Death to Islam.
Never forget.
[Why are you brucecw coming out of the woodwork to defend the islamic "god" on this as well??? And that IS what you are doing.]
Please can we stop this discussion? I for one do not want to see this thread get pulled again. Let's draw a line under this.
Why am I not surprised that you want to put these kinds of words into my mouth????? There is NOTHING in my post that could be taken that way - in fact just the opposite.
I have said before on this forum, and in fact what I posted implies, that I think it very likely that Islam is not merely an antichristian (small a) religion, but is in fact the religion of the Antichrist (big A). Is that not enough for you???
But I did not reach this conclusion because of any cheap linguistic trick about what word they use to mean "God" (after all, the root of the English word also was originally applied to various pagan gods)!
My grandfather the preacher used to complain about parishioners who thought that "if the King James Version was good enough for Paul and Silas, it's good enough for them." You're giving the impression of having a similar uneducated view of Christianity.
Thanks Indie, this was in the article:
Jason Korsower of the Washington, D.C., counter-terrorism think tank, The Investigative Project, told CNSNews.com that
"these events could be dry runs or decoys designed to divert the intelligence community's attention to planes while the next attack might be maritime or a truck bomb."
Another counter-terrorism official,
who spoke with CNSNews.com on condition of anonymity,
said air passengers must take steps to ensure their own safety in situations similar to the one involving the Northwest Airlines flight from Detroit to Los Angeles.
"The only real line of defense in isolated situations such as on airlines is intentional chaos.
Being a compliant hostage in the post 9-11 period will not buy you safety," the official said.
"You have a gun at both temples, one wielded by the terrorists aboard the plane and the other by the U.S. Air Force scrambling fighter jets to prevent another disaster on the ground such as on September 11th."
Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations,
dismissed the reports of suspicious behavior on the part of Middle Eastern individuals.
"In these kinds of situations if the people had not looked -- quote -- Middle Eastern, I doubt the same behavior would have attracted any attention whatsoever," Hooper told CNSNews.com.
"Going to the restrooms or other activity somehow becomes suspicious when the person looks Middle Eastern. That's the reality we live in today," he added.

Well, if it wasn't middle eastern men causing the problem, people wouldn't be observing them.
No blonde Methodists have tried to hijack a plane, that I've read about.
Cool it please.
