There's a consensus amongst many, including non Muslims that there's a purposeful smear campaign on these "media outlets " attempts to demonize Muslims. Why? Because it makes maintaining military bases easier and more acceptable for the populaces receiving this propaganda.
1. It makes it easier to forget more than 1 million Iraqi citizens have been killed
2. Easier to forget hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians killed in Afghanistan including thousand of children
3. Easier to forget low thousands families killed by drone attacks in Pakistan and Yemen
4. It makes it easier to forget the UK/US in past century has been an active imperialist/colonialist powers with coups sponsored all over the globe from Asia to Africa to South America
5. It makes it easier to forget the media is a mouthpiece of the western military complex.
6. Makes it also easier to forget what the NSA is doing and how liberties of Americans are being violated increasingly
7. Makes It easier to forget the Taliban was created with is help, bin laden was a CIA agent "orginally, or that UK instilled the Baathist regime in Iraq of saddam. Or that UK helped Saud family take power ( see treaty of Jeddah 1927)
8. Also easy to forget who's funding these Al Qaeda rebels in syria fighting the government ( UK, France, Saudi, Qatar, us)
9. all these things can be conveniently put aside if you just want to maintain the status who in your mind and maintain your own version of reality. But there are many who refuse to remain ignorant.
Why is it that when people mention the atrocities done in the name of Islam, the so-called "moderate Muslims" never, ever try to explain how they believe those people aren't truly following Islam, but instead they try to blame the problem on the West and claim it's trying to demonize Islam? If you don't like the West's media coverage of Islam, perhaps you should be blaming the people that are out there slaughtering innocents in the name of your precious god, rather than pathetically pointing the finger at the people that rightfully talk about how many followers of Islam are guilty of human rights violations.
No one is responsible for Islam's image problem except for the assholes that carry out rape and murder in its name. But of course, the moderates never seem to want to address that. I wonder why that is?
THIS!!!!!!
Or is perhaps whats going on in syria 2 is sects of peaceful muslims peacefully sorting out their reasonable differences in a progressive and forward looking manner while the western media merely PORTRAYS it as a bunch of backwards bloodthirsty C**ts murdering each other by the thousand to prove that their way of following allah is the most peaceful.
Cos that sure is what it seems like.
