Comments on: Israeli Soldiers (IDF) Photograph Dead as Trophies – Oznik http://muslimmatters.org/2008/05/08/idf-photographs-the-dead/ Discourses in the Intellectual Traditions, Political Situation, and Social Ethics of Muslim Life Thu, 09 Feb 2012 09:02:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Johnny California http://muslimmatters.org/2008/05/08/idf-photographs-the-dead/#comment-30462 Johnny California Tue, 04 Nov 2008 21:27:09 +0000 http://muslimmatters.org/2008/05/08/idf-photographs-the-dead/#comment-30462 Gentlemen, Yes, I find this offensive. It is cruel and insensitive. Let us also remember that the other long running pictures on the internet are films of two innocent (American) Jews getting their heads sliced off while the peace loving muslims watch the life drain from their eyes. The difference is...The Muslims hide there smiles behind chicken cloth. I am neither a muslim, nor a christian or a jew, but I can still see the ugly face of hipocracy on all sides of this dirty little war. If you don't find these films sickening and offensive to look at, or if you find no shame in this type of behaviour from ALL sides...Then I am afraid that NO loving GOD will ever forgive you.

Whether or not the practice continues until today, this article is about the circumstances which create such perverse instances of injustice. This is merely an example.of the product of those circumstances and is relevant though I will admit I had nothing to do with the choice of the picture, rather it was the MuslimMatters editors that made that decision.

As disturbed as I am about agression on the weak, regardless of the perpetrator, I wish to caution Muslims against the same type of bigotry that Islam teaches against and the media presents. I believe the photo in question, though unnerving, is an old photo that has circulated around the internet for some time. I remember seeing it at least a year ago. . . . . While abhoring the aggression against any people, least of all the Palestinians, and any other peoples of the world, it is important at the same time to try our best to stay above the hysteria and hate and strive toward seeking justice. Assalaam alaykum.

While every bit of news that relates Palestinians celebrating Israeli dead is beamed across the world... you don't hear much about the documented inhumane behavior of the IDF. We need to propagate this sort of info. as much as possible to balance the scale on facts.
