I guess not. Just find it funny how we offer Gods blessing on humans that were just blown to bits under gods watch. So either God sucks or gods on terrorists side.Godfather. said:
callen really ? .. do know what a blessing is ?callen said:
Again, it's painfully obvious God didn't bless victims. He fked them. Hard. Maybe god is a Muslim?muskydan said:
There are a lot of "special" people on here, but reading people's thoughts are a new one, even for the train. Why don't you put this amazing talent to good use and predict when another group of Islamic Terrorists Plans on blowing up more infidels and innocents in the name of Allah?? You do that then maybe people will start paying attention to your nonsense.josevolution said:
I'm just writing what your thinking ! & want ...muskydan said:
Absolutely Not, I can't believe you would write something as extreme as that on this forum. Shame on youjosevolution said:
What says you Nuke the whole area get rid of everybody no ? The only way to be sure no to extinguish all the Muslims in that region problem solved ...muskydan said:
All the apologists on here, which are rampant can't handle what really needs to happen to help curb this Savage behavior to innocents. Why don't you ask Bernie?josevolution said:How do countries go about securing airports now think about it this can happen at any airport here !!
GOD Bless the people of Brussels and all the people killed in this massacre.
Godfather.
If people on train want to invoke their magical gods in posts I will invoke my thoughts on the matter.

Oh yes the God works in mysterious ways and he's not intervening for a reason.benjs said:
There's also the third option that a god doesn't intervene. Omniscience does not necessitate interventionism. Though maybe those were a few problems with Bush: he loved his god, thought himself omniscient and made in his god's image, and therefore was in favour of interventionism!Gern Blansten said:
Agreed...callen said:
Okay okay okay one thing is very clear, god did not bless the victims. He allowed them to be torn to bits, maimed and mentally fucked.muskydan said:
And yet some of you geniuses mention his name again as these horrid terrorist events are unfolding, un-fucken-real. God bless the victims and families of those lost by another ISLAMIC TERRORIST attack.g under p said:
I'm sure he will have something Provacative to say. It's no wonder The Donald doesn't have to spend much money on political ads....we the people keep him in the news. There's at least 5 threads on this board with his name in it.callen said:This will give Trump some material.
I've been through that metro system in Brussels on my way to a festival in Werchter. I hope the Belgium people will recover from this attack.
Peace
And yes Trump comes up because the terrorists harbor same hate that draws humans to trump. Trump will now use this to keep the cycle going.
Finally it's religious terrorism not Muslim terrorism. Yeah same as the Christians wanting to bomb shit out of Muslims. Same exact mentality. Look in the mirror. You are them.
Did anyone suggest patrolling Christian neighborhoods when McVeigh blew up the building in OK City?
God either doesn't give a shit that people get blown up or he doesn't exist. Pick one.
Yet we pray to god daily for wealth and thank him for making a fraakin touchdown pass. Prayers work but fuck the kids that just got blown up. But bless them.

is it America's fault these thugs were into carjackings, robberies and shoot-outs or were they just bad dudes? looks to me like just bad dudes.Jason P said:
Brussels (AFP) - Long before blowing themselves up in crowds of innocent people, suicide bomber Ibrahim El Bakraoui and his brother Khalid lived the lives of the classic Brussels hoodlum.JC29856 said:The men who carried out these attacks were politically educated out of the destruction of Iraq, the invasion of Afghanistan, the drone bombings in Pakistan and Yemen, the torture of Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib, and the colonization and occupation of Palestine. To make it shorter, they, mostly identify as Muslims, and they were horrified by the ideological war of the West against what it wrongfully calls “the Muslim world.” This is the main motivator behind the men of ISIS becoming killers. “Your wars, our deaths” became a slogan after the Paris attacks. It might not be totally accurate, and we definitely cannot simplify things, but there is a lot of truth in it.
Good stuff...

Carjackings, robberies and shoot-outs with police were just some of the convictions collected by the Belgian brothers who took part in the metro and airport assaults in Brussels claimed by the Islamic State group.
Both were said to have links with top Paris attacks suspect Salah Abdeslam, while the third identified Brussels attacker, Najim Laachraoui, was the suspected bomb-maker for the November rampage in the French capital.
Good stuff ...

When societies are constantly under attack from outside, they are likely to turn violent, repressive and vengeful, not because of some inherent quality in their religion or culture but because of the circumstances they find themselves in. That is as true for the Middle East, as it is for us in the “civilised” west. - See more at: http://www.jonathan-cook.net/blog/2016-03-24/a-lesson-from-brussels-we-refuse-to-learn/#.dpuf0

Reminds me of the elder Marathon bomber here in Boston. Before his turn as martyr he was into drug dealing and drug related murder.pjhawks said:

expenditures on domestic homeland security (i.e., not counting the wars in Iraq or Afghanistan) have increased by more than $1 trillion since 9/11, even though the annual risk of dying in a domestic terrorist attack is about 1 in 3.5 million.
The terror entrepreneurs, usually described as experts on terrorism, are necessarily engaged in competition to justify their existence. Hence their task is to convince the public that it faces new threats.

This is why I don't expect intervention from a deity, nor do I request it.

You don't have that perspective when arguing for gun control and the idea of 'vehicles should be banned too if we're interested in public safety' gets tossed out there.callen said:

You don't because getting in a car accident driving somewhere (transporting yourself) is exactly what I just said... an accident. Just like choking on a hot dog (eating) would be an accident too.
At least be consistent when trying to support someone who is trying to suggest everyone should get over it already.
"My brain's a good brain!"0 -
Of course not. Pointing out we need to keep real threat in perspective so we don't over react and make matters worse. Add our fear mongering politicians using these spectacular events to drum up votes and appetite for war and it's spoils.Annafalk said:

In rabbit hole, car accidents are accidents. Choosing to win a gun and increasing g chance of death is not.

Jimal... made a response in the Paris thread to a question I asked of JC (which he ducked). I thought it was fair.
Poor assimilation. These f**king idiots made no connection with the country they were raised in. Call it what you want, but it's mass murder any way you want to look at it. Instead of a barking dog motivating them... a f**ked up ideology did the trick."My brain's a good brain!"0 -
