| Hmph. I stand corrected, if this excerpt from his "manifesto" (more like LJ copypasta) is legit: - Quote :
- As for girlfriends; I do get the occasional lead, or the occasional girl making a move, especially now a day as I’m fit like hell and feel great. But I’m trying to avoid relationships as it would only complicate my plans and it may jeopardize my operation. And I don’t feel comfortable manipulating girls any more into one night stands. I am not that person any more. I did screw two girls in Prague though, but that was mainly because it was a realistic chance that I would end up dead during the process of establishing a weapons connection. I won’t make any effort to try to completely justify it though. Human males are imperfect by default as they are plagued by their biological needs. Nevertheless, screwing around outside of marriage is after all a relatively small sin compared to the huge amounts of grace I am about to generate with my martyrdom operation.

| That reads like something a version of John Doe with a sex drive would write.
Wonder how he feels about not being a "martyr" though. | |

I'm curious, who did he expect to receive this grace from? Whose approval was he so desperately seeking? | |

| Well, he sure didn't end up the martyr he envisioned himself as. Apart from anything, he's not dead, and on top of that he's gonna have hell in prison for all those kids he killed. | |

| For what it's worth, that is a new prison rather than a 'typical' prison and somehow I don't think he'll be going there. He's more likely to go to an asylum. | |

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] From what I've been told, they can extend the sentence indefinitely if he's found to still be "a danger to society." Sort like what happens with most "life sentences" here, but in reverse. | |

According to his manifesto, that's when "the propaganda phase" begins, or something. | |

I keep reading that he went around shooting for ninety minutes before he was brought down. Can you imagine trying to hide that long? | |

| I was a Muslim for six months (a phase), and though there is always disagreement about everything that has to do with religion, I can say that Islam is not a "go kill everybody" religion. It's not anti-conflict the way the Christianity of the Gospels is, but it's not as ultra-militant as people make it out to be.
The Islamic code of war that Muhammad drew up during his conflicts with the Meccans has the following rules: do not wage aggressive war, do not target civilians, do not rape women, and do not hurt the environment. There are violent verses in the Qur'an, but no more than there are percentage-wise in the Old Testament and Revelations; as with the four anti-homosexual verses in the Bible, they get exaggerated by extremists. Same with anti-Semitic verses. Though it is reiterated again and again that dying in the name of the faith is honorable, the deaths discussed involved (a) peaceful people who were persecuted for being Muslim, like the martyr Sumaiya, or (b) Muslims being killed while battling their (military) enemies face-to-face. I don't even know where the kamikaze shit came from.
"Jihad" was originally a word that rarely meant physical war. It was a war of wills, both within the Muslim himself or out in the marketplace of ideas (i.e. Jihad is holding your own in a debate).
I'm not a wholesale defender of Islam. I just want to share what I know. | |

| Extremists will always take any line to the context they want it to mean and force it to mean just that... | |

I recall reading a book about "queens" in the Muslim world (very few of them, and most of them ruled through their sons, but damn they were awesome). I don't have it on hand to double check the text, but the book was named The Forgotten Queens of Islam by Fatima Mernissi. Now this is from memory, but I THINK the whole kamikaze thing was invented by a man who the book described along the lines of "so evil the Devil himself would hate him" some time before 1000 AD, in Egypt. The man in question aided in the young Sultan's slip of sanity and turned him into an absolute nutcase dictator who thought he was Allah. When the Sultan suddenly disappeared under mysterious circumstances his sister took over, and everyone was so happy to be rid of the crazy one that they didn't even care they had a woman on the throne. The advisor, however, ran off into the mountains with a sect that still exists, waiting for the Sultan's return. | |

Moreso than Anne Coulter claiming that the 9/11 widows were enjoying their husbands' deaths for the publicity? | |

But was that worse than Michael Savage saying that all autistic children are faking it? This could go on forever. I'm seeing a pattern: everyone who suffers deserves it somehow. | |

| But in the midst of it all, there are still decent people: German Roofer Hailed as Hero for Saving Teens From Shooting - Quote :
- In the wake of last week's devastating shooting attack on the Norwegian island of Utøya, several tales of individual heroism and survival are now starting to emerge.
One 32-year-old roofer from Germany, for example, sped on his boat to the island, and helped guide many young people who had tried to swim away from the massacre back safely to shore.
"I just did it on instinct," Marcel Gleffe told The Telegraph. "You don't get scared in a situation like that, you just do what it takes. I know the difference between fireworks and gunfire. I knew what it was about, and that it wasn't just nonsense." He was apparently on vacation with his parents on a neighboring Island. - Quote :
- Gleffe was camping with his parents on the mainland directly across from Utøya. The three were discussing the recent bombing in Oslo when Gleffe heard some shots and then saw a teenager swimming to shore, yelling "help," he told Der Spiegel. He immediately realized that the shooting he heard was connected to the Oslo bombing, and he jumped in a small boat his family had rented for the trip and began speeding to the island.
Gleffe says he helped at least 20 teens get to shore, throwing out life jackets and making several trips in his boat to the island and back to the mainland. Some of the fleeing teenagers were frightened to accept his help, since the accused gunman was dressed as a policemen and told his victims to come closer before he opened fire. "It was unbelievable to see how strong they were," he told Der Spiegel of the campers. At least 150 people were pulled out of the water after the massacre, and psychologists told the German paper that many of them are suffering from crushing survivors' guilt. There is a truly heartbreaking interview with a 16-year-old girl, shot in the leg, who played dead by lying pinned under a dead body, and also an interview with a Ugandan man who hid in a tree. | |

| I thought Glenn Beck would have liked that seeing as Hitler was for the same things he seems to be for, mainly the getting rid of those 'different' from his ideal. Makes me ashamed to be mostly conservative. But a history professor of mine once said that it's all a matter of where you stand in the political spectrum. I'm sure there are those out there who think George W Bush is a pinko liberal. | |
