Liberal Redneck - Muslim Ban
radical islamic terrorism is the usage of a rigid fundamentalist interpretation as a justification predicated on abysmal politics.
ill-thought and short sighted politics is the tinder.
hyper-extremist fundamentalism is the match.
ISIS would never even have existed without al qeada,who themselves would not have existed without US interventionism into:iran,egypt and saudi arabia.
and this is going back almost 70 years.
so lets cut the shit with apologetics towards americas horrific blunders in regards to foreign policy.actions have consequences,there is a cause and effect,and when even in the 50's the CIA KNEW,and have stated as much,that there would be "blowback" from americas persistent interventionism in those regions.which stated goals (in more honest times) was to destabilize,dethrone (remove leaders not friendly to american business) and install leaders more pliant and easily manipulated (often times deposing democratically elected leaders to install despots.the shah and sadam come to mind).
see:chalmers johnson-blowback
see: Zbigniew Brzezinski-the grand chessboard.
or read this article:
http://www.globalresearch.ca/america-created-al-qaeda-and-the-isis-terror-group/5402881
so to act like islamic radicals just fell from the fucking sky,and popped out from thin air,due to something that has been boiling for almost 70 years is fucking ludicrous.
radicalization of certain groups in populations have long been understood,and well documented.
and religion,though the most popular,and easiest tool to motivate and justify heinous acts of violence for a political goal,is not the SOLE tool.
nationalism is another tool used to radicalize a population.
see:the nazi party.
but it always comes down to:tribalism of one kind or another.
@transmorpher
so when you use this "ISIS themselves, in their own magazine (Dabiq) go out of their way to explain that they are not motivated by the xenophobia or the US fighting wars in their countries. They make specifically state that their motivation is simply because you aren't muslim. You can go an read it for yourself. They are self confessed fanatics that need to kill you to go to heaven. "
to solidify your argument,all i see is someone ignoring the history and pertinent reasons why that group even exists.
you may recall that ISIS was once Al qeada,and they were SO radical,SO fanatical and SO violent in their execution of religious zeal..that even al qeada had to distance themselves.
because,again...
religion is used as the justification to enact terrorism due to bad politics.
but the GOAL is always political.
you may remember that in the early 90's the twin towers were attacked and it was the first time americans heard of al qeada,and osama bil laden.
who made a statement back in 1993 and then reiterated in 2001 after 9/11 that the stated goal (one of them at least) was for the removal of ALL american military presence in saudi arabia (there was more,but it mostly dealt with american military presence in the middle east).
but where did this osama dude come from?
why was he so pissed at america?
just what was this dudes deal?
turns out he was already on the road to radicalization during the 80's.coming from an extremely wealthy saudi arabian family but had become extremely religious,and he saw western interventionism as a plague,and western culture as a disease.
he left the comforts of his extremely wealthy family to fight against this western incursion into his religious homeland.he traveled to afghanistan to join the mujahideen to combat the russians,who were actually fighting the americans in a proxy war.and WE trained osama.WE armed him and trained him in the tactics of warfare to,behind the scenes,slowly drain russia of resources in our 50 year long cold war.
how's that for irony.
osama was not,as american media like to paint the picture "anti-democratic or anti-freedom".he saw the culture of consumerism,greed and sexual liberation as an affront to his religious understandings.
this attitude can be directly linked to sayyid qtib from egypt.who visited the united states as an exchange student in 1954.now he wasnt radicalized yet,but when he returned to egypt he didnt recognize his own country.
he saw coco cola signs everywhere,and women wearing shorts skirts,and jukeboxs playing that devils music "rock and roll".
he feared for his country,his neighbors,his community.
just like a southern baptist fears for your soul,sayyid feared for the soul of his country and that this new "westernization" was a direct threat to the tenants laid down by islam.
so he began to speak out.
he began to hold rallies challenging the leadership to turn away from this evil,and people started to take notice,and some people agreed.
change does not come easy for some people,and this is especially true for those who hold strong religious ideologies.
(insert religion here) tends to be extremely traditional.
so sayyid started to gain popularity for his challenge if this new "westernization",and this did not go un-noticed by the egyptian leadership,who at that time WANTED western companies to invest in egypt.(that whole political landscape is totally different now,but back then egypt was fairly liberal,and moderately secular).
so instead of allowing sayyid to speak his mind.
they threw him in prison.
for 4 years.
in solitary.
well,he wasn't radicalized when he went IN to prison,but when he came OUT he sure was.
and to shorten this story,sayyid was the first founder of the muslim brotherhood,whose later incarnation broke off to form?
can you guess?
i bet you can!
al qeade
@Fairbs ,@newtboy and @Asmo have all laid out points why radicalization happens,and the conditions that can enflame and amplify that radicalization.
so i wont repeat what they have already said.
but let us take dearborn michigan as an example.
the largest muslim community in america.
how many terrorists come from dearborn?
how many radicals reside there?
how many mosque preach intolerance and "death to america"?
how many imams quietly sanction fatwas from the local IHOP against american imperialistic pigs?
none.
becuase if you live in stable community,with a functioning government,and you are able to find work and support your family,and your kids can get an education.
the chances of you become radicalized is pretty much:zippo.
the specific religion has NOTHING to do with terrorism.
religion is simply the means in which the justifications to enact violent atrocities is born.
it's the politics stupid.
you could do a thought experiment and flip the religions around,but keep the same political parameters and do you know WHAT we find?
that the terrorists would be CHRISTIAN terrorists.
or do i really need to go all the way back to the fucking dark ages to make my point?
it's
the
politics
stupid.
