Comment We have ISIS because of the prophet Muhammad (Score 1) 533

ISIS behaves exactly as Muhammad did, and exactly as Muhammad instructed his followers to behave.

If you don't know that, then you don't know the history of Islam, or the teachings of Islam.

ISIS was inevitable.

Time for the west to pull it's head out of it's ass and see Islam for it is.

Very different situation.

There is no emperor that sign a peace treaty, and have everybody lay down arms.

Also, in WWII we did not have millions of Nazis living in our neighborhoods.

Also, in WWII we were not fighting a war of insurrection against religious loons who have been doing this stuff for 1500 years.

Submission + - ISIS militant 'Jihadi John' believed to be a computer programmer from London (mashable.com) 1

walterbyrd writes: The Islamic State militant known as "Jihadi John," who has appeared in several videos depicting the beheadings of Western hostages, is a British man from West London.

His name is Mohammed Emwazi, according to Washington Post and Guardian reports. He was known to British security services, which chose not to disclose his name earlier for operational reasons.

Emwazi graduated from college with a degree in computer programming, according to friends who spoke to the Washington Post. He was a quiet man in his mid-20s who was raised in a middle-class part of London, the paper reports.

walterbyrd writes: The H-1B visa program is not really about finding scarce talents to fill crucial jobs, but about creating a young, cheap, and indentured labor force. Matloff and other experts say Indian outsourcing firms such as Tata and Infosys aren't the villains of the H-1B saga, but the scapegoats. The parties driving demand for this mess of a program are the Googles, Intels, Microsofts and SoCal Edisons, who reap all the benefits.

Tell the Boston bombing victims that nothing like this has happened, or the victims at Fort Hood. This stuff happens in Europe all the time.

Some Muslim clergy talks some crazy into some such attack. Then the media, and the politicians, fall all over themselves to tell the public that the attack has nothing to do with Islam. Then the big story will be that Muslims fear a backlash - as if the Muslims are the victims, and not the aggressors.

We need to stop the PC bullshit. Pull our heads out of our asses, and see Islam for what it is.

To terrorize, an extreme form of intimidation.

Remember "Apocalypse Now" : "Horror and moral terror are your friends. If they are not, then they are enemies to be feared."

The idea is to make people afraid of ever offending Islam. To be afraid of getting on an airplane, or shopping at the mall, or drawing a carton, or expressing an opinion. After a while, it because easier to submit to Islam than to live in constant fear.

And it works. It works like all hell. There are 57 Muslim nations, practically all taken by force. There are about 1.5 billion Muslims. No other ideology has grown so fast.
