OIC Ministers to Combat Misconceptions of Islam
2006-09-09
Tackling the rising tide of Islamophobia in the West is one of the four main points to be taken up for discussion at the Seventh Session of the Islamic Conference of Information Ministers that begins in Jeddah on Wednesday. The conference will be preceded by a two-day preparatory meeting of senior information officials from the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) member states. It begins at the Jeddah Conference Palace today.

Addressing a joint press conference at Jeddah Crowne Plaza last night, Culture and Information Minister Iyad Madani and OIC Secretary-General Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu said: "The conference aims to come up with a joint action to face up to the challenges of our time, especially with the rise of hate crimes and Islamophobia in the West and the confusion resulting from the unfortunate mixing up of Islam with terrorism."
You want to quickly eliminate "Islamophobia"? Actively hunt down and ruthlessly kill every terrorist you get wind of. No explanations accepted, no dissimulation, just a bullet to the back of the head. Or maybe cut their heads off, we don't care. When Islam as an international force is something terrorists are afraid of, then we can talk.

#12  The fact that moslems have to claim this title of "moderate" clearly shows that it's essential nature is certainly neither moderate nor peaceful when the rabble rousing mullahs appear.

D@mn good point, Duh!.

#11  OIC seeks to combat perceptions that are too close to reality for their liking. I have known some decent Muslims, but what little decency Islam has was borrowed from Christianity and Judaism.

#10  Misconception: A mistaken thought, idea, or notion; a misunderstanding.

Uh, excuse me, but we're NOT mistaken. We DON'T have the wrong idea. And we DO understand you very well. Take your filthy islamist propaganda elsewhere. We're not buying.

#9  "Moderate Moslems" are never able to keep their house in order but implicitly supports this sort of piss :
Indonesia: Angry Mob Attacks Church in Aceh
There's never the need to specify moderate Christians or Buddhists for the very reason that their (present day)teachings do not support violence.

The fact that moslems have to claim this title of "moderate" clearly shows that it's essential nature is certainly neither moderate nor peaceful when the rabble rousing mullahs appear.

#8  Misconceptions:

Islam is a Religion of Peace and Tolerance.
There are Moderate Moslems, and they are the vast majority.
Terrorism is unislamic.

#7  "Misconceptions of islam"

That's like an euphemism for (you're) 'ignorant' and 'stupid'.

We, from all NON OIC, can assuringly tell Light from Darkness unlike the mindless zombied denizens of the OIC.

#6  I have no Misconceptions of Islam. Do you have Misconceptions of Islam? I did not think so.

#5  The All-Powerful one also hates The Simpsons

Reason enough to exterminate Islam, right there.

#4  The values from OIC are from a blighted parallel universe ; time to seal that stargate to that scatological influence. Stop leting them into the progressing/democratic world! Let them ahareout and eat their black goo amid their grime.

#2  Note to OIC: Instead of looking into how to combat misperceptions of Islam, please begin investigating how to avert the pending Muslim Holocaust™. Time is running out.

#1  Yes OIC, we will show the hated infidel the strength of our jihad power from above. Allah is displeased with their bikinis and tight slacks. The All-Powerful one also hates The Simpsons, Acid Rock and Bubba the Love Sponge.
