To be against the attacks on Palestine

What happened in Israel was horrific by Hamas. But why are Palestinians being restricted, bombed, dehydrated and deprived of basic needs because of terrorists? Why is the world supporting Israel commiting war crimes?

Hamas are sick fucks to kill innocents. But it's like history repeating again. 9/11 caused millions of Iraqis killed for what?

Have we learned nothing from the past???

Ummm I never denied that jihadist terrorists exist. I said they shouldn't be calling themselves muslim

Yes you read all you need to read to justify what you want to say. Without reading the whole thing. Typical

I wish you all a peaceful and good day.

It's the same thing. You're denying that they are motivated by Islam.

Dolphin1111111111111111111111111 · 13/10/2023 14:27

No I'm saying they cherry pick and take things out of context to do what they want. That's what a terrorist is. A true Muslim who knows their texts and surahs wouldn't. That's what I'm saying

Dolphin1111111111111111111111111 · 13/10/2023 14:28

Read the bible and torah too please. Because it's not all rainbows ans butterflies there either

I am so sorry for these racist and anti Muslim slurs and insults being thrown at you.

The hypocrisy is unreal.

Dolphin1111111111111111111111111 · 13/10/2023 14:35

That's alright. It's not like I haven't had random comments from strangers walking down the road before for no reason. I couldn't care less really. I am that neighbour and friend who will go out of their way to help you or give you a hug when in need. I don't need random on the Internet to tell me who I am or what I think. I sleep well at night. I have friends of various ethnicities and religions and we all get along fine. The Internet is a crazy place. But thank you @Green777 it's not their fault. They are just writing what they think they know.

@Dolphin1111111111111111111111111

Its crazy that people are allowed to insult your religion like that and get away with it by MNHQ.

Glad to see it’s not getting you down 💐 we need more people like you in this world.

Dolphin1111111111111111111111111 · 13/10/2023 14:38

And you green! The thing is I have Said I haven't condoned what's happened to Israel. However I do condone what Israel are doing now.

Green777 · 13/10/2023 14:39

Apologies to MNHQ, I see they had there reasons to let those posts stand but they’ve been dealt with now.

Dolphin1111111111111111111111111 · 13/10/2023 14:39

I also haven't said anyone should die I haven't said anything about jews. I.dont think anything like what's happened should have happened. Nor do.any of the Muslims I have seen or heard or know. They have all condemned what it happening and are standing up for those who fo mot have any rights.

Green777 · 13/10/2023 14:40

@Dolphin1111111111111111111111111

I know and feel the same, we’d never condone Hamas and want peace. We condemn Hamas and the killing of any civilian. Shame others don’t do the same.

I think you are confusing the Torah, which is the first 5 books of what Christians call the 'Old Testament', and The Bible, which contains what Christians called the 'Old Testament' and the 'New Testament'.

Christians regards the OT as mainly a historical text (which can be quite bloody and vengeful because of the times it was written in) - as opposed to the New Testament which contains the peaceful teachings of Jesus Christ.

It is the latter that Christians try and follow.

I’d just ignore them now, they’ve shown their true colours.

Dolphin1111111111111111111111111 · 13/10/2023 14:42

@Tessofthebicyles I know. But the new testament also has violence in it and also changes depending on what version you read.

MCOut · 13/10/2023 14:42

Pollyputhekettleon · 13/10/2023 14:22

Why would you stand with someone who completely denies that jihadist terrorism exists? 'They're not real muslims!' - repeat ad infinitum every single time. That's not a 'peaceful' thing to do, it's a standard apologist line.

I genuinely don’t understand this point. The poster was clearly decrying jihadist terrorism as an illegitimate and not in keeping with Islam. Surely it is a good thing to reject attacking people as something that should be religiously encouraged.

Dolphin1111111111111111111111111 · 13/10/2023 14:43

I'm off anyways. Need to get my children from school.

Regardless, nothing is right, right now. Abd us arguing isn't helping anything.

I said what I wanted to say. Have a good day all

Yes, yes, no true Scotsman. I don't argue with religious people about their religion, I have paint I'd rather watch dry.

I believe the truth is important, that's why. It's important to understand Islamist terrorism.

So where does it exhort followers to attack and kill those that do not believe?

Crucifying Christ was violent and inhuman but it happened. It was a common (barbaric) punishment at the time.

That.
