The way they treat their women, I'm surprised they haven't used them more in the past. They treat their women like second class citizens.

True. But an understatement to say the least. Actually, their women are used as battering rams, and at the least, pawns to the filthy cowardly swine they call "master".

Why can't the women have virgins too?

But wait, Christianity is a "religion of peace". Way to be a hypocrite.
When has the US ever invaded or attacked anyone on the basis of "our" religion?

And I really don't know the figures to this offhand, but since you brought it up, maybe you could provide us with the number of civilian casualties in Iraq caused by the US and compare that to the number of Iraqis murdered by Saddam Hussein?

You're right, we don't invade because of our religion. We invade because of our business interests. That is SOOO much more humane.

No, no virgins for women

In the other hand I read about Nevada's "prostiDUDEs". Maybe they could have one of those.

Why not compare them to the thousands the muslims are still killing their own people? Muslims kill more muslims around the world than anyone.


Burkas should be banned in this country. You cannot see who is under them or what they may be carrying.

And please, ABC is hardly a reliable source for news. Talk about fear-mongering. Let's all be scared of these "terrorists" even though since the 1960s more Americans have been killed from allergic reactions to peanuts and lightning strikes than these so-called terrorists. Man I am so scared, since ABC news told me to be. Everything they say should be valued as the highest truth.

The United States is not a theocracy. I'm surprised you didn't know that

And the wars in Vietnam and Iraq (while unjust and irresponsible) were not based out of religiousity. There were no Christian sects that preached the need to kill Vietnamese or Iraqis. Quite unlike the imams of widespread islam, eh? Quite unlike the mosques in the UK who had a radical imam who travelled to mosques throughout the country recruiting future jihadists. And not one of those so called moderate muslims turned the psycho in.

Like I just said, so it's more humane to kill people because of business interests than religion? The amount of people, especially muslims that we kill regardless of the reason is not even comparable to the TINY amount of "terrorists" that have killed Americas in the last 50 years.
