Yup, so why don't you MYOB and let mods do their thing.

Hypocrisy is strong with this one.

P.S Here is a secret - The report button works wonders... It works so well that people get banned all the time.

you are equating my religious beliefs to a public forum? how low does your intellect go?
besides, the mods are doing their thing, but i am free to comment on how they are doing.
thanks for your secret. please report yourself.

I don't disagree with you that "objectionable" material is not always treated the same way. I think it should be. But those who own/run the forums get to decide on what they find appropriate. ATOT and ATPN are definitely anti-religion, but I don't have a problem with that, to each his own.

Glad we're on the same page here :thumbsup:

Heck, even a Jew recognizes the Islamophobia and hatred of Islam and Muslims in this forum.

Well, if a Jew said so it must be true, right?

.........or is it supposed to be the opposite, it is so hard to remember.

Anyway, that racist comment has been reported.

LOL +1

Though reporting a racist comment by routan is a bit like pointing out zits on a leper . . .

Yeah.....welll......I didn't report either of his posts. I'm satisfied with simply using his words against his hypocritical racist attitude.

if you actually paid attention to this thread, I have stated that these thugs are no better than the ruthless dictator

so if you want to interpret that as me supporting Gaddafi, or giving his side plaudits, you're just an ignorant and idiotic dick.

i like how you skipped the fact that you were called out on your bullshit lies about not corroborating facts. The least you can do is own up to your bullshit.

It's probably not worth my time to write a replying to Routan, but the way the transition council "Thugs" are different than Gaddafi is that they have a fairly democratic constitution that they are implementing once the fighting is finished, have committed to free elections in 8 months and have disqualified themselves from running in those elections.

Just the fact that they've made those promises sets them apart from a dictator like Gaddafi and if they follow through, then that's a huge difference in my book.

The council with a "fairly democratic constitution" is using weapons supplied by non-Libyans to forcibly enforce their interpretation of the system of government, including using Libyan money and resources to dole out re-construction contracts to countries that assisted them?

This is a difference?

How about this, you promise $0 tax for every American. Then have people who share this posts opinion wage war to make you president of this country.

EDIT: is this the constitution you speak of: http://english.libya.tv/2011/08/24/ntc-to-decide-committee-to-draft-constitution-2/

The one without a timeframe, the one that is not yet worded, the one that doesnt even have a committee yet?

To be precise, you wrote this:

i am still liking how you choose to not own your bullshit. you're quite a piece of work. you're indian, arent you? that would make sense.

You state that he "choose not to own [his] own bullshit" and that he's "Indian," so "that would make sense." Correct me if I'm misreading you here, but you basically stated that his ethnicity (or perhaps his national origin) explains why he would choose not to own his own bullshit. Sounds pretty racist to me...

So do you fundamentally disagree with the America being a country? I mean the French sent a lot of weapons and money to the "Rebels" during the revolutionary war to further their interests in this part of the world. Those bastard founding fathers didn't even have a constitution yet, in fact it took them more than 10 years from the start of the rebellion to get their act together...

Call me crazy, but despite all the religious nuts here at the time, that seems to have turned out alright.

As for the constitution, the one I saw was on the internet as a draft constitution that apparently hasn't been authenticated. It did have most Western ideals in there such as multiparty elections and rule of law (although there was also something about Sharial Law being the law of the land). Either way, they now have at least a chance at democracy instead of being under totalitarian rule.

Let me make it simple for you then, since all of you just like to pick random issues in the post and make that into a discussion rather than the original post.

i find his views, comments and posts to be bullshit and nonsensical. i attribute his views to where he was educated and raised, i.e. India.

Indian is not a race. Or even an ethnicity. If I said Punjabi or Tamil, then you can at least make somewhat of an argument that I am being racist.

Lets even suppose for the purpose of arguing that I am being "racist". How exactly is saying "you're not owning up to your bullshit because you are an Indian" a perjorative statement, let alone a racist one? In fact, it is not even a sensible statement.

the discussion here is not about America. It is about Libya. The parable is not even sensible. America was a colony. Not the nation. France didnt attack the UK. Nor did the founding fathers attack the UK. France didnt bomb either country. France didnt get re-construction contracts either in America or the UK. France didnt get oil contracts in America or the UK.

You refuse to address what I have said in response to your earlier comments, and you come up with more random, ridiculous comments, trying to make up an analogous situation.

As far as the constitution, apparently all you saw was shit. So own up to your bullshit.

Let me make you realize.. how retarded your original post is.. and that is one of the reasons why people are not taking part in that discussion.

A bunch of thugs armed by the weapons of France, Italy and Britain, has now "liberated" and "freed" Libya, and are paving the way to a "democratic" government.

You called them thugs when all others do not agree to the use of that word.. and you can't seem to provide substantial proof.. and you respond with this..

A ruthless dictator is far better than ruthless thugs out to fill their pockets by selling "reconstruction contracts" to those that supported them. They havent "freed" Libya. They have simply assumed power as hired guns of NATO Its not any improvement.

When I pointed the same thing to you.. you proceeded to call me names.. without dealing it rationally. You insult everyone and call them islamophobe which is typical of you since you started posting. I never called you names.. insulted you I just thought your basic premise of this thread as retarded. You have no idea on the timeline of the conflict.. Rebellion started first.. then NATO began arming the rebels.

You seem to disagree when others say you support Gaddafi.. when by reading your posts it is clearly apparent.

Fern, who is a moderator here(Whom you seem to hate with a passion), clearly provided a link, but it did not prove that they are thugs.. and if you think that is substantial enough.. and by your definition alone they are not qualified to be thugs..

Obviously they are thugs. They are hired by the NATO to fight against Gaddafi. They arent professional, else I would call them mercenaries. They've destroyed Libyan property, all over. You want to prove they are looters and rapists to satisfy the claim of them being thugs? If they loot, they'd be looters, not thugs. If they rape, they'd be rapists, not thugs.

You are not consistent with your argument.. and call others names to justify your retarded premise.

Oh.. and my education in India is pretty solid.. that is why I am pursuing a Ph.D degree in The US.. which is being funded by my university here.

You know what's hilarious? Routan started off posting on P&N with a thread entitled "A Muslim Perspective." He tried to come off as the persecuted Muslim who's views are not as extreme as Americans make them out to be.

Over the past year he's basically revealed him to be a caricature of an Islamist. He hates the West, he hates free speech, he hates India, he hates anyone who doesn't roll over to Islam. One might almost think he's a conservative poster trying to make Muslims look bad.

But unfortunately I think he is a real Muslim and that his views are not that uncommon. A recent story (that I almost posted) shows that 10 years later Pakistanis don't really believe basic facts about 9/11. They are on another planet and it doesn't seem like there's even common ground to negotiate understanding.

Nothing he has posted is actionable in my opinion anyway, but it DID make me laugh.

I'm pretty sure that's the point of this forum.

I think much the same. Not specifically about routan, but about so many like him. They want the Islamic world held sacred and off limits to infidels, preserved as the pristine honeypots Islam's leaders have created, but insist that Western lands and freedoms be extended to any Muslims who wish to avail themselves of them.
