Re: Go Back To School And Study!!!

you know what we need... mr qureshi to put things right

Re: Go Back To School And Study!!!

Gammay, that’s Mustafa Qureshi..don’t be a sinner.

7000 went for protest? and how many went for prayers :hehe: I wish I had that kind of time to just chill, protest and have a day out.

Re: Go Back To School And Study!!!

If they had only restricted their protest to marching they would have been revered.

Re: Go Back To School And Study!!!

maybe next time such millat/qaum/ummah ka dard rakhnay walay 7000 show up, they should be made to clean the streets. if they have so much free time, lets make them use it.

as far as the morons messing up a christian school...I say ppl like this should be arrested and fined and then made to reconstruct that school and build three others.

Protests in Lahore

I was just watching it on tv and its so disturbing. The mob is looting shops and burning anything and everything in its way. Police is using tear gas and the mob was trying to set Punjab Assembly building on fire.

Why can't we protest peacefully ?
And they're not even protesting against the govt, they're protesting against a whole different country. I'm very disappointed.
2 of them are already dead, they were trying to enter a bank when the gaurds shot at them. :(

Re: Protests in Lahore

and now the reporter is telling that there might be a curfew imposed in some areas of Lahore :(

Re: Protests in Lahore

Idiots.

Re: Protests in Lahore

awwwwwwww, i miss the curfew days in Karachi. :(

Re: Protests in Lahore

Such stupid morons. They damaged PIA building!! why? They damaged a freaking travel agency and burnt assembly building! My car is damaged too. Thankfully I drove away successfully from a barrage of stones.

We dont deserve to be allowed to protest. We are damaing our own effing home and city.

Re: Protests in Lahore

Re: Protests in Lahore

Re: Cartoons And The Muslim Rancor

O' passionate one,

some of your zealot buddies are burning and looting stores in Lahore today. What would the unemployed and unemployable know?!

Re: Cartoon related threads/Protests (all threads merged)

Saby, I'm glad to hear that you made it out of their safely.

This rioting is absolutely ridiculous. Do these people even know why they are rioting? I find it hard to believe this is due to the cartoons alone. Sounds like they are just going buck wild. :(

Re: Cartoon related threads/Protests (all threads merged)

and the rioters in lahore are chanting “death to america.” ???

apparently it escaped their notice that these cartoons were published in denmark and that they were condemned by america.

the reaction is now becoming very confusing to me. should u support ppl’s anger when they are using this incident as an excuse to hate the entire west?

if u do support this, how can u then condemn those in the west who use the riots as an excuse to hate all muslims?

respecting religion means burning buildings and killing ppl?

also, when u say others do not respect their religion because they dont react the way muslims do, are u also saying that the only way for a non-muslim to respect her religion is to respect that religion the way muslims do theirs? this ignores the fact that each religion is very different and calls 4 a different mode of respect. i thought islam was tolerant, but it does not sound like tolerance when we expect other religions to behave exactly like islam.

maybe you’ll say, “but these cartoons were not acts of tolerance, so why should we tolerate the ppl who thought they were ok?” ok, should muslims only be tolerant so long as others are tolerant? are you saying that it’s ok to ignore/lower/debase the principles of islam if people of other religions don’t show tolerance???

this thread depresses me very much.

No but focusing on places like iran, cartoons come out quite often that portray jews in very nasty ways. if we’re going 2 hold 2 a standard of respect for religion (if not the politics of those who are religious), then let’s not be hypocritical about it. show respect for religion, period. don’t just demand it for islam. don’t just get upset when it’s islam that’s being insulted. get upset when any religion is insulted.

then again the problem is, right to speak out against whatever you like is a right of citizens in the west. it’s what allows them to protest the iraq war, 4 instance. if you step in and say “but you can’t disrespect x y or x” then you’re opening the door for preventing ppl from disrespecting other things like war. bcoz everyone has a different idea of what shouldn’t be disrespected, and u can’t be sure that the govt (which will probably make the decisions) would decide 2 listen only to what you think should be off-limits to free speech. and thats the real problem with limiting free speech to prevent insulting ppl’s religion.

i will say that it’s not surprising that ppl in undemocratic nations don’t see the point of protesting through a letter writing campaign, because obviously such ideas make sense only to ppl who believe their individual voices count and can maybe influence their govt. but also i find it disturbing that so many guppies living in the west look on riots and burnings and killings and feel ok defending these actions. seems to me that if you want 2 condemn the cartoons as inciting violence and mockery, then u’ve also got to condemn the rioters for inciting violence and mockery!

a little sense ppl, plz. none of us are at war here, we can talk 2 each other politely. and just think, if we cant find common ground, isnt that a really bad sign about the future? :frowning:

Re: Cartoon related threads/Protests (all threads merged)

Most of these fools in fact know nothing of Islam. I doubt they (some) are even doing this because they are offended or feel it's wrong to mock a faith.

They probably get kicks out of being pathetic morons.

The essence of Islam being peace. Sheesh.

(ps saby glad to know you're ok)

Re: Cartoon related threads/Protests (all threads merged)

The hypocrite who really did make the cartoons was himself a jew - fleming rose.

Read this from David Duke’s page, how he confronts the jyllands posten. It is truly a sad state of affair when it comes to the western media, because they are biased.

Re: Cartoon related threads/Protests (all threads merged)

mashallah, what splendid scenes of religious fervour we are seeing. a befitting expression of love, damage someone else's halal ki kamai, burn a few buildings as candles to the beloved Messenger's name.

idiots. u know all people who hate Islam have to do if they want to set Muslims down a few million dollars (usually from the working class segment) is to insult them. we will froth into a rage, go red eyed, and punch ourselves in the groin, and expect somehow that the insulters would have learnt a lesson to mess with us.
