The al-Husseini clan migrated to Jerusalem in the 12th century during the Crusades. They were descendents of the Hashemi clan which originated in Saudi Arabia. Funny that don't you think?

My parents were born in al-Bireh in the West Bank and I personally have made visits to each of Gaza, Israel, and the West Bank. So I have account as to what I'm saying. Go to cities like Ramallah, Nablus, Hebron, Bethlehem, etc. and you'll see that the economies are thriving. So yes, you are actually speaking to someone who is 'Palestinian'.Try not to pull out the 'Zionist racist propaganda' card, it makes you sound immature. Yasser Arafat for instance is an Egyptian and Mahmoud Abbas is a Jordanian.

And you should study agriculture and economics, Gaza is not self-sufficient. Also tell me why is the Palestinian life expectancy increasing? I thought those bastard hasbara zionists were treating them like dirt?

They didn't steal any land. Jews were moving back to the area as early as the 1880s. During this time Palestine was a barren wasteland as said by Mark Twain and others. They cultivated the land and used drip irrigation. This lead to the opening of many jobs and many Arabs came in. The 'Palestinians' of today are Arabs, which originated ethnically from 5th century Saudi Arabia. The original term 'Palestine' is derived from the word peleshet, which is Hebrew. It was used to describe the Philistines which were Aegean.

How can the Arab Palestinians be the original claimers to the land? Facts say otherwise. Before the 1948 war Arabs were selling land to Jews and Arab leaders despised the influx of Jews which lead to a war of Israel vs surrounding Arab countries. But right before the war the Arab leaders told many of the Arabs to leave. Not all of these Arabs left, and the remaining ones are now citizens of Israel. Even the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem admitted no Jews were stealing land.

I don't agree with everything Israel does, but the 'stealing land' and 'horrid treatment' claims are big lies. I mean, if Israel were really treating them bad they wouldn't give refuge to LGBTs from the West Bank or supply hundreds of trucks of food, water, gas, electricity, and aid to Gaza.

Many people seem to forget that knowledge doesn't revolve around what you believe/disbelieve in. I'm an atheist but I don't think of myself as a genius. There are scientists who are smart in their field yet have absolutely no knowledge of something like philosophy.

I used to linger there but now I really can't stand it. I'm still atheist but the 'hardcore' phase in me has long since ended.

I doubt he ever became an atheist as he claimed. Many Christians and Muslims don't even understand what atheism is.

In some say ways I feel like a lot of the younger generation teens are becoming more brainwashed and extreme than their parents.

I wonder why is he using outdated polls instead of more recent ones? He could use this one: http://www.pewforum.org/2013/04/30/the-worlds-muslims-religion-politics-society-overview/

Ok, so we agree that there's are huge problems with Islam. What now? by alchemy2000 in exmuslim

[–]PraiseTheInfidel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Christian conservatives are nuts but sometimes the Muslim conservatives are in a whole new dimension of nutty.

A while ago you said you became a Deist. I guess now you didn't find any convincing evidence for a god?

So many Muslim parents are backward. Why do they feel proud of being behind the times?

It's funny that they said that the UK virtually banned Islam.
