It is getting tiresome to hear the anti-diversity ramblings of the Western anti terrorists crowd. Such narrow minded bigots choose to ignore the unique traditions and beliefs held by the jihadists, and they insist upon forcing Muslims to abide by our highly questionable Western standards.
Case in point is the incident with the six imams that were simply intimidating their Western co-passengers prior to takeoff. These men all believe that their god has ordained them with the task of murdering all non-believers, and rather than celebrate such diversity, we opted to castigate them for expressing their religious beliefs. Now these unfortunate gentlemen have to go through the hassle of a lawsuit just to protest the usurpation of their right to free religious expression. Because some anti-Muslim fanatics aboard a jetliner considered the act of praying to Allah something to be concerned about, these poor souls were made to feel unaccepted in our world, and we should all be quite embassed by the rudeness we displayed toward these foreigners.
Though it is true that every terrorist hijacker has been a Muslim, there is no reason for anyone to fear the actions of another passenger who also might happen to be a follower of Islam. We owe it to the Muslim people to make them feel welcome in our society, and we should strive to eliminate every possible act that could be considered offensive or repressive to their ways. Thus, rather than be fearful of strange acting Muslim air passengers, we should rejoice at their religious enthusiasm, and to make them feel totally welcome instead of feeling oppressed, we should eliminate the need for any Muslim to encounter airport screening at any time. By showing them more leniency than we show our own citizens, we are sure to win their trust. Yes, the occasional terrorist would slip through, but it would be a far better thing for our society to lose an occasional aircraft than to risk appearing as offensive to the peaceful followers of Islam. Our main goal at this time should be the total appeasement of Allah's followers, else they might become angry and punish us again.
The worse thing we can do as a nation is to appear culturally insensitive, for that is a far greater crime than anything the terrorists could ever do to us. And as many of our leading politicians insinuate, our imperialistic nation is already morally inferior to the terrorists, so there is no sense in making things worse. |
