More Beheadings in Syria: Why We Should Stay Out

Hat tip Atlas Shrugs and Live Leak

Viewer warning

Another day in Syria; another day of beheadings. The al Qaeda-connected group carrying out this gruesome act is reportedly one of those groups we will be providing arms to -or at least knives.

According to Atlas Shrugs, there are Russian voices in that tape, apparently with accents indicating they come from Chechnia or Daghestan. Remember the Brothers Tsarnaev? They got into our country and are not only now known as the Boston bombers, but are suspects in an earlier murder of three Jews in Boston, whose throats were slashed.

And note the presence in the video of so many children. They are the next generation. Are we going to bring them to the US as "refugees" also? How many Americans will die in that cause?

Once again, I ask the question: What if these three men seen in the video were American troops-your son. your husband, your father, your brother? Would you still want us to send troops into that region? Granted, Bashar Assad is a horrible dictator and his troops have killed tens of thousands of innocents in Syria. So how many American soldiers are you willing to lose in this fashion to get rid of Assad?

"Oh", but you say, "those fighters wouldn't do that to us. They are on our side."

So were the killers in Benghazi, we thought.

There were a lot of Allah Akbars before and after the be-headings. Where have we heard that before? It seems to be the phrase that unites the members of the Religion of Peace in whatever they do in the cause of Islam and justifies the atrocities.

I wonder what their crimes were. Maybe they were in support of gay marriage or chose to say something against the government.

No word from CAIR? or the MSU? What a surprise... I suppose they are good with this process as well.

If you look around and see who your allies are and are appalled, you should examine the side you are on. If you are not comfortable with the Occupy movement, you are on the wrong the side. If you are not comfortable with these horrific acts, conscience alone should dictate that you re-think your values.

Miggie,

Here is the wikipedia definition of the other phrase heard (Takbir).


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takbir

I have heard this shouted at those MSU-anti-Israeli events that come to UCI every May. About 3 years ago they were in a circle after the event above the flagpoles shouting, this in unison. It was captured on video. I don't have the video, but I was a witness.

Did the mean to say "God is Greatest" or something else?

One example from Wikipedia:
"After 9/11, the FBI released a letter reportedly handwritten by the hijackers and found in three separate locations on September 11, 2001 — at Dulles International Airport, at the Pennsylvania crash site, and in hijacker Mohamed Atta's suitcase. It included a checklist of final reminders for the 9/11 hijackers. An excerpt reads: "When the confrontation begins, strike like champions who do not want to go back to this world. Shout, 'Allahu Akbar,' because this strikes fear in the hearts of the non-believers." Also, in the cockpit voice recorders found at the crash site of Flight 93, the hijackers are heard to be reciting the Takbir repeatedly as the plane plummeted toward the ground and the passengers attempted to retake control of the plane."

It goes to my point that the more religious the Islamists are, the more prone to violence they are..
We'd all be better off if they weren't so religious.

I know we don't agree on many issues, but I am with u all the way on this! Look what happened with the weapons and training we supported in Afganistan when they were fighting with Russia. That sure backfired on us. Syria is a quagmire that is even worse. You know that no matter what we do, some faction(s) will hate us for it. Then we'll give them billions of dollars that we need to use to help our own country . I don't support either side anymore.

How can u side with any side when they behead prisoners!

Maggiemae,

Then you need to let your representatives know how you feel about it.

The way Gary was talking about all the beheadings, I thought he wanted to send in the marines to stop them.

Amazing how Gary has become a gay marriage supporter ever since he learned jihadis were against it.

Maggiemae said...

Have and will continue to do so, Gary.

Gary Fouse said...

Siarlys,

You are truly having a bad day. I made it very clear in showing the beheadings that I am against any US forces being sent into that mess.

As for the second point, I do not support gay marriage, but don't consider it the major issue today, so I don't get too emotional about it. It has nothing to do with Islam. I believe in gays not being discriminated against or harassed. Naturally, I have pointed out what Islamic doctrine has to say about gays-kill them. In Iran, that is exactly what they are doing.

Siarlys Jenkins said...

Yes, you do have a humanitarian side Gary. But don't you want to stop the beheadings?

Gary Fouse said...

Siarlys,


We all would like to see a world without beheadings. However, they are only occurring in a certain part of the world, and I am not willing to see one American soldier die to stop it. In Syria, no Americans have been beheaded. If we send our troops there, it will happen.
