OBSESSION VIDEO

Page history last edited by PBworks 15 years, 6 months ago

First off let me just express that for some reason i find it hard to believe that cultures hate on the west when so many of muslims own people wish to escape to america for freedom.

by the way: a side note, watching the twin towers get attacked gives me the worst feeling in my stomach i have ever felt anyone have the same reaction???

 

I think the big question here is. "where did we learn that inflicting fear on others makes us more powerful?"

are innocent people the real target?

 

I find it hard to believe that "allah" which is a form of their God, believes the most honorable way to die, is to kill others while you kill yourself. Has this always been the case? So the idea that i am getting is religion=terrorisms to the islamic people. "FOr the sake of Allah"? I have to agree with a quote from the movie of the Islam religion will kill all the other religions through the Jihad fighters. How did we ever let it get to this point? I find it hard to believe that in this day and age people can be so radical within our religion. The islams need to get into a time machine and take all of this terroristic bullshit back to the ancient times.

 

((please cue the goosebumps after watching those creepy "music videos"))

 

Americans are "beasts" while the Islams live and breath hatred. (not all, might i add)

The Islams are upset because america has invaded their countries and are inflicting fear upon them. However, we wouldn't be there in the first place without a reason. We are there because they killed thousands of americans. That is why we are there because of 9/11. The joy they felt because of our suffering, what they did should us should not go unpunished. Their youth doesn't even know what they are cheering for. It makes me sick.

Also, they shout "USA and UK you will pay!" exactly what are we paying for? that we don't support their religion?

DAMN THE MAGNIFICENT NINETEEN!!!!

we know they attacked us in our own country, however, did we plan this? no, they are monsters that need to stay out of our country. They came and attacked us because they don't believe what we believe. If they don't like our policies, then rant and rave in our own damn country.

 

World War II i feel shouldn't be an issue, US and the UK went into the war to free people under the influence of Hitler, we liberated the death camps and ended the domination of a monster. I don't care what anyone says but thats the bottom line. We could have done it sooner, but we got it done and freed who we could.

The fact that Nazism is being practiced and praised again by the Islams is extremly and scary to me. Where did this duty of killing under Allah or whoever come from?

 

I agree "the worst from of child abuse is teaching a child to hate"

Are these kids insane? I am seriously disturbed.

 

My whole take on terrorism and this video, is that i will be as arrogant as i can be. My family came from ireland and italy to escape from Hitler domination during World War II and both of my grandfathers served in the military. My father is a Captain for the Tampa Police department and takes pride on supporting his country. I absolutely feel the same way. I am an American, and i am Catholic. If people protest America and don't agree with our politics and our government and people then honestly, as blunt as this sounds, "Get the hell out."

 

I love the last sentence. Why would anyone want to stay in America if they hated us so much? --ALEX MOSER

 

Response:

I'd like you to explain this: "If people protest America and don't agree with our politics and our government and people then honestly, as blunt as this sounds, 'Get the hell out.'"

 

What about the abolitionists? What about the suffragists who fought for women to be granted the right to vote? What about the many Civil Rights activists who protested Jim Crow laws? Would you have told them to 'get the hell out' of our country? Historically, America was shaped by dissent and reformation. Telling people who "protest America and don't agree with our politics and our government" to "get the hell out" is a demonstration of extreme ignorance.

I agree with Jesse America would not be America with out the protest that people had. That is a really extreme statement, there is change for the better that can always be made America is not perfect, no country is.-Amelia

 

OKAY: when i wrote this, it was while i was watching the video and i never really made like a "fianl draft" i was just writing what i felt at that moment, let me clearify...

When i wrote that statement i actually remember that scene in the video, it was when the islams were on a street corner in new york city preaching about their religion and burning the american flag. what i meant by making that statement was if the islams loath america and our government and politics so much, then why are they wasting their time trying to make a point in New York of all places? they should just go back to their country where their views will actually be appreciated and listened to. My whole take on their point of view is if you want to hate on america and the uk and what not then keep it to yourself and do it in your own country. Get out of ours.

 

There are a lot of variables that could be at play here, so I'm not going to find some random instance to bitch about.  I will say that I do disagree with Americans being arrogant in ownership of America from looking at history (native americans, slaves, etc.)  It's been time since then but American's are like no other nation.  We are ALL immigrants, I don't care if your family came here 1 year ago or 100.  It's not fair to say statements like, "Get out of ours," its no better yours than theirs, we're all immigrants here.  Judging by history, our negative contributions outweigh middle eastern negative contribution.  To be stereotypical, which most Americans are to middle easterners, Americans have built a country with slaves and nearly wiped out an entire race.  When's the last time you've known a 100% native american?  I don't think Osama could do that.  Be sure to empathize, and view both sides of the story.  Just like most white American's are more than likely saying, "My family didn't own slaves," Middle easterners are doing the same thing, "My family doesn't kill for Allah."
