Iraqi, U.S. Forces Target Insurgents In 7 Mosque Raids

Operations increase in Sunni stronghold

By Jim Michaels, USA Today

CAMP BLUE DIAMOND, Iraq — Iraqi security forces backed by U.S. troops on Tuesday raided seven mosques in the insurgent stronghold of Ramadi, west of Baghdad. U.S. officials said the mosques were being used to harbor militants and store weapons.

It's pretty terrible that terrorists in the East seem to use religion as their "get out of jail free" card. Not only is it bad for the people who are trying to stop the terrorism (not that I support the war in the least) but it ends up giving their religion a general bad name. This has happened with a lot of religions throughout the years but I think it can be seen the most in Islam now. It's sad really because for every retarded terrorist that twists Islamic holy scriptures to fit his/her sick little agenda there are 50thousand other peaceful Muslims who wouldn't hurt a fly, let alone say it's ok to hurt a fly because their religion says so.


I pretty much agreed with everything you said.

I would dread being a Muslim in this day and age as much as I would dread being a southern redneck Christian following Bushy around. Same damn thing different view.

Yeah, I know. All of the suicide bombings here in the south lately have been pretty crazy. Oh, and Leroy got his leg cut off for fucking a goat last week. Man, that sucks.

Don't ever equate the bible belt (as silly as it is) to the radical Islamic world (as dangerously silly as it is).

You are so right. Bombs whether strapped to somebody or dropped from a plane have a big difference. Both being done in the name of what? They are the same.

When they can agree on A god. I won't put the two in the same bag.
