Mejt0 Made in Poland... Devil's Descendants 2724	Posted - 2016.05.15 17:56:00 - [13] - Quote Saying Allahu Akbar is no different than saying God is the greatest and stuff like that. There is nothing offensive in that. Just because media are putting this saying in wrong light doesn't mean it is bad / offensive. To the guy who wrote about the whole : say it at the airport... there is so much wrong with this one. Like... If you say a name of a wrong football club in Warsaw (capital of Poland), you can get beat up really bad. Does that mean this club's name is offensive? No. Vigilant Pilot Happy Hunting

It's not ignorance as far as I know, it's more about situational awereness. If you are in a Mosque, hearing these words won't make you think of a suicidal attack, but hearing a guy in an airport shouting the same exact words for no reason, well, it's a bit different. It depends on the "intention" actually. If the name of the corporation is referred to a suicidal attack, which I personally believe, it is offensive imo. take time or take aurums (Gò»#-_-)Gò»~~~GòºGòÉGòº [FSTNM SCDNM] #PortDust514

Allahu Akbar. Just saw a fine girl? Allahu Akbar. Stop being such a xenophobic coward. I probably have not been clear enough, or, actually, that's what I'd really love to think. I'll set another example: I perfectly know the meaning, but still, based on situations, it is used in different ways as you also said. Sieg Heil, means salute to victory. There may very well be cases where you use "sieg heil" in german without being charged of **** apology, but still used in certain contexts it does get such connotations. Now, you are playing an online game, it's about war where you make things blow up. You shoot people, kill people. It will be natural for people to think that my "sieg heil" is a reference to nazism. As much as "Holocaust Squad" is surely offensive enough, it is at least the same for Allahu Akbar. Not because saying that "God is (the) great(est)" is offensive because it really isn't, but because of the connotation those words have today when used in certain contexts. After all, "Holocaust squad" would "just" mean "Sacrifice Squad", right? Again, try saying Allahu Akbar in different situations and you have very different outcomes. It looks like a sophism, but it really isn't. It's not that there are muslims, some muslims are terrorists, all muslim are terrorists, but it's more like the outcome of an experience you never had directly (one of the wonderful things you are born with, just for being human) that makes you wonder if the guy shouting Allahu Akbar for no reason is just praising his god or is about to explode. And actually, I'm pretty sure it's not me being xenophobic because I'm really not, but it's more because of those handful of people that uses the exact same words for terrorist attacks. Blame them, don't blame what you call "ignorance". "Someone" before me said that facts does not exist, what exist are only interpretations. take time or take aurums (Gò»#-_-)Gò»~~~GòºGòÉGòº [FSTNM SCDNM] #PortDust514

For no reason. You used an airport in your previous example. So, could he have just seen his wife/child/other close relation who just made it out of a drone strike two days ago in any of the myriad countries that are currently subject to that horror. Or he could have just had a bag dropped on his foot. Or he could have just found out his wife is pregnant. Or he won the lottery. Or he lost his job. Or he found out his wife is dead. Or he found out he has cancer. Just because YOU associate those words with people committing suicide attacks(because of the fearmongering of the media, and your own ignorance of Islam) does not make it so. Your outright refusal to see that is why you are a xenophobe. You don't understand the people that you consider a threat, and you have made no effort to understand. xxwhitedevilxx M wrote: And actually, I'm pretty sure it's not me being xenophobic because I'm really not, but it's more because of those handful of people that uses the exact same words for terrorist attacks.

Just because you clutch your purse extra tight when someone says something so common as to almost be meaningless doesn't mean that it is a battlecry, as you claimed.

Just because YOU associate those words with people committing suicide attacks(because of the fearmongering of the media, and your own ignorance of Islam) does not make it so. Alhamdu-lillahi, Katthhara Allah kheirak would better fit your example. Unfortunetely I know enough of islam to know that misinterpratation of the Quran is rampant. You seek ignorance in the wrong place, when you should really seek ignorance into certain interpretations of the Quran. And as I already said, it depends on the context: it's not a secret that Allahu Akbar is also used for much less lofty ideals, and really because of the sounding board made by mass media that Allahu Akbar might be considered offensive outside of its context. Who tells you that the guy who named the corporation is actually muslim? And why would you praise God in a videogame, anyway? On a completely different topic you made a different, much more interesting point: wrote: could he have just seen his wife/child/other close relation who just made it out of a drone strike two days ago in any of the myriad countries that are currently subject to that horror Sad but true. This surely is the leit-motiv for those who decide to suicide, guess it is some kind of revenge toward the "western world", but still either way, only innocents get caught into the mix. Be it Paris or Raqqa, and it surely won't help to decapitate random people or to send more drone strikes. take time or take aurums (Gò»#-_-)Gò»~~~GòºGòÉGòº [FSTNM SCDNM] #PortDust514
