Someone named 'azaad' attempting to dismiss this as caricature and faulting the translation. Surely, there's no vested interest. Movin' on.

Though I have to admire the global unity of Muslims through thick and thin, through right and wrongs. I wish the rest of us could have that.

Dude, I'm not sticking up for any group. I'm perfectly willing to call out Muslims for their wrongdoing, they are just people and not above criticism. I find this insinuation to be insulting and I also feel personally insulted by this caricature. I feel as though it is a malicious attack based on arguably mistranslated slander, that is why I said something, not because Muslims are above doing wrong. Stop making facetious assumptions about me based on a damn username.

A more accurate translation would be "Put an end to Zionist and American war crimes", at least in my opinion, but you wouldn't dare respond to that. That is so clearly what is being said here, your inability to see that is a malicious attack. I'm still being cordial and respectful because I believe you don't know any better.

You surely got pinched enough to write two comments additionally. 🤭

Anyway,

Put an end to Zionist and American war crimes Do you speak Arabic and this is your own translation?

I consider your opinion that you think it is a mistranslation, but that does not refute the possibility that the translation in the video is wrong either, I have to verify somehow since I do not speak Arabic.

Palestinians have been caught numerous times declaring 'death of US/Israel' openly to warrant this assumption here to be likely true.

By your stating your username I was simply highlighting the fact that you are likely a Muslim who is sticking up for their brethren and seems like I was not wrong to assume that from your other comments.

Palestinians are not a threat to the US, the Likudniks who did 9/11 are.

Muslims didn't do 9/11 and Zionists showing Palestinians celebrating 9/11 were actually mourning the deaths of nine of their own killed at the hands of Israeli soldiers is disgusting.

Jewish terrorists did 9/11.

LMAO yeah definitely.

No, I don't speak for any Muslim besides myself. The only thing that triggered me is the de facto assumption that I must be doing it to save face for my group due to my ingroup bias. Otherwise, I have a pretty thick skin about stuff that doesn't vibe with me personally. I was sticking up for myself and my own beliefs, not for the beliefs of any group. I don't get along with many Muslims man. Like I said earlier, get two Muslims in a room together and they will barely agree on anything other than the importance of the Quran. A lot of the times, that ends up being the only thing I agree with the community on.

Fair enough, but it wasn't about you or Muslim creed in general. It was about these individuals purportedly saying 'death to America/Israel' which is plainly abhorrent. But the way you attempted to vociferously defend them by claiming variously they were mistranslation/'malicious translation' whatever that means, made it personal, isn't it?

This was clearly a personal issue for me since I typed the first character, I don't think that undermines what I'm trying to tell you here
