Did anyone notice that Obama referred to him by his Muslim name rather than his Christian name? Now why would he do that?
Seems he found the purpose in life:
“The end”...
Well, from the picture shown here, it looks like Dad’s a fisherman so he can’t be all that bad!! I’m not gonna say his parents are a bunch of left wing liberals who steered their kid down the wrong way. They could just be parents who love their son no matter what idiotic decisions he’s made. I am speaking as a parent myself. You can train your kids to the best of your ability. In the end, they have a life to lead and decisions to make. You only hope the lessons you taught them stick before they get in real trouble.
As for going to Beirut, I have been there and though it’s been more than 30 years ago, I don’t think much has changed. It’s not a place I would ever advise anyone to go without being heavily armed and having a lot of friends with you who are also heavily armed. Even then, why go? If he wanted to help the poor and disadvantaged, that’s very good and very admirable. However, you can do that right here in America. There are many church charitable groups that go on ‘missions’ to the poor and disadvantaged and help them out here. There’s Habitat for Humanity and many more good groups doing good work for the poor right here in America. I think I would feel better if my son told me he’s going to West Africa to help fight Ebola than going to Beirut to help refugees.
In the end, it brings to mind the line from the Indiana Jones 3 movie when the bad guy chose the wrong chalice. As the Knight Templar said, “he chose poorly”. It cost him his life....
I have a question for our military guys and gals. According to the article he joined the Rangers in 2006, is that a unit you can just join or do you have to be in the Army for a certain amount of time? Can you be a Ranger at 18? Secondly he was deployed and discharged honorably in 2007 for medical reasons? Sounds like Psychiatric problems to me. Not buying the timeline.
I guess the naive kid found the meaning of life, and the national IQ went up a fraction of a point.
You can’t “just join.” But you don’t have to serve previously. You can get an Option 40 contract which guarantees you a shot when you enlist. But those are very limited for infantrymen and almost nonexistent for other MOS. You have to be very good to get one, and then it’s not guaranteed. There’s a strict selection process, and if you fail (which many do), you get sent wherever the Army wants to send you.
There are plenty of community organizer jobs right here in the US. Just ask hussein.
Must have come from a wealthy family. Who has the time or means to search for the quest of a purpose in life?
Kassig read their book. He embraced their book. Their book says they can cut his head off. That’s their take on it. It did not matter that Kassig thought the book said otherwise since he embraced the book and thought that protected him. What mattered is that the guys with the knives believed that their book gave them the right to say that Kassig was not what Kassig said he was.
islam is called a religion, it is no more a religion than the Crips and the Bloods are. It is no more a religion than MS13 and the list goes on are.
Unfortunately for Kassig it appears that he believed everything he read in the Koran without understanding what what he was reading meant to the “real” followers. He was wrong headed about everything now he is no headed...
Get it right, per liberal puke and former Indy Star columnist now writing for WTHR, Bob Kravitz——

Very nice of the Oak Ridge Boys to mention Kassig before the national anthem, but his name is Abdul Rahman, not Peter. Respect it.#ColtsWTHR

You mean Muhammad Ali gets mad when you call him Cassius Clay? :)
He has been confirmed as serving in ACO 1/75th.
Is that normal for an 18 or 18 year old kid? I don’t know. Not my area of expertise,
