that freedom of speech will not be touched by the event
they can claim their natural place among civilized nations.
If the discussion is healthy and objective, then I think people can take the fact that they come from different corners of the world, to their advantage.. there is a real problem facing humanity on this planet today and hiding our head in the sand wouldn't do good.
Put the mind in front and the self behind and the discussion will be fruitful.
What we are witnessing is a true clash of civilizations.. some 30 or 40 years ago, nations were safe and living relatively high level of peace.. in 1980 I walked with my guest
who was leaving the country, to the gate of international departure (the bridge to the plane) at JFK Airport. I had a Yashica camera and the security guard just looked through the lens and gave it back to me. Today you can't even reach the check-in hall without a valid ticket.
The reason is that communications and transportation facilities were very limited and nations (with their cultures) were in isolated islands. Now this Berlin Wall has fallen and people are able to move around so easily.. but moving only with their bodies and leaving their minds and hearts back home.. Now the clash starts and the guy on the video above who said that they will not integrate into the society and will preserve their identity, perfectly represent this problem. If a trans-planted organ couldn't integrate with the host body then the host body will reject it.. this law applies to individuals as well.. If you can't integrate then go back home.. simply like that.
This being said, I think all major three religions are the similar, may be Christianity is a little different.. Islam is basically built on Judaism, stoning for adultery, eye for eye and tooth for tooth, position of women (with varied degree).. may the difference is that Judaism don't kill to make people Jews because you can't be a Jew unless you are born into it. Spreading Islam by force is well documented, both in the Quran and in practice, some Muslims say Jihad was used for defense but I can hardly understand someone conquers Spain (in another continent) to defend himself. But if one reads texts from other religions then he will find similar commands to deal with peoples not in their religion.. except Christianity. The Jews were the first to abrogate (practically) any reference to violence against others. Muslims yet to follow.. in the Christians case who committed atrocities against other nations, they did that in clear defiance of Jesus teachings, when Muslims did the same in accordance with their teachings.
There are Muslim schools of thought today promoting the renewal of Islam to make all laws in accordance with today's universal standards of human rights and individual freedoms, by abrogating some of the Sharia Islamic laws and invoking Quranic text that promote equality and justice to all mankind. this means reviewing school textbooks
and missionary strategies.

Guys... Please do refrain. This was to be a thread to show our simpthy towards the victims... If you don't agree with this topic objective please keep your opinions to yourself.
As pointed, this is "chitchat" but as proved, it can turn out to be a very hot discussion, which we must avoid.
There are some valid point being expressed here, but deriding from the topic.

OK, it's YOUR forum.Your post included a semi-pornographic image. This is not appropriate for this forum.
what is this ???
...keep your opinions to yourself...
everybody have the right to tell what he think this is the freedom of speech, a forum is also a public place if you dont like it you can unwatch this thread.
we all here are adults and we respect each other, no one here hate muslems, jews, christians, black or white
but if someone say something that other dont think the same, he may say his opinion you cannot shut us up...
if we would listen to each other we could learn from each other and maybe change our minds... instead of bury our heads in the sand and keep our opinions for ourself...
ilan, I may have wrongly chosen my phrasing... everybody has the right to their opinion, and of course, of expressing it.
Still, this thread is not the place to express some type of opinions. as I said, this was intented, as the title clearly express it, as a condoleance expression thread. not to discuss why, how or who is responsable for these acts.
this is NOT to be a thread to discuss religion, ideology, politic beliefs.
I have mine, and I am not bringing them to discussion here. Yes, we are all adults here, and we are one of the most tolerant comunities I ever been a part of. But theses type of issues bring out the most passionate discussions, and even adults can easily misphrase and start a small words WW3.
