Yeah and don't even talk about their willingness to bravely stand up for what they believe in, and die for thier cause.

I was using those as two separate points of interest... Tossed the al qaeda in as a tagalong. They do that with bills in the government, get something passed that's attatched to a bigger issue. Just spreading the word.

How can you shoot women and children?











Easy. You don't lead them as much.

randomperson, prkbarreling is when you pass bills pertaining to local interests that you push through in an effort to get reelected.

Christmas tree bills are ones with small bill attached to larger ones.

get yer terminology right, same goes for you Sev, it seems this thread is full of misinformation.

[quote="Nukinblackmage";p="402749"]And you know some military people will still gladly bust a cap in any ass holding a gun that isn't a US Marine. Man, woman, woman holding a child, or child.

In a "It's you or it's them" situation, I'd kill a terrorist, regardless of it being a man, woman or child.


Just make sure to also kill the child the mother is holding, you wouldn't want to give the kid the opportunity to shoot you in the back now would you?[/quote]

are you nuts ? killing children doesn't really matter to you ? I prefer dying than killing human beings. I really can't understand your point of view... Thanks God people like you are not everywhere

"God's Army," a Burmese ethnic militia, was led by 12-year-old twins Johnny and Luther Htoo, who were believed by their followers to have magical powers.They took 700 hostages at a Thai hospital near the Burmese border. According to local legend, the twins came to lead the army when they stood their ground during a Burmese assault on their village at just nine years of age
What about now?

Yeah, not sure what you're getting at. Insert "god" instead of "allah", there, and tell me if it makes sense to you, because it does to me:

I think that is a little bit of an extreme Lorien. It's one thing to kill an innocent child. Something totally different to kill a child who is leading an army to kill you as well.

/me shrugs

Just my point of view on the matter...

I really hate to jump into this hornet's nest but...

Isn't Allah the proper noun used when talking about god and not a literal translation?

If I'm just an ignorant American idiot please enlighten me.
I'll put something here eventually...
