"Ana raicha Al Qaeda" is colloquial for "I''m going to the toilet". A very common and widespread use of the word "Al-Qaeda" in different Arab countries in the public language is for the toilet bowl. This name comes from the Arabic verb "Qa''ada" which mean "to sit", pertinently, on the "Toilet Bowl". In most Arabs homes there are two kinds of toilets: "Al-Qaeda" also called the "Hamam Franji" or foreign toilet, and "Hamam Arabi" or "Arab toilet" which is a hole in the ground. Lest we forget it, the potty used by small children is called "Ma Qa''adia" or "Little Qaeda".
So, if you were forming a terrorist group, would you call yourself, "The Toilet"?

WHen our resident PEST Rick posted that muslim journey to hope url, I find two things out about it in my research;

1)They hide behind a disposable, and I night add FREE- HOTMAIL.com email address for the contact.

I''ll leave it up to the readers to decide how legit and ''above board'' this outfit is. My guess is they are hiding their true identity because its a catholic church FRONT designed to lure idiots into thinking waves of devout muslims suddenly converted from one to another false belief system.

Someone needs to take this soldier aside and explain to him that shooting at broken appliances, jugs of water or abandoned cars is way more exciting. I guess his copy of the Quran is indeed holier than thou''s.

Jesus is the way, the TRUTH and the LIFE!!!!! His ministry is based on LOVE.

The Quran is of Satan Himself! Its ministry is based on hatred and Murder!!!

"you can shoot the Qran but just make sure you don''''''''t show a boob in the superbowl because thats where freedom of speech ends in america. "

That is just because Americans are afraid of boob, esp hairy ones. In time the US will get over our fear of nudity.

It''s not about fear. It''s about common decency and civility. Or is that too much like "communism"? :-S

This Soldier was totally out of line doing this. Respect for a civilizations religious beliefs, just as we expect for our own personal religious beliefs. This just adds fuel to the fire.

I do not know what your religious convictions are, but if this had been a bible would you be upset that he used it for target practice ? I not a christain but i find it to be a wrong decision on his part to disrespect any religion like that. Maybe it is because i feel we are held to a higher standard than the enemy. When they burn one of our flags i get enraged. I think we willget more respect when we also show respect.
