ISIS attack in Brussels

[nolhtairt 0]

No surprise this came 4 days after a Paris attack suspect was captured in Brussels. I expect a ramp-up of bombings and raids on ISIS in response.

My guess is that they knew he would talk. So they struck before they could be rounded up.

Thought the same thing, even given the timing, it seems in response to actions based upon info he was already giving them.

Have you noticed that every nation that fails to keep control of firearms among the population gets repaid with destruction and body count? Body counts far in excess of any ever managed by any terrorist group that has ever existed?

So if you are for the Muslims killing in terrorist stacks as a byproduct of being PC, AND in that same statement, label anyone that doesn't are with you WRT the refugees as a cowardly bigot.

Paint with a wide brush much?

Just curious - is "cowardly bigot" a personal attack - or do mods get a free pass on the whole PA thing?

Only if you're making the assumption I believe Ron wrote the words and hid behind them. Obviously a good Christian wouldn't do that. I'm simply responding to the "unknown" author.

It's only a PA if "unknown" is a person who makes a complaint.

Meh....It just goes with the high salary, stock options, and all the other mod benefits. I hear they have quite a generous package.

The Shadow

BTW, 'Mein Kampf' was illegal when I lived in Germany, since it was considered unprotected hate speech, and those who sought to follow its teachings were ostracized.

Since 'Mein Kampf' is a study in sweetness and light compared to the Koran, it would make sense to treat it an its adherents similarly.

Since the Profit Muhammad (may he rot in hell) was an unabashedly murderous perverted psychopath, the Suras are not open to much in the way of interpretation. It's like saying Jeffrey Dahmer may have killed and eaten young men, but that wasn't what he really meant when he spoke about it.

Bullshit. Muhammad was a truly evil human being, a sexual predator who was vicious as the day is long, every much as Jeffrey Dahmer was a necropheliac cannibal. If anything, Jeffrey Dahmer had more to recommend him.

If anyone was to form a cult that revered Jeffrey Dahmer, the only response could be "dude, you are beyond fucked up," yet somehow we are supposed to 'respect' people who follow someone who makes Jeffrey Dahmer look like a Boy Scout.

Religion of peace? Read the fucking book. Most of it is about subjugating anyone who is not totally on board with whatever Muhammad said, and by the time you get to Sura 9 the tone is screw it, kill anyone who strays at all. This is, of course, not the slightest bit metaphorical.

The old story comes to mind of the person who nursed a snake back from near-death, only to be surprised to be bitten by it. "Hey, you knew I was a snake, didn't you?"

I have known Socialists/Communists who had not read The Communist Manifesto or any of the other works of Marx, Lenin et al. (I have); they just cherry picked what they thought were the key points.

Similarly, I have known devout Christians who had not read any translation of the Hebrew and Christian scriptures in their entirety (I have), but took all of it as The Truth (tm).

Similarly, many Muslims do not speak or read Arabic, and know the Koran only by liturgical rote, and others have never taken the time to wade through it (it's a dreadful read). Thus, when they say "it's a religion of peace," as far as they know, it is.

It turns out that the adherents who rape and slaughter are following the Muslim writings line and verse. Those who do not are those who have not picked up on the instruction to do so in no uncertain terms.

Since the game plan to get the hot and cold running virgins (virgins are overrated) is to slaughter as many innocents as possible in the process, the idea that the only good Muslim is a dead one rings false. There is nothing good about the assholes who victimized Brussels, Paris or much of anyone else in the process of becoming dead.

I do not recommend responding to Muslims in kind, since is is like wrestling with a pig. What I would like to see is to have Islam treated like the KKK. If a Grand Mufti and a Grand Dragon got equal respect, it would be an improvement. If wearing a burqua and wearing a white hood were seen as equivalent, that would be a start.

You can be a Klansman or a Muslim, but please keep it to yourself.

You know I really get pissed off with closed minded and biggoted people. I've got two young Muslims on my team at work both with PHDs in engineering and one is from Iraq and the other Iran. They were discussing how bad the attacks were and what makes people do something so horrific.

It's ironic how similar Western fundamentalists are, it's just they celebrate predator drones hitting the 'towel heads'. Perhaps a little introspection on what your God said to old George Bush when 'he' told him to bring body count and destruction to the Muslims

I'm no fan of religions in general, and of the faiths called "Abrahamic" I dislike Islam the most. For all the reasons you give.

At 3 Billion adherents, I'd say it's imperative that the world find a way of coping with them. It's not like they are a sect that is going away.

I don't care what the Prophet taught, or what the Koran says. I care only what the people are doing. The terrorism is not coming from the refugees. The refugees are the victims of the extremists.

Islam is at war with itself. Far more than it is with the west. It is struggling between the 5th century view and the modern view. I have no answer on how to end this nightmare. But blaming the refugees is not helpful.

Personally, I'd be happy to see the west attack and destroy both Mecca and Medina. Turn them into smoking piles of radioactive ash. Maybe Putin can come across from the East.

I simply see very little difference between Ron's mindset and that of extreme Muslims. Neither are acceptable in my opinion.

I don't recall much American outrage over Catholics when the IRA was regularly bombing London, Birmingham, Manchester, and other cities in the UK and producing a much higher body count. In fact, the American response was mostly to send guns and money to the terrorists.
