Thinking people should be concerned that 1.2 billion brainwashed fanatics insist that the remaining 6.5 billion should follow their beliefs.

Failure by Nike to withdraw the shoes and abjectly apologize is likely to result in widespread riots enthusiastically promoted by clergy whose only goal is to extend the undemocratic rule of the religion of peace.

Yeah you may be right, although I haven't heard anything about that happening yet.

I was just wondering whether people getting upset about other people getting upset was ironic or not.

The rest of us object to the design of Islam. Could you muslims please recall it?

The irony here is you assuming you know what 99% of Muslims know or don't know about their own language, history and culture, when you have no idea, and then going on to spout your own flavour of ignorant BS. Considering Zionism was only started in the late 19th century, I don't see how Zionists had anything to do with the origins of Aramaic.

The entire concept of Zionism is directly related to the historicity of the Jews and Aramaic is as closely related to Hebrew as you can get.
Show me one single reference to the historical origins of the word Allah in any shape or form in all of Islamic teachings. They just don't teach this stuff - its blasphemous because Jews are essentially the enemies of Islam.

Frank, you're embarrassing yourself with your complete ignorance combined with your imaginary expertise. Tell me, please, how is it you are an expert on Islamic teachings, and where does your 'knowledge' come from?
For your information:

Historically, Aramaic was the language of the Arameans, a Semitic-speaking people of the region between the northern Levant and the northern Euphrates valley. By around 1000 BC, the Arameans had a string of kingdoms in what is now part of western Syria. Aramaic rose to prominence under the Neo-Assyrian Empire (911–605 BC), under whose influence Aramaic became a prestige language, and its use spread throughout most of Mesopotamiaand the Levant. At its height, variants of Aramaic were spoken all over in what is today Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, Palestine, Kuwait, Eastern Arabia, Northern Arabia, and to a lesser extent parts of southeast and south central Turkey, and parts of northwest Iran.[4] Aramaic was the language of Jesus,[5][6][7] who spoke the Galilean dialect during his public ministry, as well as the language of large sections of the biblical books of Danieland Ezra, and also one of the languages of the Talmud.

The Aramaic alphabet was widely adopted for other languages and is ancestral to the Hebrew, Syriac and Arabic alphabets.

Zionism has absolutely nothing to do with Aramaic whatsoever. Come on, enough of your Islamophobic BS, please...
And just by the way, Jews and Muslims lived together in peace in many places in the world for centuries.

Is the zionist movement related to the historical Jews or not?
Read the definition since you so good at wiki mining.
Besides its all semantics. Jews, Zionists its all the same to the muslims.

Again, why are there no references to Aramaic in Islamic history with regards to Arabic?

So over the silliness in this world
