Philippines bombed!

[TwinCrier]

ZAMBOANGA, Philippines, Oct. 17 —  [font="TIMES NEW ROMAN, GEORGIA, TIMES"]Bombs ripped through the main shopping district of a mostly Christian city in an area of the southern Philippines at the heart of Muslim insurgency on Thursday, killing six and wounding about 150.  [/font]

[font="TIMES NEW ROMAN, GEORGIA, TIMES"]The region is home to most of the four million Muslim minority in an overwhelmingly Christian country of 76 million.[/font]

I wonder how many more bombing there has to be before someone else joins Tony Blair and supports the USA and the fight against these Muslim wackos.

So it's only Muslims that are causing terrorism? Are we now declaring war only on terrorists of a certain religious creed?

It's my belief that we would willing declare war on anyone that knocks our buildings down or blows up or shoots our people it's just so far they are all Muslims. Do you think theres a connection?

Well, Al-Qaeda is Islamic, but we've only tied them to a certain number of terrorist attacks. Several others have no one claiming responsibility as of yet.
I simply take issue with the jump to the conclusion that the terrorists are Muslim, without sufficient evidence to prove that.

I feel the same way, but i feel it will never stop. And that makes me sick. Anyone that can kill someone just makes me so mad.

 

[Blessed-one]

I think I see a pattern here.......

 

[Lacmeh]

Hm, forgetting, Christians shooting abortion doctors, Forgetting Christians bombing in Ireland and North Ireland, Christians bombing in North Spain, Christians bombing in France, Christian bombing in USA, do I see a pattern here?

 

[eldermike]

Wolseley,

Let me guess........"d"? I think I have it right. Bob the builder almost threw me, that was a trick you threw in, but I caught it.

I have heard it said that the book of revelations tells the story of the last and final crusade .

The battle between christendom and islam for the holy city of jerusalem , and it's looking every bit that way , isn't it .
I guess we'll have to wait and see .

With one major difference: when the events you list took place, you didn't see day-long riotous celebrations in the streets by ecstatically joyful Christians merrily rejoicing that the killings took place.

When the 9/11 attacks took place (as well as some others) you saw thousands of Muslims dancing in the streets in Pakistan, Indonesia, Iraq, the Gaza Strip, and the West Bank, and to a somewhat lesser extent, in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.

Christians, as a rule, usually don't hate their enemies enough to hold city-wide parties when one of their misguided members kills a lot of people. Many Muslims, unfortunately, do.

There is much wisdom in Proverbs. Dancing in the street is not a good idea.

PROVERBS 24:17,18 17- Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth: 18- Lest the Lord see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
