even if they forced, why not protest as sane human beings do ? Take for example how the Christians protested against the Da Vinci Code. Why behave like a bunch of barbarians in heat ?

Nothing sit it out and buy some popcorn and let history be made by the people of that country. Where did you get the divine right to topple or install Dictatorships anywhere in the world?

I wonder if those guys know about how many youtube vids there are that bash Islam and the like. If they protested like now, I'm pretty sure humans would've become extinct :lol:

It is a third rate , humorless satire . Search for "innocence of Muslims". Can't believehow effortlessly he achieved his goal.

If only the protestors knew that :rolleyes:. He wanted to portray the Muslims as a bunch of violent goons who will riot, kill at the slightest provocation and boy, he achieved his goal.

No 'divine' right. Just geopolitics. But I notice you avoided the question on what should replace the removed. That is fine with me. We are used to such tap dancing.

And do you think it matters to them? They are happy they got revenge and thats what they care. How Islam is potrayed is the least of their bother. The question which we should is he released them from their Jinnie boxes.
