Glad to see you sourced your information from such an illustrious publication as the sun. It might explain your twisted view(s) of the UK. I remember from a previous post that you equated the impact of a car bomb to a car accident. Using your previous logic, I think your time would be better spent ecouraging people to drive slower and wear seatbelts, than getting yourself worked up about this news report and offering a tabloid list of options to yet another poll. Who in their right mind would want to set them free? . Surely you could of offered a more realistic set of options to generate a wider scope of discussion. Quote-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Reply To -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- quade: The terrorists are simply terrorists. Being Muslim has nothing to do with them also having some other rather fucked up points of view. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JR: Disagree. Muslim beliefs are central to their ideology which tells them to go out and kill others. They take it straight from their Koran. They are extremist beliefs, yes, but nevertheless beliefs shared by many Muslims. And it's not an independent strategy they came up with elsewhere, it comes from their religious ideology.Quote The statement concerning the koran telling muslims to go out and kill others is simply not true. If you are refering to jihad (and I think you are), the interpretation can be complex and is often misunderstood. In a nutshell, jihad describes how a muslim should 'strive' (literal translation of jihad) to improve oneself by non-violent means through the tenets of islam, and encourage others to believe by setting a good example. 'Wars' of Jihad can only be fought in self-denfense and the killing of innocent third parties is absolutely forbidden. Of course this interpretation of Jihad can be extrapolated to extremes by fundamentalists, and the term misunderstood by the west alike. References? Simply google it and a wealth of information will appear from multiple biased and unbiased sources. As you can see your oversimplified interpretation of the koran is far from correct. Please don't reference the sun as your only source if you want to be taken seriously.

Thanks. Forgot to say hello everyone

How the hell can you compare a car accident to a car bomb? There is nothing accidental about a car bomb, or the terror and mayhem that ensues. Maybe you should try living somewhere where car bombs are a reality of everyday life and you will almost certainly think differently. To trivialise acts of terroroism says alot about your lack of understanding of world affairs...... Yes I know I am a lurker and this is my first time post, but the urge to point out such a ridiculous statement far outweighs the need for an introduction.
