Are you seriously suggesting you can't tell the difference between a suicide bomber and someone who, say, dives into a frozen river to save a drowning child? Oh, come now! :roll: We both know that you do not think that I was. Suicide bombing has to wait for the invention of modern explosives (where...

The morality in it is the destruction of the enemies of Western civilization. Defending you family and your people. Defending the apotheosis of civilization from heathens. As Jesus, the supreme warrior said, "I did not come to bring peace, I've brought the sword" (Matthew 10:34), or less ...

What would be the point of remembering? That both George Wallace and Barack Obama both ran as Democrats would give you no insight into the politics of either of them. Oh, I disagree. I think you learn a very great deal by staying alert to the history there. But see if you agree: https://www.youtube...

What differentiated the violence committed by Muslims from that committed by the West in the Middle-East is that Western violence is in the service of defeating Islamism and vanguarding Western civilization, Islamists by contrast pursue Islamic society. Western civilization is something considerabl...

Let me get this right - you consider the US motives as Christian directed right? Just because some of the US politicians and military are 'Christian' doesnt mean they are claiming it is Christian inspired or motivated. They would have a hard time finding direction from Christ on such matters - not ...

They also want you to forget that the party of slavery, the KKK and segregation was the "liberal" pack, i.e. the Democrats. What would be the point of remembering? That both George Wallace and Barack Obama both ran as Democrats would give you no insight into the politics of either of them.

75% of that count comes from a single incident twenty-two years ago, the Oklahoma City bombing. Islamists are currently banging that number off every ten days. Islamism is a significantly more serious problem. What counts as 'Islamism' if we are counting? For example, if one Muslim kills another Mu...

]The religious ideology driving force i am talking about here is Islam. Semi-trailers\cars\knives\IEDs etc. used by ISLAMISTS. Come back when you comprehend logic. You are still being strangely restrictive with that list of weapons. Is your argument that it is a religious requirement for ISLAMIST t...

There ought be a technical term for this sort of argument, where you request examples but then place artificially narrow stipulations on the sort of answer you would accept. We are talking about religious ideology being the driving force here dickhead. Then why be so specific? Why do examples have ...

Me: Is there some reason why you don't give the name? Frankly? Amusement. It's fun to see people guess. I don't understand. You wrote: If you've lived in a culture where Islam is given free reign, then believe me, you have a very different perspective on what Islam is and does, and what happens to ...

Oh ok - could you point out the ones that drive semi-trailers through crowds of innocent people? ..and those that intentionally target children with IEDs? There ought be a technical term for this sort of argument, where you request examples but then place artificially narrow stipulations on the sor...

Where did - or do - you live?

If you think he made a mistake on one example, which is certainly unproven and based only on your comment, why do you automatically assume everything he said is probably a mistake. That's prejudicial thinking at best. I also pointed out that the following paragraph was also misleading. But we can g...

Sorry, you're just nitpicking and not considering the totality of what Williams is saying, which is 100% correct! It serves as an example - if Williams didn't bother to research that claim, why would we assume he has taken the trouble over anything else? I only picked that one out because it concer...
