What - no thread on the Baghdad bombing?

http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/04/middle...dad-car-bombs/

An airport gets attacked in Turkey - major news here, endless debate

A nightclub in Orlando is attacked - major new here, endless debate

A nightclub in France is attacked - major news here, endless debate

A suicide bomb kills TWO HUNDRED people in Baghdad - crickets.

Terrorism is terrorism, no matter who it effects.

I wonder if Facebook will let me super-impose the colors of the Iraq flag over my profile pic?

/facepalm

this thread just bombed what else can you ask for ?

I did not wanted to defend the OP, but the reactions of these posters are crazy. The double standards are real, when Terrorists attack other zones, omg its the end of the world; BAN MUSLIMS. But when it comes to attacks that prove that these terrorists are in no way related to Islam and violate virtually all of its teachings then its: "NAH IT doesn't affect me and simply dismiss the entire news.

well i gave him the benefit of the doubt until he showed that he is ignoring other similar events.

Bollocks - read what I posted in #78

Why is the terrorism of MMO-C posters in threads not being reported? Alex Jones knows why.

In Islam people like ISIS/AlQaeda/etc... are classified as Khawarij. Mohammed ﷺ described them as people who will come out from among and they will leave Islam's teachings like the arrow leaves its bow. They will read the Quran and it shall never leave their throats (meaning they won't get it), they perform takfir on major sins, they legitimize killing those who sin, they revolt against the Muslim ruler and break their promise of allegiance. Hence the word Khawarij meaning to leave or remove one self from obeying the ruler. They are the worst of mankind and the worst enemies to Islam.

Mohammed never described the Khawarjites, they existed as a sect after he died. The Hadith that you quote explains only "men from the east". This sect was a sect of extreme literalists whose major deviation from the Islamic norm was that they considered major sin to be kufr (unbelief, or rejecting Islam), and the punishment for apostasy is death. That is, of course, why they tend to kill everyone.

How do you draw that conclusion? Please point to one statement I made where I said that I did not care about the Saudis? Oh...you mean you are just making up lies and drawing false comparisons to fit your pathetic narrative? Gotcha.

Go troll someone else - done with you. You, and the guy that fucks off at work, are really not worth time to write the response.

why is it a false comparison? dont you think acts of terrorism going un-commented on is relevant to your OP?

MMOC-OT, the front page of news on the internets.

Maybe because there are many more people on these forums from the US, France and Turkey, than from Iraq? Just a guess.

It is also pretty disgusting how you use a tragic event for promoting your agenda...

And what agenda would that be? The agenda of equal recognition of terrorist attacks no matter who the victim is?

Please - explain what YOU think is my agenda.

[Self Inflicted Wounds]

You pathetic attempt at sarcasm is just that - pathetic.

Sorry, never claimed or implied to be the chosen one - but obviously I must have stuck a chord of truth in my OP, otherwise you and the guy that fucks off at work wouldn't be so quick to try and denigrate me.



Just as pathetic as darenyon

Don't be a hypocrite. You HAVE to report on all the news stories. So yeah dude, what the heck? Where are the threads!?!!?!!?

[May90]

Please - explain what YOU think is my agenda.

The agenda is to point out people's double standards, I guess. Otherwise, you would just post the news and not criticize the way forums react on it...

so why are you insulting me and ignoring when i post about other terrorist attacks that also deserve equal recognition?

[Tumble]

Lets be honest here, if there was a thread every time a muslim blew himself up in the name of his religion, that would be the only type of thread you ever read on mmo-c. It's a sad state of affairs, it really is, but no one can change it but them. However, instead of focusing on the root of the issue and tackling their short comings, they find it easier to blame the western world.

[Manabomb]

Noone cares about what happens in Baghdad.
I mean the freedom and democracy reins in this happy country now.
God bless America.



This is the map of terror attacks in Baghdad since the "liberation" by the NATO coalition.

Where's the map of the terror attacks that happened under the Hussein dictatorship? Or the thousands of people slaughtered in the Middle East by Middle Easternerns?

You can try and condemn the United State's meddling all you want, they were trying to bring order to what are essentially the modern day savages. And don't try to paint the extremist Middle Eastern world as any different, atleast the West pretends to care when people get imprisoned or beat to death for having differing opinions.

That's a TIL for me. I'm trying to understand Islam or at least grasp the basics of it while I'm on vacations. Next it will judaism.

Actually its a shithole after what the US did to it in 2003 with an illegal war.

To be perfectly honest it's been a shithole for a very long time. All the US did was turn it from a stable predictable shithole into a chaotic messy shithole.

I wouldn't call that "stable".

Why do you think people should care about terrorist attacks in countries that border active warzones compared to ones in their own backyards?

[Slant]

There was a thread about this topic I think @Slant post it. Though I'm not in my best conditions to recall properly

I did one about Bangladesh.

I wasn't aware MMOC was a news coverage site. Incidentally BBC covered the story

That's fucking hilarious coming from you of all people. I'd wager about 1/3 of your 20k posts are reposts of news articles you read.
