Check out these excerpts from an interview with Ben Wa Balls (Time, 1999):
-"Our job is to instigate and, by the grace of God, we did that--and certain people responded to this instigation"
-"What I know is that those who risked their lives to earn the pleasure of God are real men. They managed to rid the Islamic nation of disgrace. We hold them in the highest esteem. "
-"We pray to God to end the plight [of the arrested men], and we are confident they will be exonerated."
-"Now infidels walk everywhere on the land where Muhammad was born and where the Koran was revealed to him. The situation is serious. "
-"The U.S. knows that I have attacked it, by the grace of God, for more than ten years now. The U.S. alleges that I am fully responsible for the killing of its soldiers in Somalia. God knows that we have been pleased at the killing of American soldiers. This was achieved by the grace of God and the efforts of the mujahedin from among the Somali brothers and other Arab mujahedin who had been in Afghanistan before that. We expect to be rewarded by God."
-"Whoever denies even a minor tenet of our religion commits the gravest sin in Islam"
-"Hostility toward America is a religious duty, and we hope to be rewarded for it by God. "
Oh yeah? Well, I for one ain’t letting this guy wash his hands based on his religious beliefs. I want his balls in a sling.
I continue to wonder why people, so historically, have chosen ‘God’ as a reason for bloodshed. Listen - stop killing people in the name of ‘God’. Stop using 'God' as a scapegoat for your hatred. It’s absolute hypocrisy and foolishness. None of this has ANYTHING to do with ‘God’. I simply don’t understand that mindset. It’s individuals claiming superiority and self-righteousness. And ‘My god is better than your god'. It’s ludicrous.
We’re now going to respond to it – not because of ‘God’, but because we have been threatened. That’s how it works: You threaten or harm me – and I react to it. ‘God’ doesn’t enter into that equation anywhere.
Stop using a ‘God’ as your reason for everything you are and do. You’re a fucking individual. You’re in control of yourSELF. I find it pathetic and ridiculous to cop-out on your responsibility of actions, by using some supposed being that has an order for everything. It’s a fucking excuse. And I’m sick of hearing people act like mindless cattle. Find a nation you support and go live there (if you don’t already). THAT’S your ‘God’. The ethics and morality you subscribe to is your ‘God’. And you shouldn’t kill somebody because you want to force your ethics and morality on them. If you do – you’ve got fucked to hell ethics and morality, period. America isn’t going to be ‘just’ in its response because WE have the righteous god. We’re going to be ‘just’ in our response because we believe in the policies of this country. And we choose to serve them. If people die in the process, it’s not ‘god willing’. It’s because that’s the choice we made in our response. And we take responsibility for it. THAT’S how it should be approached and viewed (as I see it. Based on MY ethics and morality. Which may not be correct, but they’re MINE!).
Jihad’s, Crusades, etc, is certain fucking idiocy. It makes me sick. WAKE UP!!
And no, I’m not an atheist. I’m an agnostic. For reasons such as the current one.
I’m not looking for an argument here (though I’m sure I’ll get one. And guess what, I’m not going to KILL you because you disagree with me), I just had to SAY it. Cuz it’s rational.
(Sorry to ruin your day of prayer. But I read this nonsense and it just sets me off. As usual, my timing is poor).
Lastly,
“Any thief or criminal or robber who enters another country in order to steal should expect to be exposed to murder at any time. Muslims are angry. The Americans should expect reactions from the Muslim world that are proportionate to the injustice they inflict./ the American army is going downhill in its morale. Its members are too cowardly and too fearful to meet the young people of Islam face to face. ” (Ben Wa Balls)
Then crawl out of your ass, coward. We’ve got a score to settle.
