I thought being covered totally was just being imposed on women because according to Koran's New International Version a skin is considered a sexual organ... perhaps there has been so many gay terrorists/muzzies lately that they even want to preserve men's skin... sarc//

"I read something a couple of days ago about Iran trying to impose what they called the "Islamic dress code," which seemed to mean huge mounds of fabric and dark dull colors for everyone."And they live in the $^%&@#! desert no less, you would think that after all these centuries they would figure out that layers of dark clothes that women have to wear IS STUPID!!!

You know...at this point...you can understand why Saddam had to be absolutely ruthless. You have to walk into neighborhoods...kill a mullah or two...break some legs...and basically forget about democracy. I don't think our long-term plans for the Iraqis will fix anything in the country today. These dimwits have to be threaten each and everyday...to make them civiliazed. We are wasting our time there now.

Islam amazes me more and more every day. Shorts.

Here's the reason these men were killed. The murderers wanted their car, and used the victims' clothing as an excuse.

I find the idea that this was a Sunni group rather odd. They aren't usually very religious.

The number of reasons you can killed around Islam is truly staggering. Agreed...makes you wonder what percentage of the population there dies of old age.

Unbelievable. But I guess they didn't have shorts in the 7th century, so therefore shorts are eeevilll. "They" didn't have Kalashnikov model 47 semi-automatic rifles nor cell phone triggers for IEDs....but I guess those are okay because they effectively carry the fight for freedom against The Great Satan.

Another example (like we need another) that while all people may be created equal to say all people ARE equal is downright stupid.
These genetically inferior people, gullible enough to believe in the most evil belief system in existence today, do not belong in society.
Is-slime must be de-listed as a religion and assigned its proper designation of "Hate Group" and be dealt with accordingly. Close all camouflaged weapons factories in the USA known as mosques.

If these three men had been seen butchering their wives they probably would have been left alone.

It doesn't matter what you believe, say, or do, somewhere there is an islamofamist group that will kill you for it.

Good old democratic Iraq exercizing its democratic right to mob rule.

Guns don't kill people. (Too many of the) Muslims kill people.
(See also The USS Cole, The World Trade Center, and numerous beheadings on videotape.)

Most people look awful in shorts (and just can't see themselves as others see them) and I wonder why they wear such things but, hey, let's cut 'em some slack. It's really not a capital offense, you know.
Only in the Middle East could someone be gunned down for wearing shorts. What a place!
To: Flyer
There's more to that story than what is reported. It wasn't really about wearing shorts.
And the militias are being targeted by the government now. If there were eyewitnesses to this, as mentioned, these shooters' days are probably numbered.
