And what are IS/Daesh up to right now?
What is even more interesting is when you read the actual events, as the big US saves the day bit at the end never happened. The Afghan villagers stood alone against the Taliban and saw off a number of night raids by them when they attempted to capture Luttrell.
Interestingly (and on topic) the villagers were Pashtun's, who despite being Muslim were heavily persecuted by the Taliban over the decades, one of the reasons for which was the status that traditionally women hold within Pashtun culture. Hold positions up to an on par with men within village life.^Every belief taken to the extreme will be bad. What "taken to the extreme" has resulted in something good?
I can't think of a single thing... middle ground rocks
Thanks for enlighting me on the end. After the movie I watched Lutrell on Youtube, what happend to his dog, ... this I didn't know. But either way the important thing I got out was the bravery the villagers showed to save a stranger life.
One could also say that Muslims are also responsible for modern mathematics, cartography, spacial awareness, etc...It's pretty astonishing that Jewish people, which can be counted in millions, have won several times more Nobel awards than Muslims, who total at about 1.5 billion right now. I wonder how this can be possible. Probably because of "racism".
Indeed. It was the Muslims who saved most of the scientific and mathematical knowledge that the world had following the fall of the Roman Empire. I believe they constructed the main dome of the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul - a free-standing structure with no internal support - some 900 years before the Christian kingdoms of Europe reacquired that knowledge.
The exact same thing is true of Islam.
The IRA were active in any place that contained British troops or were British territories, as such attacks took place across Europe and IRA cells were active in terms of fund raising and training in the US, Canada, Australia, Libya and South America.
For the bolded part, I'd like to add the Muslim-dominated areas in Europe, where people's attitudes in general are horrifying even without a Sharia law spicing things up. A religion that is compatible with democracy doesn't need its followers creating "Muslim Patrols".
Two questions in that regard.
Democracy and organized religion may not really be compatible.
When did recent scientific discovery become the measure by which we judge the worthiness of a society?
1. What's a "Muslim street"?
What's a Christian street?
And was not needed given that all three members of the Muslim patrol were arrested, tried and sentenced long before this occurred.
He British born, so we deport him to? Oh that's right Britain. He's also currently on bail following further charges. As such the legal system seems to be functioning as it should.
Big whooop, given that Britain First are most definitely racists with roots in the BNP and National Front.
The original Muslim Patrol may be gone, but how can you be sure the rest of the Muslims haven't been harassing the rest of the residents since then? This is more than a random 3 man patrol, it's about the whole community's attitudes.
Does Britain own any uninhabitated islands? That's where he should go, if the court seriously doesn't have the capability to throw him into prison. On the second note, prison might be a bad idea, because he's still able to continue his preaching from inside. Hell, he could easily start preaching to other Muslim inmates, who are grossly overrepresented in British prisons, I wonder why that is.
When did refusing to give a straight answer to a question become an acceptable way of refuting a valid point?
Quiet simply because the Daily Mail would have it splashed across the front page one millisecond after it happened.
Glad to see that you feel due process should be abandoned based on nothing but religious affiliation.Does Britain own any uninhabitated islands?

Oh, he's on bail? In other words, free as a bird. Should that make taxpayers feel safe?
Good for you then. You may have been lucky to miss the worst of the bunch, though I'm sure that things would be different if you lived in a place like Luton whose remaining good citizens might have a drastically different story to tell about these guys than you.
You don't seriously think I'm saying this because of religious affiliation? This is about a guy who poses a threat to national security with his open willingness to use violence to make sure the country bows down in front of his crappy laws that no native Briton with a brain in their head would ever accept. In fact, digging deeper into his viewpoints, he doesn't belong in a prison, but a good old-fashioned madhouse.
Ohh look who it is again.
Then why are you suggesting that due process be ignored?
