The method of execution (beheading) is particularly associated with Islam in our era. In case you haven't been paying attention, there have been a number of high-profile cases recently. You think it's a coincidence that he converted to Islam, was trying to get coworkers to convert, and then beheaded a woman? No, it's no coincidence.

No, actually the beheadings are associated with a particularly extremist form of Islam, also noted for killing other Muslims!

Why aren't all the drug cartel beheadings in Mexico tied to Catholicism or Christianity? Why isn't there the same fear and paranoia with those? This shows that terrorism is everywhere and it's pretty asinine to wage a never ending war against it. We have a violent culture and lunatics pop up every now and again. Should we invade and bomb Oklahoma; that should teach the terrorist, right?

This guy in Oklahoma was a lunatic killer--fry his ass. At the same time, it's not losing any sleep over this incident.
Exactly.

The liberal Islamicist apologists are almost as scary as the terrorists themselves.

Beheading, and other kinds of dismemberment aren't "particularly associated" except by those who WANT to associate it.

I'm glad we agree that it's associated with Islam. You'd have to be willfully blind not to see that. The fact that Muslims behead other Muslims as well does no favors for whatever point you're trying to prove. As for it being "extreme," there are many Muslims would obviously disagree. The inspiration comes from somewhere, and that somewhere is their holy book.

Exactly.
I'm pretty sure you can understand that the jihadists are doing it in the name of their religion and the cartels are doing in for their business and territory and they may or may not be Christian. The jihadists see anyone that doesn't share their view as a potential target. The cartels are focused on their business rivals. One makes many more people a possible target than others. I know it feels better to not acknowledge that or to draw equivalence, but it's not the case. The jihadists will tell you it's not the case. They want to take over. The cartels would rather go unnoticed.

Who is apologizing for maniacs beheading people? Go ahead, point out who the people are that are apologizing for that.

No he wasn't; like most in that part of the world then he was brought up that way, but rejected it later in life, even dabbling in the occult. This has been discussed ad nauseum here, you're behind.
