Even in the Year 1076 Muslims Couldn't Get Along with Their Neighbors

never said all, just most

damn, someones on to me

I was waiting for you to show up, lol.
With a name like Saladin, you pretty much have to know something about the Crusades.

so precise and acurrate.im envious of your ability

Bravo S' Allah Hadin. Yet again, you've proven that by simply citing
the Historical account factualy as the concensus validates it, we can
learn by starting from the beginning. I saw a 1946 movie on TCM
entitled Sinbad the Sailor with Dougles Fairbanks & Maureen O'Hara.
They talked of Islam too. No doubt Omar Kyam and Kalil Gibran were
of the Islamic faith also. But we never hear them being associated with
anything noble either. For what it's worth these people also invented
the Arabian Parts before William the Conquerer defeated the Saxons
at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Yet we never hear of any Psychic Science
associated with them either. Can't scare the little kids to keep 'em in line
unless there's a handy bogeyman I suppose.

nice comment ez, but whats it have to do with this post? also although most of us will agree, the slaughter of innocent indigents was a travesty. also of interest is that they were not the peace loving inhabitants that most believe, native americans frequently killed, raped, enslaved and even tortured each other over land and natural resource domination.

Your headline says that Muslims don't get along with their neighbors.
It would be easy to prove this with certain examples of history.
However, the example you provided, the Crusades, is more of an example of how Christians couldn't get along with their neighbors. So, Ezrierin is showing you more examples of how Christians were not getting along with their neighbors.

never said muslims were the only guilty party throughout history, this is just one example from the past. modern history concerning neighborly behavior or lack there of currently exists today. look up todays worldly conflicts and see who is behind them.

Today's worldly conflicts?

OK, how about the Iraq war? The war in Afghanistan? The economic world collapse?

Can you tell me who's responsible for those?

Sorry, I don't mean to call you a complete moron.
But, posting an article about the Crusades and then using it to say that Muslims don't get along with their neighbors is completely retarded.

-Christians take Jerusalem from Jews, kick Jews out.
-Muslims take Jerusalem from Christians, let's Jews and Christians worship in the city
-Christians take Jerusalem from Muslims, kick out Jews and Muslims
-Muslims take Jerusalem from Christians, let's Jews and Christians worship in the city again.

Is this sinking in?
Pick up a history book. Any history book. Even a Right wing Foxnews Christian history book, if one exists. It's all there.

iraq, yes the u.s. went in. why? well, because muslims who couldnt get along with their neighbors crashed a couple of planes into some buildings in the u.s. granted they were saudi but we have a cozy relationship with a few princes over there. saddam and his offspring were a group of sadistic bastards who couldnt get along with their neighbors either. same for iran. afghanistan? a warring nation who cant get along with their neighbors either. why are we still there? ask obama. the economic collapse of the world could be to some degree blamed on muslims who cant get along with their neighbors but thats more difficult to prove. follow the money.

thanks for the history lesson

We invaded Iraq because Bush lied about wmd's, not because of 9/11.
The economic world collapse is due to corporate greed- it has absolutely nothing to do with Muslims, lol. Wow, you can't be serious. Do you watch the news or follow current events at all?

yeah, with my doll mrs. beasley

your narrative supposes a degree of missfunction on the part of muslims, so ez was showing the same in christianity.
under the guise of just calling as you see it, she is doing the same.she even riegned it in to keep it germain to the framework you created.thats what it has to do with the post.

not to mention the muslim world actualy gets along with its nieghbors better than any other group.when was it again that saudi arabia attacked any one?

um unless you think the world is only us, it isnt islam.
the worlds conflicts by and large are done by us, or as a result of our actions.

hey we got kicked out by everyone,babylonians,assyrians,persians so there everyone had a turn at giving the jews a perverbial wedgie.

how can the saudis have a cozy relationship if they are muslim and dont get along with nieghbors?

supposedly if wmd's didnt get us in bush wanted to fly a un plane over iraq to draw fire as an excuse to invade

Umm the worlds economic collapse was all, and i do mean all, our bad. ( by "our" i mean the US.) It was not the result of war but greedy coporate practices that resulted in an exeptionaly large number of people being unable to make their mortgage payment, when they couldnt make the payments banks forclosed, now when all thes forclosures happened at once there were way to many housese for sales which made prices plummet which took banks for haveing so much money to way less money then investors started pulling they could move the toxic assests fast enough to pay the banks bills. Next thing you know economic collapse. this all would have been spotted of course if Bush's regulators had been paying attention and idk like doing their job.

Okay, I see I could be considered to digress. But I wanted to use my comment to point out the utter hypocrisy of the, good Christian soldiers BS. As for the cruelty and stupidity of others, I think that is to often endemic to the human species. Sad too.

And they weren't all the warring, raping, pillaging savages others wish to portray. Suffice to say that preexisting culture in the Americas was very much the mixed bag not unlike the mixed bag in Europe or Asia.

The fact remains, foreigners invaded the continent without a welcome by those who lived here and with a continuing antagonistic relationship with the natives until "native" became relatively and sadly synonymous with "irrelevant".

well they were originally welcomed, but they wore that out rather quickly dont you think? glad to see you still suffer from misplaced guilt, it make the world go round

no, we have the cozy relationship. put down the bong!

sounds like a good plan, but im sure he didnt come up with it himself. thats why the cia get paid the big bucks

ez, im proud of the balls you keep growing

Yes, europeans wore out their welcome practically on day one. Can't say I feel any guilt about it. I wasn't there and, truth be told, I have the bloods of both parties coursing in my veins so I guess I owe them both a bit of gratitude for existing at all.

Still, can't argue with history. Natives were essentially hunted almost to oblivion - north and south. Regardless of how those natives lived themselves, it wasn't right to invade the continent and displace them.

If one truly advocates the "rightness" of such a thing, then one makes an argument for europeans to go anywhere they wish and do whatever they like even today - including a second invasion of the Americas.

fortunately most europeans have mellowed since then. now if we can keep the immigration of the muslim population from trying to integrate sharia law into the u.s. we should be ok

i think some are hiding under my bed

thats not a cia plan, thats like the georgia attacking russia plan.

nice one

There's nothing wrong with the article, it's all accurate for the most part.
The headline is why it's in comedy, lol.

Not that it matters, but it's ironic, because at the time, the Christians were the ones kicking out the Jews and the Muslims, not the other way around. So, Congoboy is completely misinterpreting a slice of history. I used to think he does things like this intentionally, but I just don't think he knows any better, lol.

why are you so hostile and angry all the time? you should try meditation

dude, again i report. i dont make it up. believe, dispute, vomit, i dont care.

Under Muslim control, Muslims let Christians and Jews worship in Jerusalem.

Under Christian control, Christians banished Muslims and Jews from Jerusalem.

Can you explain to me how on earth you can interpret that as Muslims not getting along with their neighbors? Because it sounds like the EXACT OPPOSITE to me, lol.

I agree well said.

why do you insist on antagonizing those prone to anger? you should try civility.

its not as black and white as that despite this article being so

like the giant mr. stapuff marshmallow in ghost busters?

My god it sounds like one of those dates people find on the internet.

thanks, i accept your accusation. i think all of mankind can be guilty of said douche-ness from time to time. some more than others.

keep rewriting, we're used to it by now

It's funny, because in the end the Jews got their city back.

Yes and the new locals find the return of the old locals very disturbing.

I don't even think you read everything I wrote... "Rewriting" what exactly?
You think Jerusalem was originally a Christian city?
LOL. No one is this retarded. You have to be kidding.

THIS IS BASIC HISTORY. Not even Glen Beck or Bill O'Reilly would argue these facts, lol.

Please feel free to prove anything I've said wrong.
Speak up, don't be shy.

dude i posted, you disagreed. what more is there? im right, youre wrong or vice versa depending on your belief system. you cant convince me and i cant convince you even with the back up of scholars. move on to a new topic my friend.

There's nothing wrong with the article you posted. I'm not arguing with any scholars that wrote the article. It's all correct.

I'm asking you how on earth you can interpret it as an example of Muslims not getting along with their neighbors? Muslims let Christians worship in Jerusalem, but not the other way around. Do you understand?

uhhh yeah. i think im getting a headache teacher

Seriously, if you can explain to me how the Crusades are an example of Muslims not getting along with their neighbors, I will consider I'm completely wrong. I've done it before, many times.
I'm basically just asking you to defend your headline with something, anything. So far it's been nothing. Is it really that hard?

ok, you keep me honest then, i trust you to always know the truth.

not so much then as now

At least it's entertaining

its because they know i am superior and have legitimate offerings that question the status quo. join another blog if you dont like it and stop reading my posts. i really dont give a damn scarlett

thanks, i dont make it up, i just report it. my mssion is to get people to think about things they would rather not.

Hear hear, good sir.

thanks, it helps me get through my day.

if you say so, thanks for the enlightenment!

man if you cant see sarcasm, thats really sad

maybe its the mushrooms i eat from the cow pasture out back

never said the christians were saints but they have for the most part been through an affirmation since then, some other religions have not and many of them still practice barbaric laws, especially toward women and those who refuse to believe in their way. peace

hmmm who else absolves sin through holy war?
i guess the church actualy invented jihad, not islam huh.
but lets blame them any way cuz we know we are right despite having no evidence to state such a thing.

WIN

im here to stay, get used to it. you dont like what i post, dont read it. simple

does it really matter? the site may mean different things to different people. to me its a place to enlighten those with posts they would otherwise not be exposed to, either through their own censorship or that of the main stream media. and its a place for me to have fun, you know like playing in the sand or blowing bubbles, or like having sex. well not as fun as sex but at least as fun as blowing bubbles or watching the sun set, or playing with a puppy or maybe even skipping stones on a placid lake. oh yeah like trying to catch dragon flies too.

maybe it was written by one

thank you for your input littlwarrior. the same could be said about christians and jews. but rarely does anyone come to their defense

All religions are the same it is only within themselves that are different from the outside they are all exactly the same. Except for Buddhism still can’t figure that one out, in a good way though.

buddhists generally are a peacful people

Thats why I have always been so fond of them.

well budism is a way of life with basic belifs in the after life, so they kinda are although they have no "higher power" so ya kinda not too. Like I said I havent quite figured buhdists out. Really though religions are the same, they all beleive their way is the right way, if you dont do it their way then its bad, if you do it their way then its good. Oh and their god or gods will at somepoint destroy the world and it will be a really bad time for everyone who didnt do it their way. The rest is just semantics.
