BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

After a bomb blast by few individuals, the word** “ISLAMIC”** terrorists immediatly comes to the minds of alot of media people and the incident gets the biggest highlight on the top of the front page (with full coverage and details), but when later the culprits are found to be actually belonging to any other religon, no words of “Christian terrorists”, “Jew Terrorist” or “Hindue terrrists”…etc is seen in any of the newspapers, televisions, internet sites etc. Instead the news is mentioned (without much details) at the bottom corner of the 2nd or third page. Unfortunately alot of MUSLIMS have also been brain washed by media to think in the same manner.

In alot of cases, after a success of a religious muslim in any field, it is only the “ability” of that muslim which is mentioned irrespective of his religious practice, but if the same person fails anywhere, ISLAM pop ups again in the minds of the same people who were previously admiring him on his success by giving the credit to his abilities.

All non-muslims should not see the worst examples to judge ISLAM, but analyse how effectively the Prophet (saw) and all pious muslims utilized ISLAMIC teachings to achieve success in all fields of life, BECAUSE we never judge the latest model of Mercedes through the driving of a poor driver, instead we ask our best drivers to check the qualities and capabilities of that car.

Similarly the way you DON’T blame the BEST car when a poor driver hits it against the wall, you CAN’T judge ISLAM when a bad muslim commits a bad deed.

They are also blaming ISLAM for Pak’s ouster from the World Cup.

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

Submission, I don't think anyone blames Islam for a bad musim's deeds. (if they do then they are ignorant panchods lol)...... They say ISLAMIC TERRORISM because it is terrorism committed in the name of Islam... I guarentee you when Christian Fundamentalists start blowing themselves up resulting in civilian casualities, the media will use the term "Christian Terrorists" !

Some Hindus committed an act of terrorism in Gujrat in 2002 and much of the internatioal media and even the Indian media had articles against the Hindu Fundamentalists.. if the Hindus commit such acts over and over again over a period of many years... the term "Hindu Terrorism" will come up too !

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

Seriously though....it looks like there are just too many bad drivers driving this "BEST" car. I am not implying anything, but logically there must be reason why so many "bad drivers" appear to be driving this "car" and not "other cars".

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

Are you sure ? I remember that Just after 9/11, Bush said in his speach that this is beginning of a new crusade against muslims ! No one mentioned "Christian Terrorists" at that time.I think by now alot of Americans have themselves proved through alot of videos and evidences that Osama was an imaginary character and 9/11 was planned by Bush administration itself. Still they destroyed innocent people of Afghanistan who couldn't afford meals for two times, let alone planing a perfect attack on the world's BEST DEFENCE FORCE. Even for the sake of discussion, if I accept that a small group of muslims planned it, was it alright to kill many times more children and destroying many times more houses of people who didn't have any relation with the criminals.

Ok, the above is a controversial topic, so let us leave it. Let us come to a non-controversial topic of terrorism.

We all know that there were no "Weapons of Mass Destruction" in Iraq, when USA invaded it (apparantly for oil), no international media or UN called them terrorists.

We all know Jews invaded a part of Palestine after 2nd world war, to give it a name of "Israel". They claim that part to be their own on the basis of religious beliefs. No one called them "Jewish Terrorists" Instead USA is supporting them and all international channels are calling Plestine to be Terrorits

As far as blowing oneself is concerned, I ask you a simple question.( There is no offense in it, I am just asking you by puting you in their position, so you might understand that the act of blowing oneself is also controversial)

What if (God forbid) someone else having the same religon as yours committed a sin, but in the reaction of the enemy, your father,brother or son was butchered infront of you and your mother, wife, sister or daughter is raped infront of your eyes and than brutally killed. Also you know you don't have enough weapon, technology, man power or strength to take your revenge/ or do any harm to the people who ruined your life and house, when you know that all the members of your family were innocent.

^Would you sit calmy and think of a peaceful step to take your revenge or would you immediately do whatever you can do to take your revenge from those people

I am not asking a blank question, I have tried to search for the reasons behind such acts.

Kindly think on it

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

Everyone seems to be driving some sort of car...There are those driving some car in which millions have died...The same car BTW was responsible for killing millions in Japan, Germany and Vietnam...And continues to do in other parts of the world today, but since the advertising for that car is great, many ignorasnt people still buy it...

But then there is this car, which is extremely reliable, has a proven track record of being absolutely rock solid in reliability, but which the makers of the other car company are trying to malign by a massive propaganda campaign to tarnish its great reliability record...They have blown out of proportion the accidents caused by bad drivers and blamed the car instead...

However, more and more people who know the true capability of this car, are trusting it and acquiring it in droves...

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

You see, if you see the history and the present, this "CAR" has become popular and was adopted by the other users faster than any other car in the world. If you see the stats of any year, VERY less people using this Car" have ever left IT, but a LOT OF people who were previously using "ALL" the other cars in the world have adopted this CAR. WHY ? Still presently drivers using this car are brutally killed in thousands, everyday, in all parts of the world like Kashmir, Palestine, Chechnia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia...etc. but still more and more people around the world are accepting this car for "LIFE TIME"
What is so attractive in THIS car, even though the media is trying their best to stamp this car to be a "terrorist" car.

Kindly give me examples of bad drivers of this car to be more than the drivers of other major cars in the world ?

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

Its like asking for proof that the Sun rises in the East.

I am not getting into this argument....something that has taken place multiple times on this forum.

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

Dear brother, if you are giving your comments on the basis of what CNN and BBC shows about Islam and Muslims than I am afraid your sources are not very reliable. Kindly try to get information from other sources as well, which are not biased.

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

That requires reading and thinking outside of the propaganda box...Who's got time to do that...Islam equals terrorism, and that's that...

In Germany Jews were evil, and that was that...

All native Americans were animals, and that was that...

Just go with the flow...

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

you dont have to look far for proof, visit our rlgn forum or any other forum for that matter, few nut jobs (yes few) who bark all the time about media this and media that yet preach the destruction of other nations and countries and there own people because those people are against the fckd up mullahs. before you start asking for proof make sure you are ready to accept it,

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

Submission... one man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter.. right?
What you call the INTERNATIONAL MEDIA is actually the WESTERN MEDIA.. it will automtically have a bias against peoplle who are against the west.. the Jews are with the west.. so there will b llimited articles against the jews.. the extremist muslims openly diss the west ( + the attacks).. so ofcourse theres a slight bias against muslims.. if hindu fundamentalists start bombing new york (i dont think they will, just being hypothetical)... you will see the term HINDU TERRORISM come up...

Anyway.. I don't support Bush.. I know he didn't attack Iraq for WMDs.. thats just an excuse to get the public on his back.. I think he did it for 1) finishin off his daddy's unfinished business.. and 2) oil... He attacked Afghanistan to get rid of Al-qaeda's presence there... I agree with that.. the taliban+alqaeda had ruined afghanistan as a country and were using it as a breedin ground for terrorists (again, terrorists in my dictionary, freedom fighters or warriors of Islam in sum1 elses).. their setup needed to be demolished (its still not totally achieved).. and pls dont give me the theory about the Bush administration planning 9/11... i dont buy that.. there are conspiracy theories around every major world event.. most of them not true..

please give me a reference/link where Bush sr. said after the first iraq war that THIS IS A CRUSADE ... I can't find anything.. I never heard of it either...

I don't agree with your explanatios of why people blow themselves up.. I guarentee you most of the guys who blow themselves up are not doing it bcoz they saw their mothers raped and sons slaughtered.. they do it bcoz they are brainwashed by extremist mullas and believe they are doing it for the sunnah.. for islam.. for the prophet..

Blah.. gotta bounce.. more later.. if that...

Peace..

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

Kindly don't give such a statement when you don't know the actual reason. Never did the Prophet (saw) or the Quran taught anything like this.

Other than that it depends alot on the way you look at it and the sources you gain knowledge from.

If you see the history, Infact It was the American Government itself who gave rise to Taliban and people like Osama to fight against the Russians. All the weapons were actually given to them by USA. When that phase was over, they needed to demolished them because the same people who were previously good people suddenly became terrorists. (plz don't quote 9/11, which has become very obvious these days. Kindly search on internet about the videos released by USA organizations about how Bush administration planned ths event after it realized that Rapidly growing ISlam is USA and the rest of the world is the biggest threat to them)

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

Dude.. I didn't say the prophet or Islam taught things like that... No religion would preach that.. I'm just saying THIS IS WHAT THEY(suicide bombers) ARE THINKING !! when they blow themselves up THEY ARE THINKING THEY R DOING IT FOR ISLAM, FOR MUSLIMS, FOR THE SUNNAH.. thats exactly what i said bfore.. not that the prophet preached it...

Yep, I know about Taliban's history... it's all political.. USA wanted to weaken the Soviets and hence they funded whoever was against the Soviests.. now they are suffering themselves..

No Comment on the 9/11 controversy.. I don't want to get into it :)

PEACE !

Re: BIASED media blaming ISLAM for individual failures ?!?!

I agree with Vedic intellect...the actions are done in the name of Islam hence Islamic terrorists...Bradford riots were asian rioters cos it was a white/asian thing for instance...you have to look at what the accused is doing and why...

And naturally Western media is anti Islam tahts to be expected and understood...you will work to eliminate threats...
