I am sorry, Janissary, but you seem to have a lack of pupose to what you wanted to say, did say, and what you were actually doing when you said them.

Basically, you were talked down. Xenophobia is the fear/hate of strange/foreign people/objects. You seem to be essentially biased against those to the west, and are unwilling to admit your fear/biasim/hate/disgust, therefore you opened this thread hoping to get some who would give you the replies you searched for. -.- Sad, sad, sad.

 

Before posting again, try to get all the information you need to back up what you actually think. People respect that a little more than your sad excuse of  'everyone looks, but everyone cannot see.' In actuality, it should have been, Everyone can look, but not everyone can see. Try to support your purpose, not argue others views. It gets you farther.

what is xenophobic?

i looked it up in thr dictionary and it says feeling a hostility to others. thats why i said i am not xenophonic because i dont feel any hatred to anyone. but if you want to see my aim just try to understand what i had written may reply to you. everything is in it.

but if you dont want to understand you cant. i m sorry

everyone looks but everyone cant see.



I think your response is unnecessarily hostile, especially considering that you said yourself that you're not sure of the meaning of "xenophobic."  While I know that English can be a barrier, you need to be as patient with it as I need to be.  Considering that you now have four different posters telling you the same thing, I think you should be the one reflecting on it.

as for the title, yes i wrote it intentionally because after the debates over the Muslim rows against the depiction of prophet Mohammed and arguments i didnt want to show this topic as a retaliation. i didnt want to show it so" yes we did that and you are doing so. you are more savage or so..". but whatever if i had written sth as a title it would be possible to be understood so. intead of this i tried to explain it. i meant yes, one can think which side is more savage but there is no such a stupid answer to such a question because these dont give us a genreal idea about societies. thats why as soon as i wrote title , i started to explain why i dont want to reply to the title and said we cannot generalize the events.
