I never stand for the anthem for a variety of reasons one mainly being the countries views on Arabs and Muslims.

Christians in the Islamic world face far more discrimination and violence than Muslims anywhere in the West.

I’m sure he doesn’t stand for the Saudi, Iraqi, Iranian, or any other MENA country’s anthem either.

I never stand for the anthem for a variety of reasons one mainly being the countries views on Arabs and Muslims. And guess what, it's perfectly my right as an American to do that. It's not unamerican as the TRIGGERED right claims it is.

I do not see a problem with NFL players kneeling either. It's another false outrage the President and the right have.

America is not Anti Muslim or Anti Arab

You mean aside from the atmosphere of Islamophobia and racism directed towards Arabs and those who appear to be Arab to ignorant people, the government's history of racial profiling of Arabs and Muslims, the spying on Muslim communities following 9/11, the government's recent ban on people from several predominantly Muslim countries (while ignoring that the perpetrators of 9/11 were majority Saudi (excluded from the ban list) and most American terrorist attacks were conducted by people born in Western countries), and the hysterical right-wing conspiracies that are believed by a significant number of Americans (such as around half of Republican voters believing Obama is a Muslim)?

The fact is if you are an refugee or immigrant from the middle east you should not call America anti muslim as America gave you a better life.

Okay, I’m not a refugee or immigrant from the Middle East: America is anti-Muslim.

And your point is? Are we supposed to judge our country by the way people in other countries behave and are treated?

My point is that Muslims are hypocrites for complaining about ''Islamophobia'' in the West. It doesn't even come close to how non-Muslims are treated in most countries where Muslims make up a majority. If they think the West is so ''oppressive'', they should move to the part of the world where they are the ones in charge.

This is whataboutism to the nth degree.

Most of America's Middle East interventions since 2001 have been justified


Afghanistan- The tailban aided and gave safe haven to terrorist groups who did 9/11 , so the invasion of Afghanistan was totally justified , just as declaring war on Japan after Pearl Harbor was totally justified.


Iraq - This one was unjustified

Libya - Unjustified

Airstrikes against ISIS - totally justified as ISIS is a threat to the US and the world .



Today I have learned that 2/4 = "most"

3/5 since its happening in both Iraq and Syria.

Ah, neocon math.
