Yes. The ones that blow themselves are 90% from that type environment. Its one of the key reasons they do it. The ones with money just tell the others to do it. You think Osama is hiding because he knows he is going to be a martyr or because he knows he is dead on site?

1. There are a lot of countries who don't use torture. They just are not usually involved in wars.
2. Both the Bible and the Quran condone violence, depending on which verse you read. Likewise they both advocate violence, depending on which verse you read.
What is the difference? Both religions went through an extremely violent purging time. Look at when the crusades happened vs. the beginning of Christianity, as well as the current terrorism vs. the beginnings of Islam. Not exact, but close enough.
The bottom line: Most of the world has learned from their mistakes and don't practice hatred any more. The rest will eventually get there. Until then, kill 'em all, and let God sort them out.

I am torn.
On one hand I would like to go and weild the steel rod myself. If torture garners information that saves a bunch of people I am all for it. Of course with sodium pentathol they can get a bunch of information without inflicting pain.
Yet on the other hand I know deep down that civility is what separates us from them.
I suppose all things considered, if they had credible evidence that pertinate info were available, getting it however brutal the method is worth it and I wouldn't have a problem cracking a bone for 10 to get it.
The sticky wicket is that A. If they are enemy combatants they are covered by the Geneva Convention and thus are protected from abuse.
If they are citizens of the US they are protected by our laws. I have a real problem with US citizens, no matter how scummy being detained forever without due process. If they were captured assisting or participating in terror, try them and slam the door on their cage and be done with it.

They couldn't have been too well educated, now could they? Or else they wouldn't have thought virgins were waiting for them after they blew themselves up.Spoiled said:
Pssst.....so do Muslims. But guess what? Christians don't blow themselves and others up just to get laid.Spoiled said:
I know this is futile to ask but where did you get that information? I am completely unaware of Christians blowing up 3,000 folks in one whack and I'm SURE it would have been on the news.Spoiled said:
Actually, the most American lives lost are at the hands of abortion doctors, certainly very few of whom are Christian.
It would be interesting to interview the guy who invented the partial-birth abortion and find out what the hell he was thinking. He's probably in a padded room somewhere.BuddyLee said:

And he says I'm not funny...
First off, how would one tell the difference between that and his guitar playing? :badumpah:
Second, did they find his body?

We say that but...
...the day to day violence in our culture far exceeds that of Islamic countries.
I think what separates us is we never stop evolving and changing in order to adapt to the mixing bowl we still are.
Islam is stuck, not technologically, but physcologically, in the year 1100.
They modernize but they won't westernize and for all our flaws, westernization is why we're better.
