I'm not "favoring" anyone. Do what is righteous, you'll receive a righteous man's reward. Do what is unrighteous, and receive an unrighteous man's reward.

They've been fighting in the Middle East since the beginning of time, and will continue fighting until the end of time. Best thing to do is let them try to figure it out themselves, and for us to stay out of it. There is no way we can possibly solve any of it.

We might not be able to solve it, but providing military equipment sure won't bring peace either.

A mutual defense treaty doesn't require us to retaliate against foreign invaders?

Who knew?

Being Muslim doesn't make you an animal. And "Muslim animals" is a racist remark.

Basic education here, folks. Entry level stuff.

Muslims aren't a race. Saying "Arab animals" would be racist. Islam is a religion, not a race of people.

That's true. But the effect is the same. Let's call it "religious slurring." It's denegrating and offensive. And it does nothing to teach people to learn to respect and get along with their neighbors.

So along with education, we need to learn what was being taught on in elementary school: play fair, be nice, share, don't hit.....


Basic stuff. Sandbox lessons.



Peace.
