Oh, Those Classy, Peace-Loving Muslims.....

....are proving they are, truly, all-inclusive. Sad part is I'm not shocked nor suprised at this development.

Pakistan: Taliban Buying Children For Suicide Attacks

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (CNN) -- A top Taliban leader in Pakistan is buying and selling children for suicide bombings, Pakistani and U.S. officials said. Children are shown at a training camp in this video footage shot by the Taliban.

Taliban leader Baitullah Mehsud has been increasingly using the children in attacks, the officials said. A video released by Pakistan's military shows the children training for the task. In the video of a training camp, children can be seen killing and going through exercises.

Pakistan is a hell hole of filth and ignorance. My family lived in Karachi and Quetta back in the late fifties. My dad was the lone appointee from the U.S. Army to the Pakistan military Staff College, there were appointees from Australia, United Kingdom, and France also. We lived in armed compounds because of an insurgency in the region, then called the "Pathans."

People were being butchered daily even then.

People squatted in the streets to relieve themselves, right next to people cooking japattis (flat bread).

I have an extensive 35mm slide collection from the time we spent there.

Pakistan is a place to be contained, if possible, and stay the hell out of.

Let's be fair here the Muslim culture, as a whole, is peace loving. It is the extremists that are not, but they make the name for their religion because they are the most out there.

It is much like most Christians, but the extremist TV evangelicals and the nuts that do stupid shit that give the religion a bad name.

True. Same goes for every group. Extremists get the spot light and sully the name. :coffee:

Nice try to put them in our world guys, but it just ain't so. Unless you are a Muslim, you are not to be considered by a Muslim to be a human being. There is no crime or shame to steal from, assault, rape, or kill a non Muslim in their eyes. That's a fact boys, and it must be extremely difficult for Americans to understand that basic principle because we seem to fall into that stupid trap time and again.

Complete bull shit.

I've worked for Muslim's in the past, and there are a lot of them at UNI and they are some of the nicest, most caring, genuine people I've ever met. They condemn the actions of the extremists at every chance they get.

Agree. And it surprises me that alot of Americans (no offense to anyone intended) don't mind being an apologist for the religion & culture considering our past. At one time, blacks were classified in a similar manner and we (educated reasonable folks) seem to have no problem heaping scorn upon the purveyors of those sentiments today. It's not just a cultural difference IMO.....

You would think, by the way the media talks about the muslim world that all they want to do is kill American's. That is true for the extremists side of the religion. Sadly that is the side that has corrupted the government and gets all the attention. That is not true of the religion however.

There is truth in what Wedgie says. The Muslims that you have met at UNI are just a slice of the pie and those fortunate enough to get away from their homelands to pursue an education. Some are grateful for the opportunity and appreciate what the West has to offer, others are saying what they need to in order to get along.

There are schools of thought within the Muslim world that believe as Wedgie describes and to base your understanding of the religion and the people solely on the Muslims you have met in school is a little naive. You can't exactly compare Christianity to Islam today. Islam today has more in common with Christianity from centuries ago with intolerance fighting reform. It is a shame because Islam preserved much of the West's culture and learning through the Dark Ages. Hopefully, Islam is able to survive these dark ages.

There are a number of good books on the subject of Islam. If you're interested, I'll see if I can remember some of the ones that I have read. Soul Man and D1B might have recommendations as well.
Being wrong about a topic is called post partisanism - kalm

MAQA - putting the Q into qrazy qanon qult qonspiracy theories since 2015.

It will probably be difficult for MAQA yahoos to overcome the Qult programming but they should give being rational & reasonable a try.

In the most general sense: Organized Religions are dangerous - anything with an agenda that is well organized and seen as divinely inspired is trouble... who knew God was so angry..?

In the case of traditional Islam the world is seen as a battle field of good vs. evil...

To me, a muslim extremist is one who is willing to resort to terrorism to kill us infidels.
Your typical muslim would prefer to kill us in more conventional ways.

While there are no doubt some peaceful muslims, I don't consider Islam to be a peace loving religion.

Bullshit, how bout the tens of millions of christian fuckheads (like you) who voted for Bush, not once, but twice. Or the tens of millions of shitheads who financially support the TV evangelists you speak of.

Or the billions of catholics who through their silence are co-conspirators in active campaigns of bigotry against gays, horrendous "family planning" crusades in the third world, and industrial-scale molestation of young boys and infants.

Hey crazy fuck, for as smart as you claim to be you really are the dumbest fuck around.


I didn't vote for Bush, you fucking dip shit!


I'm not a Christian fuck head, I'm barely Christian at this point in my life. I have a faith, but that is about it. Like usual you think you know a bunch of shit about a subject you don't so you throw out a bunch of ignorant bull shit. The evangelicals do not speak for the whole of the Christian faith, in fact, they speak for very few of the Christians. They have their cult followings that support them, the every day average joe Christian does not support them.


Catholics are crazy as fuck, everyone knows that. They are stuck in 1500.



D1B someone seriously has to call your stupid ass out. You really have nothing to offer any conversation you get into. All you do is spout liberal bull shit, anti-religion bull shit, and shit that just doesn't make any fucking sense. You really seriously need some fucking help. I don't give a shit if this is just a message board act that you fucking put on, if you get jollies from being a fucking tool bag to people you have never met, that are half your fucking age you old fucking bastard, you need some fucking help.



BOO HOO MY NAME IS DOUCHEFUCK MY DADDY MADE ME GO TO CHURCH AND NOW I HATE RELIGION!


Grow the fuck up you piece of shit
