Twelve people were injured by the blast in the city of Ansbach, three of them seriously, Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann said at a news conference Monday. The bomber, a 27-year-old Syrian national who was known to police, was killed, Hermann said.I am a relative newcomer to this forum so maybe someone can tell me who applies titles to the various threads (discussion subjects). In other words, who was responsible for labeling this "Germany - Islamic Terrorists stries again" ? To the best of my knowledge, actions such as this are clearly, unequivocally without basis in any Islamic principle or doctrine. I do not recall the actions of Bush, Cheney, Wolfowicz, Blair and their cohorts being similarly labeled when they attacked and murdered well in excess of a million people in Iraq; Dumbo Bush actually used the term 'crusade'. Why was it not 'Christian Terrorism' when USA invaded Vietnam and murdered well in excess of a million innocent, defenseless people ?
Maybe if you look closely you would see. The Islamic world is crumbling before your eyes as factions canalize itself. The idiots doing the above say they do it in the name of islam. Also, that is this definitive islamic principle/doctrine you speak of? Every mullah seem to have a version.
By the way, america is a secular nation. No where in its founding documents are mentions of Christianity being its founding principle.
Maybe we are reading from different news sources; were there any claims by the perpetrator(s) of this incident in Germany that their action(s) were based on Islam ? As I pointed out and as you no doubt know, George Bush specifically used the term 'crusade' to describe the invasion of Iraq and killing of more than one million Iraqis. Why was this not boldly called out as 'Christian Terrorism' ? Can you point us to any statement or claim by the bomber that his action was taken in the name of Islam ?
You are missing my point....I am suggesting you pretend you know what is islam. I do not know of any officiating body that says that this is what is islam by consensus. I know in Saudi Arabia they have their view as does the Iranians as does the Jordanians and then we have Sunnis of Iraq metamorphosing into ISIS with their own apocalyptic vision. I do not have to mention the blind idiot Mullah Omar and his Al Queda expression ot the revivalist version of it in the brotherhood that give us the Taliban.
Do not be an idiot. The modern meaning of the word "crusade" does not mean a christian army on the warpath. It means a force seeking retribution for ills at the hands of others and has no referent in religion. Do not conflate an ancient meaning with a modern one. Also, except in the minds of a few fundamentalist rapture ready fools. America is not christian. It is a plurality by definition from its federalist construct that devolved power to local people to its declaration of faith that all men are created equal. Where is that in a typical Muslim state?
In any event, were I born in the middle ages I would gladly be on a crusade. Who the hell tell the Muslims to invade Jerusalem? It was not their holy place except in some night travel mentioned by the prophet. It was the real life historical ground of Jews and later Christians. Yes in both sense you miss the point and assume a wrong that does not exist for Muslims but people being invaded or abused.
Dumbass, there is no need to go back top the middle ages; the issues to be resolved are current; present day ! Idiots like you seem to think that only your interests count and consequently 'to hell with everyone else' ! Bush openly professed his Christian conviction time and again and you damn well know that ! The point I was I was making, and which you are too stupid to comprehend, is that the white Christian nations continue to take military advantage over others primarily to rob them of their resources; this is what colonialism was about and in this regard some serious reading should help you to understand the root causes of many of the world's present day issues. What good reasons are there for USA to have 5800 employees in their embassy in Baghdad ? What do you know about Mullah Omar, Taliban and all the other 'evil forces' that are thorns in the sides of USA and its cohorts ? Who created Taliban and why ? Who created Al Qaeda and why ? Whose friend was Bin Ladin ?Too many of you are so quick to jump on the 'bandwagon' because you believe this will make you 'fit in'. The sad reality is, however, is that you do not realize how asinine your statements are ! Instead of making the assumption that CNN is paragon of truth, travel to some of these countries and speak to people there, the same people you 'know it all' ignoramuses seem to despise and you will quickly begin to understand that the world if a whole lot different from what you presently perceive it to be. Travel to some of these places and talk to the ordinary people; what you hear will bring you into the real world ...and should help you decrease your ego and ignorance !
