I once read that Islam was not successful until it was forced upon people and the people doing the forcing were promised the land, women and children (to takes as slaves) of the "infidels" they forced it upon.
It began life as a religion of conquest. A thousand yrs ago a Persian poet wrote in the Book Of Kings:
"Damn this world, damn this time, damn this fate,
That uncivilized Arabs have come to
Make me a Muslim
Where are your valiant warriors and priests
Where are your hunting parties and your feats?"
The early caliphates (Umayyad), the Moors, the Ottomans ... the list is long. Christianity wasn't much different. It was expansionist as well. All across the world but it grew up 500 yrs ago. Islam hasn't yet. It is still actively trying to force infidels into alignment with its beliefs.
why do you care what iran does. i mean here criminals are rewarded and called victims of opression if they willingly and openlywant to commit crime
Well they've killed plenty of our troops who were NOT in their country so yeah I care. To the extent that I'd like to see us take about a 10x degree of vengeance upon them for that. When does that start? I'd like to help. Maybe send some $$ to buy a guidance fin on an FAE?
I don't have a problem with this. It's their country and culture and laws. As long as they are not being unfairly tried, then so be it.
After all, we have the death penalty in this country. (Which I support)
Well if we have the Death Penalty, all lesser punishments ought to be petty in comparison. (I would support it if it was used effectively but it isn't so I don't.)
I'm sure your local police officer can gouge the eyes off a violent perpetrator of fellow human violence on an innocent other without consequence. I'm sure the police precinct's insurance will cover the incident and the police officer will skate without reprimand.
The death penalty is not used often enough. At the other end of the spectrum, we should institute caning to punish the many perps who are currently set free, crime after crime.
To me, gouging out someone's eyes is uncivilized cruelty. Kill them instead.
I don’t know how to feel about this. It’s grotesque, and I would like to know how this is done and who is sick enough to carry this out. Justice or not, unless it’s the original victim doing it, someone has to be, uh, mentally ill enough? to destroy someone’s eye in this way.
