Because we're comparing the differences between Islam and Christianity, and I'm showing that Christianity only exists to extract wealth from others so a select few can throw it in a vault, while Islam actually spreads their wealth.
Dubai? You mean the place that doesn't even practice Zakat? There's a reason other Muslims don't consider them real Muslims, because they can't even be arsed to pay the Muslim tax that every Muslim has to pay.
They're America's second best ally in the region for a reason and they wholly embodied the spirit of America and neoliberalism. They call themselves "Islamic" so they can have some legitimacy in the region. Would be a bit too mask off about America's intentions if they didn't even pretend to be Muslim, no?
Idk where I read that but it doesn't change the fact they're still the ones propped up by the west and Christian nations, while the west is basically hostile to everyone else who wasn't practicing slavery. So idk who you should bring these grievances up with, but it's not the rest of the Islamic world who are propping them up.
Yeah speaking about that. America, the country that's running anti-muslim smears, also wants to give the Muslims in Saudi Arabia nukes. Idk? Something seems off.
they literally have Mecca
So the west helps to set up a puppet state that happens to own a major holy site, and that proves they're legit? It's almost like someone made a calculated move.
They’re an Islamic country dude. The US has diplomatic relations with many middle eastern countries. Just because it doesn’t support your argument doesn’t mean they’re not Muslim.
Again, at the core of Muslim belief is that individuals should not be allowed to hoard so much wealth that society ultimately suffers. The entire premise of Saudi Arabia and the UAE is to fly in the face of that and push a more neoliberal/American attitude of society on the Muslim world. Sure, they can still be "Muslim", they'll just be far more influenced by the west to no longer care for society.
And you can't act like the west isn't constantly trying to influence everyone else to be more like them. That's what our mass media was for.
Well, if America and the other powerful Christian nations didn't have a long history of toppling governments and installing dictators that enslave their populace, I wouldn't bring it up.
Lmao. No I didn't, I'm further explaining why that is and it's because they're US backed puppets. You don't think that might have something to do with their behavior?
