Bill Maher and Sam Harris both react in similar fashion when they are confronted by people who know they’re talking about. Ben Affleck is a lightweight. But when Bill Maher discussed the issue with Piers Morgan, he went irate. When it was Glenn Greenwald, Maher started the smug comments. Sam Harris in his argument with Noam Chomsky tried some painfully stupid thought experiment. In this particular theory, Harris and Maher’s position is very simple “It’s okay when we do it.”

I mean he’s got a point. Bill loves to be racist against Muslims cause he’s a crazy fascist genocide loving Zionist. Of course there is an issue of Islamic extremism. But there are a far higher percentage of Israeli’s who are fanatical extremists. This genocide is widely supported by the people of Israel. The polling shows their people have zero regard killing civilians including kids wantonly. Many cheering kids dying. There has been some insane racism from them on social media and quotes from their genocidal politicians

Sam Harris: The crucial point of confusion is that every criticism with the doctrine of Islam gets conflated with bigotry. Ben Affleck: Allow me to demonstrate!

@Stitchman3875 3 жыл бұрын

As Bill Maher got upset when Piers Morgan took him to task about the Iraq War which we illegally waged. After being pressed Maher throws some flippant "Well that is the kind of stuff Noam Chomsky would say". Noam Chomsky and Sam Harris were in a beef because Noam Chomsky rightly said we are just as much to blame as they are. All Harris says is "Well what were our intentions?" scenario, and tries to use WWII as an example of how we are just the good guys. Fact is we have been stirring trouble not only in that region, but in other regions of the world as well. We make and break deals with other regions (Iran Nuclear Agreement). I can agree that Affleck was a little erratic, but without Harris and Maher acknowledging that most of this was our doing, it can easily lean towards bigotry. Especially in Harris' analysis, the conclusion will always be America is the noble, altruistic, and benevolent nation. Islam, they are barbarians. Personally I think Harris and Maher should be stripped of the liberal label and just go to the Neocons.

@@se7enhaender Wrong, it all began when in 1953, we staged a coup in Iran and overthrew their democratically elected leader and installed a dictator and established an autocracy. All this so we can get cheaper oil. Then we kept their money after a revolution. Then in the 80's we backed Saddam Hussein when he fought Iran, while we knew he was killing people in his country. But we looked the other way. Al-Qaeda was part of the Taliban Government who we installed in Afghanistan after we backed them against the Soviet Union. We shot down an Iranian passenger plane and then said it was an accident. We started an illegal war with Iraq searching for fictitious WND's. Even recently, we pull out of the nuclear deal with Iran even though they were following it, and then sanctioned them, preventing their people from getting food and medicine. And then we have Saudi Arabia, the biggest Violator of human rights and the biggest sponsor of terrorism. Oh but wait, they're allies with the US, so it's cool, right? We entered a weapons deal with them, selling weapons which they used to commit genocide in Yemen. Not sure about you, but to me that kind of stuff tends to piss people off and would draw out the fanatics. We try to play it off like were the noble good guys, but we have shown the world that we are a bullying empire. That's why in spite of the Islamic Terrorism, the US still ranks number one as the biggest threat to world peace.

On the 7th, it is crucial to understand that there were no direct attacks on civilians, only collateral damage. Out of the 1148 total names on haaret dataset, 473 military and 675 were civilians. Ratio of civilians to military personnel killed on the 7th was 1 . 4 : 1 - lower than any of the iTf "mowing" operations, which has a ratio of 7 : 1 According to UN OCHA data from 2008 to 2022; The collateral damage on the 7th was significantly lower than any of the ITf "mowing" operations, which had a ratio of 7:1 with 1,023 military personnel out of 6,541 total. On the 7th, with 473 military (418 were iTf military personnel, 55 belonged to the police) out of 1148 total, the ratio of civilians to military personnel was a mere 1.4:1 When including all casualties, not just deaths, the collateral damage ratio of the "mowing" operations is a staggering 162:1 From the 161,233 accumulated civilian casualties over only 14 years of "mowing" operations. A 162 :1 ratio means that for every 162 civillians, 1 military personnel is a casualty. The 7th had a ratio of 1.4:1, more than a hundred times lower. The 473 are - 55 soldiers, 13 privates, 59 corporals, 200 sergeants (45 of whom were sergeant majors), 48 commanders, 32 lieutenants, 5 lieutenant colonels, 6 colonels, 37 officers, 10 inspectors, 6 intendents, and 2 Lance Corp. This was a military defeat, and they are taking it out on the rest.

This is relevant because of the Oded Yinon Plan. They are following scripture, the word עוֹלֵל, ʿôlēl which means 'Babe, infant, little one, a suckling' occurs 21 King James Bible Verses Of these verses: “Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.” -Psalm 137:9 “Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.”-1 Samuel 15:3 “Therefore I am full of the fury of the LORD; I am weary with holding in: I will pour it out upon the children abroad, and upon the assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days.” -Jeremiah 6:11 “Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up.” -Hosea 13:16 The other verses are not much different. Infact it is always in association with violence. Indeed these verses are the reason why in the Crusades the sense of pious rejoicing at massacre does not appear to be the product of later theologizing; it is also found, in the account of the eye-witness Raymond of Aguilers: “in the Temple and porch of Solomon, men rode in blood up to their knees and bridle reins. Indeed, it was a just and splendid judgment of God that this place should be filled with the blood of the unbelievers, since it had suffered so long from their blasphemies.” In fact, Raymond continues, “This day, I say, will be famous in all future ages, for it turned our labours and sorrows into joy and exultation; this day, I say, marks the justification of all Christianity, the humiliation of paganism, and the renewal of our faith.” Another account by a chronicler and eyewitness-priest, Albert of Aachen, describes the killing of fleeing women, and depicts crusaders as:: “seizing [infants who were still suckling] by the soles of their feet from their mothers’ laps or their cradles…and dashing them against the walls or lintels of the doors and breaking their necks […] they were sparing absolutely no gentile of any age or kind.”The incoherence inherent in a stranger to Abraham calling the children of Abraham gentiles notwithstanding, this account evokes the very same Psalm 137:9 imprecation against Babylon, in Latin, “beatus qui tenebit et adlidet parvulos tuos ad petram.” This is the polar opposite in the Quran in Surah Al-Tanwir, literally "The Englightenining" Surah, Aya 8-9, we have the death of a newborn is mentioned amongst the penultimate signs of the end of times, emphasizing the gravity of such an action. That child, now resurrected, is asked for what wrong doing was she murdered. This is to emphasize that she had done nothing wrong, for she had done nothing wrong and this is the day of retribution where those who omitted the evil are to be punished. This is the polar opposite in the Qur'an, Surah Al-Baqara Aya 190, which exhorts to fight unbelievers and not be "Aggressors", in the commentary of what it means to be aggressors, this was stated Al-Hasan Al-Basri stated that transgression (indicated by the Ayah): "includes mutilating the dead, theft (from the captured goods), killing women, children and old people who do not participate in warfare, killing priests and residents of houses of worship, burning down trees and killing animals without real benefit." This is also the opinion of Ibn `Abbas, `Umar bin `Abdul-`Aziz, Muqatil bin Hayyan and others. Muslim recorded in his Sahih that Buraydah narrated that Allah's Messenger said: "Fight for the sake of Allah and fight those who disbelieve in Allah. Fight, but do not steal, commit treachery, mutilate, or kill a child, or those who reside in houses of worship." It is reported in the Two Sahihs that Ibn `Umar said, "The Prophet forbade killing women and children." بابتداء القتال أو بقتال من نهيتم عن قتاله من النساء والشيوخ والصبيان والذين بينكم وبينهم عهد أو بالمثلة أو بالمفاجأة من غير دعوة "To kill those whom you were forbidden to from women, elderly, children and those whom betwixt you is a treaty or custom or by surprise or without cause" -Tafsir Al-Zamakshari of the meaning of Aggressors in the Aya More hadith from Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah: حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ شَيْخٍ، مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ مَوْلَى لِبَنِي عَبْدِ الْأَشْهَلِ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا بَعَثَ جُيُوشَهُ قَالَ: «§لَا تَقْتُلُوا أَصْحَابَ الصَّوَامِعِ» "Do not kill the dwellers of monasteries" حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنْ جُوَيْبِرٍ، عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ قَالَ: كَانَ «§يُنْهَى عَنْ قَتْلِ الْمَرْأَةِ، وَالشَّيْخِ الْكَبِيرِ» سَعْدٍ قَالَ: «§نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ قَتْلِ النِّسَاءِ وَالذُّرِّيَّةِ، وَالشَّيْخِ الْكَبِيرِ الَّذِي لَا حَرَاكَ بِهِ» "The prophet forbids the killing of women, children, and the elderly" This is the polar opposite in the Qur'an, Surah Al-Anfal Ayah 61 in which even oath breaking deniers/unbelievers are allowed to sue for peace states if the unbelievers they ask for peace, give it to them. The modifiable testament testament commands indiscriminate killing, genocide, plunder, mutilation, enslavement, or torture of enemies, including women, on the other hand.Surah Al-Baqara Aya 190 limits war to those who fight against Muslims, prohibits transgression, and implies respect for human dignity and life Indeed it is what precedes the famous "sword verse", always cited out of context. God did bring down the Qur’an, Mohamed is his Messenger.

I remember listening to an old Opie and Anthony clip where they more or less said Ben is used to being at Hollywood parties where almost everyone agrees with him and/or wants to suck up to him so no one ever challenges his views. He's not used to debating with someone who A) is more informed than him on this issue and B) is not afraid of telling him off so he gets pissed because that never happens to him in his day to day life. It sort of reminds me of an Adam Corolla story where Adam had a huge, screaming match with a guy because Adam, to make a long story short, told this dude "fuck you" and the dude blew up with rage because, while some people get told "fuck you" every day, this guy turned out to be a high-powered Hollywood agent who was used to people kissing his ass and freaked out when after getting cussed at.

@@mznxbcv12345 My friend, I can see instantly that your numbers are incorrect. You give a breakdown of years between 2008 and present day which is nowhere near 161,233. The 161,233 Palestinian deaths, whilst tragic, are not from the last 14 years of mowing the lawn operations. Far from it, this number is actually all Palestinian deaths since 1948, including wars and even includes violence perpetrated by non-Israeli groups such as Black September (3,400 Palestinians killed by Jordan) and the War of the Camps (5,000 Palestinians killed by Lebanese Islamic militias). Look it up!! Yes, we can all find verses from any religion, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism etc which would seemingly support violence or support tolerance and peace. That is not to say that other religious, or non-religious groups for that matter, do not carry out violence, but the most important thing is their behaviour and actions which can be evidenced directly. Conservative estimates suggest the Armenian, Greek and Assyrian Genocides by the Ottomans Islamic Empire in the 1900s killed 600,000, 300,000 and 300,000 respectively. Those are conservative/lower estimates. More recently, in Muslim countries, Muslims themselves have killed upwards of 500,000 in Syria and 500,000 in Yemen. Not to mention genocides of the Yazidis, the Darfur Genocide and then the ongoing persecution by Muslims of Christians and other minorities in Nigeria, Egypt, Turkey, Iran, Iraq etc etc. There are many other examples and cases I could mention. I understand you may be emotionally driven and are trying to prove a point, but unfortunately your selective use of religious quotes means little in the face of evidence and your statistics are just false.

A: Zero times. Q: In the last one hundred years, how many western nations have sent thousands of armed soldiers into muslim nations to overthrow their governments, torture their citizens, kill hundreds of thousands of their people, bomb their cities, conquer their societies and take the profits of their natural resources for themselves and the dictators they install in power? A: Dozens of times. Name a muslim nation. I'll tell you when they were attacked. Give me a decade in the 20th century, I'll give you a list of Muslim nations that were attacked by the west during that period. Whatever anyone's views on Israel are, the very creation of Israel as a modern state was the end result of an act of white Europeans being horribly aggressive against semitic people in Europe. The backlash against that racism resulted in many European jews going south and taking out an act of aggression and terror against a native population of muslim people living in a land which had been called Palestine for decades. The muslim population were suddenly deemed unworthy of living on their land they and their ancestors had been living on since time immemorial because they weren’t jewish. Israel's race baiting, extremely violent settler movement has brought in hundreds of thousands of religious Europeans and extremist Americans who believe they have a "right" to take away a muslim family’s land and home....because they had an ancestor that was jewish and the land therefore belongs to them. Yes…the racist, violent, Israeli government has decided, with the backing of the violent empire, my own country, United States, that they have a “god given” right to take away any muslim family's home....whenever they chose to. What year is this?? It sounds more like the ancient crusades. Of course, If you dare to be honest about all of this, if you dare to point out a view that looks at the facts in a balanced and even way and doesn’t adhere to what this brainwashed society tells you you must believe,…you are called "antisemitic.” Why? Because that is the only thing they have left as a defense. After all of the excuses for their aggression and violent horrors have been examined and exposed….the last defense many have is to claim “You hate me because I’m Jewish”….or because I’m a Christian. Christian zionism is has a great deal to do with what fuels Israel’s ability to be vicious and cruel. Just imagine if the situation was the other way around, and western nations such as the US and UK had been experiencing what muslim nations have been receiving from the western nations for the last 100 years. Not only would there be more extremist views against Muslims in general, but western women would have less rights, less power and minorities would receive even more discrimination and oppression. If western nation’s governments had been overthrown by Muslim led nations, outspoken religious leaders would be controlling our governments today and those who rely on iron age theology would be dictating the nature of our political and social life. The western world, including Israel, is filled to the brim with blind, privileged, self-righteous idiots who have no idea how the world really works or why much of the developing world is such a mess. media.giphy.com/media/eTH6uICbjrc9G/giphy.gif CHRISTIANS MORE SUPPORTIVE OF TORTURE THAN NON-RELIGIOUS AMERICANS religiondispatches.org/christians-more-supportive-of-torture-than-non-religious-americans/ Churchgoers Most Supportive of Iraq War news.gallup.com/poll/21937/protestants-frequent-churchgoers-most-supportive-iraq-war.aspx

Criticising a religion is not demonising of its followers. They're vastly different things. Criticising a belief is no different than criticising political beliefs, it's all a matter of opinion therefore it should be able to be criticised. Also, criticising a religion is not racism, racism is "prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior." Islam is not a race therefore it is not racism.

He isn’t on a lot of things. He’s looking at it wrong, I haven’t met a muslim who supports isis or terrorism in general and I grew up 40 mins away from mecca. Also, Islam having the punishment for apostasy and adultery being death is true, although I don’t believe its practiced anywhere but banana republics. The way that people should look at it is, that muslims are just simply more religious than most, and one of the reasons for that, is that muslims generally come from countries that are either in war or poverty and people from those backgrounds are usually more religious or radical (think medieval europe). Because if you look at these punishments they’re identical to whats in the Old Testament. Islam in itself isn’t uniquely violent as a religion, but muslims are uniquely religious if that makes sense. And just to clear something up, terrorism has never been permitted in islam, and if you look at islamic history, there’s really nothing similar to whats going on today.

Also you missed the part where I said I was strongly against apostasy laws anywhere in the world. Muslim majority countries are post colonial construct nation states which are relatively newer in their development. The reality is that the Western Empires were doing the colonization and the majority of the Muslim world just got their independence from years of enslavement, genocide, and oppression less than a century ago. Just like it took the USA hundreds of years to end slavery and they are yet still working on racism it will take Muslim majority countries many many years to come to fruition.

+Taxtro Well, of course. The Catholic Church is a Christian institution still dominated mainly by white people from Europe and North America, with currently the first Pope from South America - but he's an Italian expatriate. What's crucial about understanding these people is that they use the 'progressive stack' method of validating or invalidating opinions. They make distinctions in every attribute a person has (ironically, that makes them incredible racists and sexists), and they side with whoever they deem more oppressed. Muslims are in a unique position in this system: they come down heavily on women, homosexuals, apostates and so forth, but they are almost always non-white and are also a non-Christian minority, which puts them right at the top of the 'progressive stack'. Thus, they are 'to be protected'.

@DrunkOfficeTea 7 жыл бұрын

-_DiGiTaL _- Okay then let me ask you this. If Muslims are not a race, then which group is? Some people might immediately point to Black people, and say, “that is definitely a race. Look at their skin colour.” But, to be exact, Black people are not a race either. Neither, for that matter, are White people. Okay, now you might wonder about Jewish people? Certainly they are a race, right? Science proves they aren't like Whites and Blacks are not a race either. And what about Asians? Are they a race? Nope. Asians are not a race. The Indigenous People of America, a race? Nope, not a race. You see, there is no such thing as race or races, traditionally understood. Scientists long ago proved that race is not a biological reality but a myth, a socially constructed concept. Yet, despite the data, human beings have been programmed to associate specific things to certain “racial groups”; things like intelligence, work ethic, family values, and behavior. As such, we have been brainwashed to think that some groups are inherently better than others. Race - as one of my favorite sociologists, the late Stuart Hall put it - is a “floating signifier,” meaning that it is a fluid concept which has specific connotations during certain moments in history. Races, in short, have never been exclusively biologically determined but rather politically constructed by powerful people, usually dominant groups in societies. According to Hall, there is a new type of racism “cultural racism,” which is my focus here. Racism is no longer about race (skin colour) but culture. People are bothered and discriminated against not (simply) because of the colour of their skin (or other phenotypes) but because of their beliefs and practices associated with some “imagined culture.” Cultural racism, therefore, happens when certain people perceive their beliefs and customs as being culturally superior to the beliefs and customs of other groups of people. Cultural racism, in-turn, reproduces the idea of “the hierarchy of cultures,” meaning, in the context of current affairs, that “our” Western culture is superior to “their” Islamic culture. This way of thinking is problematic because it essentializes diverse classifications like “Westerners” and “Muslims.” It creates a binary of “Western = civilized” and “Islamic = uncivilized.” Bobby Sayyid, another favorite thinker of mine, argues that Islamophobia is undoubtedly a form of racism. He regards it as a type of racism that “takes up the white man’s burden for the new American century. It is a humanitarian intervention, not a mission civilisatrice; (Islamophobia) only wants to spread democracy not to expropriate resources; it does not want to exterminate ignoble savages, only to domesticate unruly Muslims.” In this context, the U.S. invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan can be treated as wars driven by cultural racism. Bush wanted to spread “democracy” and “liberate” Muslims, particularly women, among other things. Muslims, he theorized, were incapable of developing these “culturally superior” ways of life on their own, so they must be molded and trained to be more like “us,” the civilized people. If racism represents systemic oppression based upon preconceived notions (or stereotypes) of particular social groups, then the U.S. government is most definitely guilty of racism. To be specific, cultural racism.

He has not really delved deeply into Muslim history or even travelled to many Muslim countries. I have listened to pretty much all his debates on Islam. The problem with having an ignorant view of history is that you fail to realize how things came to transpire and why things are the way they are specifically in the Muslim world. You should listen to his debate with Fareed Zakaria (available online and on his podcast) where he clearly lost and it shows his ignorance on issues such as history, politics, and socioeconomics.
