But let me say this news is still disgusting. Anyway i got a question for you: what do you think about all those people beheading other innocent people (journalists, civils, members from the Red Cross, etc.. fuck it! Even soldiers.. it's the same! innocents or not!) praising and thanking Allah?. Everytime they behead someone, we gotta see all those stupid things about the Coran and Allah. Do you support that? Do you really believe Allah has something to do with it? What do you think about that situation? Do you respect them people? It's a real question. I did it to the other muslims in the forum before you. I wanna read your opinion about that. I know your opinion about US soldiers and Bush, what about "Jihad"?

No, I don't support that. I don't support terrorism in any way. I don't support the beheadings; I think they're cruel and disgusting. I don't respect terrorists.
All I said is that the root of this problem is the U.S. foreign policy after World War II. I don't see how me being anti-U.S. foreign policy makes me pro-terrorism. You people are on some Bush "You're either with us or against us bullshit". Fuck that.
The only thing is, when I look at situations, I try to see both sides of things. I don't just say "well, we're killing people, but it's government sponsored, so it's okay; they're killing people without the license to kill, so they must be the evil ones."
These people don't hate "our freedom". You want to know what they do hate? They hate:
- us helping bring corrupt leaders to power
- us supporting these corrupt leaders (in some cases, while their human rights are abused)
- us setting up puppet governments so we have an economic benefit at their cost (we get resources from Middle Eastern as well as other 3rd world countries around the world at prices way below the actual value, and the globalizing also includes us selling to them at staggering prices)
By the way, where were most of the 9/11 terrorists from? Saudi Arabia.
Does Saudi Arabia abuse human rights? Yes.
Do we give a shit? NO.
Why? What the fuck is up with our foreign policy? Now do you see why they hate us. I don't blame them. I don't support their acts, but I don't blame them.

Man i was talking about Allah. It's a question related to you being a mulsim. How do you feel when you see those people killing in the name of Allah? I didnt say you support terrorism. It was a different question.
King Tech Quadafi:
Those people are using religion and Gods name for their own political objectives, and just because Mohamed Doe wants to invoke ALlahs names every time he uses violence, doesnt mean inherently every Muslim around the world shares solidarity

How do I feel? The fact that they wrongfully kill in the name of Allah doesn't affect my feelings. Why would it? I mean yeah, I think it's wrong, but other than that, it's their sin and doesn't affect me.
By the way, you keep throwing around the word Allah as if it's some other god or something. Allah is just the Arabic word for God. For example, someone that speaks Spanish would refer to God as "Dios", but that doesn't mean it's a different god. It's the same God that Jews and Christians believe in. People are so ignorant these days.

Exactly. And doesnt the fact that it's the "same" God make it even dumber? Thanx for your replies tho'.
