No leaflets or 45 minute advance phone calls?
Why do they hold up one finger like they are some kind of football team?
They need to be careful of Obama’s loose lips.
When the Muslims were fighting the Orthodox Christian Byzantines the Roman symbol for Christ was three fingers linked together to show the trinity. Christian would sometimes hold three fingers touching (thumb, index and middle) and the rest pointed down. It meant the Trinity and the human and divine nature of Jesus (2 fingers down).
Muslims began pointing one finger up in imitation and mockery to indicate God is singular and not a Holy Trinity. So one finger up means Islam.
I just want to say this one more time, tis merely a scratch.
Oh I see. Thank you for the info.
I’ve got one finger for Islam too.
“Muslims began pointing one finger up in imitation and mockery to indicate God is singular and not a Holy Trinity. So one finger up means Islam.”
Now close your eyes and think of one political figure in the US who does this all the time. Times up. No, it is not professor Plum.
LOL! You win the internet for the day!
Obama will be sad.
“No leaflets or 45 minute advance phone calls?”
I’m trying to come up with some humorous leaflets Vlad might drop, after the bombs fall.
So Turkey blows the Russian air force out of the sky and Putin blow up a couple of flat bed trucks in response? Wow.
Russia got punched in the nose by somebody its own size yesterday and there is nothing they can do about it. Nobody is buying this psywar claptrap except loyal Putinist’s such as yourself.
Someone should tell these morons about blacktop or concrete. Every video you see over there is people driving or walking down dirt roads. Blacktop does not cost that much!
Bombing the supply lines to ISIS? About time.
"You F*#k with us we will Kick your ASS!"
Turkey should be grateful. They just got some much needed help defending their border.
“Why do they hold up one finger like they are some kind of football team?”
Three reasons (and I’m not making this up):
1) One finger = One God. Muslims hold up one finger like that as a sign of belief, a testimony, to the one God.
2) Authority. Their imams and leaders often lecture them while holding up that one finger. It’s like saying, “Pay attention. Listen to my important words!”
3) ISIS. ISIS members use it all the time. http://www.pri.org/stories/2014-09-04/isis-has-new-hand-sign-and-it-means-far-more-we-re-1
I started reading about this “one finger” think last August.
