All the times when I've pointed out Iran is not populated by Arabs probably occurred during the times when TB was banned.





What does colonialism/expansionism and the slave trade have to do with Islamic terrorism? They're two completely different things. Might as well conflate the many millions killed by Christian empires centuries ago with people that murder abortionists.
you made it sound like there was no islamic radicalization until WW2
i doubt it. Aug is infinitely more educated than you are and has been all over this planet. He would know the difference between an arab and a Persian.
nah dude, northern Africa was radicalized against other Muslim sects as well as christianity. I feel like you're ignoring ethnic hatred inside Islam as well
EDIT: The Shah was of course heavily influenced by Western powers, not the best example there though Mosaddegh was in many ways moderate as well (certainly not a radical Muslim).
its that islam was radicalized in africa and the middle east for a long damn time
If that's the case we can pin that word to Christians(we've slaughtered far more people in the name of jesus than any other religious group), we can pin that word to the people who wrote and followed the talmud, etc.this isnt a dick measuring contest, its that islam was radicalized in africa and the middle east for a long damn time
