Perhaps the West's affinity with oil and Israel needs a rethink. A little 10,000 year winter might do the middle east the world of good. Civilised Muslims and Israel can be evacuated in time... say 6 months to a year.....and I'm sure our nerds can find a way to use radioactive oil.

It is illegal under the laws of war to use WP for any purpose other than illumination. I'm not justifying what ISIS did, just pointing out the parallels.

If you shoot someone who's raping a family member of yours, is that the same as you shooting someone because they bumped into you? There's clearly a distinction but some prefer to have their heads in the sand :rolleyes:

ireland.man wrote: » "They are, after all, just mis understood freedom fighters I guess." You said this. Why would you imagine this idiotic drivel would constitute a reasoned reply to anything on this thread? Has anyone used the term 'freedom fighters' in reference to ISIS? Has anyone praised, complimented or excused the crimes of ISIS?
'Jordan's response will be earth-shattering'
Jordan will execute an Iraqi woman on death row over a failed bombing after having vowed to avenge the murder of a Jordanian pilot by Islamic State jihadists, an official said. "The sentence of death pending on... Iraqi Sajida al-Rishawi will be carried out at dawn," the security official said on Tuesday, speaking on condition of anonymity. Jordanian authorities are reportedly planning to execute five other al-Qaeda operatives being held along with al-Rishawi.

Yeah, because Britain and the US only get involved in the Middle East out of humanitarian concerns. :rolleyes: Let's condemn ISIS because they behead people but hey there's money to be made from arms sales to Saudi Arabia!!! ISIS are scum all right, but nowhere near this level of evil.]

ireland.man wrote: » Because he didn't try to pin disgusting claims on anyone on this thread like you did. 'Freedom fighters'......... No-one here thinks ISIS is anything but scum. But some of us think the act of burning someone to death is innately horrible and not because of who's doing it. We condemn America, Israel, Britain, the LRA, ISIS and the IRA for their crimes against civilians but some posters here only get upset when certain groups commit heinous acts. Fcuking crocodile tears from hypocrites.
