There something just plain bent with the people of the middle east.
Logic & rational thinking just do not apply.
1. Attacking anyone is a bad plan & shows a lack of respect for human life
2. If your going to attack the president of the US , you are taking a very big risk that you will get killed.
3. If you are going to attack some and risk your life, the shoe is not the best choice of weapon, a paper airplane after all might get him in the eye or a least inflict a nasty paper cut
I think it must be their education system or lack there of
I guess most of them are home schooled by their ignorant parents who then home school their nit wit kids.
Each one of them ingraining in their idiot offspring:
1. A lack of respect for human life
2. A lack of respect for women
3. A undeniable belief that their god is the one and only.
4. All other religious beliefs are an insult to their god and must be eliminated
5. Hatred of the Jews and the west
6. They are Superior to all others
7. Violence is an acceptable approach to obtain their objectives
8. Acts of martyrdom will be rewarded in the after life
They really need to take some oil money and build an education system that does not subscribe to these beliefs
John, I think you need to respect the middle east as a whole and not generalize and build an image of all of them just by one person throwing a shoe at the US President.
I agree, what he did was very rude indeed. It doesn't neccessarily mean that he is uneducated, or thinks of the west as bad or whatever. We dont even know his religion, but most likely he is a muslim.
I think , you need to stop generalizing, and open your own mind and be more educated and smarter and show it in your post .
He did what he did because of hatred, of what the US President Bush has done to his country. It has killed millions of innocent people, not only in Iraq , but other countries. What would you do if a foreign President, came to your home country, destroyed your home country, "claiming to fight against terror" and literally, leaving your homeland to nothing but a piece of crap. No clean water, no housing, no food, no future.
That foreign President then comes to your country, has the guts to do so, and pull a farewell goodbye meeting or whatever? I mean, come on !
Anyways, I don't have all day to reply to your post but all of hte points you mentioned are indeed incorrect, and wrong.
By you saying what you've said, does that mean, that the people of your religion do respect women, respect others, and love everyone else and there is no violence, or not wrong doing or crimes in your land ? I mean common. There are bad people and good people in every single country.
Stop generalizing and stop spreading hate .
