Will America ever fall in love with muslims the same way they did with the Japanese?

Do you have a point here at all? If my best friend robbed my house, he wouldn't be my best friend anymore. And?

My point is about the only salient point made here. The OP is saying Americans don't resent pearl harbor anymore. you guys came in here with a ton of superficial reasons, except the real reason, that the conflict is over. Hell in the 80s anti-japanese sentiment was on the rise again as americans were panicking about their economic prowess

but the premise of the question is what happened after the conflict is over, all you are doing is restating the premise

and in the 80's americans were loving their japanese cars and electronics so that just adds to question

The "superficial" reasons we cited are examples of Japanese cultural and technological innovations that has captured the psyche of Americans and ingratiated them to us.

The fact that Americans don't hate them anymore when WWII ended in the 40's and there hasn't been military conflict with them since goes without saying.

We wouldn't like them if they were still doing Pearl Harbor's? Really, no shyt? :stopitslime: You act like people are arguing that we wouldn't have antipathy toward them if we were still at war.

I don't think we can predict that based on arbitrary japanese cultural output these days. Nobody in 1940 knew the japanese were going to become a fashion capital and there'd be a bunch of high end sushi restaurants in new york

I guess if we go into the predictive modality people are still off by a mile in this thread. Like I said I don't think anti-muslim sentiment really is that deep rooted in the US that it'd survive well after the mideast issues are resolved. This nonsense about vaginal tightness etc. trivial and shows more about the posters than about the future of US-Muslim relations.

Like I said in my first post both internally and externally more groups have borne the brunt of US oppression, hatred and aggression than Muslims (internally african americans and asians, and externally asians by far with south americans as a runner up)

We did drop a few atomic bombs on them. That might have something to do with. We feel a little guilty:ld:

i wasnt trying to answer the question, im just explaining that the premise of the question is post conflict

and you piped up and said the only reason for the "love" is because its post conflict

but everybody understood the premise of the question is post conflict, except you

the us is not post conflict vis a vis the muslim world, the poster was trying to hypothesize that if in the future there was some sort of peace between the us and muslims would americans fall in love with muslim culture

capish?

yea but dont these things result from sharia law? am i wrong about this?

Nah see sharia law by our western standards is NOT pro womans rights but its actually a HUGE step forward compared to the shiit that actually happens

I wish these Muslim countries actually followed Sharia

As for the topic this shiit is fluid and subject to change, remember in the 80s the Americans were callin the Afghan mujahdeen freedom fighters and the equivalent to Americas fore fathers.

The israeli palestinian issue is the single biggest obstacle to greater islamic-american relations tho

America isn't at war with Muslims(Islam).



I feel like educated Americans have been really trying to understand Islam, and the Middle East since around 2000 possibly before to a lesser extent in the 70's/80's due to terrorism, Israel/Palestine, Saudi Arabia, interest in Islam, Pakistan, Afghanistan etc.

What you could say is "Will America ever fall in love with Afghanistan the same way they did with Japan?".

With that said following the official narrative Afghanistan didn't attack us as a state it was "Al Qaeda".


People don't "hate" Afghanistan if anything they feel sorry for the people living there or are indifferent.

I almost died in a Carrera and I don't hold Afghanistan responsible.

this is bs, dont confuse individuals with the overall flow of societies, america is definitely at war with muslims, western europe and the islamic world have been in a cold war and active wars for the past 500 years since Constantinople got its buildings crushed and america has continued that tradition on the side of western europe
