Although it's hard to get by the fact that all of these gentlemen are "Muslims" and were "brought together through radical Islamist groups," I do wish MSNBC had made it clear Islam has nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism.
Hi Abdu, Please sont be soo dumb in calling your brothers/Terrorists gentlemen and secondly are you living in Mars? Who wants to kill or blowup people other than you folks. Unfortunately all these guys are somehow how getting it from mosques or some other places. Unless Muslims come forward and denounce these guys each and every time they are caught then people will start seperating them from Islam. Its very hard for me to believe Islam has nothing to do as these terrorists always claim they are fulfilling the wishes from the Koran.
Really? You are so self deluded. This is all about Islam. This is a religion that wants to kill anyone who is not Muslim and Muslim's who do not agree with them. If this is not about Islam than where is the condemnation of Muslim's for these acts? I am sick of hearing about your "peaceful" religion, it is clearly anything but peaceful.
@Phil, Shep ... You "gentlemen" should have clicked on the links, notice the lightly underlined words? Clicking on the word "gentlemen" would have led you to a new movie set to be released this summer about the return of Osama bin Laden: "Osombie: The Axis of Evil Dead." Clicking on the phrase "Islam has nothing whatsoever to do with Islam" would have led you to the current list of terrorists attacks and the death tolls and casualties, all inspired by Islamic doctrine -- the numbers are staggering.
The facts, the numbers, they speak for themselves: Islam is not a religion, it is a centuries old criminal protection racket/death cult that disguises itself as a religion. Religion is for the Islamists what the olive oil importing business was to don Corleone.
It's a fact that most of the Muslim world consists of the descendents of peoples who overrun, robbed, raped and slaughtered by theiving fanatic killers: Mohammadans out of Arabia. The survivors were given a choice: submit to the thug zakat collectors and their front "Islamic" (i.e. submission) religion or die. Today, many of these unfortunate descendents of those survivors seem to live in some sort of hyper-generational, culturally-brainwashed-in Stockholm syndrome-like trance and are kept in line by Sharia law that's meted out by Mohammadan fanatics and their thug ... hmmm, perhaps the term "Osombies" will soon find greater meaning here, as a counter to the "Islamophobia" hype, especially when you factor CAIR and and their blatant racist hypocrisy. Might we begin to refer to them, CAIR, the "Islamophobia" accusers et al; the zakat enriched Islamists and MB fronts and their supine dhimmi friends as "Osombies?" What the heck, if the shoe fits throw it.
What a foolish statement! Islam has everything to do with terrorism! These scum muslims are recruited and trained in the islamic mosques by imams paid for by rank and file muslims. And these "peaceful' muslims sit quietly by, do nothing, say nothing and to date have not demonstrated a single demonstrative effort to stop terrorism. Yes, killing, hate, and terrorism are the core of islam, the greatest scourge this world has ever known!
Islam has nothing to do with terrorism?!! That's like saying Mickey Mouse has nothing to do with Disney. Give me a break.
Why are they only being given jail time and how does that deter other muslims who are undertaking these 'radical' actions as a result of their religious beliefs?
These demons can never be set free.But where to put them forever?
