Note what the savage at the bottom of the article says, "This is what young people can’t understand. Is the West against Muslims?" Yep. You got it Einstein, errr Abdullah.

"'To such people it is the duty to further jihad — to recruit people to an extremist cause,' said counterterrorist expert Charles Shoebridge."

This is exactly what I've been talking about for some time now-- a Muslim's higher allegiance to something other than their parent country. Are any of you seeing why it is time we round these people up and place them in internment camps/export them to Sudan/deny them entrance to Western countries? Untrustworthy, unreliable, and prone to violence against their own countrymen.

It's time to lance this boil on the a$$ of western civilization.

Interesting article, but I am a little skepticle about how many a "small group" is. A small group of protesters can easily be assembled by a terrorist group or anti-war campaign to draw attention.

Dont get me wrong, I dont totally dismiss the seriousness of the situation, but there are some disparities to look into first.

Who siad it wasn't a religous war?


Clearly the US is persecuting Muslim nations because they're easy targets. We'd never dream of invading a Christian nation.

Make no mistake, Smash, they see you as a Christian and would gladly kill you as such. While my thread title says religious warfare, the reality is it's only religious warfare for them. We still have people trying to understand them and coddle these bastards into loving us somehow. For us it's really more cultural warfare-- and a war we need to pull all the stops out on, prisoner abuses and all the introspection that accompanies it be damned.

Wow, I agree with totem. Although I think we're going about it all wrong. We really don't need to conquer a whole nation and **** even more people off. Armys are good for killing people and breaking stuff, that's about it. We don't need that sort of big flashy thing right now. What we need are small teams of highly trained special ops sorts to go in and hunt down the active terrorists.

However, I think this war isn't really about terrorism to our so called leaders, it's all about money, power, and revenge. Like I said, we need dedicated, highly trained people go and either capture these people, bring them here and give them a quick trial, and a much more merciful death than they deserve or to shoot them for resisting, it makes no difference to me. To go with that we're going to need a good intelligence service, not a bunch of bureaucrats who are more concerned with their jobs than innocent civillians. We also need different leaders that are more concernet for protecting and guiding out nation than lining their pockets and persecuting whomever they can get away with.

This is indeed a religeous war for them, and religious fanatics are the worse sort of people to pick a fight with. It may also be a religious war(among other motivations, he could just be saying that too, I trust the guy about as far as I can throw a house) for our esteemed presidesnt shrubya. I've read a few disturbing things about how he prostrates himself to pray and considers bringing democracy to the world (while he takes it away here) his god given mission. Bear in mind fanatics are the worse sort of people to be running things as well. As near as I can figure we're all pretty much screwed, it's just a matter of time.

Great point. In the first 20 words I read of you post Halfdan, this is what screamed in my head. But small, well trained tactical strikes really only work with extremely good intelligence. There is no way this country will EVER be that good with intelligence.

Better intelligence and the ability to send 250k troops to a country like Iraq, that's what will be the key. Of the 21 (?) Muslim countries, not one of them is a democracy from what I understand. They (directly or indirectly) harbor those "fanatics" that we should "deny them entrance to Western countries," and we should line them (the countries) up, one by one until those leaders understand that no matter what, they will fall.

Sure we will brew some serious hate, but the 250k standing army on foreign soil will ensure the swiftest of gov't changes.

BTW leave the UN completely out of it. They don't belong in such a war... they talk to much. I'm most definitely liberal btw.

Why would anyone think it was a religous war on our part? I wonder how many of those pamphlets were dropped on the ground in Iraq.

I heard from a guy that came down from a secret hash-smoking colony in the mountains of India that we were trying to build an oil pipeline from Saudi Arabia to China. We have made deals with Iran and Pakistan. So, all we needed was Afganistan and Iraq.

Interesting idea, eh?

Afganistan has it's own oil and we're allready building a pipeline there. And don't forget the Caspian sea.

Ask Totem about "The Great Game" he studied European History.

From the Prayforgeorge link:
For over two years, God-fearing Americans have gathered to lift up the man whom God has placed in the office of the Presidency (Romans 13:1 "Everyone must submit to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those that exist are instituted by God."-HCSB™)

Isn't God going to be upset that Bush kicked out the divinely appointed Saddam Hussian?

i really dislike bush its all about god. I could give a crap about god. I live life the way i want and dont need people talking about god this and that. Its all about control man if you think about it. That and taxes are insane so they can pay for the higher up to take vacations and get millions in bonuses. Being in goverment should be a free thing not a payed position.

It's almost no different then **** Extremism...

The people are fu[b][/b]cking brainwashed..... that's it.. we can't talk them out of it...

You may say it's different because they are paying allegiance to somthing greater than thier 'mother country'... but these peole really have no mother country... you have to fill in thta blank... it' the concept of that allegience other than Waht they actually pledge it to... ****'s actually were all about the Race more than the country of Germany it seems.....

IF millions of Christians lived in a large and industrialized ORGANIZED and unified Mulslim country.. it would only be a matter of time before Christians would be ethncally cleansed like the Jewish were.

The Religious aspect is only incidental...... It is Extremist views...... Being; views that make you insane and want to kill your fellow man... don't matter what for.. only that you would.

ALTHOUGH, I could see it as Good vs. Evil

I never said the Coptics had a roses 'n sunshine life -- I was pointing out the fact that they've been around since damn near the time of Christ in a region that's had a Muslim majority since the 8th century and haven't been cleansed yet. There's still anywhere from two to six million of them (depending on who you read).

You specifically state cleansed "like the Jews were". When Egypt is building concentration camps and massive furnaces for the Coptic population, you'll have a point. The situtation in Egypt is unfortunate, but doesn't even hold a candle to the Holocaust (or to Rwanda, Serbia, etc)

Edit: Changed last paragraph

Two, ****'s were about securing power by means of creating an evil force at work trying to destroy the world. The Jew. To a large degree, the fact that they killed so many of them was driven by a need to live up to the propaganda.

A comparison would be a modern nation demonizing a certain religous group as "fuc[/b]king brainwashed" and declaring war on their methodology. Of course, that woudln't happen today.

Or..like the Muslims have been repeadetly throughout history? I mean don't get me wrong, I understand the motivation for genocide. In the abstract I'm really pretty much all for people who belive they are members of a chosen race or religion or eye color or show size or fuc[b]
king WHATEVER being slaughtered en masse. In practice, of course, it seems a little more cruel. Christians aren't going to be ethnically cleansed any time soon.

The last "ethnic cleansing" of a religous group was when the MUSLIMS were killed en masse in Bosnia. By Christians, naturally.

In truth it really doesn't take much for people to kill thier fellow man. It's the organising principle of civilization. "Do what I say or I'll hit you with this rock" is the fundemental theorm of the entire political process. Facist, Dictatorial, Democratic, whatever. It certainly doesn't require any brainwashing.

I guess in my point of view the entire human race is brainwashed into having the need to dominate...

or maybe brainwashed to not fight said need.

Not to **** all over your brainwashing theory, but if one reaches the conclusion that the default state of human instinct is towards agression, and it would difficult not to reach that conclusion, then brainwashing would be required to change that default state.

That's why selfless non-violent people like Ghandi are exceptionaly rare, and thugs who will kill you for pocket change are found all around the world.

no no no, you're right.... It seems that peoples default state IS toward agression..... that would be man's natural instinct..

Then we could gear this toward Christianity and "Original Sin" and the Brainwashing of people to "Love thy Neighbor".
