Yourself you say “There are 1.5 billion adherents to christianity’s 2.1 billion.”. THAT IS minority (although not as small as i.e. Hare Krishna believers).

Furthermore: I never heard of christian *suicide* bombers attacking abortion clinic, and yes, its a big difference: it takes strong beliefs, religiousness on the verge of fanatism actually, to kill yourself in the name of ______ (insert whatever). And for this exactly same reason I don’t believe that the muslim suicide bombers are “atheists who masquerade as pious”. Atheists believe there is nothing after this life they have, thus they generally value their own lives (at least) way too much to ‘sacrifice’ themselves. So I’m sorry, but I don’t buy your wicked thesis about “atheists pretending to be muslim fuckups and blowing themselves” LOL It is preposterus LOL

99 virgins awaits in heaven… That, and financial support to their families, explains mostly why so many young muslim dudes are so eager to blow up themselves in the name of allah.

Further the terrorists and the suicide bombers re not muslim. They are atheists who masquerade as pious. Just as any abortion clinic bomber here in the US is NOT christian by the religion’s rules.

This is again why propaganda is more effective than even violence. This is why people are like sheep and will believe anything like the lie that there were communist governments and these said governments were coming after the US so we need CD and rings of missle defense and more nukes that we have earths to bear them all. Every leader from the dawn if civilisation has pulled the “The enemy wants to destroy our way of life” card!

It was ignorance back then that aloowed people to be duped, it is ignorance now.

When you actually take the time to LEARN about people other than your own and those in your town… you realise we are not at all unlike one another.

It is mindless fear that is the true enemy of the world.

Also, hypocrisy aside, I have a question: if some non-muslim kills potential muslim “martyr” before he blows himself up, isn’t he giving him a favor by sending him to heaven?
Any muslim here care to explain?

That said there are times when attacks truly appear “indiscriminate” such as when an Iraqi suicide bombs a bus of other Iraqis. The strategic value in such a maneuver is at best questionable.

I suppose most people would consider “indiscriminate” killing as killing with no apparent strategic goal. The catch of course is that “apparent” is based on available information which may not provide enough insight into the reasons for a given attack.

But the indiscriminate (often purposeful) killing of innocents is where the “suicide bomber” stops being a soldier fighting for a cause and starts being a murderer.

That would condemn every army that has ever marched. It would also refute the Pentagon’s “Collateral Damage” excuse.

You also missed the key term here, asymmetrical warfare. . When one side does not have the power to to meet the other side in equal combat, they must improvise. Whether that involves guerrilla warfare, using the terrain to your advantage, surprise attacks, or even suicide attacks is irrelevant. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

But, when you are winning or on top, it is so much easier to deride your opponent as unsportsmanlike for wanting to win.

and why fuck with the interest rate.. investments are up.. don’t be afraid to trade

Ive been doing this since halo 2 (yes the 2nd one) was released. Now I can practically guraentee that i could beat this guy if I had to play with my toes, blindfolded, while undergoing water-boarding – but if im about to die, I sticky the ground & blow myself up – usually kills the guy who was attempting to kill me, and the electronic backlash pops his kid brother’s eyes out of their sockets.

yeah – suicide bombers are leet shit.

Frankly, I don’t think the civilians in a war zone care if they die as a victim of a suicide bomber or are “collateral damage” in an airstrike.
