why are you laughing? This behavior was condemned by us Americans and punishment  was administered to the perpetrators. Uhhhh that would be reduction in rank, loss of pay, dishonorable discharge and jail time. Punishment far greater than these Muslims will get for their crime. A crime I hope we can agree is far more severe than humiliation. Whatcha think??
I was laughing at the Colbert-esque generalisation.

I think you'll find the guy in the last picture was dead - how humiliating that must be...

If I were to apply the same generalisations that you do then I would be entitled to declare that all Americans are fond of torture, sexual abuse and extra-judicial killing. But I have sufficient intellect not to engage in such stupid behaviour.
THAT is not the point of the OP. The point is that there is no Muslim outrage over the kid beheading another person. It has been shown to you that Americans condemn far less crimes than that. The fact that these people were punished as listed in my previous post would moot your generalization that Americans for the most part approve of such behavior. As it is now, YOU can not make the same claim about the beheading.

PS...Unless the wsoldier in the picture actually killed the guy and he did not die in battle. Her posing with the body does not compare to beheading him does it?

I agree, Muslims need to speak out more or they aren't going to get much sympathy here. If they don't they will be generalised.

Quite a few Americans spoke out in defence of such behaviour Lowing. Your president actually proposed legislation that would loosen US laws banning the use of torture, the torture-sufferer John McCain being the voice of reason that averted what would have been a national disgrace/shame. Gitmo is still open you know Lowing - a lot of people think that's AOK. Here in the rest of the world we look upon it with the disgust it deserves.

The act discussed in the OP is horrifyingly sickening and difficult to comprehend. Thankfully I don't really have to comprehend it because I certainly won't be going to that lawless part of the world anytime soon. The reason the perpetrators won't be held accountable for their crimes is because of the meaningless shambles of a government they have. They live in a state of anarchy. I don't really think you fully comrepehend the climate of fear that exists in those kind of countries. Protesting a la western free speech parades is pretty much gonna end up with you getting your head chopped off. Say the wrong thing in Northern Ireland and you'd get a bullet in the head. Same applies over there. Last time I was in London there were thousands taking part in a Muslim parade outside Hyde Park - lots of young muslims were handing out leaflets decrying terrorists 'unrepresentative of Islam' carrying out atrocties and such. Maybe you have your head buried in the sand. The media certainly does. I guess you aren't very familiar with real muslims.

Gitmo etc.... is way different than what is happening in this article and you know it. Gitmo exists and tortures accured to gain information and intel to help save coalition lives, maybe even end the war sooner. It was not done for pleasure. I guess we could have tried to ask the POW's nicely to tell us all they knew but I doubt that it would have worked. Prisoners have been interogated for thousands of years by every country on the planet. Now that some dumb fuck posts pictures of it on the internet all of a sudden the US invented this technique for information gathering. I say this, not even agreeing that the US has done anything to these POW's that would come close to the real torture that has been done in the ME or Europe over the years.


Real Muslims? are these the Muslims that hold women lower than a fucking dog in society?

Unlike you Lowing I have principles when it comes to things like torture. I will NEVER entertain the thought of condoning or turning a blind eye to my representatives ceding the moral high ground by sanctioning such unrpincipled and depraved behaviour. My how America has changed. Now torture is OK! Well excuse me while I frown upon that for a while. As John McCain testified: torture mostly brings forth information of zero usefulness, himself having suffered at the hands of the Vietnamese in a concentration camp for several years. People will say anything, true or false, under extreme physical/mental duress. I'm sure if I was subjected to torture I'd confess to the fucking Kennedy hit if I thought it would ease the pain.

This sickens me lowing. You are expressing outrage at the fact that muslims aren't protesting outside your front door to show their disgust and yet you sit here and post the pros of something that brings your country into serious disrepute. It's quite ironic.

Who else engages in torture should not concern you if you are principled. Just because someone starts sending jews to gas chambers doesn't mean it's ok for others. Just because I rob a bank doesn't mean it's ok for you to rob a bank.

Ask m3thod about women - he's a real muslim. Better yet - ask a muslim woman.

See in the article how reformists are trying to change things so women can stand for president in Iran? They can already be elected to parliament. I didn't realise dogs could run for office in USA. I guess they don't show that on Fox do they lowing?


PS You may not have noticed but this wasn't a religion based execution: it was a traitor-based one.

Interrogation can be a brutal affair, why do you think Special Forces are trained to withstand it?
Besides there is still quite a thick line between forcing somebody to talk than murdering them for a propaganda purpose, especially when the killer is a kid.

How would you like them to do this? If I was Catholic and another story about priests molesting kids appeared, I'm sorry to dissapoint, but I'm not going to go stage a protest, or am I going to write into a newspaper or anything like that. The furthest I would go would probably to post my general indignation on the internets. If I (and I'm sure the same in reality goes for most of you) am not going to do anything, why should they? Stop being such fucking hypocrites.

But those aren't the average Muslims. The average Muslims are people just like you or I that do not condone terrorism of any sort, and just want to be left alone.

Ok Miller. Use the example I gave above. What are you realistically going to do about it to appease some idiot on the internet who thinks he knows everything? Start a protest? Write to a TV station? Stalk priests to ensure they don't molest people?

Realistically? Give people a better reason to help rather than stand by and watch.  The families and the lack of money is a great incentive for recruiting terrorists.  We need to show we are serious about this, not just say we'll help if given help.  Families of terrorists are given money, and the terrorist is glad to help his family in any way possible.  But, they are also told that if they give information to Americans, British, etc. that their families will pay the price.

It's not going to be easy, nothing is.  We have to at least try though, which is a major reason I support the war in Iraq.  Someone was actually trying to do something, not just throw words around.
