Ahmedinijad expects the slaves of USA to budge? NO WAY!!

Al-Quraan [Shakir 6:65] Say: He has the power that He should send on you a chastisement from above you or from beneath your feet, or that He should throw you into confusion, (making you) of different parties; and make some of you taste the fighting of others. See how We repeat the communications that they may understand.

No point talking to Saudies as long as they follow Sir Humphrey's version of Islam.

''No point talking to Saudies as long as they follow Sir Humphrey's version of Islam.''

Good point Syed. Different worshippers hold differing interpretations of islam and the quran. That is because there is ambiguity in the writings; it is subject to interpretation.

If these words are the words of truth and clarity from a perfect and almighty creator, there would be no ambiguity. The words and message would exhibit perfect, unequivocal clarity, but they do not.

Perhaps your god needs to brush up on his writing skills?

(Incidentally, why didn't this perfect almighty creator also publish his perfect works deep in the Amazonian jungle for the benefit of those people?)

'I would like known why 80 % percent of the world antisemitic.'

Indeed. I would like to know why comparable proportions of people believe in horoscopes and other fantastic deities. Maybe they are also anti-semitic.

Could it all be because most people in the world are really, really, really smart? Are you one of those by any chance?

Better to communicate with car bombs and suicide bombers, eh? Have at it... Just stay over there.

Arabs also fall under the linguistic/ethnological heading of 'semite'. Considering how news-worthy they've been lately, I wonder how that reflects on T Smith's sentiment?

Belief systems based on lunatic fairy tales be they Muslim, Christian, Jewish or any other of the hundreds of simplistic dogmas are the real problem for all of us. All the time we are running around shouting that this dead peasent (prohet) or that had the ear of a god we will always remain locked into these stupid conflicts.

SP4: Time for the tinfoil hatsMar 4th, 2007 - 18:23:21

Perhaps the Saudi's could ask why Iran, surrounded by people who are non-threatening, need to threaten their neighbors with medium range missiles, submarines and, next, nuclear weapons.

The Iranians tried to bring Saudi Arabia into the Iran-Iraq war, in the 80's. The Saudi A/F was sufficient to ward them off.

As for the rest of you tinfoil hat wearing jihadists, like all totalitarians, you constantly need a false enemy to keep yourselves in power. Hitler knew this, and you sound a lot like him.

Jews are pacifists. The problem is, real pacifists WILL fight if provoked.
