GEORGE SAMI   (03.01.06)

62. Qaradawi does not represent Islam
nehad ismail ,   camberley, england   (03.01.06)
Sheikh Qaradawi has made stupid comments over th years justifying suicide bombing in Iraq and Israel. He does not speak on behalf of the entire Muslim or Arab World. He has been severly crticised by Arab intellectuals and liberals. His views are not too dissimilar to those coming from fanatical religious figures. There are extreme people in every religion and they must be condemned. Killing of innocent people cannt be justified whether the killing was committed by individuals or by the military. Killing of innocent people irrespective of their faith, race or their ethnicity, for political reasons or security reasons is not acceptable. and must be condemned without ifs and buts. Those who advocate such killings are complicit in the crime. nehad ismail camberley, england
63. #51 about Shas
Linda   (03.01.06)
Can you give me one speech of shas that comes close to haradawi? For now I have seen Israeli Arabs believe Shas helps them more than there own people in the Knesset like that sh*thead Tibi. I never heard a Jew leader telling me that we should kill Muslims, and in the Torah not one time I saw a call for killing another people. Or a leader trying to let us believe that according to the torah we should kill. I do saw :"Safe one life and safe the world" Not one time I have seen on Israeli TV a call for hate against Muslims in general, we have entertainment on tv and not using it for propaganda like the Arab TV is doing with al manar, al jezeerah en al whatever. In Europe I saw Jewish leaders trying to speak with the Arabs and try open dialogue. I have not seen one demonstration of Arabs or Muslims against there 'leaders' or hate. I did see Europe with demonstrations against war and against hate. I did see demonstrations in Israel. I did NOT see demonstrations against leaders like Arafat who stole money from his own people. I did NOT see one Arab country saying something against another Arab country, but I do see this upon the Christians nations, they do have criticism against each other, and that is democracy. And one more thing, I makes me angry this bullshit about the wrong translations from Arabic to English. Every time it is a 'wrong' translation and 'we' did not understand it. Come on, alot of the Israeli's understand Arabic and speak it well, most of the Muslims do not understand Arabic and must blind and deaf follow there leaders. Give translators some credit, most of them are Arabs themselves and know very well what the person is saying, Arabic is not abracadabra people, it's not that hard! But maybe we should do the same; the world does not understand the translation from Hebrew, this hard and complex language.
64. Mohamed ,USA: Another foul Arab excuse
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (03.01.06)
MEMRI translations are as all others done by experts - don't try to find excuses for your bewildred brethren you honestly don't think you can fool the entire world by constantly insisting all is translated wrong. many before tried that ONE Where are millions of muslims coming out in demonstrations to support peace - to demand their Jihadis stop running you religion into the ground - since that's where it will end up to be. You cannot fool theentire free world for ever. We have been catching on to We ain't for sale nor are we for your wicked and false talk. We look right through YOU You want us to believe a single of your words - get the same millions you have running wild and burning causing murder and mayhem for a cartoon - get those same millions to run amock and call for PEACE and decent morals
65. nehad ismail,england: Don't kid anyone
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (03.01.06)
He represents millions of Muslims and millions of those who teach and preach - your Imams What are you doing in the UK - go back from where you came from. Your RedKen equaled this man to the pope .... and you Muslims in the UK clapped your dirty little hands in support
66. Sheikh Yousef al-Qaradawi
Micha ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (03.01.06)
Sheikh Yousef al-Qaradawi please try and understand that we Jews are your brothers. We are all created in the image of G-d. Hate is not a Godly trait. One should love his fellow human beings. Islam is one of the daughter religions of Judaism. If you would only look into the Holy Torah you would see that both Jews and Arabs are decendants of Abraham. Because G-d created us in His image, committing murder is the ultimate desecration of G-'s name.
67. Micha: He's no brother of mine
Matan ,   Jerusalem   (03.01.06)
Recognize an enemy when you see one
68. #46
Jane   (03.01.06)
And exactly what culture do you expect us to assimilate with? We are good citizens in whatever country we will, making valuable contributions to that country. Do you expect us to give up our heritage? As long as we are not rioting over cartoons, what the hell should you care?
69. #51
Jane   (03.01.06)
No comparison, no matter how hard you try. Shas does not incite to murder.
70. #54
Jane   (03.01.06)
Thanks and thanks.
71. RE: Not Representative
Steve ,   San Francisco, USA   (03.01.06)
If Qaradawi is not a representative of all muslims, well my friends it is the time for muslims to take actions against Qaradawi, and i repeat ACTIONS NOT SIMPLE WORDS OF CONDEMNETION.
72. Arab-Jewish conflict
Jim ,   Kansas City   (03.02.06)
One thing to remember is God doesn't break promises. In the Old testament Jews were the chosen people. That will not change.
73. response to ismail
Howard ,   New York, USA   (03.02.06)
you could have fooled me about Qaradawi. i have a lot of time differentiating him from all the other haters. i haven't yet seen much evidence of a moderate moslem backlash against this. if this were christian, hindu, jew... you'd get a lot of backlash. but where is the moslem backlash against this hate. if i don't hear it ... it's not there .. which means that the moslems agree with it.
74. Since when have these clerics ever been representative?
Srini   (03.02.06)
Other than in their claim, a lot of [i]mullahs[/i] (obviously including Qudrawi--but especially include the Bukhari family, now of India) really represent themselves (I doubt they ever asked the ones they claim to represent what was actually needed). The Bukhari family was exposed in this (actually, their ancestry is not even Indian, as revealed by the surname) in 2002 by Sultan Shahin, a freelance journalist whose columns have appeared in "Indian Express", "Times of India" and "Hindustan Times". I can hope that Shahin will be up to doing the same with Qudrawi.
75. Sick and untruths
Bob ,   USA   (03.02.06)
This just proves the truth about Islam and the koran, that they are a violent people and want to exp[and their hatred. To teach hate and violence against the innocent is just sick and deranged. They also dont know the truth, Israel and the jews were in Israel thousands of years before the koran, Mohammed and islams.
76. I agree #5
cufi ,   gaza   (03.02.06)
I hate the Hamas! They and this nut cleric are killing us with their doctrine of murder. Who are we to kill? Ourselves!
77. one recommendation
Dave ,   Lansing   (03.02.06)
these muslims should try scientology . . . It might pacify them a little bit. Look what it did for tom cruise! . .. no wait that is a bad example. . . on second thought, stay away from scientology , I dont want any militant scientologists threatening to blow me up in the name of. . .. scientology . . . on my doorstep.
78. The religion of peace
maz ,   Reston, Va   (03.02.06)
The religion of peace casts it's ugly head.
79. what else
Archangel ,   USA   (03.02.06)
One only has to read Ezekial 38-39 to see the outcome of the enemies of Israel!
80. Muslims are the occupiers, not the reverse!
Dr RJP ,   Florida, USA   (03.02.06)
When did any Muslim own a piece of land that he acquired legitimately? The history of Islam is a history of Muslim imperialism, and all the "so-called" land they claim was given tothem by Allah was taken at the point of a sword. Cointrast that with how Jews purchased land in Israel from Palestinian Arabs who had no use for it. THEN, after Jews transformed the desert into an oasis...THEN and ONLY then did they want to move there. I wish that someday we'll have a government in the USA that will tell the Arab World to give back the land they stole from the Jews -- the land set aside for them by the Balfour Declaration.
81. Murdering Jews
Samuel Stephens ,   USA   (03.03.06)
It seems all of the Hot air generators that incite the murder of Jews and Westerners are all in the Islamic countries that could care less what is said, as long as it is hateful. These mullas are always protected by crowds of islamic zealots. Why don't they come to free countries where a verbal debate can ensue. Are these islamic spokemen so weak in their faith they can't verbally back up what they say?
82. Homicide.
Toppi ,   Stockholm, Sweden   (03.06.06)
When a muslim want kill a jew or a non-muslim, who can never become blessed by God. They are really fundamentally wrong to believe to to kill a non-muslim is a good thing! They are very, very, very, very stupid!!!!
83. Palestinian
tony ,   PARIS   (03.13.06)
OH PLEASE;Stop this crap of "We are starving we are dying we are sick,This does not rub off any more..you have taken the International community for SUCKERS long enough.You keep on blaming all your woes on Israel.Were did all the money we sent you go??Those BILLIONS of €€€ €€€€€€&$$$$$$$$$;Into your leaders pockets .try teaching your children to love and respect other religions ,first,tell them that To kill innocent people is wrong.Whether it be the IDF or your famous Suicide terrorists.We will all live in peace ,when your "Brothers "stop murdering innocent people all over the world,in the name of ALLAH,Just this week the IDF captured a few of your Brothers,trying to get into Israel to commit terrorist attacks.& may i remind you that if these attacks were carried out,those killed would have children ,as the occasion is Purim celebrated mainly by small innocent children.Maybe when you decide to do something about this,you will stop "starving& dying" as you say...and this Qaradawi nut,is just prolonging your suffering...
84. 2 things; one to read, one to watch
Joy Springreen   (05.21.06)
read this http://www.muslim-refusenik.com and watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqVY04JVqiA
85. So Sad...
Alex ,   Santa Cruz, CA   (05.23.06)
It is so sad to see the way many Arabs speak of the arab-israeli conflict. Their rhetoric is very extreme and is not in the hope of a peaceful solution. Israel and the west have given more in humanitarian aid to the Palestinians than their Arab brethren who speak out in favor of them and yet leave them to suffer terribly. ISRAEL WANTS PEACE! I fear the day will come when a war will formally break out in the middle east, caused by Islamic extremism and that time will be very sad and the truth is this: No matter what, Israel will always remain. It will remain a free and democratic land for all time. The only solution to the Palestinian issue is a two state solution.
86. incited hatred
Jew from New York ,   New York   (06.12.06)
I feel for the moderates of gaza. I wish hamas's instigation of hatred would stop. Do they care about teir people?
87. Eat, Sleep & Murder
John ,   NZ   (06.12.06)
What else are they good for. oh yea, bully their wives
88. To #3 Who Believes This Preacher Does not Represent Majority
Knave Dave   (09.17.06)
If he does not represent the majority of Muslims, why is the majority of Muslims not OUTRAGED by this so-called hijacking of their religion? Why is the majorty so nearly silent when Christian churches of many denominations are attacked by Muslims because of the brief comment by a leader of one denomination? Why is it that this majority of Muslims usually spends far more time trying to justify the actions of their more violent counterparts by showing where the West is to blame? It leads one to wonder if this preacher DOES speak for the majority of Muslims, who only wish to appear more tolerant and objective.
89. WHERE ARE THE REPRESENTATIVES OF PEACE?
Knave Dave   (09.17.06)
Where are those who claim Islam is the religion of peace? Why is the religion of peace the preferred fuel for fires that are smouldering all over the world? Why is it a religion so easily co-opted for the greatest acts of violence and hatred seen in the world -- acts that are routinely commited against innocent civilians, like congregations meeting in a church? Could it be that modern historians have wrongly represented the crusaders? Could it be that they believed they were fighting for their very lives against religious fanatics who would not stop until they ruled the world in the name of Islam? Perhaps they just lacked the subtlty to distinguish between the Islamic terrorists of their day and the Islamic advocates of peace. It is, after all, a true subtlty because one can hardly hear the meek voices of peace over the din of those who call for violence on a daily basis. Is it not the responsibilty of the voices of peace in Islam to fight the battle against Islamic terror in their midst and, thus, show themselves to be courageous people of peace?
