"Light crosses", not "burn crosses".

[Nogbad]

And when the KKK burns crosses and lynches Black people,
that quite specifically points to a "Christian" orientation.
Broad-brushing the entire membership of Christianity is absurd
as is broad brushing the entire membership of "Islam"
as "inspiring" of the acts of this particular group of people.

What percentage of the Christian population supports cross burning?

What percentage of the Moslem population supports Bin Laden?

It was their intention to kill a Jewish American. 9/11, this, dancing in the streets in the Middle East on 9/11. Pat Robertson is right. Islam is mayhem and violence.

SUNNYUSA WROTE: "I don't want to hear one stinking liberal whining about how we must embrace these people!!!"

We need to get the URL(s) for the video from Texaggie79 and ALL of us email it to ALL Senators and Representatives!!!---But DON'T TELL THEM what it takes you to.

Maybe...just MAYBE...they'll get OFF their rear ends and get ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS OUT of the U.S.!!!!!! (Particularly the ARAB ones!!!)

We might ought to email it to BUSH while we're at it! Maybe he will FINALLY see the light that Islam is NOT a peaceful religion...The Koran TELLS Muslims to KILL CHRISTIANS AND JEWS!!

GET THEM OUT OF OUR COUNTRY---NOW!!!!!!!

Just please tell me why there has not been one muslim leader or muslim cleric unequivocally condemn the acts of terrorists which the terrorists themselves claim to perpetrate in the name of islam? Where are their peace loving faces on the nightly news? Where are the immams of mecca exorting the mass of circling idiots to be peaceful? Where are the saudi bankrollers withdrawing their funds from terrorist organizations? I could go on but I am sure even you get the idea----ISLAM IS EVIL AND MUST BE ERADICATED!

Very well said. Huge bump

The Permissibility of Moving/Transporting the Corpses/Remains of Unbelievers

There are two positions that have been reported in this regard. The first is that of the rightly guided caliph, Abu Bakr, may Allah Most High be well pleased with him. In his book "Assunan Al Kubra", Imam Bayhaki states: "Chapter on what has been reported about the moving of the heads of unbelievers: Amr Ibn El'aas and Sharhabeel Ibn Hassana dispatched Uqba to deliver the head of Yunak, the Patriarch of Damascus, to the caliph Abu Bakr. "

"When the head was delivered to the caliph, Abu Bakr showed his displeasure. Uqba responded to this by saying: " Oh Successor of the Prophet of Allah, peace be upon him, but they do the same with us! (decapitate Muslims). Abu Bakr rebuffed Uqba's argument by saying: 'Then should we take example in the methods of the Romans and the Persians? There is no need for you to bring me this head; informing me through correspondence will suffice.'"

Muawiyah Ibn Khadeej and Abd Al Kareem Al Jazari have also reported the position of Abu Bakr. Al Zahri has stated the position of Abu Bakr and has stated that no head was ever delivered to the Prophet, peace be upon him, in Medina.

The second, and more accurate, position confirms the permissibility of moving the remains of unbelievers. Ibn Jarir reported in his encyclopaedic work on history: "Men from Bani Makhzoom reported that Ibn Abbas said: " (on the battlefield of Badr) Abu Jahl (the wounded chieftain of the unbelievers) told me: ' You shepherd, you have risen to a lofty but difficult position.' I ripped his head off and took it to the Prophet, peace be upon him, and said: 'Oh Prophet of Allah, this is the head of enemy of Allah, Abu Jahl.' The Prophet, peace be upon him, was pleased and said: 'All praise be to Allah! there is no god other than Him."
This story has also been related by Imam Ibn Hajar, and reported by Ishaq and Al Hakam.

Imam Al Dahabi related the following story: "Ibn Zubair said: 'Jarjeer who led an army of 120,000 attacked us in the province of Nuba (Africa). We were only 20,000. At first, the men consulted with our commander, Ibn Abi Srah who went into his tent to make a decision. During this time, I glanced from afar the head of Jarjeer; he was behind his troops and was shaded by two concubines who protected him from the sun with the feathers of an ostrich. I (asked) our commander (to make an attempt) at Jarjeer. He accepted and I chose thirty cavalrymen to join me.' I told them to protect my back; I broke through enemy lines and appeared in front of Jarjeer. At first, Jarjeer and his entourage thought I was a messenger, but when he realized I was after him, Jarjeer attempted to run. I caught up with him, decapitated him and placed his head on top of my spear. I yelled 'Allah u Akbar!' and the Muslims attacked as the enemy collapsed and fled."

Yusuf Al Hanafi has reported that: "Abd Allah Al Daylami approached the Prophet, peace be upon him, with the head of Al Aswad Al Ansi the Liar. We brought the head from Yemen so that the Prophet would witness (a symbol of) the victory of the Muslims." Yusuf Al Hanafi comments on this by saying: " These examples confirm the permissibility of moving the heads of the unbelievers from country to country so that people may know the defeat that befalls (those who fight against Allah and His Prophet). " And Allah says: "And let a party of the believers witness their punishment." [Quran 24:2]

Al Hanafi continues: "Abu Bakr's displeasure (with being presented with the head of the unbelieving chieftain) was a result of his own judgement, at that time, that such a move was unnecessary. Battlefield commanders, such as Yazeed Ibn Abi Sufyan and Uqba Ibn Amer, did not bewrong this because they viewed it as giving glory to the Religion of Allah and humiliating to the infidels. Hence, the decision on such a matter is related to the judgements of the scholars who must decide if such a move is beneficial at that particular time. They must also decide against it if they feel it is unnecessary."

Imam Shawkani says in his book Asayl Al Jarar: "As for those who show their displeasure with this, I say if carrying the heads of the enemy strengthens the hearts of the Muslims or weakens the unbelievers, then there is no objection to such a move. On the contrary, it is something good. Moreover, the fact that unbelievers are deemed unclean (Najis) by Divine Law, does not nullify the permissibility of moving the remains of the unbelievers during times of war; after all, strengthening the army of Islam and terrorizing the armies of the enemy is an unquestionable goal of Divine Law. The permissibility is also confirmed by the fact that this happened during the time of the companions."

After reviewing the above, we follow the righteous position of Imam Shawkani who qualifies the moving of enemy remains during time of war with the goal of strengthening the Muslim army and terrorizing the armies of the unbelievers. This position explains the position of the Prophet, peace be upon him, who did not allow this to happen during normal (non-combat) times. Hence, the evidence that confirms the permissibility of this during times of war is substantially greater that the evidence against.

And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me. Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey. And I took the little book out of the angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.********** Is this passage from Revelations referring to the Qur'an?

It's probably a reference to the little book of PC.

The only way I remember is that my Dad is a yellow-dog Democrat. He disagrees with the Democrats on issues such as abortion, gays in the military and every election votes a straight Democratic ticket. Stupidest thing I have ever seen him do.

I had wondered about the 911 video as well. Thanks for the info. Let me know if you hear anything about this tape being available.

Yes, but if they have terrorists in their midst and do nothing to get rid of them and sometimes contribute MONEY to their causes, guess what? 6 of one and half a dozen of the other as my grandma used to say.
