I won't even go into full detail on my views of that edge of the planet, but if anybody saw ALL THOSE PEOPLE that set the contractors on fire after shooting them in their car, watched them burn then drug their charred remains to the bridge and hung them up, you can probably imagine how I feel. I understand the whole population doesn't feel that way, but they just seem to harbor such a disregard for human life. I think savages explains it very well!
Depicting Mohammed is strictly prohibited in Islam (it is seen as idolatry - a wrong that also finds dictates in both Judiasm and Christianity).
It is very offensive. I would compare it to some of the stuff Marilyn Manson pulled in the US. Like ripping a Bible in two during the MTV VMAs.
The fact that everyone thinks its no big deal illustrates a remarkable ignorance of Middle Eastern culture.
Ah well that splains that. thanks for the enlightenment, not that it makes me care any more or less. Not offensive to me, just an attention getting stunt, that's what Marliyn Manson is all about. Ignorance is one thing, not giving a rats about middle eastern culture, or any other culture different from ours, is an entirely different story.If you have a desire to learn more about other cultures, more power to you. But just because people don't have a desire to learn about other cultures doesn't make them ignorant, just uninterested. Last time I looked it was not a requirement to know how people live in other countries or what their beliefs are.
You are right. It is your perogative not to give a rats ass about anything. However, the people who are dealing with Middle Easterners would be wise to at least understand their way of life. It is painfully obvious that they do not. Even if one sees Arabs as the enemy, one of the most fundamental principles of war is to know your enemy.
