While attending a muslim rally calling for the death of America to prove he wasn't a "RACIST!!!"  like I am, poor James McMurray suffered a serious mishap.

I was, uh... Infiltrating the organization for the CIA. Yeah... that's it.

Can you do me a favor and destroy this photo? I don't want to lose my security clearance.

Only in Noxland could McMurray be considered a great friend to Islam, and enemy of the USA. Our basement-dwelling friend has a rather unique perspective on things...

Nox, are you truly having fun watching other people suffering?

That´s part of human nature, I guess. But we built this little thing called civilization to get it out of us. Please keep that in mind, when you are ranting against someone "inferiour and backward" again.

You are in exact the same tribal arousal game that a random palestinian is caught in.

Actually you're completely wrong. I hate them because they have openly vowed to force their barbaric culture and way of life on me and my country.

They hate use because we have a different culture than they do, one that allows personal freedom for all people women included.

By your logic people who hated the nazis were equal to the nazi mobs marching thru the streets on crystal night.

Purely as a matter of interest, please explain the difference between the spread of Islam and the 'Coca-Cola Imperialism' in place since the end of WW2.

That picture was totally funny. Not because of where he's from, but because the dumbass set himself on fire.

What's also funny is how bad Nox wants to play with the grown-ups. Swing and a miss, chuckles.

If I answered yes, does that mean I have start posting silly picture threads too? Because I totally don't have what it takes to do the whole internet feud thing.

Uh, well, let's see. How many critics of coca cola imperialism were brutally murdered in the streets by coco cola fanatics? How many people were forced to drink coca cola at gunpoint?

In afhganistan people were forced to go into mosques, kneel and pray at gunpoint. In the netherlands a film director, descneded from van gogh, was murdered for making a movie about ow islam brutally oppresses women.

Oh, under the taliban in afghanistan people were also forbidden from playing sprots, listeningto music, possessing alcohol, men couldn't shave, women were treated like horrible things to be hidden away and beaten down, etc,

Instead of asking how coca cola imperialism is different from islamofascism, maybe it would be better to ask how the two were alike, because there is a short somple answer to that: They weren't.

But its all about forced culture change.  Whether or not it carried out at street level by a thug with a gun or at corporate/governmental level by a thug with a gunboat, its still making people think your way through violence and coercion.

Ok so fundamentalist islam is not what we in the west would think of as a good change, but then is the enforced acceptance of US mores via trade sanctions and bully boy policies any different to indigenous cultures.

It's all about perception.

Lots of people were murdered in the streets by thugs seeking to assure the ascendancy of American-style capitalism during the Cold War, often directly backed by the American government.  Ask any Chilean whose last name isn't Pinochet, or plenty of other Latin Americans for that matter, or the victims of any number of American puppet regimes in Southeast Asia.

That isn't to say that there is no difference between Western imperialism and Islamofascism.  But to say that there is no commonality is to betray one's own total lack of clue.

KoOS

Yay, we're evil and greedy and heartless! And we're on top of the heap! God, I love my country! Thanks be to "whoever" that I wasn't born in one of your squalid lumps of soil otherwise known as a "country" (and I use the term advisedly).

Rage against the machine, dudes - rage!

As they say - better to rule in Hell than serve in Heaven.

(yes, I'm in a mood today, why do you ask?)

I could dug up some links about Coco-Cola's anti-union activities in certain parts of the Developing World, but that would be petty

This I actually agree with

Sprots is a dreadful game

Who exactly are you talking about here Noxboy? You see your problem is that there are lterally millions of muslims who haven't vowed to force anything on you and I and just as many who are looking to examine and change their institutions but that doesn't seem to matter to you. Your failure to admit this is the real evidence of a very dangerous bigotry which allows you to de-humanize people and justify whatever gets done to them.

BTW I like the beard James but you really shouldn't play with matches.
