It's the same old Islamophobia... the only good Muslim is a dead Muslim.
You condemn millions of Muslims by automatically suspect them of being "Hamas, Hezbollah or Al Qaeda"! But when the Catholic IRA blew up buildings in N Ireland, was the Pope in Rome responsible??? Or your local Catholic parish priest?
Those IRA members were terrorists and also Catholic.
those AlQaeda members were terrorists, and also Muslim.
You don't condemn all Catholics but you do condemn all Muslims.
You just keep reinforcing your bigotry.
If I was an Englishman in Northern Ireland, I would certainly be profiling the Irish since they have the history of bombing English interests. FYI, the Irish Republican Army(IRA) was a nationalist movement not a Catholic conquest to spread Catholicism. It just so happened Northern Ireland was mostly Catholic. It's one of the biggest lies and misconceptions. The fighting was between the Unionist(mostly protestant) and Nationalist(mostly catholic), and the IRA didn't discriminate, it had both Protestant and Catholic members. So given your terrible example, since the IRA wasn't a religious conquest, I would profile Irish Catholics because they were predominant in Northern Ireland and they were the group that felt they were not getting fair representation in the government and rioting in the streets. My so-called "islamophobia" is at least steeped in fact and reality. Your Irish Catholic example in attempt to make all things relative is completely inaccurate and false. Next? |
