@rayyanqureshi8622 : Numerous Islamic countries, or states within countries, maintain the de*th penalty for both apostasy and blasphemy TODAY. Many Muslim-majority countries heavily punish anyone who "disrupts the social fabric" by talking about not being a believer in Islam. Where's the lie?

@victorvolobuev507 : I agree. Most Muslims have better morals than Islam, and they are not permitted to "do the research" because that might cause them to doubt the faith they were born into.

@chinavirus841 : I don't think so. Islam is losing power. The trend is for Muslims to leave Islam because they are discovering that it's an imposter religion. It is primarily an ideology for invading and conquering, and that strategy doesn't work in the 21st century. The prophet of Islam knew it would come to an end.

@chinavirus841 : What evidence do you have for this? The growing trend is for Muslims to leave Isl*m. ☪ is primarily an ideology for invading and conquering. That strategy won't work in the 21st century. The prophet of Isl*m knew it would come to an end. #AbrahamAccords

@zahidnoori6874 : Asking questions and debating Islam are quite different from "critically examining" Islam. Why are apostates punished severely when they are caught speaking in a critical way about Islam? When you ask a question, for example about girl-child marriage, multiple wives, or wife-beating, can you reject the answer of the Quran or Hadiths if it goes against your own moral judgement? Quran 49:15 seems to make it clear that you cannot be critical about anything in the Quran, or in the example of Muhammed, and remain a Believer. "The ˹true˺ believers are only those who believe in Allah and His Messenger—never doubting—and strive with their wealth and their lives in the cause of Allah. They are the ones true in faith."

@zahidnoori6874 : Can you say something derogatory about Islam? Can you reject something that Allah and His Messenger said or did?

@zahidnoori6874 : Blasphemy is no longer considered wrong by most religious people except Muslims. Freedom of speech is far more important. When people can't speak freely, they are oppressed, and societies do not progress. It has nothing to do with being insulting or inciting hatred. Being critical and rejecting behaviour that is NOT compatible with 21st century life is important. Things such as multiple wives, girl-child marriage, wife beating, inequality in divorce, rape in marriage, inequality between men and women and Muslims and non-Muslims, freedom to leave Islam and speak out to others about why you left. Islam has many things that go against the human rights that the vast majority of the world practices. Do you live in an Islamic Sharia ruled country?

It makes sense that the Allied Forces supported the founding of a democratic Jewish state on 1% of the the Middle East land, particularly as it has strategic and ideological value to the west. Wars have consequences. The losers, the collapsed Ottoman Caliphate and Arab Muslims, didn't get to call all the shots.

That can only happen if the the majority of Palestinians and their corrupt leaders accept Israel as a legitimate nation state. I doubt that will ever happen.

@ricksolari9570 : This 5 min video "Why Are There Still Palestinian Refugees?" explains the complex refugee situation that occurred after the founding of Israel in 1948. It includes the 'ethnic cleansing' of Jews from Arab nations. Let me know what other explanation you need... https://youtu.be/sY0FOPa-j-E

'Daily counter-terrorism actions' describes them more correctly. And the majority killed are #jihadi militants who are then hailed as martyrs by the Islamist groups. Their families get monthly payouts from the Palestinian Authority.

The founding of Israel has nothing to do with WWII. The Zionist Jews fought with the British in WWI against the Germans and Ottoman Empire, in return for the promise of territory. As did the Hejazi Arabs who fought with British Lawrence of Arabia. The Ottoman Turks and Arabs of Palestine were DEFEATED in 1918. That's how the #indigenous Jewish people were granted the legal right to reconstitute their ancestral homeland. It has taken decades for them to complete their sovereignty over the Holy Land, due to jiha@dist violence and the fact that most of the world's oil wealth is in the hands of Arab Muslims. But that's all changing now. #FinalCrusade
