Afghan jihad update: a dangerous school principal has been gunned down by the heroic mujahedin! From The MediaLine, with thanks to Kemaste:
A school principal was shot to death on Wednesday morning, a day after a district chief was gunned down in Afghanistan’s Kandahar region, a government spokesman said on Wednesday.He said the attackers were armed men from the Taliban, according to Reuters.
The head of the Arghandab district was shot in a mosque on Tuesday.
Shot in a mosque? Wouldn't the Taliban consider that sacrilege? No. If they considered him an enemy, they probably had consigned him to the ranks of the hypocrites or apostates. Thus his presence in the mosque, not their shooting him there, was to them the sacrilege. Their shooting him there was to them a great act of devotion to Allah, since Islamic law mandates death for such people.
Hey Islam: your mosques are become shooting galleries. Aren't you proud.
I am sure that CAIR will have some strong words for the Taliban on this matter.
Imagine the outcry if it was an Infidel Amiriki that shot the dude in a Mosque.
I haven't seen it in print, but supposedly there is some kind of righteous outcry going up (when is there ever isn't?}
This from an Australian TV Program
Report: U.S. Soldiers Burnt Bodies of Captured Taliban Fighters
This news on Afghanistan - an Australian TV program has aired footage of U.S. soldiers burning the bodies of two dead Taliban fighters. The program also aired footage of a U.S. Army psy-ops unit caught on tape broadcasting news of the burning to local residents. The message read : "You allowed your fighters to be laid down facing west and burnt. You are too scared to retrieve their bodies. This just proves you are the lady boys we always believed you to be... You attack and run away like women. You call yourself Taliban but you are a disgrace to the Muslim religion, and you bring shame upon your family. Come and fight like men instead of the cowardly dogs you are." On Wednesday the Pentagon announced it would investigate the incident.
Why should, why would our Pentagon "investigate", I think that the tactics are admirable, put the cowards to shame, throw water on the fires of Jihad. If we can't fight fire with a fire (like a backfire) then let's throw water on the fire, call them what they are, skulking cowards
Someone said that these mujahideen Jihadis aren't cowards, but I think that they are, it is only peer pressure, and a religiously induced drug state, that accounts for their fanaticism. If anything, such taunting will only inspire them to become more reckless, so they can "prove" their manhood.
The Achilles heel of the Arab-Islamic identity ideology is vainglorious pride, the cult of manhood, the need to save face and be redeemed in front of enemies and tribe. The soft spot in the armor of Islam is pride, they can't tolerate being humiliated (as they define humiliation), and when humiliated they MUST redeem their manhood and pride.
RE: Psy-Ops
Excellant, that is what is needed to strike fear into them as they assume we won't fight. They have assumed that we would not fight and the side the underestimates the enemy always loses.
Also, I can't help but be delighted if it also gives "liberals" heartburn in the process.
But in all seriousness, a new must read book is out: "Death to America: The Unreported Battle of Iraq" by Jamie Glazov. Chronicles Iraq and al Qaeda, WMD moved to Syria, and most importantly,
Russian's (the "evil empire") involvment is more than we think.
We are lying to ourselves if anyone thinks the Cold War is over. It has jusr gone "underground"
But sadly, the real tragedy is the our news media ignores all the facts and it is "politics as usual"

learjet0450 said that this si good that it will put fear in these terrorists... that they thought we wouldnt fight, and that is the trouble Lear, they dont think we will fight. If you read the beginnings of mohammad this is exactly what happened then, the caravans were raided and Mohammad waited to see if anyone would do anything, all the time his numbers grew, then he raided a jewish town, and once again waited to see if other towns would retaliate and no one did. And so their numbers kept growing all the time, eventually giving Mohammad an army enough to take over countries, an guess what, the same thing is happening today,,no one retaliated in the beginning and now they are a force once again to follow out what the Quran says.. the time is almost right for them...
