Retrospring is shutting down on 1st March, 2025 Read more
Hi everyone.
To start, I'd like to show my gratitude for this amazing, very educative website page. The links and images make it very helpful and informative.
But when I read the last paragraph about common arguments, I found it wrong, morally wrong. Here is the paragraph in question:
• Not all Palestinians are not even a part of the religion you are stereotyping. not all Palestinians are Muslims — many are also Christians, Druze, Samaritans, as well as agnostic and atheists. Palestinian Jews also exist.
Islam and dangerous behaviour seemed like they were regrouped into one term. This participates in disinformation, and hateful behaviour. Then if Palestinians were all Muslims, would it be normal to stay silent and let them be killed?
That is why I'd like to suggest a paragraph that deals with this problem. This paragraph is pretty long, but "Muslim" is a very important argument today in this conflict, and in many other contexts. Therefore I believe it is just as important to talk about it more.
Here is the paragraph:
"Not all Palestinians (or Arabic people) are a part of the stereotyped violent, extremist, homophobic, misogynistic Islam that is spread by many occidentalist medias. This is absolutely not a representation of Muslim people. Muslims exist among Palestinians. Just people deserving of respect, who love Allah, and want to live with their faith in peace. And many are Christians, Jews, Druze, Samaritans, as well as agnostic and atheists. Palestine is diverse, it is populated with women, men, and people just like you and me. You can't call a whole population "Muslims" "terrorists" "homophobic" "misogynistic" and just take the liberty of destroying their country and killing every human in this specific territory. Muslim Palestinians are humans, and they have the right to live as much as we all do. You can disagree with a religion or a culture. But Muslim or not, no population is more deserving to be exterminated and stealed from."
I hope this comment will be taken in consideration to perhaps edit the website page, and I hope it will be educative to someone.
I wish you have a nice day, night or evening!
