Comments on: Poll: A Split On Confronting Terrorism

Country Divided On Whether To Go After Terrorists In The Mideast

Rev, I assume you understand that in most muslim countries, it's not just a religion -- it's the law. Those with brains enough to ignore such passages are executed.

[ronniehm]

You know what they say about two wrongs.

They show love to their wives by beating them if they deny ***. SUMurtha

Since I have a few minutes, I'll share a few examples of exactly what I mean about there being little to no difference between the Koran and the Bible...

"If she go not as thou wouldest have her, cut her off from thy flesh, and give her a bill of divorce, and let her go." (Eccles. 25: 26)

"The ******** of a woman may be known in her haughty looks and eyelids. If thy daughter be shameless, keep her in straitly, lest she abuse herself through overmuch liberty." (Eccles. 26:9-10)

"A shameless woman shall be counted as a dog; but she that is shamefaced will fear the Lord." (Eccles.26:25)

"Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up." (Hosea 13:16)

"Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church." (I Corinthians 14:34-35)

Do you see the point yet? All religions are equally full of such examples, and the inherent contradictions between a "loving" and "vengeful" god. That is the nature of religion, and the reason we were given brains.

Oh right. Our presence in Iraq makes muslims want to kill other muslims. And I guess cops are the reason gang members shoot each other. Whatever. You're a flake. Let me know when muslims come out in force to protest a beheading, and I'll start feeling bad when we make a terrorist strip naked and walk around like a dog. You have to be a real moron to think the pope hates people based one a speech promoting non-violence. It seems like only yesterday you terrorist-sympathizers were quoting the guy's words on peace.

>>The pope quotes a 700-year-old line and churches burn and nuns are shot. When jihad-boy demanded we all convert to islam, did even one muslim bother to roll his eyes? You have a twisted concept of what hate is.

The pope knew exactly who he was quoting. He is an academic after all. ONE NUN DIED as a response, where a majority of Muslim organizations denounced her killing as an "evil" act that cannnot be justified as a reaction to the evil words of a "holy" man.

The real twisted version of hate is when you Ronnie, justify the KILLING, BUTCHERING, AND TORTURE OF INNOCENT IRAQIS and AFGHANS.

Now because of Bush's warmongering policies Iraq is in civil war where over 6,000 civilians are dying monthly; (2X World Trade Center deaths each month!) And then you have the audacity to wonder WHY THEY HATE US?

That's real hate!

[andy_f90]

>>Yeah, poor misunderstood Saddam. I mean he only invaded his next-door neighbors.

Shut up Ronnie.

If neocons really cared about Saddam's neighbors as they claim under the guise of being "humanitarians" all the while being the apologist for Israel;

then these neocons would have come to the aid of the smallest, most-flourishing Arab democracy in the region: Lebanon. But no they LET LEBANON DIE FROM AMERICAN SUPPLIED US CLUSTER BOMBS AND LASER GUIDED MISSILES!

So much for being concerned about the "well fare" of neighbors!

[ronniehm]

You left one out, jh.

"Seventy-six percent of respondents say Islamic fundamentalism is a real and growing threat to the United States." Yes

I wonder why that one didn't get a graph. Probably an oversight.

[ronniehm]

Yeah, poor misunderstood Saddam. I mean he only invaded his next-door neighbors. Honest, he would have stopped ... like Hitler stopped in Czechoslovakia.

[andy_f90]

That's why a majority of Americans see through Bush's lie of invading Iraq as a "WMD threat."

Remember the mushroom cloud scenario?

The same PR of fear is being waged againt Iran as trying to building a nuclear program thanks to the heavily pro-Israeli, Murdoch owned NYPost, FoxNews, and the "Sun" newspapers; not to mention Likud mouthpiece of Weekly Standard, National Review, and the New Republic.

Its sad a majority of Americans were duped by Bush's campaign of fear against Saddam's Iraq (remember he was Hitler?) and now some are being duped and scared ALL OVER AGAIN! (this time its a democratically elected leader, ex-Mayor of Tehran Pres. Ahmedinejad who is "hitler.")

God save our nation's treasury and her children from these fear-inducing thuggish low-lives called NEOCONs.
