    Lets all take a few moments out from talking about US policy and politics and spend a moment thinking about those killed and injured in Bali last weekend and their families. -- modified at 1:10 Tuesday 4th October, 2005

    yes let's spend a few moments thinking about what those f**cked up muslims are planning next... here's what they are saying in Bali jails... STOP-ISLAM-NOW[^] Embrace nuclear weapons: Bashir Samantha Maiden October 04, 2005 ABU Bakir Bashir, the spiritual leader of Jemaah Islamiah, has outlined the religious justification for terror attacks in Bali, London and New York and urged jihadists to embrace nuclear weapons "if necessary". In a chilling interview last month in the Jakarta cell where he remains after his conspiracy conviction in relation to the 2002 Bali bombings, the radical Muslim cleric also warned of a clash of civilisations that would not end until the West "accepts to be governed by Islam". The alleged terrorist leader speaks of his hopes of meeting Osama bin Laden if he is released from prison and explains the justification for suicide bombers and terror attacks. "During battle it is different. Still, the whole notion revolves around martyrdom," he says. "But in places like London and in America there must be other calculations. In battle it is best to cause as many casualties as possible."

          Phew! Apologies for the tardiness of my response: it has taken half an hour of the dreaded 500's to get the reply screen to display! Anyway, in response... viaduct wrote: How long have you spent with muslims? Quite a bit, actually, both professionally and personally without a problem. How many of them approved? To my face? Who knows but that really isn'yt the point. The point is how many islamic community leaders come out and say, categorically, that fundamentalism (of any kind) is wrong? Or that violence against anyone is wrong? Or that terrorists should be given up to the authorities? Or that all violence towards the US, Israel, etc should cease forthwith? No, no, can't hear a thing... viaduct wrote: How much deviation from your own views do you tolerate before deciding that you just can't co-exist on this planet with someone? I think when they start indiscriminatley killing innocent people does it for me. What does it for you? At the end of the day I am entitled to defend me and mine from what is an obvious enemy that would not hesitate to destroy me. Perhaps you'd wait for the first shot before reacting: I prefer to cut the head off a snake before it bites me. Contrary to what you might think I crave peace not war. But I will not trade freedom or my life for peace; I'll fight for it.

                  Err, try: kill them before they kill us. Works for me. Don't you lefties get it? They will not stop till they get what they want and we just make it easy because we don't have the stomach to say stop and take action, any action, to make that happen. We're so busy being politically correct that we don't see that that just plays into the hands of lunatics and killers who know how to play the system. Unless we take action soon you may as well go and swear allegiance to allah while you can still do it voluntarily.

                    That neither one is justified? That no-one has the right to dictate if or how i worship or choose my Gov't? Eh, i can't speak for Anonymous - he's probably locked in a little room somewhere polishing his gun anyway. But that would be my point - that no-one gets off the hook, at home or abroad.

I guess we as a society will have to wait until untold 1000's more are murdered in the name of islam until enough people say "enough let's do something" to drown out the shrieking & wailing of the all too polite people who want to say "can't we all just get along" and keep their head in the sand GEORGE-ORWELL[^] "People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."

Wow, you have to approve 100% before your considered with having appalling values that you wouldn't want to live with? Talking percentages here, I would have trouble talking with someone that approved even just 50%. 25%. There is no excuse for the senseless murderings of innocent human beings. If someone even approved 5%, I'd have a problem with it. viaduct wrote: How much deviation from your own views do you tolerate before deciding that you just can't co-exist on this planet with someone? 50%? 5%? 1%? And you really are into percentages, aren't you? Me, for myself, I will tolerate, even respect, the beliefs and opinions of my fellowman, but I do not tolerate and respect the action of bombing innocents. Not even if they only agreed with it 1%.

Man, I get sick of that stupid argument. What difference does it make how many muslims were horrified by the terrorism? Is "moderate" an arabic word for "coward"? If the so-called moderates are unable or unwilling to control their extremists factions what the hell difference does it make if they are moderate or not? Are the rest of us supposed to just endure unedning attacks from fanatics because by defending ourselves we might accidentally harm a moderate? Or are we supposed to figure out why the muslims don't like us and change until they do? I'm willing to follow what ever logical options you wish to offer, but until you do I'm shooting back indiscriminantly. "Capitalism is the source of all true freedom."

What we have are people murdered people. Followers of every religion (and none) have the choice whether to follow a peaceful or a violent path through life, and there are murderers of all faiths (and none). The bombers could have chosen a peaceful path to put over their point of view, but they didn't. Their religion is irrelevant: they themselves decided to take the path of violence. Christians do it; Hindus do it. Islam isn't the problem, it's the fact that some people erroneously think that violence will solve their problems. Asynes yw brassa ages kwilkynyow.

                                    Err, try: kill them before they kill us. Works for me. Don't you lefties get it? They will not stop till they get what they want and we just make it easy because we don't have the stomach to say stop and take action, any action, to make that happen. We're so busy being politically correct that we don't see that that just plays into the hands of lunatics and killers who know how to play the system. Unless we take action soon you may as well go and swear allegiance to allah while you can still do it voluntarily.

But Musilums believe they have to the right to kill you if you do not follow the their teaching and their ways. Our one God does not believe this. So I'm not sure what they are worshiping. Islam is like the borg. They try to infiltrate everything to take it over. Is it just a coincidence that Mohammad "rose" to heaven on the Jewish holy site of the temple mount? therefore taking it over as their own?

                                          I cannot take anything the Bush administration does seriously. The corruption, the cynical disregard for humanity, the cronyism and incompetence, all wrapped in a slimey flag of ultra-marketed nationalism repulses me. -- consdubya from fark.com.
