Re: Islamism & Islamophobia Abroad - News & Analysis
Muslims have only themselves to blame for practicing the "We Need More Islam" syndrome. Claiming they are sucked in to it, is like claiming they were sucked into 2-Nation Theory and blaming others for that too.

Re: Issues faced by Commonwealth Games-New Delhi 2010
Strongly disagree with your response. You may not have noticed, but I spend a lot of time posting gora articles that bash India, as well as posting rebuttals to them.
