Is this really neccecary ?

Seriously man.
While I'm sure you didn't mean it when you made that ridiculous post, I don't find the reactions to that post exaggerated at all.

That said, I don't understand people who post such pics, it seems dead bodies with bullets in their heads or chests can't show well enough how horrible the situation is. It has to be headless or burned corpses if you are to make the audience pay attention.

The problem here is you never see a huge outrage from the Muslim community when someone hacks someone to death in the name of Allah. It's all about the continuity of the religion, much like the continuity of government after an attack or some debilitating blow. Everyone rushes to the defense of the religion instead of admitting to faults. It's no different than any other love for a religion, government, or cult. That's why you have a whole populous of Americans supporting Obama despite supporting Muslim extremists in Libya and Syria, then saying oops, what happened!!! when they attack American interests.

Whether it be religion or government, it's the same freakish behavior.

why should they be outraged when the casualties on their end are at least a 100 fold?

Because that's not the religion of peace, as Islam claims to be. Everyone knows governments are the biggest killers in history. The only thing the unfunded Muslim extremists are doing is justifying bombing suspected terrorists into oblivion. They act as a catalyst towards their own demise.

Governments are wrong. Islamic extremists are wrong. Period.

But again, you never see outrage from Muslims here whenever Muslims hack someone to death. When the idiots from the US government send drones to Pakistan or bomb Iraq for no reason, we usually at least say something.

The Muslims here never speak out against Muslim atrocities. Never.

Osman, for instance, I've never seen you be outraged about an Islamic attack. Why is that?

no one is disputing that, but the whole outrage piece doesnt make sense any way you look at it, where is this society's outrage when the soldier who killed 16 women and children in cold blood in afghanistan pleads guilty to deal? whats their to deal?

Kind of amazing how most of the world religions come down to being kind to one another, but blowing shit up is just part of the program.

Does he get killed 16 times? I'm not sure I follow, even if it was a plea deal to avoid the death penalty to instead spend LWOP.

Of course people should be outraged about that. But there's too much political correctness when it comes it Islam, even in the US government.

But hey, if you advocate an eye for an eye, go right ahead. It only weakens the argument of Islam considering all of them just want to kill people, apparently.

political correctness when it comes to islam? what does that mean? how does that relate to basically 0 coverage of prosecutors dealing with a guy who killed 16 people?

It's not hypocrisy if you think a soldier killing 16 women and children in Afghanistan is outrageous. Are you suggesting that a lot of Westerners are simply cool with that? Or are you suggesting that a public media consumption demand bias for those things that seem like affronts in one direction?

Hell, if it's all about that, count the number of Japanese actors that killed multiple times daily on different war-vendetta-themed TV shows in China.

You act as if you're talking to someone who loves the US media. I don't. But the same nonsense happens in the Muslim world, it doesn't make any difference.

I have no idea what your point even is. Sounds like you're trying to do what I said, which is continuity of religion. Propaganda.

Seems like we found something we can agree on.

no one is disputing that, but the whole outrage piece doesnt make sense any way you look at it, where is this society's outrage when the soldier who killed 16 women and children in cold blood in afghanistan pleads guilty to deal? whats their to deal?
Isent there ? I allways had the impression there were plenty going big against the misbehavior of certain us soldiers ? But i'm in europe so i cant really tell first hand.

On the other side, who goes to afghanistan ? People who cant afford colleague, so join to army to get a scolarship when they enter ?

The fault of these killings, is the US goverment going on silly wars all over the earth, and drawing people in need to defend their cause as a soldier, whilst these people dont got the mental aspect to be a soldier.

Lately i came to ask myself the question : who is using what for his cause ?

Here in the middle ages, the crusades went on to conquer (read, plunder and rape) a section of the middle east. Why was this ?

One can say, it was the catholic church going to spread their believe into other parts of the world, simular to how islam radicals want to force islam upon non believers currently
On the other hand, it could be said that leaders wanted to conqueror and used religion as a very cheap scapegoat to do this.
I'm however, not sure what alternative motive islam radicals could have. at least their cause is clear. (but horrible)

it's hypocrisy when it is not consistent, unless i have the meaning of the word wrong. But i dont see it as a conscious hypocrisy, it is more a matter of us being told what should be outrageous through a barrage of images and slogans. Acts worse in nature will get labeled something else and most will just swallow that.

I agree. But on this forum, we see a very consistent message: Islam is never at fault and Americans are to blame for everything.

Not the case.
