The other side of Islam

One of the good parts of Skypeland is the chance to have some people tell the inside story on various issues. One young Muslim told us how in his Muslim country, prostitution was legal, bars were everywhere, and the women who wear hijab are topless on the beaches. He said the reason there are so many porno casts in Skype run by Arabs is because there is so much sex in Arab countries, more than in any Western country, so it is just natural.

He tried to explain why Muslims are involved in suicide bombing. It did not make much sense, to be honest. Someone accused him of being paid for talking in this way. I couldn't understand what they were talking about. When I asked them, they would not explain.

Then they started debating whether Bin Laden was a real person or not. Ah, I see...

And the longer you listen, the dumber you get...

These are not my facts. Just stuff that I heard in Skypeland. If you want to argue, you have to find the source of the information; the Muslim gentleman in Skypeland that is giving this account. By the way, I did verify this information. There are plenty of prostitutes in Morocco for example, and Tunisia. And alcohol smuggling is a HUGE business in Saudi Arabia. So forbidden or not...well...maybe you should get YOUR facts straight. Bob in MD
