... I am an American and I am not going to attack you or your citizens even though I am a muslim but I am also a Vietnam Veteran so I have earned the right to criticise your warlike conduct and to denounce your hypocricy. Hopefully your bloody conduct will only cause you to fall into the hands of a little jihadist rather than into the hands of the one, true God. Insha Allah these heat waves and hurricanes do not indicate that God is already turning his face away from the USA. Submitted by Maureen, May 8, 2006 at 22:16 These cases should not be handled as criminal cases, because these men are jihadis, behind-the-lines, non-uniformed soldiers in a non-traditional, non-European, Medieval-mindset war. What we are seeing is an insidious, borderless, religious war. New means must be developed to deal with new types of warfare.
