Right when I think I have read it all I come across the story linked below... :confused: Talk about control freaks that use killing as a method of fear for the purpose of compliance to backwards conservative hatred. Please reply with your thoughts...



Backwards? Uhhhhh a BIG yes.



Quote 1: [quote]<strong>"A dog trained to carry messages between two Jordanian lovers has been stoned to death after his secret mission was discovered."<hr></blockquote></strong>



Quote 2: [quote]<strong>"The "canine Cupid" was buried in the owner's back yard in the town of Zarqa, 27 kilometres (17 miles) north-east of the Jordanian capital Amman."<hr></blockquote></strong>

    Don't reduce his post to that simplistic reaction . . . there is obviously something wrong with the scenerio of stoning a dog to death for its delivering notes!!



    Perhaps he is refering to that thing that is wrong beyond the facile notion that it is Islam itself . . .



    What i find interesting is that the dog was killed out of rage because it started to attack the girsls brother and yet teh media is couching it in such a way as to make it seem to be teh work of those dastardly Islamites . . . .



    even though there are awful "honor killings" it appears that the dogs death had nothing to do with that sort of thing at all . . . except that the girls brother wanted to know what was up with the notes and got attacked . . .

    hm? interesting story . . . not as interesting as it would have been if it really turned out to be that the daog was killed for being imoral . . . now that would have been interesting :eek:



    ...otherwise its a mole-hill-mountain of propaganda

    I wish it weren't so reactionary to dismiss Fellowship's posts. Maybe I'm blind, but I don't see how this says anything about Islam specifically.



    Granted, it does hint that people living in the area nearby palestine/israel seem to have violent tendencies, but I wouldn't be so quick to turn that into an islam vs. christianity thread.

    I hate journalists that leave out the vital parts of the story.



    [quote]

    After he snatched the marriage proposal from the dog, the brother became violent.



    The dog apparently attacked the man, who then smashed his head with a stone before vowing to run to his sister's suitor to threaten him with the same fate. <hr></blockquote>



    Is it just me, or is it a sign of the kind of world we live in, that I find it far easier to believe that the man attacked and killed the dog without provocation than the obedient, well trained dog picking a fight.



    I have no idea what Fellowship is talking about though. I'm happy to condemn this as another boring muslim bashing thread unless Fellowship can explain his comments.

    Xenophobic? Uhhhhh a BIG yes.
