i mean it’s hard to imagine mankind in that scenario without us having found something far larger to fight, perhaps we find hostile aliens on mars. let’s hope !.

Tell us everything we need to know about the Sunni-Shia struggle! About a future with Iran and the Gulf states fighting over the Middle East via proxies. What will happen to Israel, Kurdistan and Egypt?

Growing tired of having to do the research and thinking myself. It’s so much easier to just read a Brecher summary (and he’s better at both thinking and researching than me, I must confess).

This column has made me lazy. I need it back.

I love how people think ideology doesn’t just change, but fundamentally defines, human nature. Like if the LRA weren’t Christian, or were *real* Christians, then they wouldn’t be killers. Ha! Yeah, and if the Irish Catholics were Hindus and the Protestants were Secular Humanists but the rest of their history was the same, they would have got along fine. Ha! If you could search/replace the religion of every Jihadi on earth with the belief system of your choice, they’d lay down arms and terrorism would be over. HA HA HA!

When it comes to human nature and warfare, religion and ideology are just another way of drawing lines and saying “Their tribe is different than our tribe, let’s kill them and take their land”. If you think your ideology is peaceful, it’s because you live in a period of peace. Lucky you, but don’t go ascribing a causal role to whatever -ism is dominant in your time and place. You’ll just look silly — or be oblivious to — when the war drums start beating in the name of your -ism.

I laughed so hard, I think I peed a little. Turn off Fox and go read a history book on a little something called the Crusades. Inquisition ring a bell?

Christians – Crusades, colonization.

Jews – slaughtering the people in Canaan and desecrating their corpses after coming back from Egypt – ever read the Old Testament? Man I fantasize that the Zionist cabal in the early Soviet Union, more than half of all commissars, set about to kill tens of millions of Christians. They even recruited that old Christian Georgian-Ossetian dog named Stalin!

Muslims – from bickering tribes to empire. Then fell apart in warring caliphates, but still.

Really, monotheism. There’s something about it. But let’s not forget the Chinese empire builders, the Mongols, the Huns and the Japanese, were not monotheists. Neither were all the cannibal tribes in Africa who only stopped their constant warfare when the Britons and French forced them. So I don’t know. Maybe it’s more about the capacity and opportunity of the people involved.

And I agree: Is there any Muslim who can shoot straight? I can shoot straight. Just did it about a hundred times on my XBOX. I understand they don’t have much training, but goddamn why don’t the US helicopter in a bunch of Playstations into Pakistan or something. U.S. soldiers tell of how they just fire wildly at U.S. troops and rarely hit anything. I won’t brag, but I know that I, and pretty much anyone I know, could do better. Just AIM, for God’s sake!

And why do all those braggart would-be terrorists get caught? Blast their plans all over the internet. In their native languages, thinking the French, British and German police won’t catch them. Stupid. It would be real easy to kill soldiers and leave a message saying it is in retaliation for the occupation of Afghanistan. Pick one off safely just once in a while from a distance. Not a shooting spree like the dumb guy in France.

I’m not advocating it. But for God’s sake, their incompetence is incredible.

Look at The Zodiak Killer if you want an example of how not to get caught.

i touch pewper it makes red.

i touch pewper moar and puss comes out.

me signing off to touch pewper.

Check.

2. The U.S. is a MURDEROUS, fuct up country.. choke full of hillbilly, redneck Koch sucking, KKKorprate whore Neo-Fascist-whofuckingknows Christianists hell bent on a fundamentalist takeover of_________, blah. blah. blah.

Double check.

This kind of verbal fapping was edgy forty years ago.

When ever I read this kind of drivel normaly found in the Exiled comments section, I comfort myself in the fanatasy of one of you self loathing, wannabe heathen communists actually stuck in some shithole “Egalitarian” country ruminating about how much we suck. Heh..unlike most of you misanthropes…I have actually experienced some of the real world. You can keep it. Those of you who wouldn’t have families with cash or possess a pretty mouth would be fed to the dogs. Shot? Yeah right…you would be begging for that bullet. Too bad, they are worth more than you are . Besides..it is entertaining to make people suffer when there is nothing better to do.

Feel free to correct my typos and grammer, AEC(what ever the fuck that is). I am too lazy and stoned to bother hitting spell check.

One more thing: AMERICA![...fuck yeah.]

P. S. Bring back “Brecher”. I will even pay you bastards.

-Carry on.

Yep. The first US missionary to go over-seas, Adoniram Judson, late 18th century, went to Burma and found the hill tribes a lot more receptive than the Buddhist Burmese. I’m always surprised that US fundies don’t send more guns to their little brown Baptist brothers in Burma!

As for magic armor, pocket bibles with steel-plated covers were on sale for nervous soldiers, back in the Viet Nam days. Probably they’re on sale now, too.

After reading the article about LRA and Joseph Kony & the comments, it is my hope to learn your positions and get to know the many humorous and also ‘straight to the point” commentators.

I loved the word form/phrase I read here today (amirite) that I’ll shamelessly steal & won’t say where I got it, b/c I cannot find it again.

Am also curious about the mysterious ‘War Nerd’ & author Dolan.

It’s all one big struggle to enslave the world for God.

The LRA is simply a more authentically rustic cargo cult. Remember little Jonny and Luther Htoo in northern Myanmar, the Karen terror twins? Why, it seems Congregationalist missionaries from America messed up their ancestors’ heads long ago. Like the LRA, the Htoos also believed in magic Kevlar.

Pentecostals are just returning to their voodoo antecedents.
