Re: Gaza
Well, I don't know where to pick up on from here, since I have been out of it for the past week.
However, I would like to comment on some things that have happened while I was in London.
First off, the protesting. The groups that run the protests, like Hizb ut-Tahrir are some of the most politically minded groups around. They care nothing for what Islaam is about, only their own personal goals, which I don't even know are. I happen to be wandering through Hyde Park on Sunday, and there was something being set up by the arch. So, I went over and checked it out, and it was them setting up for their protest against the Arab governments.
I can't stand this type of garbage that they spit out. In my eyes, they are some of the biggest cowards in the world, because their leaders live in the UK and call for the overthrowing of Arab governments - which in itself is something that is absolutely not in any way, shape or form, from Islaam. They fled from the Middle East because they people don't want to hear their crap. So, no they can sit in the UK and have 'freedom of speach'. Whatever.
Two, and this is related to the above, is that the results of protesting by these misguided individuals is the destruction of property, they likes of which we saw when they marched to the Israeli Embassy on Saturday, then destroyed Starbucks and a bunch of other buildings around it.
Is this what Islaam represents? Does this do anything to promote the whole 'religion of peace' message? Does anyone think that the owner of Starbucks will be drawn closer to Islaam or further away from it due to what has happened to his shop?
Then these people wonder why they have it difficult in the West. Which brings me to an actual incident that happened to me yesterday. I went to watch the changing of the gaurd, and I was leaving I was stopped by the police for 'suspicious' activities! They said that it looked like I 'muttered' something into my iphone headset. Give me a break!!!! I can not help but to think it was that I am olive skinned and have a beard. This is because out of the thousands of people there, I was the one picked out. I am sure that others get 'randomly' searched but I didn't see it. And the reason they stopped me was under the 'terrorism' code. So it was clear that they profiled me to perhaps be a terrorist, because I was alone, with a bookbag, and talking into my phones headset. Okay, what makes me different than the thousand of other people there who were doing the same thing? Like I said, skin color and a beard. It is sad because I really enjoyed London, but this left a bad taste in my mouth.
So, onto Gaza. Now the ignorant masses of Muslims around the world are holding protests and complaining that no one is doing anything about Gaza. Where was all the outcry for the past six years over the Iraqi's being killed? Or the Afghani's? Or if we take it back a bit - Chechnia? You get the point.
These people are accusing the Arab governments for not doing anything, but really what can they do? They have no weapons, so they can't fight. Political support is not going to do anything. In fact, the scholars in Saudi don't even like Hamas because they are just another political group, that really is more in line with a terrorist organization than a political party. If they really had the people and 'Islaam' in mind, then when they won the election, why didn't they set up a Shar'iah government? Because they don't care about Islaam, they just care about political power.
While I think that it is wrong what Israel is doing, I am only a Hamas supporter because they are the legit government there. I don't care for them because look at the result of what their actions have causes worldwide. Their actions have caused terrorism to occur in various forms.
