Black Muslim US soldier is a suspect! ("10 U.S. Soldiers Hurt In Grenade Attack")
CBS News website ^ | 3-22-03 | CBS

Posted on 03/22/2003 5:18:31 PM PST by Atlas Sneezed

(CBS) Ten U.S. soldiers were injured, six or seven of them seriously, in a grenade and small arms attack at Camp Pennsylvania in northern Kuwait, reports CBS News Correspondent Mark Strassmann, who is traveling with the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division.

Strassmann said the grenades were rolled into two commanders' tents at the camp. When officers ran from the tents, they were hit by small arms fire.

"From our reports it appears that a terrorist penetrated Camp Pennsylvania, one or more terrorists threw two hand grenades into a tent," said George Heath, spokesman at Fort Campbell, home base of the 101st.

Strassman said three suspects were being held for questioning, two Kuwaitis who served a translators and an American soldier described as a black Muslim.

The injured soldiers were rushed to a field hospital but military officials had no word on their conditions, Lt. Cmdr. Charles Owens said from Camp As Sayliyah in Qatar.

The military did not identify the unit of the 101st that was in the camp but said it had been in Kuwait for about one week. Most of the division has entered southern Iraq.

Separately, Strassmann reported, an Iraqi rocket fired at U.S. forces in Kuwait was destroyed by Patriot missiles launched from nearby Camp New Jersey.

The terror and missile attack came as the U.S. assault on Iraq gained steam. American and British forces besieged the southern city of Basra and pounded Baghdad with impunity. But tough fighting loomed for coalition troops as they pressed deeper into Iraq.

You're actually posting a post that somebody posted to me as your proof that I called Islam a bloody cult?

You're quite insane.

Heh, heh! Now you have been gonged! I didn't realize this was the Gong Show. But that would account for some of the class acts we see around here. Thank God they are the vast minority.

Thanks. :-) It's just my little laugh at myself. I know a lot of facts; a lifetime of avid reading.

I have FOX on now; have had for a while now.

The anti-Muslim rhetoric gets pretty damn annoying.

Fact: No organized religion is free of atrocities committed by individuals or groups of individuals in the name of said religion.

Fact: Religion does not fly planes, pull triggers, nor throw hand grenades. People do. Cf. "guns do not kill people, people do."


Both your fact are correct. However would that mean that you would also defend a religion such as Christian Identity?

Good question. How many muslims should have access to ICBM's and other WMD while they wear our uniforms?

It's in the article on the link.......I think it may be an even longer version of this post:

Look at this:

And yet Siddiqi also thinks Muslims enjoy advantages undreamt of in Muhammad's day or in any other society than today's United States. For one thing, Americans are hungry for the Islamist message, which "pinpoints the shortcoming of capitalism, elaborates the fallacies of democracy, [and] exposes the devastating consequences of the liberal lifestyle." For another, the United States permits Islamists to pursue their political agenda in an entirely legal fashion and without ever challenging the existing order. Indeed, precisely because the Constitution guarantees complete government neutrality toward religion, the system can be used to further Islamist aims. Democratic means are at hand for developing an active and persistent lobby, cultivating politicians, and electing Muslim representatives. Nearly a million legal immigrants arrive in the country each year, plus many more through the long coastlines and porous land borders. The courts are an all-important resource, and have already proved their worth in winning concession after concession from American corporations and public authorities.

Amazing. This is one of the scariest things I've read in a LONG time.

"I made no claim that ALL muslims are liars, sir."

At any rate, the Koran names you and I as targets for deception, oppression, forced conversion or murder. No two ways about it.

As I said...you are a liar.

Like I said, KEEP posting those. They prove you're a fraud.

We were discussing religion as it relates to the law.

Now, I asked you once again, where does it show I bashed Islam as a bloody cult?

(You really ARE obsessed with me, aren't you?)

I wonder if he would be annoyed by anti-Thuggee rhetoric? Perhaps he is just plain old afraid of what might happen to him or this website in response to offending the sweet and gentle religion of peace. Fear is, I suppose, a difficult thing to deal with, but I wouldn't know.

Let me guess, white boy?

It's MY nation, too; what is MY culture is different from yours?

ME: At any rate, the Koran names you and I as targets for deception, oppression, forced conversion or murder. No two ways about it.

Your jump from an observation about the Koran to a claim about the behavior of ALL muslims is an irrationality, sir. No two ways about that either.

Your gratuitous reassertion that I am a liar, based upon your first fallacious jump, is another irrationality.

I'm afraid I cannot help you tonight, Luis. Perhaps yet another cerveza might do the trick.

Ummmmmmmmmm ... the Thuggees were Indian, worshipped Kali ( Kali-Ma ) and weren't Muslims. We get out English word " thug " from this group, who were bloodthirsty muggers/murderers, who would be riviled, by all here, IF this cult still existed; which it doesn't.
