    "You can believe in stones as long as you don't throw them at me"

    Great line. She talks a lot of sense but I don't really know what she expects to achieve.

    Remember that programme Clarissa Explains It All with Melissa Joan Hart in it? Well Turd Ferguson is the annoying little brother from that only now he's all grown up and running for president.

    Here's a picture:
    Ferguson


    P.S. He might tell you Turd Ferguson is not his real name and he got it from a SNL sketch but that's just not true.

    She speaks a lot of sense. Maybe you should have posted this in the muslim forum?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,165 ✭✭✭✭brianthebard


    Sense? Its just another version of Freud's Other. *puffs pipe*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,581 ✭✭✭judas101


    I know this isnt going to be taken seriously in AH but that lady is perfectly right.

    Fair play to her speaking out on Muslim TV like that.

    Perhaps move it to muslim forum?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,859 ✭✭✭✭Sharpshooter


    He called her a Heretic to justify not being able to answer her many points.
    A very intelligent lady to be sure , and a brave one at that.

    IT would need to be in a more general forum. I think it's for all and not just Muslims.

    I was going to post it in the "links" section but facked it up. :rolleyes:

    If a mod wishes to move to a more suitable place, feel free please.

    Exactly.

    The fact that she managed to get her point of view across without being silenced is quite incredible for starters.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,094 ✭✭✭✭javaboy

    Why? Al Jazeera is usually pretty balanced all things considered.

    The way he was moving those papers around l thought he was looking for just that, A Silencer.
    Seriously though you could see he was at a loss for words and therefore anger took over and he starts name calling. Don't think it will be safe for her to walk the streets among his followers though , unless she is made of the same stuff as the Swedish Twins from the other Thread.:pac:

    No one giving props to Al Jazerra for putting her on in the first place though?

    I've never really watched it to form an opinion, It is of course used by fanatics to get their message across to the west.

    That may of course mean that they are either very liberal in what they broadcast (as in they'll allow a very wide range of views) or they just support the extremist views. I think it's more likely the former rather than the latter.

    PS I wasn't having a pop at Al Jazeera, just middle eastern media in general.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,191 ✭✭✭Feelgood


    She is the kind of person that you need to run a country in fairness. Great speech..

    I'd do her after watching that...

    As is Fox. Just different fanatics. :D It's actually far more balanced than many western media outlets.

    Btw Rté has been heavily criticised in the past for allowing terrorist organisations to spread their message too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,526 ✭✭✭m@cc@


    Great speech and maybe carries a bit more substance from someone with obvious ties to both sides of the conflict.

    A very interesting video. She made some excellent arguments. The metaphore of believing in stones was a little bit of genius.

    Best self contradiction within the one sentence evor. FACT1!!

    Not at all!

    I'm referring to the fact that,
    a; I dont watch it
    b; they often broadcast videos on behalf of al-Qaeda and other extremist groups (as reported by the westerm media "this is the latest video from Bin Laden as broadcast on Al Jazerra").


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,165 ✭✭✭✭brianthebard


    It was the "to form an opinion" part of your post that was contradictory.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    they broadcast videos on behalf of al qaeda?

    so what do you think a news station oughta do with a video by one of the main targets in the war on terror?

    If everyone had her attitude then we could all live peacefully together.

    Try doing a search on youtube for Wafa Sultan and you should get an idea of what's going on. :)

    I love the way the only thing he can say is "Oh so you're a heretic then?" - obviously a very perceptive man :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 994 ✭✭✭Carrigart Exile


    That was powerful and very brave stuff.

    Clearly cut so you only hear one side of the argument but powerful stuff nonetheless
