in the news every single day?
All other religions are sometimes mentioned for there nefarious activities.
JW's when a baby dies for want of a blood transfusion,
Catholic priests when they abuse kiddies,
Scientologists occasionally when they make some ridiculous announcment, etc,
the list goes on. But I cant watch the news anyday without Islam been mentioned in one news report or other.

Demonisation tactic ?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demonizing_the_enemy

The Demonizing the enemy, Demonization of the enemy or Dehumanization of the enemy[1] is a state propaganda technique which promotes an idea about the enemy being threatening evil aggressor with only destructive objectives.[2] Demonization is the oldest propaganda technique aimed to inspire hatred toward the enemy necessary to hurt them more easily, to preserve and mobilize allies and demoralize the enemy.[3]

So, are you saying the Islamists are being treated unfairly then?

Err, yes you did.
// So, are you saying the Islamists are being treated unfairly then?//

no I agree with OL, the muslims are being demonised - before being stigmatised, identified ( easy - dark skin and moustaches - I dont know what the men look like ter-daaah ! ) and deported
JWs refuse treatment for their own family but are over-ruled by courts in civilised countries.Catholic priests have abused Catholic children in their care and the civilised world has condemned them and the RC church via the Pope has apologised for it.
In all of history we can find instances of barbaric practices in the past - ask any suspected witch in 17c UK or New England! (If you believe in Spiritualism that is). Can't think of any religion that has not progressed in the past few centuries - apart from ?????, the one that still thinks beheading is a suitable punishment in non-capital cases and that seven virgins are awaiting them - how sad is that?
why is there a new thread about Islam on AB every day? I might almost think people are trying to brainwash me.

Let me know when you have found an answer. Otherwise I will tell you but you would not like mine.
If only people would listen to you, Keyplus.....
jno

Islam is a hot topic on AB because it's a hot topic in the global news. It seems that barely a week goes by without some fundamentalist Islamic lunatic going berserk in a shopping mall or office, shouting, "allahu akbar" and killing innocent civilians. These people make the news because they want to make the news. Violence and propaganda are the Islamist's tools and they are used repeatedly and relentlessly.
48 hours max.
Keyplus - "Let me know when you have found an answer. Otherwise I will tell you but you would not like mine."

Oh, please enlighten us Keyplus. Be so kind as to give us your superior wisdom. I beg of you to bestow upon us the reason why some people who subscribe to your religion turn out to be violent, intolerant, murderous lunatics all the while believing themselves to be devout and pious muslims. While you're at it, you can also throw in why you keep threatening me personally and persist with your mad insistence to meet with me in person.
Do tell.

Please.

keyplus and goodlife, the two main contributors on their respective religions on this site, epitomise what is wrong with all religions. They think they have a superior knowledge and arrogantly tell us they know the truth when in reality they don't. Their premise seems to be based on "if I think it's true it must be, proof? who needs it".
Vulcan - Im my experience of 9 years on this website I believe it is Atheists who believe that they know about everything.

In my experience atheist try to give the impression that you are clever or have a brain only if you are an atheist. Shame really.
