#1 Happy vergins (or their fruity substitutes thereof)!

Noose is tightening, it seems.

#2 It's a pityful damn shame that this particular beast couldn't have had his life extracted in a delicately slow but hideously painful manner for several weeks!!

At least now The HAGS of HELL have his rotten soul for an eternity!!!

#4 There is no proof that this Al-Zarqawi is a living breathing person, is there?
Seems to me like he might be an imaginary figure set up by some anti-iraq agency.

#5 "Security forces 'killed the terrorist ... known as Abu Rim ..."

With a Rim shot?

I dunno. There's no proof that Allah exists, is there? Have you ever seen him?

BTW Zarqawi does exist. And he's one ugly mofo. You should be paying attention.

#8 BTW:
Allah means God.

#9 Allah is your god, Gentle. A primitive deity who was originally a moon god (that's the the reason you guys use the crescent moon as a symbol for Islam). Not one of the better gods, if you ask me. And purely a figment of mens' imagination. What's he ever done for you?

BTW - You used to try to sound sensible. What happened?

#10 Some muslims use the moon because we use "moon years", and "moon months" along with "sun years" and "sun months". Not something unique to Islam. Just an old custom kept.
Deah!

#11 Hence the phrase moonbat

#13 The signficant thing here is that the new Iraqi government regards the agony of a prolonged beheading to be torture and terrorism.

Sets the legal stage to try Zarqawi et al - i.e. this was not the act of a pious Muslim in accordance with the Quran, it was torture. Interesting.

#14 Well, Gentle, we do have pictures of a man that is claimed to be Zarqawi. There is an actual history of his existence and he regularly shows his mug on released tapes. If we only catch the guy who is masquerading as Zarqawi, that ought to be good enough.

BTW-Allah was the God of War of the old pantheon of tribal Gods, before Mohammed. Think about that for a moment and consider the mandate of Islam to force the rest of us to live under their rule.

#15 Jame - clarify it - when you say 'the rest of us', you mean 'the civilised world'.

#16 Seems to me like he might be an imaginary figure

Like the barbarian prince "Mohammed"?

Myself, I prefer Conan. More believable, kinder, more gentle, and infinitely more honorable.

#17 Hey ya, Gentle. Where's your comic relief, Antiwar? Oh wait....you're the comic relief. I can never keep you two straight.

#23 I think it probably is our Gentle. I'd recognize that rapier wit anywhere.

#24 Spring Break, probably.

Gentle, dear, if you are on break, it would be good if you were to do the reading I assigned when last we spoke. That way you can argue your points based on knowledge. At your age and achievement, charming ignorance will no longer do.
