It looks like Arafat was murdered by the Israelis after all. No surprise there.

Jewish and Christian scriptures are also full of this kinda ****, BTW.

You find the Golden Rule in any of the major religions, even in Islam (

How do you reconcile the claim that Muhammad in his farewell sermon said, “Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you,” with the fact that in his deathbed he said, “No two religions are allowed in Arabia” and ordered the forced conversion, expulsion or ethnic cleansing of the Jews and Christians and the massacre of Pagans?

The sura 9, which is the last words of Muhammad, is a manifesto of discrimination and human rights abuses. This sura alone is proof that Islam is against the Golden Rule

The first requisite to feel the pain and suffering of others is to accept that they have feelings that they are like us who also feel hurt the way we do. If we dehumanize and deny such feelings on others we don’t feel any remorse in abusing them. Muhammad claimed all those who disbelieve in Allah are the worst creatures. He even said that all non-believers will end up in hell where they will be tortured for eternity. How then Muslims can treat equally those whom they believe to be worse than beast deserving of eternal punishment?

There is nothing in the Quran and Hadith that would make us believe that Islam is compatible with the Golden Rule.

I agree, one cannot restrict the Golden Rule to ones Muslim "brothers" and still have it retain it's universal message.

Thee brotherhood in Islam, however does not extend to everyone. Verse 9:23 of the Quran states that the believers should not take as friends and protectors (awlia), even their own fathers and brothers, if they love Infidelity above Islam. In fact there are many verses in the Quran that tell the Muslims to be harsh to unbelievers. The unbelievers in Islam are treated in the same way that the “niggers” and Jews are treated by white-supremacists[sic].

Perhaps, an Egyptian Prince can lead the Gazans into a Promised Land?

Drainage systems fail, causing major flooding in central and southern Israeli cities.
