The LAW26....bro i know all of that. But this is not the point of this thread and certainly NOT what i'm arguing. Forget nation states, arabs and chechens......the question was who was the bigger evil?
Mowhawk...I think theLaw26 answered your question. Because Western Colonizers have divided the Islamic Nation into nation-states, every1 is looking out for their best interest. Because Palestine is located in the middle east and arabs have always had big influence in the Muslim world, the palestinian issue gets heard loudest. I do agree with your point that much attention is not paid to the chechen plight for many reasons the law26 and i went over but the west is a much bigger evil than Russia. so what you need NOT do is lump these two issues together. They each deserve separate and lengthy discussions. So pick which u want to talk about
1)West's evil versus Russian evil
2) Palestinian issue versus Chechen issues...
The first one is a no-brainer. What the west has done the muslim nation since colonial till now can't compared to what Russia has done to the chechen people.
