Did you guys catch this? Richard Reid Shoe bomber...

Post by Adex_Xeda »

Did you guys happen to catch the judge's closing statement to Richard Reid as he was being sentanced?

Reid had said he was guilty of trying to blow up passenger plane by lighting his plastic explosive laced shoe. He said he was a soldier of Islam fighting a war against the Americans etc.

Anyway the Judge would have none of it and made a quite a firebrand of a response.

I can tell by the way his frontal lobes pulsate that that judge is a racist.

That was the abridged version of his closing remarks, the original also included:
God has a hard on for [Americans], because we kill everything we see. He plays His games, we play ours. To show our appreciation for so much power, we keep heaven packed with fresh souls. God was here before the [United States], so you can give your heart to Jesus, but your ass belongs to the [country]!
I'll bet you're the kind of guy that would fuck a person in the ass and not even have the goddam common courtesy to give him a reach-around! I'll be watching you!
[Richard Reid], I'm gonna give you three seconds, exactly three fuckin' seconds, to wipe that stupid lookin' grin off your face or I will gouge out your eyeballs and skull fuck you!
US District Court Judge Young: Mr. Reid, do you believe in the Virgin Mary?
Richard C. Reid: Sir, no sir!
US District Court Judge Young: Well Mr. Reid, I don't believe I heard you correctly!
Richard C. Reid: Sir, the private said "no sir," sir!
US District Court Judge Young: Why you little maggot, you make me want to vomit!
[Slaps Reid]
US District Court Judge Young: You goddamned communist heathen, you had best sound off that you love the Virgin Mary, or I'm gonna stomp your guts out!
I took the liberty of replacing some of his words with what he really meant!

And I ask you to search your heart and ask yourself what sort of unfathomable hate led you to do what you are guilty and admit you are guilty of doing. And I have an answer for you. It may not satisfy you. But as I search this entire record it comes as close to understanding as I know. It seems to me you hate the one thing that is most precious. You hate our freedom. Our individual freedom. Our individual freedom to live as we choose, to come and go as we choose, and to believe or not believe as we individually choose.

Well, many of these extremist's propoganda and beliefs are that the world should become Muslim. If that happens and they have the fundies in power, obviously it'll be less free (think Taliban...).

However I think most Terrorist organizations are not after something so grand as that. I think the heart of what they really want is money/power. They want to sell their drugs...Sure, Fundamentalism and Islam may be their propoganda, but drugs is really their motive.

So probably saying they hate Freedom is definitely stretching it, but not totally off base...

The other option is to stop denying the fact they hate the US because of decades of financial and political manipulation, selling them guns so they can kill each other and using the money to train more of them to kill each other to meet your own shady political agenda, propping up and supporting israel no matter what they do, installing and supporting dictators, and dropping sattelite guided bombs on them when your president gets his knob polished in the oval office.

Actually admitting that the US may be at fault for the extreme negative reaction they get from the middle east would probably blow up the universe though. So instead of taking a serious look at why they have such a hard on for killing americans, you can just say "oh well they hate us because we have freedom and liberty and they don't" and go back to subjugating and killing them wholesale.

Because it is an excuse as to why they would attack you without having to admit the real reason. What is Bush going to say? "Yeah we fucked up big time and are probably reaping what we've sown now." Of course not. America is free and just and does no wrong.

The US is partially at fault, we should let them kill each other and not take sides.

Of course that would piss off the liberals and the conservatives.

Oh yeah and BTW Muslim fanatics by definition follow teachings that beleive that being tolerant is a sign of failed belief, so yes, they do kill Americans since they beleive us all to be sinners. Not that there are not other reasons but time and time again they do not say "We kill you for being an interfering dog" they say "We kill you for being the great Satan"

Of course this post is fact, and therefore Kyoukan will just attack it's author or lie blantantly, sigh.

I believe Bush did say that in a speech last week. Here is the link in case your daily rage vs Krimson sparks and you want to start showing off your quick wit with semantics.

And he acknowledged shortcomings in past policy, saying the United States and other nations shared blame for the lack of democratic freedoms in the Middle East.
“Sixty years of Western nations excusing and accommodating the lack of freedom in the Middle East did nothing to make us safe, because in the long run stability cannot be purchased at the expense of liberty,” Bush said Thursday.
Anything else I can prove you wrong on today, or is this enough? Ok, thought so. I don't support Bush's middle east policy, so don't bother with that one. I am just calling your bluff.

There was a lack of freedom when the middle east was part of the Ottoman Empire. Our country not securing their freedom has nothing to do with it. DO you really feel they want a western style democracy & freedom. Uh, no.

Yes admitting that the US may be sorta partially kind of at fault for not forcing democracy on the middle east 60 years ago is exactly tantamount to admitting that the US has been economically and militarily manipulating the region since the end of world war one, as well as making a mockery of the fundamentals of their faith and murdering them.

Yes, left to their own devices, middle eastern cultures trend toward benevolence and freedom.


One has only to look at the attitude towards women to see that the Great Satan is the cause of all troubles in the region.

It's not like we forced the Saudi royalty to take our money and guns. They were fighting a war and chose to sell us that precious crude for a massive edge over their enemies. During the Cold War, we did whatever was necessary to prevent the USSR cutting us off from the supply. I'm not saying it was right, but without the oil, this country wouldn't be anything more than South Canada.

Besides, any faith that outlaws beer and boobies deserves every ounce of ridicule that gets heaped upon it.

I think you guys are getting mixed up between extremeist and Muslims in general. I know a lot of Muslims who aren't extremeist, they do want freedom, democracy etc... we just differ in our Religious views. But to me an extremeist Muslim would be akin to any other religious zealot, just like the Christian Zealots 1000 years or so ago that killed many Muslims (terroristically?... maybe). That being the case they don't want freedom, freedom of thought, choice or anything because people aren't smart enough to choose. They should be bound by religion and religion only, no choice. The fact that Islam in general has so many rules is because not having them or have very few, as Jesus put forth, "didn't work." Thus people being able to choose to not follow those rules doesn't make sense.

The next time Robertson or Falwell train, fund, and instruct someone to crash a plane into a building, then you may bash Christians as being fanatical nutbags. Currently they are nothing more than overzealous greedy fucksticks. If you cannot see a difference between Muslim extremists and any other current religion's extremists, then you may have a slight perception problem. I can think of none that teach you to kill anyone that does not conform to your religion.

All claim to believe in a god. All proclaim their god to be "The God". All profess that those who do not agree with their beliefs are infidels, utterly wrong and condemned to hell, all three are clueless morons.

But only one plans to murder people at every opportunity. That is the only difference.

Of course Christains think that Islam is a confusion attempt by Satan to get God seeking people off course.

And I'm sure Jewish folk see Christains as God seeking folk that got pulled off course by some confusion over what a real messiah looks like.

Yes... but the Jews and Christians believe they decended for Isaac while the Arab nations tend (not all of them) to be considered decendants of Ishmael.
Gen 17:20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.

Gen 17:21 But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.

Gen 17:22 And he left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.

Gen 17:23 And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all that were born in his house, and all that were bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's house; and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the selfsame day, as God had said unto him.
From a Historical perspective though it's interesting to note the part about "I'll make him great but he won't get the convenant." and that this is written in the book of the decendants of the other decendants. :)

I'd love to see some Koran references to this topic.

Does it for instance mention Abraham's sacrifice story?
