"“Jesus kill Mohammed!” chanted the interpreter. “Jesus kill Mohammed!” A head emerged from a window to answer, somebody fired on the roof, and the Special Forces man directed a response from an MK-19 grenade launcher. “Boom,” remembers Humphrey. The head and the window and the wall around it disappeared. “Jesus kill Mohammed!” Another head, another shot. Boom. “Jesus kill Mohammed!” Boom. In the distance, Humphrey heard the static of AK fire and the thud of RPGs. He saw a rolling rattle of light that looked like a firefight on wheels. “Each time I go into combat I get closer to God,” DeGiulio would later say." Who are the religious fanatics here? Not much question about that! Yet someone will say that is not the case, because the two can not be compared, or that the "other" side is worse and therefore somehow justified. How stupid. Where do you find this stuff? No wonder some people's minds are confused. Thank you for proving my point and btw, I read the full article today in Harper's Magazine and it tracks with news that came out of the Air Force Academy sometime ago, as well as some other news sources depicting the movement and senior officers, including General Patreus pushing or at least backing this agenda inside the armed forces. Just because you don't want to believe it doesn't mean it is not true. May I remind you of General Boykin, of the "Our God is bigger than their God" fame? Disgusting.. The soldiers are supposedly there to protect muslim people, what the hell do they think they're doing insulting the people they're sworn to protect? It is a lie and stupid. Painting the military with a broad brush. Since I'm a Christian I don't believe that the God of the Scriptures is the same as Allah either. I'm certainly not going to be offended if they believe otherwise however. (good grief) Do people get up in the mornings and search for things that offend them? The Jews don't believe that Christ was God/Messiah...does that offend me? NO. You got proof to the contrary? This article is based on interviews with service members, are they lying? This is more than just about being offended, this is a bout a trend inside the military to push a narrow religious view by certain members of the chain of command which is an act which is against the regs since it is proselytizing within the military. Thousands of soldiers have complained about this to the chain of command and a father and son faced the discrimination inside the U.S. Air Force Academy. Furthermore it displays a specific religious view that mixes an apocalyptic/messianic view of the world with the current m... Directly from the Military Ministry website: Military Ministry’s first strategic objective is to Evangelize and Disciple Enlisted Members of the US Military. We seek to provide uniformed sons and daughters of America with an “anchor for the soul” through Jesus Christ. This process begins at the recruit Marines in prayertraining bases…boot camps…where new troops are transformed physically, mentally, and spiritually.
But wait there is more: * This year, more than 400,000 young Americans will begin their military service. * Ninety percent of enlisted recruits are aged 17 to 24 – challenging us to remain relevant and effective. * Each Sunday of the year, at the invitation of chaplains and commanders, Military Ministry conducts voluntary classes attended by more than 2500 enlisted trainees in major basic training centers. * Every week, an average of 300 basic trainees indicate decisions for Christ. Our staff also collects thousands of prayer requests from these troops. * Military Ministry also visits wounded warriors returne... His proof is that it wasn't reported on Fox Gentlemen. Why are you so surprised? This has been going on for centuries. Kindly read your history, particularly the parts dealing with the 1st. Crusade and subsequent ones. This is another one, Mr.George W. Bush inadvertently said so. But beware, even the LION HEART gave up! True, but doesn't make it right. There is no right or wrong here. Western Christian forces are occupying and killing Muslims. and have been doing so for centuries. I have yet to see any Muslim forces occupying Western countries and applying the collateral damage principle to its citizens. When Muslim forces occupied territories such as Al-Andalus, culture flourished and religious tolerance was the order of the day. This opened the way to the Renaissance in Europe and so forth............... Somewhat different to what these enlightened American soldiers are perpetrating in Iraq, Afghanistan etc. |
