- jiofj 3y agoA bomb in an Air India plane done by Sikh can hardly be called a terrorist attack in Canada.
- pseudo0 3y agoThe bomb was planted on the plane in Canada, the attack was planned in Canada, the terrorists were Sikh Canadians, and the attack killed 268 Canadian citizens...

- jiofj 3y agoI see. I think our disagreement comes from the fact I don't think "Sikh Canadians" exist. There are Sikhs in Canada, and they planted a bomb in Canada, but the location was incidental, in my opinion.
- pseudo0 3y agoUnfortunately they possessed Canadian citizenship, making them Canada's problem. That's the unfortunate reality of having one of the world's most lax immigration systems and an embarrassingly low bar for citizenship.

- pseudo0 3y agoNo, but it would be similarly ridiculous if someone described Muslims as "some of the most peace loving people on planet earth" like the post above.
- JohnMakin 3y agoNo it wouldn't. Muslims != radical terrorism. It'd be like saying Timothy Mcveigh represents christian ideals.
- pseudo0 3y agoTrying to stereotype a group of millions or billions of people as "some of the most peace loving people on planet earth" is ridiculous. That was my point. I would not characterize Christians that way either.
- HDThoreaun 3y agoislam is an inherently violent ideology. The Quran commands followers to murder innocent people for sodomy or leaving the religion. Martyrdom is an important concept. Sikh doctrine does not call for murdering people. For what it's worth christianity is also an inherently violent ideology, although the new testament eschews that a bit. Obviously not all muslims strictly follow the ideology.
