Christopher Hitchens: Let me give you an example. From Mr. Jefferson - since you asked me to mention my book, which I'll happily do - in 1788, when the United States was barely a country, it was having its sailors taken as slaves by the Barbary states, the states of the Ottoman Empire in North Africa.
Bill Maher: Tripoli. The shores of Tripoli.
Christopher Hitchens: Tripoli. And its ships stopped, and its crews carried off into slavery. We estimate one and a half million European American slaves taken between 1750 and 1850, Jefferson and Adams went to their ambassador in London and said, "why do you do this to us? The United States has never had a quarrel with the Muslim world of any kind. We weren't in the crusages, we weren't in the war in Spain. Why do you do this to our people and our ships? Why do you plunder and enslave our people?"
And the ambassador said very plainly, "because the Qu'ran gives us permission to do so. Because you are infidels. And that's our answer."
And Jefferson said, "well, in that case, I will send a navy which will crush your state." Which he did. And a good thing too.
Islamic fundamentalism is not created by American democracy. It's a lie to say so. It's a masochistic lie, and it excuses those who are the real criminals, and it blames us for the attacks made upon us."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Barbary_War
"It was written in their Koran, that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful to plunder and enslave; and that every mussulman who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to paradise. He said, also, that the man who was the first to board a vessel had one slave over and above his share, and that when they sprang to the deck of an enemy's ship, every sailor held a dagger in each hand and a third in his mouth; which usually struck such terror into the foe that they cried out for quarter at once."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbary_slave_trade
Robert Davis estimates that slave traders from Tunis, Algiers, and Tripoli enslaved 1 million to 1.25 million Europeans in North Africa, from the beginning of the 16th century to the middle of the 18th century.

Islam doesn't hate the west because we're "imperialists" or "colonizers." That's the excuse, not the reason. It hates the west because we're kuffar, and it has a divine mandate to destroy us. Starting with the Jews.
https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/USC-MSA/Volume-4/Book-56/Hadith-791/
Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saying, “The Jews will fight with you, and you will be given victory over them so that a stone will say, 'O Muslim! There is a Jew behind me; kill him!’”
Islamic fundamentalism is not caused by the west. It's caused by Islam. It's endemic to Islam. It's the entire point of Islam.
Stop faffing around, making up stupid, self-flagellating excuses for why we deserve to be attacked. There's nothing we could ever do to make Islam happy and still resemble the west. The only acceptable response is unconditional surrender and submission.
https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/USC-MSA/Volume-4/Book-52/Hadith-196
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah 's Apostle said, " I have been ordered to fight with the people till they say, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah,' and whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah,' his life and property will be saved by me except for Islamic law, and his accounts will be with Allah, (either to punish him or to forgive him.)"
It's not bigotry to hold Islam responsible for its actions; it's only bigotry to refuse to.

For over four decades, the Iranian people have suffered under the unrelenting death grip of the despotic, treacherous Islamic regime. Yet never before has the potential for liberation seemed as viable as it does now.

Shit got me so hot I had to make a meme about it. When you're in Saudi. You do as the Saudis do. Or you fucking die. We are more patient here than you would be of us. Too much so. You have taken our kindess for a weakness. No we do not share your values no more than you share ours. You refuse to adapt to our values. And yet here you are. Why? You have come to the wrong place. The West will not adapt to you. Get in line. Or get the fuck out. Make a fucking choice.

Just because Islamic Fundamentalism is not a serious issue in your country, does not give you the right to call me an Islamophobe for worrying about it.
Sincerely, An ex-Muslim who lives in a country that has an Islamic Fundamentalist-backed candidate in the upcoming election.

Here’s the thing about a totalitarian theocracy: since it tries to impose itself on every single aspect of civilians’ lives, it is incredibly - almost absurdly- oppressive. But the flip side to that is that almost anything you do can be considered an act of rebellion.
Not wearing headscarf? Rebellion
Dancing and singing? Rebellion
Kissing? Rebellion
Honking in your car? Rebellion
Hell in Iran just excisting openly is an act of rebellion.

friendly reminder that Sharia is just the word for canonical law in Islam (similar to how Halakha is canonical law in Judaism); there is nothing inherently sinister about it, and misusing it to mean “forcing non-Muslims to live under Muslim rule” makes you look incredibly ignorant

not going to watch ms marvel or engage with it at all but i’m definitely curious about Who Exactly decided Kamela’s power should come from Djinn and who decided to have Nakia look like that
Because whoever made those decisions knows exactly what they’re doing. Trying to make Muslim immigrants stomachable for white audiences and in doing so removing the aspects of religion and culture that defined so many characters in this series and moreover define us as people
#only seen the trailer#didn't like what they did with Nakia at all. Not at all#You guys don't understand the awareness of making the choice to wear a hijab especially in a non-muslim country nor the requirement to cover#the neck! Ilhan Omar might do it but she makes a choice and it could be cultural or because the US government would never let her set foot#in the government if she wore a full hijab. Either way I respect her choice but for someone to take what could be either a cultural thing or#a compromise between being a representative of your religion and roots AND your country and to then apply it to a character who#uncompromisingly embraced all aspects of her religion in the comics? and her knowledge and critical thinking of society from an islamic#perspective are her defining features? CHEAP#or nah about ilhan omar it's her personal preference fundamentally but any muslim knows there is a distinction between the 2 ways of wearing#hijab. and for the writers or whoever to apply that nakia is highly dubious#and im assuming that's the link theyre going for. They're going for 'well this muslim woman does it like this so there' THAT'S A HUMAN PERSO#PERSON WHO MADE A CHOICE. BASED ON THEIR VALUES. DO NOT CONFLATE ONE PERSON'S CHOICE WITH ANOTHER'S.#the author of ms marvel made a choice to have Nakia wear her hijab THIS way. Andh for her character to be Like This. Her Values like That#you know what im saying? this is also more insidious than changing plot points or characters for ordinary stories or percy jackson or whatev#because it's about islam. it's about representation or muslim minorities and islam in western media. most of us don't like being represented#in western media because it is NEVER an acceptable representation. here again it's distorted.#anyway i wil stop ranting in the tags#and the thing that bothers me is those are pretty big things already. so what else did they totally change to remove the islamic side
