In response to: Why do Muslims hate the United States. (part III)

Category:



Q.
Mr. Imran Khan: The attacks of September 11 were universally condemned throughout the Muslim world, but America’s reprisals against Afghanistan have changed everything. The fundamentalists now occupy the center-stage. How did Islam get hijacked in this way? Is it only America to blame, or have the values of Pakistan’s ruling class also played a part in fomenting resentment against the West?



A.
Red: And I agree with you on the condemnations and supports showed after 9/11, by Muslims throughout the Muslim world. However, there were reports of some celebrations for what those Muslim martyrs had done in the attacks. And also, there were some groups and individuals which had accused the United States of bringing the attacks on itself, because of its international policy. America’s reprisals? What should have done America in your view Mr.Khan! Maybe in your mind, Americans should had forgot the well over 3.000 thousands dead and try to dialog with the terrorists in the hope that Americans wouldn't had screwed with the Muslims' feelings.

And in response to the, "America’s reprisals against Afghanistan have changed everything": before September 11, terrorists radical Islamists were already committing terrorist attacks on inert targets all over the world for the past twenty years. How America’s reprisals has changed everything?



Please, not find excuses for the acts of their cowardice. September 11, wasn't the beginning but it was the highest point of the Islamic fascists' fight against anything that differs, or crashes with their beliefs.

Q.
Mr. Imran Khan: This fascinating and highly resonant report goes a long way towards explaining the problematic nature of the relationship between Islam and the West. It is a schism that developed long before the bombing of Afghanistan, and is likely to take even longer to heal.

A.
Red: No at all. "This fascinating and highly resonant report" doesn't explains the fears of the innocents been blow up one day while they are going to work with a commute train.



"The problematic nature of the relationship between Islam and the West", isn't that problematic at all. What Islam wants is
problematic, but for the civilized nations . Islam is a culture of death which wants any human being that breath in this planet to be submitted under its malefic influence.

And this schism as you call it, wasn't created by the Westerners willingness. And it to be healed isn't up to the West world but it's up to the Middle Est world by eliminating all the fallacies of a not so benevolent, and tolerant religion such as Islam.

Peace be with you Mr. Imran Khan.

I will conclude here by saying this: It's like that all the misfortunes of Muslims is to be squarely blamed on American/Western nations. Instead of putting the blames on their own political elites in power and on their religion of peace for all the miserablenesses they are suffering from, many Muslims like to keep blaming others.

In fact, the populations of many Muslim nations rather then pick up the pieces (after their dictatorial constrictive systems had failed them) by making a fresh start in working harder to achieve what they have missed because of a broken social system. And maybe then, Muslims will get some possible alternatives for a theirs brighter future.

Instead, these Muslim populations prefer to keep themselves as being seen the possible victims of a hypothetical American/Westerner's malefic conspiracy, only to keep the poor Muslims, "miserably underachieved".

And yes, Islam is the main reason for a majority of Muslims living under the poverty line, because of the Islam's regressive force.

If only Muslims could stop their blaming game on others, and would not pay attention to a non-existent behind the scene conspiracies against them, then in all probability they will be able to find the real culprits of their miseries, and perhaps once they will do that, even find some real possibilities to improve their meager existences. And if they don't, then they will get stuck with their miseries forever while the rest of the world will elevate itself towards the stars.

I know this my post is getting way too long, but I wanted to add one last thing, a personal reflexion on the United States policing the world.

I don't like the idea of any nation that raises itself as the guardian of the world's peace. But, if wasn't for this superpower (the United States of America) to keep an eye on arising problems in the troubled areas of the world, we would have had more devastating wars by now.

I know that this my next concept could seems a weird one, but I'm going to write it anyway. Even though, for many people the US are an imperialistic nation that are colonizing the world not through the means of its military mighty, but through the means of its economic power, and yet, I still prefer a nation like the US to be the prominent force of the world.



Why? Because if it wasn't the US, then who else had by now filled the role of superpower! The Soviet Union, or perhaps Nazi Germany, or worst the communist China. I bet radical Muslims would had preferred a Muslim/Arab nation, like the Iraq of Saddam Hussein, Iran, or even better the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.



For sure, we wouldn't have had now an imperialistic nation which hegemony is based on a purely economic power such as the US, but instead our lives will be driven by a tyrannical regime which strength will be based on military power.



I know that none is better than any, but never been in the human history a time without a prominent force that was driven the world's fate.



So which one you prefer? An imperialistic one like the US that through its economic power influences events throughout the world, or one based on the military force like the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, communist China, the Iraq of Saddam Hussein, Iran, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, or any other tyrannical one which will dramatically
effect lives on a vast scale!

May peace be with you all.

In response to: Why do Muslims hate the United States. (part I)

Category:


Imran Khan Niazi
(born in Pakistani on November 25, 1952)

This post is in response to: Islam & America: Through the Eyes of Imran Khan.

Why do so many Muslims hate the United States? What has America done to alienate so many people in the Muslim world? These are the questions that former Pakistani cricketer turned politician, Imran Khan, tries to answer in this latest offering of the Unreported World series.



Accidentally I found this blog "Rise of Pakistan" while I was looking for something else, and as stated in the blog's header it is:

An independent, alternative news and information channel: A humble effort to wake up Pakistan through personal and borrowed thoughts. (This blog is maintained by the students and alumni of LUMS)


The following video I got it from
Rise of Pakistan's blog. It starts with a dramatic musical introduction while the first images are shown with a group of what appear to be Muslim Pakistanis torching a puppet, and right after Imran Khan starts talking in English with a Pakistan's accent.



Why do so many Muslims hate the United States? What has America done to alienate so many people in the Muslim world? These are the questions that former Pakistani cricketer turned politician, Imran Khan, tries to answer in this latest offering of the Unreported World series.


After I have read the post and watched the video reportage , I wanted to answer personally to Mr.Imran Khan's questions, but I couldn't really do that for obvious reasons, which were: I didn't know how and where I could have contacted him. So that the only possible alternative I had left was, to write this post with the hope that he could one day read it.

I start it with saying this to
Mr. Imran Khan: Do you really believe in everything that you are telling in this video reportage of yours?

Mr. Imran Khan, what about this other questions: why so many peace loving people all over the world are hating Islam, and what Islam has done to alienate so many free minded people? Can you answers them?

Honestly Mr.Khan, I do believe your reportage is biased to disgrace America and its own people.

Mr. Imran Khan, you seem to me a nice and intelligent person, and because of politics I do believe you had to play a role in this reportage. Now I wanted to ask you if deep down in some corners of your subconsciousness, you had ever wondered if Islam is really that good towards all the world-wide faithful Muslims, and if you believe that Islam really is, a religion of peace and tolerance. And finally that there aren't second class citizens such as the diverse, or the women in the Muslim societies because of Islam?

Now I will continue with this post like I've had an imaginary conversation with Mr.Imran Khan's, while using his video transcript from the blog, "Rise of Pakistan".

*****

Q.
M
r. Imran Khan: At Islamabad’s Women’s College, a concert for peace is taking Place. The students are mainly from privileged, middle-class backgrounds. If you were looking for Muslims that sympathised with the West, this would be the first Place you would go. But even here, amongst the more liberal, “Westernised” Pakistanis, anti-American feeling is riding high.

A.
Red: Except this video where a few young people are having some fun with music at Islamabad’s Women’s College, I haven't seen any single real Muslim's manifestation against the many terrorist attacks, or any Muslim in a march for peace and understanding between the cultures of the West and the Middle East.

In the other hand, what I have witnessed in the past years are the many violent protests against Western nations by Muslim radicals. And by the way, if that young lady from the video which is saying that she hasn't seen in practical life any Christian, or Jew manifest for peace and tolerance, then, she hasn't see the world at all.

My dear young lady you better wake up, you probably don't see it but you live in a constrained and obscured world. You probably are living in a very tight perimeter, and I bet you wont go outside the world you well know, or even outside Islamabad where are living Muslim men with long beards and ideas in how a woman should do behave and dress.

Q.
Mr. Imran Khan: “It’s as if one white life was far more important than thousands of black or brown lives,” comments one young, educated, middle-class woman. “They feel they can basically come in, use as they please, and then, when they want, they can just walk across the border, go somewhere else, and do exactly as they please there,” complains another.

A.
Red: This is a nice way to incite hatred between white and any other human race. For sure, this young lady has never been in the United States. The United States has the most heterogeneous groups of peoples living on its soil, than any other Wester nation. And besides that, there is racism in any form and shape in any part of the world, even among whites. So that isn't a valid excuse for her reasoning.

I don't know if this young lady when she was saying “They feel they can basically come in, use as they please, and then..." she was referring to the Americans of when they had invaded Iraq, and some Iraqis had suffered brutal acts by the hands of some sick minded American soldier. If this is the case, then I'm condemning those atrocious acts, as well any other criminal acts committed on civilians by any other army during a wartime.

But in any case, if we compare the American invasion in Iraq with any other invading forces taken from the past history of all humanity, then we will realize that it's almost a standard during a wartime to commit indecent acts against defenseless populations, and because of the quantity and the ferocity perpetrated by these invaders from the past against civilians, you will see that the Americans have had very few incidents of this nature during a war.
