"I am calling for a boycott of US Airways because I'm not going to stay silent," said Shahin
All the more reason to fly on U.S. Air for me. I allways say a silent prayer when flying. If some one gets nervous and i get asked to disembark and explain so be it. I still feel safer. That said, I also have a good friend who just retired from the military and spent time in "the middle east". He has strong feelings for the people over there. He said "You cant judge an entire country by a few extremest. When the average person comes up to you and says thank you with tears in their eyes you know we are doing the right thing". That killed my argument with him on that subject. BW |

Besides, I did look and came up with nothing similar. Sorry Charlie :huh: As an aside, I did see the video of the Imams, looked like a bunch of normal middle age men. -spence |

You as a non-persecuted person can NEVER understand.Trust me.Ask my parents,grand-parents,great grand-parents.No one group has been more persecuted by Muslims than Armenians so please stop while you're behind.Sorry Spence but you are treading on insanely thin ground if you possilbly think you know what its like to be religiously persecuted. Take the time and truly research what organized religion has done for humanity.Everything I posted is 100% true from the Catholic Slaughter of the Cathars to the 3500 American deaths by Muslims on 9/11. The same question still stands:Isn't enough to just believe? And yes the life you enjoy IS IN VIOLATION of Islamic law. |

I'll let the anecdotal evidence speak for itsself. 1.4 BILLION Muslims in the world today and how many are really out to do you and my families harm? A handfull perhaps... Of the several MILLION Muslims living in the United States, even in Tiverton, Rhode Island...how many have resorted to violence in the name of Islamic Law? You'd think we'd be dodging stones on the way to Grand Central Market! Either they aren't very serious about their religion or the statement is flawed. -spence |

You speak of 1.4 billion Muslims.That's 1.4 million people who don't live like you. Again isn't it just enough to believe?Answer:no.When it comes to organized religion the old adage "its my way or the highway". I will not respond to this thread again.My suggestion to you Spence is never speak of Armenian Genocide ever again until you speak to an Armenian(who lived it).And if you say you have already then that makes you a... |

Stating this doesn't lessen the suffering of the Armenian people one bit. Perhaps even it amplifies it as most Americans don't have a clue as to what an Armenian is! Seriously... Quote:

But to the point. What happened in Turkey during WWI, while important in it's context, doesn't seem to be a major contributor to recent events. -spence |
