How many Americans have died in Afganistan so that our freedom would be protected and thrive?

****ing hell. The US needs to make a threat.

That man should be acquitted. All fundamentalist muslim laws will be stricken. If these demands are not met, we will leave you to the dogs.

If he weighs less than a duck, then he should float, and therefore is made of wood and he must be a witch......

Though, we could **** them over hardcore. Offer to take any woman who feels "Oppressed" out of the country and set them up in america with the money we would be spending on the war.

It is my understanding that according to Islamic law.
There is no converting from Islam. And for those that do, the penalty is death.

Inasmuch as Afghanistan has always been and probably will always be an Islamic state.
So this hardly surprises me.

What we need to understand is we cannot apply our standards and way of thinking and how our culture is to over there. It just doesnt fit.

Different culture, different way of thinking.

As much as we cant understand how they think the way they do. They probably cant understand how we think.

Our right side up is their upside down. and vise verce

They better get their culture to the current, 21st, century instead of the 16th or so.

I agree, but it still doesn't justify a man being put to death for a different religion. Even if we cannot do anything about it.

And you'll still have Islamic religion, face it, it will never go away. Neither will the mass of misguided people willing to die because their god told them to.

Why?

Like I said. They see our culture as being just as backwards and wrong as we see theirs

Because we stopped being medieval few hundred years ago.
Don't you see any similarities between the middle east and europe over couple of hundred years ago? I can find too many similarities.
Their culture has NOT progressed.

Well said, Drediock!

I never thought I'd hear that from any American, let alone one on this BBS! And so true. If ever you are here in Limeyland, I'd like to buy you dinner, and would extend the same offer to any other American on this board who can step back and see the big picture as Drediock has. ^ I'm not worried about the expense - I believe it will happen so rarely that I can well afford it!

Islam is the problem.

Does the Koran stipulate that non-muslims must be killed? When the Koran was written, were its authors aware of any other faith such as Christianity?
