General John Pershing knew exactly how to deal with those islamic savages. First beat all the useful information out of them. Make them dig their own graves and use bullets dipped in hog's blood. Bury them covered in pig entrails.

Those islamic animals are not afraid of dying for their death cult, but if you can deprive them of any hope in the afterlife you can make martyr-dom less attractive.


Is that what Pershing really did? I didn't know that.

I try to be a compassionate person, but my level of understanding and compassion was reached on 9/11. God forgive me, but I do not see where anything is too bad to do to those who do, or would murder and maim innocent people just for their own selfish goal of finding a better after-life (whether it includes 72 virgins or not). I don't believe they are all fighting for a unified cause - that being to spread their religion that they believe is the only true one. That is only the surface propellant. I think the problem is deeper in their psyches: the majority of these people are just self-centered, selfish, and self-focused and just are seeking what they believe will be glory for themselves and the heck with anyone else. They don't even protect one another.

We can't make them act more humane when they don’t value any life. We can't make them realize the importance of peace. They have no desire for anything earthly. Peace, success in business, happiness on earth, families, etc, nothing material means anything to them. Their only personal interest is on their own after-life. They are totally self-absorbed in their own future "glory."

Their twisted minds do not accept any notion of peace on earth between all religions, and all people as a goal worth achieving. Their only goal is some theory of happiness they will have after death. We just cannot make them understand or accept civilized behavior. We might call them evil, hateful, or other words, but they don't care what we think of them or what they do on earth. They only care about what they believe will come to them after they die. How can we make people care about others lives on earth, when they do not value their own here?

IMHO that is the crux of the problem, not just the movement per se, but the deeper mindset of the people who think only of themselves.

The Gen. Pershing thing is an urban legend, but the lesson of which is worth following.
