and not a single condemnation of any of the atrocities that he cited, how very very
very very telling. what do you put it down to Gerald, small mindedness, an
unwillingness to face certain facts, attempts to use a pretext to minimise the Islamic
reaction?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieSo when you stated this on page 1 of this thread -
actually the lack of condemnation with regard to the actual atrocities where dasa was
fervently chastised speaks volumes and is far more interesting and revealing than your
vile insinuations and attempts not to answer why its the case.
our secular liberal friends will be falling over themselves to excuse these atrocities on some pretext at any moment.
Which atrocities are you referring to exactly?

perceive to be a failure of the secular liberals to decry, condemn or in some instances
fail to recognise the culpability of serious atrocities committed by Muslims. It was
made on the back of Finnegan failing to recognise the legitimacy of some of the points
of the innocence of Muslims which i pointed out were valid facts, Muhammads father
was unknown, he did impose a tax on non Muslims etc etc It appeared to me to be
ultimately telling that while Dasas posting of hate speech was roundly condemned, the
actual accounts which he gave to substantiate his claims were largely ignored, why still
remains a mystery.

So, now we have established that, what about you now explaining what you meant about fellow posters seeking to excuse the atrocities that were described in the OP? I can't remember anyone on this forum seeking to excuse rape. Do you have any examples you can give us?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieDid you read Dasa's deleted thread? There were numerous condemnations of [1] the rapes he mentioned, and [2] the fact that Dasa claimed that these rapes proved that all Muslims are rapists. Did you condemn the rapes described on that deleted thread? Did you condemn them more than other people or less than other people?

Really? So the OP described some specific atrocities. And then in your reply, the words "these atrocities" did not refer to the atrocities in the OP? Is that what you want us to believe?

liberals and once again I have not limited my statements to rape, or the rape of
children, but I understand that it suits your insinuations to reduce it to such. The failure
to condemn is in my opinion, telling in itself or perhaps you can provide a reasonable
explanation why there doesn't seem to be any. My own theory is that secular liberals
are fence sitters, in their endeavours to be all encompassing, all inclusive, non
committal, non partisans it appears that condemnation of any kind, no matter how
heinous the crime, is simply lacking, how else are we to account for it.

Perhaps they are also secular liberals, that might explain their silence on the matter.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieBut you haven't explained it yet. You've been dodging and deflecting since you were called on it. People can go and look at your first post on page one for themselves. Nothing has been 'made up'. You were not being called on the degree to which you condemned the rapes - nor was anyone else's intensity of condemnation the issue - you were simply asked to explain why you thought fellow posters would seek to excuse the rapes described in the OP.
Indeed, you can believe what you want, you make it up as you go long anyway.

not provide any type of pretext, you did. I have explained my position, I will not do so
again.
