There are some very strange views regarding balance being promoted here. Despite having a dedicated board for the discussion of Islam, run by a Muslim, certain members have a problem with all the discussion here focusing on Islam.
For example here we have John Smith complaining that I have started 1000 threads on the mistreatment of women in Islam, and no threads at all on the mistreatement of women outside of Islam.
http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1453237432/255#267He claims that he is here more often than I am and has been keeping such careful track of what I do that he knows what topics I don't start threads on. He also claimed I was "spreading crap" about Islam, telling lies etc, but could not produce a single example. He suggested he would be happy if I started as many about voting rights in the vatican as I do about Islam.
He appears to have now conceded the point on thread count (or at least, changed the topic again) and moved on to making it about honesty, particularly when it comes to motivation. Despite this, he is unable to give a coherent explanation for his motivation in taking such an unusual stance on the issue, insisting repeatedly that he has already explained it (this might be a reference to him whining about thread count, accusations of lies etc, but he has not clarified).
Apparently motivated by the above thread, Bobby started this thread:
http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1454193623According to the thread title, it is about comparing Muslims to Christians. In an apparent attempt to correct this imbalance, Bobby tried to insist that criticism of Islam should be outside the scope of the thread.
Of course, there is also Brian, who has gone quiet lately. He often insisted that we do not even have the right (or the ability) to criticise other countries or religions.
We have also had Aussie lately insisting that "sovereign rights" of foreign countries takes precedent over individual rights. This precludes any kind of interference or "telling them how to live," even in such extreme cases as Nazis gassing Jews.
http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1379233325/1320#1320 Why is there no christianity forum FD? Could it be there just isn't the demand for Christian bashing as there is for Islam bashing? Only FD could bring up the existence of an Islam forum as evidence that there is "balance" here
If you honestly can't see the issue here then you have trully become blinded by your anti-Islam obsession. Look back at your pre-2007 contributions and see how different you were - how back then you felt it was important to take issue with Sprint and other's "ban them, kill them, nuke them" mantra. Now you completely ignore it, sometimes even pretending you don't even realise it is being said. Barely a day goes by where a story isn't posted about Islam that turns out to be based wholly or heavily on lies. This stuff used to matter to you, but now you just bypass it altogether an hone in solely on the Islamic "spineless apologetics".
You have turned into the very thing you used to rail against.
