User talk:Irsjad
Add topicHi Salam,
feel welcome here, I would like to request to you: before commenting, read something about me at my user page, so you know who you're dealing with. Might make things more realistic, and it might take aways some questions of you already!
cheers

p.s. If you have any question, then do sign it with your signature and timestamp (that is the second button on the edit page from the left), so I can find who you are and come back to you! I had some brilliant political student asking me a question on the former User talk page, who forgot to leave his details (name or name of the project he refered to, which sounded interesting), that makes it rather impossible to help! So.... don't forget!
My Person
[edit]For anything you want to comment to or about me personally, add it here, nice and bitchy stuff I am ok with it!
For serious comments about Islam I would like to redirect you to that site: Talk Islam as that's the proper place to comment. However, if you want to say something about stuff I added to pages on Islam you can put them here! Also if you belong to the Right Winged Extremists Xenophobic Neo Nazis and you want to bitch on my personal choice, go ahead. I would treat you like my granddad treated Nazi Germans in World War II did and like him carry some trophies of you. But I guess you should leave your id (wiki or real) here and would never do that.... so go ahead, I will delete your crap, as I clean my street from dog-crap. To all others, sorry....... feel welcome to comment here :-))
This means for me Human Geography contrary to Physical Geography, let alone Geology, which are both soil staring and digging studies. A Human Geographer looks how people screw up this world in several ways! Any questions about that, can be asked and added here!
the [[w:Netherlands|Netherlands]
That is my country of birth with which I have a love-hate relationship. I love it's perceived culture of liberalism (even more liberal than the USA) and tolerance, however at the same time I dispice it's xenophobic racism which is now even victimising me. Wasn't it for the fact that I can't be victimised, as I just ignore it! However the reality is, being a Muslim in the Netherlands can bring difficulties in getting or keeping a job or being active in politics. As for example, when I dealt with politics during the elections in 2002 and 2003, I received some death threats by nutcases who thought they could show up at my door and finish a career! Just because I was "one of them" but also a treator because I turned to [[w:Islam|Islam]! I choose for a tolerant Netherlands, as hard as I choose for the Netherlands over Holland.... see for an explanation the naming conventions of the Netherlands!
Other
[edit]Anything which you think can't be catched by above chapters, leave it here or create your own chapter here! In all cases don't forget to read my user page for an introduction on me! Because it makes lame comments without knowing who I am!
