Islam & America: Through the Eyes of Imran Khan - Pakistan

Nov 2001 Why do so many Muslims hate the United States? What has America done to alienate so many people in the Muslim world? These are the questions that former Pakistani cricketer turned politician, Imran Khan, tries to answer in this latest offering of the Unreported World series. At Islamabad's Women's College, a concert for peace is taking Place. The students are mainly from privileged, middle-class backgrounds. If you were looking for Muslims that sympathised with the West, this would be the first Place you would go. But even here, amongst the more liberal, "Westernised" Pakistanis, anti-American feeling is riding high. "It's as if one white life was far more important than thousands of black or brown lives," comments one young, educated, middle-class woman. "They feel they can basically come in, use as they please, and then, when they want, they can just walk across the border, go somewhere else, and do exactly as they please there," complains another. The underlying feeling here is clearly that the US only cares or acts when its own people are at risk. If these liberal, cosmopolitan women feel this way about America, how must those who do not benefit from the Western way of life feel?

Jan 4, 2009 - Dolittle say much: Patents are a signal of rising economic strength, thats why you only need to look at the US patents plateaued over the last 10 years, marking the US decline. Even after you are long passed away, Islam will be bigger than ever! So your kind live their lives in vain, hopelessly protesting as coach potatoe activists, hiding behind the web, frightened of revealing their racist motives to the real world. BTW..When was the last anti muslim protest? Don't remember seeing one..

Jan 4, 2009 - You see.. in the flawed anglo-saxon model of capitilism, the bigger a company gets the more it outsources to reduce its costs, to bring in more profits. These jobs are outsourced mostly to the middleeast and India. In an effort to make even higher profits, US CEO's began to outsource innovation aswell. Thus reducing the amount of new patents. It's good that you bought the subject of patents up, otherwise i wouldn't have had the opportunity to discuss one of the important factors of US decline.

Jan 4, 2009 - As for oil. You are speaking complete and utter nonsense. You telling me the world doesn't need oil?!? You know, it doesn't bother the Arabs if oil drops below $30 a barrel, because its still profitable for them! Its as easy as sticking a straw in the ground. However the US heavily subsidised oil plants are being shut down losing billions! Please try and backup your claims with facts not fiction.

Jan 4, 2009 - When you say flawed capitalist model it is strange you failed to mention a better operating economic model. I am hoping you dont say Islamic models as they passed into oblivion so many centuries ago that only a retarded muslims would try and make a comparison. This is where you will continue to fail i.e. when you hang on to outdated, erroneous fantasies you will continue swinging in trees. There is no escape from that reality and God doesnt suffer fools gladly.

Jan 4, 2009 - In 2005, US patent filing grew 6.4%. By the quality of the educational institutions you can see there is no Muslim country in the horizon.United States (46,115 international patent filings) Japan (24,829) Germany (16,002) France (5,736) UK (5,103) South Korea (4,686) Netherlands (4,530) Switzerland (3,264) Sweden (2,858) China (2,501) Italy (2,351) Canada (2,322) Australia (1,999) Finland (1,890) Israel (1,456).

Jan 4, 2009 - USA has a target of 20% from alt energy over next 10yrs and some nations have even more aggressive targets. The replacement of the internal combustion engine to an electric one will have significant impact on oil consumption. Big auto makers such as Toyota, Nissan, GM are spending billions buying battery companies. Nissan has upped battery production from 65,000 to 200,000 annually and production starts in 18months. There are big changes on the way as corporations prepare the move away from oil.

Jan 6, 2009 - To think that the creator of our, 12 billion year old, universe has dictated a book for one primate species, on one crummy planet, to read, is extremely idiotic. Especially seeing that every human sect has a book of their own, all written a different god. This primate species also happens to be the only species that 1. Knows it's going to die 2. Has a vivid imagination 3. Is particularly narcissistic and rather enjoys the idea of having been created by an all loving alpha-male in the sky. :)

Jan 7, 2009 - its time international community notices hindu terrorism against muslism, christians,sikhs,asaamees,kashmiris,and other oppressed communities of india india should be declared a terrorist state as it has killed more people than any other nation in name of religious hatred terrorist india should be bombed and attacked..so lets declare india a terrorist country and deal it like america dealt with iraq.hindus are a coward nation they wont even give resistance like iraqi mujahideen didtoo
