And, WHAT SERB IS RUSSIAN ORTHODOX???? ZERO! NONE...NADA...ZIP!!SERBS ARE SERBIAN ORTHODOX CHRISTIANS.
radical islam is an insane death cult and moderate islam is the trojan horse of radical islam. religion of peace....phoooney.
Pastor Jerry Vines is RIGHT ON TARGET ABOUT islam and that child molestor and murderer prophet of theirs.
It's precisely this kind of bulls**t PC "we are the world" crap that drove me out of the Army back in '96. I am thoroughly disgusted!
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

My Dad also hated what a PC outfit the USA Army had become. He passed away before the klintoons bombed the crap out of a Christian country to help islamics in Kosovo!!
However, he was around to witness the PC crap that got the USA involved in the Balkans against the Serbs in the first place.
HE SAID WE WERE WRONG TO GO AGAINST OUR OLD FRIENDS THE SERBS. He even knew an pilot saved by them( the Chetniks) in WWII.
And, by the way...my handle " crazykatz" is the name of my late Dad's cat....I inherited that rascally cat, when Dad passed away a few years ago. Now, they are both gone.
