Hang the Son of a Bitch from his neck until he is dead!

Bump for later

It'll be interesting to see if the networks report this story accurately, and thoroughly.

[Davea]

The aricle from CBS appears to be sanitized now. No mention that he was a Muslim as when you originally posted the article. If someone has already pointed this out my apologies. Here's how it reads now

"Three suspects were being held for questioning: two Kuwaitis who served as translators and an American soldier described as an engineering sergeant."

[XHogPilot]

CBS website (original link) has now purged the "Moslim" ID of the perp.
Heard repeatedly on CNBC Radio (NBC owned) the same original comment, the US Army Sgt, a Moslim, had was captured immediately after the attack, and confessed to his participation. He had wounded himself with one of the exploding grenades and was found with one more (the last of 4 missing) grenade hidden in his gas-mask bag.

We hear about all of the Muslims who abhor terrorist violence but we only hear about them from non-Muslim apologists. One reason Muslims are not more organized and vocal against the violence of their brethren is their own fear of being killed by those brethren. That is a fact confirmed by many fearful Muslims.

Islam is a religion dangerous to non-Muslims. There are centuries of proof. Only politically correct Americans disregard the historical truth in their make-believe fantasy world where everyone sings Kum-Bay-Ya by the campfire. Islam is not a religion of peace. The evidence is overwhelming.

Americans keep having to fight all these overseas wars because we mentally construct a world that does not exist and then regularly suffer terribly for our foolishness.

US networks have spiked fact that suspect is a muslim. UK network, SkyNews, has a detailed report that notes that he is an adherent to the "religion of peace" and that he had been "acting weird" for a few days.

This is the "elephant in the closet" subject that no one in the media will touch. I hope they will finally address this issue. Disgusting!!! I pray for the soldiers that were victims of this cowardly act, that they have a speedy recovery.

Why in hell are we using foreign interpreters? We have military language schools that should have trained enuf Arabic speakers by now that we can use overseas.

[Abar]

For G-d's sake people, WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My co-worker's son is in the 101st and my co-worker is surely feeling damn sick right now from worry.

[Atlas Sneezed]

ABC radio just reported:

"Attack is now a criminal matter, not a terroristic attack"

No mention of the US soldier's race or religious persuasion.

[Right_in_Virginia]

...and an American soldier described as a black Muslim.

I'm sure you know this ...but, is's worth repeating: this description has been removed from the CBS website.

[Ben Bolt]

bump to refer on the morrow .

[Pining_4_TX]

I've been watching MSNBC most of the evening, and they have not once mentioned that the suspect soldier was a Muslim.

[wardaddy]

Just got through watching FOX.

Obvioulsy a black Muslim...whether American born or a West African born immigrant I couldn't say.

He is with an engineering attachment with the 101st.

Of the wounded several looked very serious. One has died sadly. Several others seriously wounded.

The perp was striking out at brigade leaders.

One of the wounded was a woman (so much for no women in combat eh?)

He appeared to be striking out in some misguided interpretation of his religious convictions.

ALL THAT ACCORDING TO A TIME REPORTER ON THE SCENE WHO WAS IN THE TENT WITH THE WOMAN WHO WAS INJURED BY FRAGMENTS>

Having these loons in our combat units is idiocy...PC run amok as usual as costing lives sadly.

Arghhhhhhhh!

What is Taqiyah?

He who disbelieves in Allah after his belief in Him, (is the liar) except he who is compelled while his heart remains steadfast with the faith (has nothing worry). But who opens his breast for infidelity; on these is wrath of Allah, and for them is a great torment.
--Qur’an, Surah 16 (an‑Nahl), verse 100

This verse of the Qur’an refers to the incident when 'Ammar bin Yasir (May Allah be pleased with both) had to utter some words against Islam to save himself from the Quraishite infidels.

The Qur'an clearly allows hiding one 's true faith when one is in danger of one's life. This rule is called taqiyah.

Question 1: What is the meaning of "Taqiyah"?
Answer: Its literal meaning is to safeguard; to defend; to fear; piety (because it saves one from the displeasure of Allah).

Question 2: What is its significance in Islamic termi­nology?
Answer: In Islamic terminology it means "to save life, honour. or property (either one's own or of other be­lievers) by hiding one's belief or religion".

I imagine the same rule would apply for a Muslim who hides his jihad sympathies.

[Michael2001]

Why do we allow Muslims in the US military? This was bound to happen.

I pray now for the victims and their families but this guy should never have been allowed to join the military. Islam is not a religion of peace.

Did translator shortage backfire? Inadequate preparation of Arabic-language interrogators
