| TheRealMafoo said: Sorry to keep posting these things, but.... "It could endanger troops and it could endanger the overall effort," Gen. Petraeus said in an interview. "It is precisely the kind of action the Taliban uses and could cause significant problems. Not just here, but everywhere in the world we are engaged with the Islamic community." Is from that article linked above. I am sorry, we really have things backwards here. We have a group of stupid people in Florida, who due to not liking a Mosque going up in NY, chose to burn some books. BFD, no one gets hurt, and some books go poof. Now, in retaliation to this, we think some people around the world are going to take this information, and start killing people with it. So, one group burns books, and one group murders people, and we are apologetic about the morons in Florida? This is like someone sticking there tong out at someone, and getting there face blown off for it, and taking the side of the guy who pulled the trigger. If burning a book makes someone want to kill, I say bring it. |
You're missing the entire point. They have the right to do it but it's tasteless, unnecessary, hate-filled, and absolutely represents the exact opposite of what their own religious figure, Jesus, preached to the masses.
I won't back anyone whose motives are filled with intolerance and hate, which these people obviously live by (otherwise I think they would have refrained from making those "Islam is of the devil" t-shirts).
Besides, it's hard to claim that they're doing anything because of the mosque... after all, they printed up those t-shirts last year. It's pretty apparent they don't like Muslims for being Muslim, which is absolutely fucking ridiculous and should not be supported by anyone with a brain.
