Soon, our time will come!
I wonder of Satan has enough of a sense of humor to make Bin Laden and Atta roomies?
In my understanding of Things Holy, we are not saved by "works" but by grace. It would follow that neither are we necessarily condemned by our works. I do wish that Jesus would give him a real good kick in the seat of his pants, though.
I doubt it. Nothing escapes from hell. That's the point.
One, these terrorists are not afraid to die by violent means.
Two, these terrorists will use any weapon to gain their objectives, the destruction of Israel and America.
Three, any death would only increase the "prestige" of Al Queda.
What should happen in the event that Usama bin Laden is captured alive is this.
1. His trial should be public, in accordance with Islamic law.
2. His crimes against women and children, which the Koran strictly forbids, except in special circumstances, should be announced to the world.
3. His conviction and sentence should be according to Islamic law that is defined in the Koran as DEATH by BE-HEADING.
4. Sentence should be carried out PUBLICALLY in accordance with Islamic law.
Now, why the use of the Koran or Islamic law to try and execute bin Laden?
First, his crimes against the US are not just against a country, but against innocent men and women. The Koran strictly forbids this.
Two, Use of the law and religion bin Laden so adamantly proclaims as his guide to his actions will make the rest of his organization think twice about any further acts. Reason being as execution in this manner does not allow one into Paradise, which the terrorist believe their actions guarantee.
Execution of the sentence, be-heading, should be done in public in front of a mosque, as is directed in the Koran.
We have to fight this war with the same weapons and beliefs that the terrorists use to justify their actions. Only in this way can win defeat their fanaticism.
This type of action has been used in the past. During the Phillipine Insurrection after the Spanish-American War, Col. John J. Pershing used the threat of spattering of pigs blood and burial in pigskin to bring the Imams and rebelious tribes under control. The tactic worked so much so that Pershing was made an honorary cheiftan.
I could be wrong, but I do't think so.

Man finds human penis in bottle of fruit punch
Police don't know if crime is involved
By Tillie Fong, News Staff Writer
COMMERCE CITY -- Police say a man found a penis Thursday in a bottled drink he purchased at a grocery store.
"For us, it's a mystery," said Elaine Rowe, spokeswoman for Commerce City police.
"We don't know if there is a crime involved. This could be a fraud, mutilation or attempted homicide."
Thursday morning, Juan Sanchez-Marchez, 41, a machine operator at Foothills Mail and Supply, was at work, taking his usual sips from a 20-ounce bottle of Ora Potency Fruit Punch.
After he had downed about two-thirds of the bottle, he found something in the opaque red drink.
He called over his 16-year-old son, Manuel, who also works at the shop. His boss told him that it looked like a penis and to report it to the police.
A pathologist with the Adams County coroner's office determined it was a 3-inch segment of human penis. It was cleanly cut at the base.
Authorities do not know whether the body part came from an adult or juvenile, or whether it had been taken from a cadaver or a living person.
A DNA test will be conducted on the penis, in case it may be related to an ongoing Adams County investigation where various body parts, including a head and part of a leg, have been found but not identified.
The Ora Potency Fruit Punch comes in a clear glass bottle with a label.
Sanchez-Marchez said the top was intact when he opened it.
"It's a very hard top to get off," he said.
Police do not believe that Sanchez-Marchez put the penis in the bottle.
"He's a very credible witness," Rowe said.
The drink was purchased Wednesday from the King Soopers at 6040 E. 65th Ave.
Sanchez-Marchez bought six bottles. Nothing was found in the others.
The product has been taken off the shelves at the store and from other King Soopers in the metro area.
A King Soopers spokesperson could not be reached for comment late Friday.
Rowe said the drink was dated at least a year ago and was bottled at a plant in Pittsburgh.
"They said there was no way it could have occurred there," she said.
"It's a mystery where it came from and how it got into this bottle."
