The all purpose terrorism thread featuring plenty of allah akbar

[Skybird]

Taliban bomb slayer kills 69, intentionally targetting Christians.

German bishop Margot Käßmann, female, divorced, and caught and sentenced for driving drunk and blessed with neither a brain nor the desire to have gotten one, tells Germans on Easter Sunday that they "should meet terrorism with Christian love", for this would be a provocation.


She reminds me of a joke. It goes like this:

Hell has its annual open day, and the devil himself leads around a group of visitors soon to die and who have not yet decided whether they should book their residence for the afterlife in heaven or in hell. He leads them around, and the visitors are stunned: there is tabledance bars and classical ballet, museum and jazz jam sessions, green meadows to play Golf and sunny parks to run picnics, beautiful natural ressorts to camp in, and whatever the heart desires: it is there, all all the inhabitants' desires get fulfilled by magic immediately. The guests are enthusiastic about hell, and the devil says "This is the real hell, everyone appreciates being here, its always like this, no hooks, no traps, you must love it, so enjoy your stay!" - Then they pass by a somewhat forsaken road leading into a darkness, its cold and the wind is howling, rain clouds everywhere, its desolate, and and from the distant shadows, where grey fog is hanging in the air, they hear heart-breaking crying and yellings of pain, and the atmosphere of despair around is so thick that you could take a knife and literally cut slices out of it. A visitor from the guided tour, slightly irritated, asks the devil "What is this a place?" And the devil looks down the alley, shrugs his shoulders and says: "Oh, that? That'S nothing, just the reserved corner for the Christians, we do not know why but they prefer it their way."

You spelled "Korsakoff-Syndrome" wrong Skybird.

The suspected third terrorist airport bomber has been released due to 'lack of evidence'.

A man known as Faycal C, the only person arrested and charged with involvement in the Brussels attacks, has been released for lack of evidence.
Belgian media have given the man's full name as Faycal Cheffou.

I would have at least publicly thanked ol' Faycal for his cooperation with the investigation when I released him.

After this terror attack in Pakistan I've start wondering if these Radical Muslim are not doing everything they can to start a religious war between Muslims and Christians.

I'm afraid they may succeed with this. We have radical on our own side who keep on saying "we are at war with Islam"

Well, we got an edge over them anyway



And a gazillion more inventions created to help Europeans slaughter themselves on an industrial scale.

Is the victim of an aggressor an aggressor himself just because the viuxctim declares that his attacker staged an aggression against him? Is the victim of a rapist the same like the rapist? Is a sober observer of Muslim terrorism, counting the sober number of terror victims stockpiling up in the name of Islam, of Christianity, of Buddhist faith, a radical himself when he concludes that Islam is at war with the rest of mankind and that it does not compare in scale, in no way, to terror done in the name of Buddha, Christ?

I'm really tired of this cynical and underhanded argument that if you label your attacker an attacker, you are not better than him, or if you fight fire with fire, you are not better than the perpetrator, or if you point out the ideological basis in a terrorist's motivation you are declared an XYZ-phobe yourself or a hawk or an intolerant and discriminating racist. To me, there is a crystal clear differenc ebetween attacker and defender, perpetrator and victinm, and I do not accept the two to be treated the same.

What this habit of always relativiosing Musalim terrorism expresses, is this: self-hate by Westerners, and the desire of always accuse the West. Many people have been taught to feel a deep-rooting disgust for their own cultural, historically grown identity, or better that of the clture they have grown up in, and it leads them to self-denial, and self-destruction. The West is eternally bad, and the foreign - no matter which foreign - is good already just because it is not the West.

Islam never was a tolerant, multicultural affair, or ideology, it was designed to excuse endless attempts to overthrow the others and to make them submit. Submission is what Muhammad aimed at and wanted, not coexistence. Ruling alone over evertyhing, that is what Islam is about. No peace as long as there is something left that is not Islam's - that is the ultimate goal. Peace by wiping out everybody not submitting and obeying to Islam.

That is what the scripture is and what Muhammad was about, and nothing else. Muhammad was no sentimental pacifist, no early Ghandi - he was a warlord, a desert mandit and murderer nd bringer of war, he stole, he plundere,d he slaughtered and raped. I do not care the desperate brain gymnastics of this or that "Muslim" sect trying to paint it nicely in an attempt to not needing to admit that it is following a brutal, totalitarian blueprint designed to enslave all mankind - no matter how long it takes. Siuch sects may be anything, but they are neither honest, nor are the Muslim. Period.

Do not want to see something in Islam, something you hope for, or that you wish to see in it so that you must not accept confronting it. Just open your eyes, and see what it is.

Do not want to see this or that in there. Just see the thing for what it is.

You should feel horror then.

Ah, the old question, who shot first? Han or Greedo?

More like, why should Han be affraid of Greedo, even if Greedo has a 1:20 numerical advantage, Han has a blaster that can kill 30 000 Guidos at once

Have read Skybirds answer, don't know how I should reply- I refuse to believe every=100 % of the Muslim in the world hate us=Christians and other religion.

His answer also made me remember a survey some month ago or so, here in Denmark

They asked a few thousand Muslim about the Danish legislation.


A Majority of the Muslim wanted some or all of Sharia included in the Danish legislation. Only a little percentage was OK with Danish legislation and didn't see it necessary to implement Sharia into Danish law.

There's talk of replacing everything that has been destroyed but I'm wondering where the money will come from and if anything other than the original 'items/buildings' hold as much awe?

[Oberon]

Honestly, leave it as it is, what's left will speak for what it is, and what is missing will speak of another period of history, a more modern period but one that should never be forgotten.
