Depends who your asking? And there are always casulties of war, what if we had sat on our arses in WW1 / 2
The response was motivated by the current western clashes with islam!!! The cartoons wouldn't of been drawn if this conflict didn't exist. The global reaction wouldn't of occured if there wasn't a huge fear/mistrust of the west in the muslim world. the 2 are interlinked, you can't seriously try to suggest otherwise?!?!?
stop spliting camel hairs JJ!!! so u can say the "two are interlinked"??? why not go one further and blame whatever started the war and them blame the evolution of humans and then life on earth itself!!!!
so none of them are claiming benefits at all ,would i get preferential treatment if i went there to live?
Most moderate muslims in the west thought the cartoons were deeply insulting, but they didn't burn down the American/British embassys. The volatile reaction of the east is directly linked to western impirealism in the arab world, every act from Palestine to Afghanistan is another log on the fire.... Had there not been the current tensions in the middle east the cartoons would of passed unnoticed. And denmark is a very real presence in the war.
you're the last person left on earth who still believes Saddam had WMD On the bigger point though, the reason why the Muslims are rioting is not really the cartoons, it's what we've done/are still doing in Iraq, like bombing wedding parties thinking it's a terrorist meetup, what we've done in Afghanistan, what we've supported/turned a blind eye to in Palestine, basically 50 years of fucked up foreign policy in the Middle East, that's why Muslims are pissed off with the West and flying planes into skyscrapers etc... these cartoons are just the latest spark
reminds me of the fuck off back to Russia you commy twat comments I used to get when I was in Militant Tendency
well at least i don't spout off loads of pc bullshit showing that you feel really strongly about how shit we treat the east, and what do you do about it absolutly fuck all. either your lazy as fuck or you don't really give to shits about it.
Aha, well that's where you are wrong! The BBC itself admitted that those scenes shown after 9/11 were actually Muslims celebrating some festival or something!! It was complete and utter propoganda!!! Absolutely disgusting and i'm 100% certain that this kind of things happens all the time, I believed that myself at the time but it came back that it wasnt connected at all. Where was the big hoo har in the media? It never came!! Disgraceful!!! Anyway, the point you were making about the underlying support for terrorist action is completely falsified!
alex you need to stop assuming, how could you possibly know what I do? Also it is not your place to tell me what I can and cant think if I want to live in England! I'm just as british as you mate...
