Dronie Montulo yesterday weeps over the box carrying the head of brother Lemuel, who officials fear is still being held captive by the rebels.

August 23, 2002 -- WASHINGTON - The grisly beheading of two Christian missionaries by Muslim fanatics in the Philippines has prompted the Pentagon to consider renewing combat-training missions to help crush Islamic rebels linked to Osama bin Laden, The Post has learned.

It's late, but is this as screwed up as I think it is?

I hope the Philipino's take a cue from the Israelis and torch the homes of these scumbags - then exile their family members to a boat and shove them out into the Pacific.

"This is what happens to those who don't believe in Allah," one note said. "This is part of our jihad."

Coming soon, to a neighborhood near you.

Here's a happy thought from Middle East expert Daniel Pipes:

Islamists constitute a small but significant minority of Muslims, perhaps 10 to 15 per cent of the population. Many of them are peaceable in apearance, but they all must be considered potential killers.

How does 400,000 to 800,000 -- in our country -- potential killers sound?

You ought to know that these anti-American demonstrators are in a distinct minority. About 80% of Filipinos support the US deployment. A leftist "fact finding" organization went to Zamboanga City to protest the US presence and were ridden out on a rail by the locals. Filipino civilians in Basilan begged the American troops to stay when they were leaving. And why not?

Why would any sane person prefer homicidal Muslims to fairly normal Americans? Well the Left would, but they hardly qualify as sane.

That 10% to 15% figure scares the bejeezus out of me. I can't imagine how ordinary Americans could sleep at night in a region like Detroit, with its large -- and growing -- Muslim population.

"The horrific slayings were a major embarrassment to the Filipino government"

Muslims, on the other hand, either cheered or were silent, confirming that their culture is barbaric, not peaceful.

I sure hope they don't hold his headless body captive for too long. I'm sure his head misses it.

So are you saying that this is a war against Islam and not terrorism? And you do not differenciate between the two? What about what this country is run on with freedom of religion. I hope and pray most people in here do not feel this way. I suggest you all look into Islam and what the Quaran says instead of what CNN, FOX, The New York Times, and The Washington Posts says.

Read the Quaran and feel free to question anything you read. But you cannot say that the Quaran teaches hate, people teach hate. I can go on for a while, but I know it would not do any good to some of you. You see what your eyes see, and you feel what your heart tells you! Just as every other human being in this world sees and feels. AND YES PEOPLE, like it or not, people in the Middle East are human beings also.

You spew just as much hate and venom as the other side does and we are on a continuous circle of hate. It is a shame now that I have to read that we need to get rid of Muslims because everyone of them is a potential killer.

NEWS FLASH PEOPLE:

You can never estinguish the light of Islam. Call it what you want and say the things you want to say. When you talk about it the way you do, just understand you hurt yourself more than you hurt Islam or those you attack and want to destroy.

I am an American Muslim, 30 years old, WHITE ... so I deserve to die and am a traitor all of the sudden?

I love this country more than you can understand. When I say God Bless America, I mean it... when I say In God I trust, I mean it. I would rather us say God Bless Humanity and get us all involved!

I pray that we can turn this thing around here in this great country of ours with the freedoms we have left. God Bless America let's drink!! I drove through Las Vegas a while back God Bless America come gamble!!

I say God Bless America, let's have a respect for God who deserves our utmost respect!! Stop thinking we are all-powerful and give it to the only One who is the Most-Powerful.

If you have any legitimate questions or concerns and would like to ask please feel free to continue this conversation. I just ask that you do not attack or say anything hateful. Not because it will hurt me but because it may only hurt you in the hereafter. And that my friends is what lasts forever.

Depends - maybe, maybe not.

What the Muslims in the USA don't seem to realize is that the rest of the American public isn't very impressed with the US Muslim reaction (or lack thereof) to Muslim atrocities here and around the world.

Any more Muslim attacks in the US will probably spell the end of religious tolerance for Islam here. Most Americans would have no problem with the concept of throwing the (Muslim) baby out with the bathwater. What part of that don't the Americam Muslims understand?

We are glad to have you participating in this discussion, and we pray for your conversion. As the holy prophet Isa said, "if the light that is in you be darkness, how great is that darkness!"

Meanwhile, you've stepped into the middle of an ideological struggle here in the USA. Our public life and discourse is dominated by secular humanism, an ideology that recognizes no deity other than The State, and no morality other than what feels good. Sincere Christians find secular humanism, with its lewdness and contempt for God, very offensive. Please do us the courtesy of not confusing Christianity with secular humanism. I assure you, many people on this forum revile the merchants of immorality and death (Planned Parenthood, the abortion industry, the porn industry, etc.) as much as any honest muslim must.

Nope. I had to read it a couple of times myself too. Nice work out of Reuters again.
