How can it possibly be any sort of "..ophobic" merely to remind people of what happened?

[naomi24]

The IRA aren't 'like-minded' terrorists.  Islam's political philosophy is like no other.

11:45 it does no harm to remind people. Is it Islamophobic when they replay the 9/11 attrocities?

Is it Islamphobic to make and show the film discussed here?

NAOMI, I meant -"like-minded" as in supporting similar objectives of the IRA.

[naomi24]

Islam's objectives aren't even similar, Corby.  

 

[THECORBYLOON]

I wasn't comparing objectives but both groups involve the use of terrorism with the aim of reaching those different objectives. 

[naomi24]

Corby, I see what you're saying but Islam uses other means too  - attaining high office is one.

[THECORBYLOON]

There are those in high office supporting a united Ireland but it doesn't mean they support terrorist actions to achieve that objective.

[naomi24]

Some choose to be politicians rather than terrortists - but the goal is the same.

TTT,  The language you used in describing another member was highly derogatory and that isn't acceptable.  This is an emotive topic but please watch your language.

[ToraToraTora]

13:02 It's not easy to respond to someone who thinks the IRA are in any way comparable to Islam, you said so yourself.

[THECORBYLOON]

Go on, give it a go, you know you want to...

[Peter Pedant]

The IRA aren't 'like-minded' terrorists.

I can see " wrong kind of terrorist" galloping over the horizon -  oh well it is AB on a Friday night
