Says the guy who tags himself AbdulSalam.... I guess he was an islamic jihadist too right? Did you even read the article, it's pure bullshit from a website that is very cleary anti-Muslim. Do some research on the writers and their beliefs. If anybody should be feared it's people who think like them and their audience.
Abdul Salem "soldier of peace" Not exactly an Islamic Jihadist. I would give him the locker next to Smith.
Hot damn the hatred is stanking up my computer screen. I'm happy to know there are more reasonable folk out there than the loud and hateful minority of us though. Always helps to remind myself of that.
Why would anyone in there right mind read the trash that magazine and author puts out? I'm offended that anyone would use this as a source in a political argument in the BS section let alone start a thread with it in the Jets section. You have an immigrant family that came to the US and has been highly successful integrating into our society and actually accomplishing the American dream and small minded men have to kick him to the curb because he has some pride in where he comes from and who he is. Some people should stick their heads back up their ass.
What's sickening is most of these people probably really feel that way. It's scary. Sure there are people on both sides of the coin as well but to post something so hateful about a kid that 2 days ago they didn't even know existed is disgusting. I feel bad for Aboushi because he is going to have to deal with these type of people for as long as he is in the NFL. I mean let's be real about Aboushi.... he was such an Islamic Jihadist that he went to a Catholic High School.... oops. Wonder why that was left out of the article?
Only the Jets could manage to simultaneously be the NFL's most Jewish team as well as the most anti-semitic.
He should have a press conference and either deny or confirm how he feels about radical muslim faith issues. The Jets should have done their homework. I don't think any religion is worth the paper it is written on , but the fundementalist Muslim faith promotes killing all non believers. He should just tell us what he believes. Then we base an opinion on it.
I hope he makes the team with flying colors and kicks ass. The only POS I saw was that biased, joke of an article and the hate that went with it.
Have you lost your mind? WTF is going on around here. I can't believe this POS article is still on the website. The article and the Thread is nothing but trolling.
Why? Sanchez is catholic, shoudl he have a press conference too? There is not one shred of evidence to even suggest that the guy is a fundamentalist muslim. He went toa catholic high school for fucks sake. He shouldn't say shit and if he believes that there should be a Palastinian State that is his God given right as an American.
People like to generalize to make themselves feel secure. Its easy, exhilarating even to fight a cartoon. Maybe its just in our DNA to do so, if its a threat we have the ability to look for the signs from past experience. hatred by association is a handy self defense mechanism for potential threats to return. Theres a saying "where theres smoke theres fire", and while yes there certainly exist evil muslims out there, the fear has gotten us to a point where we'll smell smoke where there really isn't. lol, maybe he was spying the school for his terrorist friends.. for some reason... some really militant reason, yeah!
As the OP, I agree with your thoughts on the thread...I wouldn't mind if it got canned due to the controversial nature of it. I also don't really want people to think (a) I agree with it, or (b) I look at that website. It's something that just popped up on facebook as a re-post from someone, and thought it slightly news-worthy and obviously Jets related.
I didn't mean to offend anyone by posting it. I apologize if that was the case. Whether it's news or an editorial, someone is publicly putting that negative press out there, and whether you agree or not, I still consider that to be something worth posting. I certainly wasn't asking you to agree with it, but the fact that this is out there (and being re-posted in many places outside of TGG), I think it was right to bring it to people's attention that this is out there. Besides, anyone that reads the article with half a brain should be able to pick out the horrendous journalism and realize the tremendous reaches it makes.
No need to apologize, you pretty much made your feelings known right at the beginning. Someone would have posted it eventually. Thankfully it wasn't that RuJfan guy.
