Just a Random Question...

I've always wondered; why is it that when ultra-conservative Muslims become expatriates, they expect to apply their cultural and religious views to everyone around them? Mind you, I'm not just talking about themselves or their families, I'm talking about their new towns, cities, etc. by and large. It just seems odd to me that someone would move to a new place where things may be the complete opposite of what they are used to but still expect life to be exactly the same. Bleh..*shrug*

This has got to be some sort of joke...


Yesterday , I had to do a double take when I was watching the news because I heard about this . Apparently, Palestinian islamists have been threatening to decapitate female Palestinian TV reporters for the protection of the ethics and morals of the nation. They seem to have reached the decision that "uncovered" women (i.e. not covering their faces) on Television are ruining the ethics of the Palestinian youth and corrupting the society, therefore they resolved that they would generously take it upon themselves to go ahead and behead those harlots.
Why didn't anyone tell me that the struggle of the Palestinian people was over with Israel and that there was peace in the middle east!? No more bombs, No more killing! Well, hurrah , hurrah! All we have to do now is tear the heads off of those pesky, distracting female reporters on TV and all our troubles will be over!

...What do you say...? There still isn't peace in the middle east?

THEN WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THOSE PEOPLE!??

This is how they think they're going to better their country!? By beheading women and blowing up internet cafes!? When did this popular theory emerge all over the Arab and Islamic world that by covering up women, somehow someway, any and all problems would just , disappear? I knew this theory was popular but I just never thought it would manifest itself this way in a place riddled with enough problems to last it a few lifetimes.
Yes, yes I know that they're living in difficult conditions and they use islam as a means to hold on to a glimmer of hope but frankly, I'm quite pissed off about people acting like retards/barbarians/utter idiots and taking islam down in the gutter with them. You want to act like criminals? Do it on your own account for once. I should probably say that these extremist groups with nothing better to do then to annihilate all God-Given rights women have and then go off to blow up a cafe or a mall or something before dinner , should step up and act like men and take responsibility for their actions without hiding behind religion. I should say that, but I can't, because it seems that they've been literally spat out of the category of "men" quite a long time ago.
