More about the Yule Goat
unlike christianity, right? LOL
All religions have plenty to be ashamed of, but you can save your christian jabs for a more appropriate time. Is your point that this mass slaughter is justified in some way because of the Spanish Inquisition?
America is supposed to a land of freedom of religion. Hasan should have been free to practice his religion in peace. Obviously, the bigots in the military don't believe in freedom of religion. Sadly, America doesn't practice what is supposed to be one of its principles. Islam is just another religion regardless of what barbaric practices you attribute to that religion. Buddhism is a religion of pascifism, yet there are violent Buddhists too.
Religions are creations of men. You can talk all you want about "us" and "them" religions, but the fault lies in human nature or rather our lizard brain stems rather than any religion, race or philosophy. All these are efforts to rise above that basic savage human nature.
Maybe for this time frame, Muslims are worse than American Christians. Yet, I see many of same fundamental flaws also couched in Fundamentalist Christian theology ... by lizard brained Christians.
Give it a rest. It wasn't his Muslim religion that pushed Hasan to commit these horrific crimes. Rather it was his lizard brain stem reacting the lizard brain stem of others around him. We are all human beings, brothers and sisters with the same flaws and same strengths. Don't blame the man's religion. It was incidental except that it was the point on which he was constantly harrassed and abused.
What I think is odd is your need to worship him and the muslim religion while somehow blaming christianity and the murder victims. How in the fuck do you know the murder victims tormented him?
Several centuries ago christians behaved with as much barbarism as today's fundamentalist muslim factions do. Christians have grown up a little just as the muslims will. They are at different points in their evolution. And I wasn't thinking too much about the Spanish Inquisition but rather about people like Eric Rudolph and Fred Phelps.
All religions have their eccentrics.
This man sounds like someone who simply snapped. Given the strain on our military I can understand that. It's no accident that the suicide rates in the military now surpass those in the civilian population. This man directed his rage outward rather than inward.The whole thing is a tragedy, for all concerned.
This is the second high profile mass murder, fratricide by a muslim service member. In understanding the crime, we must understand the self-identity of the killer.
The fact that the military is involved in a war is irrelevant. Many muslims have had exemplary service just as many asians and germans served in wars involving their historical ethnic groups. This military had better do a better job of rooting nutcases out... even if they are muslims.
Parasites all
The US Government paid millions of dollars for a first class education for this clown who SELF IDENTIFIED as a Palestinian, not an American.
Just because he was a Muslim nutcase does not mean he needs sympathy. Perhaps if you can remove your lips from his ass for one god-damned minute you can show a little of that understanding and compassion for his victims.
We have no moral superiority if we aren't the land of tolerance, equality and religious freedom. God didn't bless America for being racist and religious bigots.
Every culture is on an evolutionary path toward a more cooperative and compassionate society. Some are further along than others but adding hatred to the mix is not helpful to anyone.
I do not buy into the "white devil" or the ignorant "darkie". This is a specific case of a murderer who thinks he is doing god's work... and he is muslim. I just do not think it is an opportunity to bash america, christians, fox news or bush/cheney. I am glad you are hopeful of the evolutionary path of society. Unfortunately I do not share your optimism.
Might I recommend you read David Hume Scottish Philosopher (1711-1776)till then Sunt superis sua jura, (The gods have their own laws) hahahaha,
If that is to deep try the great Patiot Thomas Paine
co-founder of the Islamic Community of Greater Killeen, told The
Associated Press on Saturday.
Hasan was anti-American just like you proudliberal1947. He thought that the suicide bombings were justified just like you do. You are as sick and twisted as he is.
I served for twenty plus years and my son was there the night it happened and he is there today processing to go over and do What COWARDS on the right Talk about and HIDE from commiting to.
So you Ignoeant Buffoon (new word I read haha) I take your insult as a praise because you would rather remain a INBRED weirdo then read a Book for enlightment. DUH! furhter proof the Hate Mongers on the right are all about dumbing down America.
This will be the last reply as your ignorance and stupidity are just to much to over come and like a true Hate Monger it is not the argument but claiming to have won the argument right wrong indifferent or otherwise. So Mr. Hate Monger bye bye.
As for Bush/Cheney's culpability, these genocidal wars against Iraq and Afghanistan are completely unnecessary, the result of their greed, power lust and bigotry. Yes, I blame them. We never should have attacked either nation as this was all inevitable due to their needless actions.
When a woman gets raped you are the kind of person who blames her for wearing suggestive clothing.
Furthermore, you can now call these the Bush/Cheney/Obama/Biden wars.
Hasan was not some innocent victim. He is a mentally deranged muslim murderer. And apparently your hero.
As for religious bigotry, someone else pointed out that Christianity was, at one time, guilty of every savagery you accuse the Muslims. Give bigots like yourself enough rope and you would return to those barbaric times. My point is that all people, Muslims, Arabs, Christians are the same, we are all brothers and sisters, and all good and bad. Don't condemn people for their religion or skin color. The foundations of this nation are tolerance, equality not bigotry, racism and Christianity.
"He loved America" of Hasan
"I'm simply saying he is the victim" of Hasan
"Christianity was, at one time, guilty of every savagery...Don't condemn people for their religion or skin color." Is this consistent vkobaya?
So your point is that the victims got what they deserved from the great american hasan... nice.
Have you Moron white trailer trash wackos sunk so low in your hatred that you even feed on our own CITIZENS answering the call of OUR COUNTRY.
Do you have the same disdain for the wahbiasts and the taliban? Because if you do, then it is not apparent in your post about a deranged muslim fanatic.
As far as the tours I was just answering your question... "I am concerned that NO ONE, especially the WACKO RIGHT is asking how many TOURS did this man served?" I also do not care at this point if he felt put upon for people scoffing at his "Allah is Love" bumper sticker.
My hero is Kimberly Munley. What a brave person to draw her weapon and run to the sound of gunfire. She should receive the congressional medal of honor.
I have bee retired for more years the I care to remember but here is the point, on a railhead in Germany a yung soldier locked and loaded a 105 round in a tank that was in front of his, when his platton Sgt. got into his tank the young soldier fired killing the platoon Sgt and two additional crew members plus wounding approx. 9 other soldiers. I did not hear anyone condemn that soldier on his faith as is being done here. He was White and Christian on the reports that came out at the time NO mention of his thnicity or religion was mentioned or the group of people hee associated with. I do not know all that much of Islam but I do nknow tht for 98% of the followers are good people, my issue is with the constant he is a Muslim and he is Evil because of it. Now the young man that killed those people wasn't being given a 15 day
leave because of our mission. To condemn a community on FEAR and Hatred is wrong and that is what has most people in a up roar, it is the christian Hate Mongers working on FEAR and twisted Truths.
TROLL.
Don't feed it.
