I don’t get why people are questioning how MOST people are profiling Muslims. MUSLIMS ARE BLOWING US UP. Not Christians, not Jews, not Buddhists, not Mormons, not Catholics… MUSLIMS. Ever other day I hear on the news how another suicide bomber blew up a bus full of kids or whatever. Fuck them and their fucked up religion.
We’ve gotten so politically correct as a society that we cant even use common fucking sense to protect ourselves without someone calling us racist or “part of the problem”. Fuck that. You know what the problem is? A bunch of crazy MUSLIMS want to blow us up because they want to stay in the stone age, marry more than one women, and dominate the planet with their religion. THAT’S what the problem is. Not that people are saying, “well ya know Dave, there sure seem to be a lot of Muslim folks trying to kill us”. That’s simply an accurate observation.
I was at Rolling Thunder yesterday down at the Mall in Washington. I saw a bunch of bikers, white, black, brown and yellow. I saw a bunch of veterans, white black brown and yellow. Guess what I DIDN’T see? I didn’t see a bunch of fucking Muslims! In fact I don’t recall seeing a single one (although I’m sure there were a few there). Honestly, I felt pretty safe.
I also saw far less liberal fucktards wearing their skinny jeans and carrying their satchels than usual. Imagine that: being surrounded by patriots, many of whom have actually served our great country to preserve the rights and privileges that allow you to support your liberal political agenda, even though it puts their life, and the lives of all Americans at risk.
But most of you liberals are too fucking stupid to see that or even comprehend the character it takes to do that - much easier to just call them racist fascists. [/quote]
Are you too dumb to understand a western mainly white, christian army has killed thousands of times more than muslims have through “terrorism” ?
If we should be ok profiling muslims as fanatics, why shouldn’t Muslims profile all white people as imperialist supporting war bringers and blow up big towers?
How about we address the main problem, which is war for profit rather than the response which is muslims blowing shit up?[/quote]
First of all, our military is very diverse - it’s not “mainly white”, it’s about 30% minorities (about consistent with our population). Second, are you too stupid to know the difference between an armed militant and an innocent civilian?
Our soldiers in occupied areas have orders not to fire unless fired upon. The political correct hand tying of our soldiers means more of them are killed to keep liberal assholes like you happy.
As for “war for profit”, are you fucking retarded? These wars have cost us almost a trillion dollars of taxpayer money! That’s not “profit”, you stupid liberal fuck. If we wanted a profit, we’d have annexed a few oilfields in Iraq and paid for the war that way.
Now I’m sure you’re gonna start whining about collateral damage. That’s when, IN WAR, bad shit happens to civilians. The US does it’s best to limit collateral damage. We avoid drone strikes in populated areas. We TRY to keep it to a minimum and punish officers and soldiers when mistakes happen. It’s tough sometimes because these jihad crazy fucks don’t wear uniforms and tend to hide behind women and children or set up control centers in hospitals or schools, effectively using innocent people as human shields. So sometimes mistakes happen and innocent people are injured or killed. If they tried to leave the area, it’s probably likely that the fucking Muslims using them as shields would have killed them anyway. But despite tactical disadvantage, we try to protect civilians. That’s not what they do. These fucking Muslims TARGET our civilians. They kill innocent people just going about their day. It’s not like accidentally killing one of the kids in the compound of Abu Takesituptheass. If you are too stupid to see the difference, then this conversation is over.[/quote]
I certainly think there is a huge distinction between the US military killing civilians as collateral and some people deliberately targeting civilians. However try explaining to a mother or father that a US soldier killed their son, but it’s ok, because they were really trying to kill a militant. Do you not think they are going to be slightly pissed off at America?
I am certainly not trying to defend them then going off an supporting suicide bombings and the like. But at the same time you have to be able to see that as far as they are concerned, their country is being invaded, civilians are being killed, and they want to do something about it.
If the equivalent happened to the US, the country attacking would probably get nuked and many more civilians would die. You can’t expect your country to wage war, and then not have any sort of backlash

For the record, I am personally against drone strikes. I find the collateral damage to be unacceptable. My point was that the US does not DELIBERATELY target civilians, unlike these Muslim assholes.
I agree that if MY son or daughter were killed by a US drone, I would probably make it my life’s mission to wage war against the US any way I knew how. I would lose. But I would probably try anyway.
But it’s not just violence against the US. Today in Iraq, over 66 people were killed in sectarian violence, shiite against suni. The target? Supermarkets. The victims? Women and children.
These people are fucking sick. They don’t distinguish combatants from civilians. They just want to kill anyone their mullah tells them to.[/quote]
To play devil’s advocate here, why should citizens in a democracy be distinguished from combatants at all? It makes sense in a fascist dictatorship but in a society where we elect our leaders and have control over their actions (and lets be honest most of the action is well sanctioned by the civilians) then shouldn’t they also expect consequences to agreeing to go into a war?
From the radical Muslim point of view this is why there is no distinction between civilians and combatants and like it or not or whether or not it offends your cultural standards it does stand up to logic.
Perhaps it’s hard to swallow when you tell the world how your democracy is superior because the government represents the people that the people shouldn’t bear the consequences of that government.
[Edit re-read and I missed your comments about the Shiites vs the Sunni and my comments don’t apply to those battles]
