Heheheh ... complete, absolute butchery of what I would assume is her native language. The really amazing thing is that this (apparently) wasn't just a random post or comment on some internet forum somewhere ... it appears to be an article written by a particular author and posted on a website...

Because of historical events, leveling it as a charge has been a very potent weapon. Sadly, it is becoming devalued by those who would level it carelessly or spuriously - often simply in an effort to prevail in a political disagreement. This - in my mind at least - is actually an insult to...

Phil Weiss chimes in with additional observations on the NY Times coverage of the survey and some thoughts on logical inconsistencies: Original article: 'NYT' publishes unvarnished propaganda saying Palestine is hotbed of anti-Semitism

Google now reports "about 5,000 results" for "Home Depot Rolls out the carpet for Sharia Law" ... undoubtedly mostly in the right-wing echo-chamber ... "Home Depot Rolls out the carpet for Sharia Law" - Google Search In checking the 2nd through 4th results (after already having read the 1st...

Very rarely does the frothing Islamophobe engage in discernment of such clearly obvious points of differentiation ... Doesn't fit or serve the agenda ...

Yes ... and, ironically enough, some of those governments - if not a majority - are in, or continue in, power solely due to support from the United States government ... who, of course, has a long, sordid, documented history of enabling them ...

You need to read a little further if that was all you saw. You focus solely on chemical castration ... while completely ignoring surgical castration ... How convenient ! A truly great "pro-life" answer ... But nonetheless it is an interesting answer - since it appears to make an assessment...

Nope ... the press release - all rabid frothing aside - is announcement of a event that occurred, and noting that they - as an organization - offer a booklet which is designed to educate employers on matters of religious concern to a particular religious community ... It really isn't...

From the article - which references something which appears to press release - it doesn't appear that they demanded anything ... despite wild assertions and much frothing to the contrary ... Once again, it appears you have provided something which appears to be something which it actually is...

Still no takers ... lol ...

True ... other than the eight states which allow what might be considered the ultimate mutilation: chemical or surgical castration of sex offenders ... Not entirely accurate: Capital punishment in the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Also true ... but then under sharia a...

Personally, I have absolutely no problem acknowledging that certain aspects of religious legal codes - including sharia - are out of step with modern concepts of what constitutes appropriate punishment. But I wonder if others can find their voice to expand their condemnation beyond their...

What's really amazing is the desperation of those whose motivations might well stem from religious bigotry, to use sharia as weapon to further their efforts to demonize and stigmatize people of a particular faith, as well as the faith itself ... The ironies are so numerous that they are hard to...

A seemingly reasonable thought at first blush to be sure ... but rather simplistic at best ... First off, making observations is far, far different than offering advice ... Second, I would say that someone who has been involved in an unsuccessful marriage that ultimately didn't last -...

Still no takers on that "what punishment is appropriate ?" question I see ... I'll check back later ...

If that is really true, then why are you trying so hard to compare and differentiate them ? Some long-standing, deep-seated aspiration to be Sisyphus ? Right ... (see above)

ari, You know ... it just occurred to me why some folks might be reluctant to answer up on the question I asked you earlier regarding what would be appropriate punishment for the crime mentioned in the article in the OP: While there are many who would condemn the punishment the man was...
