    Jihad means to fight against evil - Tate’s actions are evil in the eyes of Islam and most people in the world.

    I don’t mean Sharia Law.

    I never said acid attacks are justified. I’m saying that even to these men who attack women with acid, what the Tates are doing and did is abhorrent to even someone like that.

    And here, about acid attacks by Islamic groups, there’s a bunch, idk why you all who literally don’t care about women even slightly have to act like you know anything about acid attacks or what women go through, but you have to deny it outright because…?

    I gave sources further down the chain and already explained acid attacks are worldwide and not confined to Islam.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_attack

    Afghanistan

    Such attacks or threats against women who failed to wear hijab, dress “modestly” or otherwise threaten traditional norms have been reported in Afghanistan.[111] In November 2008, extremists subjected girls to acid attacks for attending school.

    The attacks appeared to be the work of the Taliban, the fundamentalist movement that is battling the government and the American-led coalition. Banning girls from school was one of the most notorious symbols of the Taliban’s rule before they were ousted from power in November 2001.

    The Levant

    In 1983, acid attacks were reported to be carried out by Mujama al-Islamiya against men and women who spoke out against the Mujama in the Islamic University of Gaza.[123] Additional attacks by Mujama al-Islamiya were reported through 1986

    During the First Intifada, Hamas and other Islamist factions conducted an organized intimidation of women to dress “modestly” or wear the hijab. Circulars were distributed specifying proper modest dress and behavior. Women who did not conform to these expectations, or to “morality expectations” of secular factions, were vulnerable to attacks which included pouring acid on their bodies, rock pelting, threats, and even rape.[125][123][126] B’Tselem has also documented additional attacks with acid in specific attacks involving women in a collaboration context.

    In 2006–07, as part of a wider campaign to enforce Islamist moral conduct, the al-Qaida affiliated “Suyuf al-Haq” (Swords of Righteousness) claimed to have thrown acid on the faces of “immodestly” dressed woman in Gaza as well as engaging in intimidation via threats.

      I understood your intent but mixing it with absurd statements is not something I agree with. Using taliban as a “sect” is simply rubbish. I know how disgustingly violent and misogynist they are. You are simply arguing bad faith if you talk as if taliban is a “sect” that Anyone outside Afghanistan can follow. It’s a terror regime, not a sect.

      I noticed this a lot. When speaking for muslims, people always add these dehumanising disclaimers. No one talks about israeli oppression or bizarre jewish laws when speaking up against anti-sematism. Same goes for topics like hate against indians abroad. No one adds a disclaimer except when it’s about muslims. “Hey, they have the right to live. Even though they are probably bombers, don’t harm them!” Tired of this bs

      NYT the same guys that posted about 40 beheaded babies? Sure I’ll believe it. You simply have no knowledge regarding this topic. I’m blocking you.

        It’s not absurd. It’s reality.

        Sounds like I was correct, and there were more groups than just the Taliban that were listed anyway.

        I wasn’t speaking “for” Muslims, I was pointing out the incongruence in Tate’s behavior and how that will clash with Muslim values and possibly extremists, made aware because he’s infamous.

        No one talks about israeli oppression or bizarre jewish laws when speaking up against anti-sematism.

        I wasn’t speaking up against Islamophobia. I was talking about how a recent convert to Islam, who is a horrible terrible human trafficker and rapist, is so bad that he may trigger the ire of extremists in the religion he joined TO SCAM PEOPLE via crypto. That’s why they were mentioned- as a comparison to Tate.

        And I see Jewish hate often now that it’s cool to hate Israel, and Indian hate to a lesser degree. Further, you bringing up Jews and Indians - they are pretty classic groups many Muslims hate. So you’re entirely aware they indeed get criticism and that’s probably why you specifically mention them and not Christians. Seems racist of you.

        “Hey, they have the right to live. Even though they are probably bombers, don’t harm them!” Tired of this bs

        I wasn’t talking about rights. You’re tired of BS you’re inventing to be upset about, maybe stop doing that.

        You’re welcome to disregard the NYT link and see the other examples listed.
