A lot of blacks who are or have been in prison converted to Muslim. There are active recruiting programs going on in prisons.

The original headline was "Bandits, including a foreign mercenary, eliminated in in Chechnya’s Kurchaloi region"

What does the mercenary's race have to do with this story? And why did you feel it necessary to add "US Black" in parentheses to the thread title?

Does any one remember the book called "The Zebra Killers"?


Black Islamic Militants with one purpose...To kill as many "White Devils" as possible.


Is this a sign of things to come?

Will calling him Irish change anything?

Many of the African nations are Muslims.

I'd bet that you already know the answer to the question, or you wouldn't be asking. But I'd love to hear to poster's response (here's a wager that we'll not get one).

If I were a good poet, I should write a response for the media to a disenfranchised african-america man forced by Bush to leave country and family to seek other employed in another country, only to be killed by the vast right wing conspiracy...

Yes, I saw the term "Afro American" in the body of the article.

Why is your question relevant? I asked the original poster what the relevance of the man's race is and why he or she felt compelled to add "US black" to the thread title. And I've not yet received an answer to that question.

The Religion of Peace? as you know, Islam means peace. Muslims are the most peaceful people in the world, and will be more so when the whole world become Harb-al-Islam.

No, he recently rejoined the Kerry campaign, which is good for young black women, since that means he isn't trolling out there somewhere...

Can't have that guy reproducing anymore...

What are you saying? That a black American fighting with (probably Al Queada tied terrorist) is just par for the course?


You don't find it unusual enough to be news?


Nobody is saying any thing racist here, but a black American fighting with Chechnya bandits or Islamic terrorist is going to raise a few eyebrows about his motivation. Is is money or extreme religous views?
