Esposito the leftie has written a lot of stuff attacking America including this one.
While Americans may not be the most fair and perfect, they still allow its citizens a lot of opportunities regardless of their religion.
If you can get the job done in a corporation, you are hired regardless of your accent, skin color, or religion.
However it will help us Pakistanis if you share your experience as a Muslim in Canada.
Because in general Canadians and Americans have similar attitutdes towards religions (give and take some points).
Once you are done, contrast your analysis with how different Muslim sects are treated in Pakistan and places ruled by Mullahs of Saudi and Ayatullahs of Iran.
thank you.
He speaks the truth and his is a scholarly read , can you refute it?
For my - long - experience in North America
First you have to get the job and than prove you can handle it.
With so much arrogance in north American whites, even if you do a job a hundred times more efficiently than them and you are Muslim (or should I say a non Judeo Christian) they will still look down on you or sabotage your innocent and genuine efforts, this is how they see competitiveness, for them it has to be aggressive , and short from physical aggression they will use any and every dirty trick to lower you in the eyes of their superiors to feel good about themselves by all means, like some rotten kids even if they are in advanced age. It is the North American corporate culture that is based on aggressive behaviour applied to competitiveness to hide their true nature which is nothing short than violent in the deeper sense you can imagine.
Even when they seem to befriend you, you can be sure it is for a reason and a purpose if not a whole agenda, always to their advantage.(obviously there are some rare wonderful people).
So, in one word, they are extremely egoistic, jealous and covertly violent.
They are almost all instructed in school but very few are really educated.
You have to learn how to play the game in North America or Europe (I lived and worked in northern Europe for a few years),
And mostly to understand that by being a Muslim being labelled or not changes nothing to your faith, if it is strong, you can withstand anything they might throw at you and still win your cause.
There is no place for the weak faithed, nor the paranoid chaps on these lands, these latters are the causes of the labels.
Islam in general has brought some very positive social behaviours and results in the darkest side of America; many American Muslim converts were converted while in jail, and were very hardened criminals, which American system failed to incorporate to main stream populace, only Islam was able to make good citizens of the most hardened "criminals".
- Imagine what Islam can do for normal people! -
And for this it is perceived as a threat for Christianity or secularism(a scapegoat in this case). Does anyone see any logic in this threat perception?
To answer you about Muslim religious people you call Mullahs, my answer is that there are some very educated Ayotollahs or Ulama or Faqihs, apart from being scholars in Islamic religion, the best of them, and whom I appreciate the most, hold higher degrees in scientific fields also.
To talk bad about mullahs in Pakistan and Afghanistan who held to their faith with all their strength, and who has shown in dire times that they were the first to sacrifice themselves to stop foreign military and cultural invasions of their lands while they were open to foreign investments instead, or to compare them to wannabe false flag mullahs Drug lords will be a sin.
So to keep every thing in perspective, these guys in North America with all their fuss and fancy stuff are the worst Mullahs you can Imagine ; Judeo Christian Mullahs.
And they are behind what is going on there in south Asia because of their threat perception, and their defensive theory of bringing wars to the enemies territories is a well known scheme.
