It wouldn't "teach them" any lesson, anyway. They are not afraid to die for what they see as their cause, many of them volunteer to die so they get their 49 virgins. If we did this, all we would do is make martyrs of the people we executed. They would be heros to their cause, and it would accomplish exactly zero.

i doubt that beheadings by some in the middle east is intended to "teach" the west anything...It is used as intimadation to the local populations. An "example" of what happens if you question the power authority commimtting the beheadings.

persons advocating beheadings here in the west, would only confirm to true crhristians and non-christians alike, that the name of christianity can be hijacked by thoses that neither are christian nor follow the words of Jesus.

If we start with these extra-legal executions we will have abandoned law for fear and revenge. Once we do that we will have no excuse not to start and end the LAST CRUSADE with the goal of exterminating all of Islam and all of the believers from the planet. Anything less would be pointless.

Are YOU ready for this WAR?

I am not.

Why should they be allowed to do this for Christians in the Middle East, while Christians in the US and other predominately Christian nations around the world let Muslims live in peace and fearful?????

The more people in the west stay quiet, the more those radicals will become even more radicals!


GOOD GRIEF!!!!
You need to also read the Bible Christians will be persecuted
and it will get far worse than this
Christians do not go around killing people
I think you need some help if you are thinking anything like this!!!!
You know nothing of the Christian faith or you would never say this

Simply put, we're better than that, and we should set a positive moral example for the world instead of stooping to barbarism.

You obviously have not read the works of Christianity.
By the way, I'm not Christian, or Jewish. I have the spirits of my ancestors to get me through tough times. That's not to say I don't see light in parts of the good book, or understand how the ideas of civility in the good book, made their way into the US Constitution. There is common ground in all religions, even my spiritual world.

BAD IDEA

A Great offense, starts with a Greater Defense.

I say, ship them ALL out. and start over with Green Visas. If they are non-militant, they shouldn't have a problem gaining access back into this country and get back to their homes and lives.

Sounds radical but it's time for radical decisions to be made.

Obama is a soft chump so this is not on his plate to eat.

Where we teach our children through social engineering, that they are a victim. Some nations that have a national religion, in the Middle East, they teach hatred to all other religions.

It is the perfect storm.

I think we should stop sending the $$$$$$....... to do what they do! No money they'd have to think of better ways to live.
