Wonderful fucking idea. Maybe they should let the black people in America get revenge on the white people, too? rolleyes:

mwah:

Fucking fanatics.

I haven't been paying attention so someone enlighten me: is this another
religious attack ?

Old Reliable · 03-03-2004, 07:09 PM

from my knowledge, this is masterminded by an al qaeda operative (believed by the US to be). it took place during a religious holiday demonstration.

Hasn't religion been a thorn in humanity's side long enough ? annoy:

I hope this doesn't escalate to a civil war between Sunnis and Shiites,
it would not be contained to Iraq, sort of like the Catholic/Protestant wars of the 3 Musketeers era.

Thats a good point, and it seems thats exactly what the Saudi foreign fighters are trying to do. Under Sadam, the Shiite majority were opressed and now that they are taking control of the country because of majority power, a good way to disrupt the coalition plans would be to promote a civil war. Damnit this sucks, it seems that as long as religion is still the center of ones universe, there will always be room for some kind of strife.

count is over 140 now, like 143

I found this kind of odd.
"It was the deadliest day in Iraq since President Bush declared an end to major combat operations on May 1, 2003. "

I express a feeling towards whoever did the thing.
