Sarman, where is that post by Lazarre you claim to have quoted from? Still can't find it, (and I doubt you can either....)

Are look in the past decade or two. I think you would much happier if the killing were done in the name of freedom.
Hawk, we are in disagreement, you see the cup half empty I see it half full.


Disagreement? Why not look at hundreds of years of history?? Why not thousands of years?? People have been killing one another throughout our recorded history (and quite likely much longer.. ;0)

But now Muslims are killing Muslims in the name of Allah, not just we western "infidels". You have a civil war formenting, not just in Iraq, but throughout the Muslim world, between moderates and militants. You may not want to judge them, but you'd better anticipate that, if you oppose the militants, they are going to judge you...

If you can't even bring yourself to condemn that religiously motivated rape (previously described), then just shut your trap. If you can't judge and condemn the violence perpetrated by members of your own faith, what right can you possibly have to criticize the violence being perpetrated by others?
