@asdf The proof is in any Wahhabi Koran. I was wrong about most of the copies of the Koran in Saudi Arabia and the world being historically accurate. The books that come out of the Kingdom of Saud are the Wahhabi Korans, the ones that twist the meanings of the passages to make them hateful, racist and reactionary. Changing the meaning of words is not much different from changing the words themselves. So there you go...books are being changed. Either way there is something fucked up about the belief that only one language is worthy of the holy word. Religious sillyness aside, that has to be some of the most ethnocentric shit I have ever heard of. The bible is still valid( to those that believe )no matter what language it is in.

@ General X You are absolutely correct, according to Islamic law the Qur'an cannot be modified. That being said, we are talking about Islamic nations that don't have the best education systems. Even christians must be taught their faith, and Muslims are not born knowing everything about their religion. I'm sure that the copies of the Qur'an that you find in Saudi Arabia and MOST of the world are historically accurate. But the some of the copies that they are printing and distributing to poor tribal villages contain passages encouraging their young people to make war specifically with America, no matter the cost. I'm not making this up, it is dangerously real. Saudi Arabia makes too much money off of us to directly challenge us. So they get their poor ignorant neighbors to do it for them. Here is an analogy. You and I are reciprocal business owners in the same city. We have extreme cultural differences, so we hate each other(because we are both fucking idiots as well). Despite our mutual dislike, we need each others business. But I still hate you. So rather that confront you directly and risk losing our business relationship, I hire a crackhead from the poor part of town to fuck your shit up for twenty dollars. If only he were addicted to religion instead of crack I could have most likely gotten him to do it for free. There are a billion muslims in the world. How can you be sure they are all on the same page? - Comment on Tank M3A3 Bradley Light Tank (2008-09-16 13:18:30)

Would be Murderers. Like our ally Saudi Arabia. Don't forget that no matter who wins the election, The Saudis are responsible for the 9/11 not Iraq, not Afghanistan, not Iran, not Syria or any of those poor nations that send their young men out to die by marine gunfire. It was Saudi Arabia that spawned Osama, and the Saudis' that continue to smile and do business with us, while lending the bulk of financial and political support to terrorist groups. It will be Saudi Arabia that moves to fill the power vacuum if the U.S. should ever fall. At least thats what they must think. Honestly it is absolutely foolish to believe that the U.S. can ever be brought to its knees without bringing about the end of Human Civilization. WHOEVER wins the election needs to understand that we WILL be attacked again, by people that we trust and support, because that is the ONLY way to assault a nation as powerful as ours. It would be nice for us as a nation to strive for peace, but lets not give the keys for our house to men that openly claim their willingness to kill us. - Comment on The difference between obama and osama is just a little BS (2008-09-15 17:26:31)
@ sinbin Can you tell me which part of UNITED STATES CITIZEN is difficult for you to understand? You must have missed the part of grade school where they explain what the word citizen means. The U.S.A is such an awesome place. It's one of the few places in the world where Fucktards with a debilitating lack of intelligence can somehow still survive. They not only survive but are approved to to buy all kinds of useless shit on credit that they will be paying off for the rest of their ignorant lives. I'm glad you enjoyed my post, thank you very much. If thinking is a crime, I AM RIDICULOUSLY ILLEGAL. - Comment on The difference between obama and osama is just a little BS (2008-09-15 15:43:19)
I'm a wealthy Latin American, a first generation United States citizen, my hard work and ingenuity (and no small amount of luck) has translated into my security and success. I'm offended by U.S. citizens that feel they cannot survive without government help. The government loaned me money for college because of my race, which I am thankful for. I took my education and made sure that neither I nor my children will ever be on welfare or without emergency funds. I love this Country, so much so that I have forsaken my heritage. I am [racist] against my own people. The machismo, classism, and corruption in almost all Latin nations, makes the rampant ignorance here in U.S. seem wholesome and intelligent by comparison. But it would seem that my beliefs and lifestyle is deserving only of death, because I'm not Arab (forget about being muslim, Islam did not always preach destruction of the west). Why am I and my children to blame for the actions of Prescott Bush and his children and grandchildren. I have nothing against arabs. Other than their governments want to kill me and my family for something I HAVE NO PERSONAL CONTROL OVER. There is also the human rights issues that can never be addressed because of the controlling aspects of theocratic government. I don't want to kill all or ANY arabs, But I sure do wish that the largest printing facilities in the world (which are in Saudi Arabia) weren't printing modified versions of the Qur'an designed to keep the hatred of the west alive. I'm sure our never ending bombing and military incursions do that for them. Top it all off with MILLIONS of dumbshit American citizens who want to invite our would be murderers over for dinner, to see if we can talk out a solution to the revenge vendetta that WE gave to them in the first place. Let us enjoy our friends, family and american luxuries while we can. Because we might just end up giving it all away so we don't feel guilty, about what our leaders do to stay rich, whatever color their skin might be. Not everyone in the government is white (only most of them). - Comment on you Are under Surveillance (2008-09-12 12:14:57)
CrimethInc begins with the brand name, and ends with the relentless merchandizing of “radical†products on their website. In between there is…an individualist, selfish, and inchoate rebel ideology that eschews work, political organizing, and class struggle. In a world at war and facing terminal crisis, CrimethInc’s transcendental philosophy and ahistorical lightness is a form of intellectual masturbation. Like rootless ex-pats unconnected to the daily life around them, CrimethInc’s lifestylism is a form of self-imposed exile within their own society. â€â€Ryan, Ramor, "Days of Crime, Nights of Horror", Perspectives on Anarchist Theory (2004) - Comment on you Are under Surveillance (2008-09-12 12:02:01)
@Puulaahi I'm sorry I Hurt Your feelings. I admit to being an asshole. The quiet guy is quiet because he doesn't usually have anything good to say. I wish I saw things differently, because my view is very dark. But the upside is, even though darkness surrounds me I don't actively generate it. So I'm sorry for being mean. Still, I stand by my opinion that in the near future we will all be under surveillance, so we should get used to the idea. I'm not talking about giving up essential liberties. I want my free speech, the right to bear arms (I don't own a weapon), the right to vote, due process and so forth. But why is the right to privacy so important? What is there to hide? How can I trust a Government that keeps secrets from me? I think we can agree that we don't want a secretive Government. So why have a secretive society? All we need to understand is that there is no escape from it. Anyone reading this now is being monitored, anyone with an internet connection is having information about them being collected. Do you have a modern cell phone? You can be tracked! Since there is no escape from the intrusion of corporations and government in our lives through the use of our technology, we need to adapt as a culture. Becoming more accepting and respectful of other peoples lifestyle, is the only way to ensure there will not be any persecution of those who choose to live in any fashion other than the mainstream ( in the future you won't be able to hide your choices ). It is of vital importance that our intrusive technology does not victimize people for being themselves. @ The Lawnmower Whom it is then. Thank you for the correction. - Comment on you Are under Surveillance (2008-09-11 22:07:27)
@ Puulaahi Condescending and Judgewhat? As opposed to arrogant and ill informed ( I disgust who?). I learned everything I need to know about you when you failed to tell the difference between my actual statement and what your puny mind was able to distill. Furthermore you demonstrate an inability to view the world from any perspective but your own. So careful contemplation of what is actually going on from multiple physical and conceptual angles is a waste of your time? I may have my own view that differs from yours, but in case you haven't figured it out this thing going on around us is not a static phenomena, we are in a constant state of flux, an intelligent and insightful individual that feels differently than me, might just change my mind tomorrow, if they can make their case in a logical fashion. I don't recall saying that you were wrong and I am right, because reality doesn't work that way. Absolutes are the recourse of a weak intellect. I'm no different than you in my responsibilities, yet somehow I DO have the time to think, and speak up when I feel the need, this post is microbial fecal matter on the wall of the internet, it has no weight or meaning but the time I've spent considering the implications of my current beliefs has been priceless. You'll never get any respect telling people that you can't stand them for being or thinking different than you. Perhaps you should also think hard about the actual meaning of the words you casually throw around (like Narcissist). Segregation and a Glass ceiling are very different, wage inequities might be bigoted and unfair, but it's not the same as having a muslim only restroom. I'm talking about institutionalized inhumanity, not the persistence of old world thinking that we all agree is unacceptable. Admission of progress is not a claim of victory. NOW I'm going to be SUPER condescending, People like you are dangerous. Smart enough to attain a fair amount of knowledge but too arrogant to follow through and gain a true UNDERSTANDING. I'm not trying to imply that I have a true understanding of ANYTHING, only that I'm open to all possibilities while at the same time maintaining the integrity of my paradigm so far. Tell me, do Muslim men in Yemen who won't wait until their child bride has her first period to have sex with them disgust you as well? Or do you respect their religious right to molest children? At any rate I respect your right to not be rational. Stay in school...Don't do drugs. - Comment on you Are under Surveillance (2008-09-11 19:09:43)
Puulaahi, Better things to do? Like saving the world? Do you embody the change you want to see? Seeing only what you want to see does not make it so ( well sort of, but not like you think). So I think that I cannot trust you, because I don't know you personally, and don't have the time to get to know you. This motivates you to become a criminal how? According to my thinking we all have the POTENTIAL to become or behave criminally (which isn't what you think I said), a hippo has the potential to fuck you up. Will it? Maybe... if you give it the opportunity. Does this make all hippos mankillers? No matter how intrusive technology allows our government to become, certain things are gone forever, Slavery, Segregation, Burning at the stake. As a species we have made considerable progress in the last fifty years, but I will not blindly trust in mans' inherent goodness just because I want to believe in it. Criminals are created by harsh conditions of living combined with a lack of critical thinking(poor crime) or unbalanced societal standards of behavior related to the maintenance of a bourgeois lifestyle, AND a lack of critical thinking (rich crime), NOT BY OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS. I'm sorry you won't or CAN'T debate it with me, because the essential liberties of which you speak would not exist, if it weren't for open discourse concerning the nature of humanity. I don't have an agenda, I'm not interested in whether or not I can out think you. I do not crave recognition or respect. I'm on a fantastic journey through space and time, calling it as I see it. You are welcome to do the same, If you can.
