kill all boomers
lolall i'm saying is you have a wrong impression of islam.
btw im not a muslim. a couple of my friends are though. you seem like a smart person so you should know you can't believe everything the media tells you.
idk whats wrong with the terrorists, they MAY have misinterpretted the Qur'an or they are all angry bastards who kill people in the name of religion.
point is, no religion teaches/condones violence. islam is no exception.
typical mooselum defense:
- "Have you even read the Qu'ran?" and if that fails "You haven't read it in Arabic so doesn't count"
- "You shouldn't let the media shape your views" assuming that it does
- "terrorists aren't real muslims because they don't fit *my* interpretation of the Qu'ran and *I'm* a real muslim because *I* say so"
How is it please explain yourselfwhat Osama and Al Qaeda do in the name of Islam is irrelevant.
How is his perception of something that is, as you say, up for interpretation wrong. That immediately makes yours wrong just as muchthey were not legitimate targets, they didn't deserve to be killed and neither do other middle eastern civilians. they have nothing to do with this. and again, you dont know what im on about. your perception of ISLAM is wrong. i dont give two shit about the terrorists. what they are doing is wrong, no two doubts about that.
It really depends on whether you're a Sunni or Shia Muslim. If you think that invasion/occupation/fuckinglookingatthemthewrongwayorwhatever of the Holy Lands of Saudi Arabia and Jerusalem by (filthy) Jews and kaffirs is a means of aggression against the Ummah, then defending yourself via violence is very justified. The Qu'ran supposedly promotes some form of moral warfare (which is just fucking horseshit) but all of that goes out the window when you've got barely literate peasants waving Kalashnikovs around and hijacking planesyes, it's up to individual interpretation BUT so are all the other sacred books.
in the end, as you said it comes down to the individual, ISLAM has nothing to do with terrorists. the reasons terrorists provide are hokum.
