"Homicide" Bombers? You watch too much Fox News.
If theye were to go into the middle of a large field and yell "allah akbar" and press the button then they would be suicide bombers, when their key purpose is to kill others then it is considered a homocide.
Yes but 'homicide bomber' is an idiotic redundant phrase created by fox spinsters in attempt to counter the hallowed and respected ( ) phrase 'suicide bomber'--'suicide' being an adjective to distinguish them from bombers who set off bombs remotely (the more common type of bomber). 'Homicide bombers' is akin to calling an animal a 'meat-eating carnivore'. It's inane.

Anything that isn't arab-coddling seems like a bad idea now, hm? It's quite possible to be a "suicide bomber", but not a homicide bomber. When your goal is to kill people, and your death is just another glorious benefit of following shithead Allah, it's a HOMICIDE bomb.

Brilliant retort . Did you even bother to read what I wrote? I imagine not. 'Bomber' is fine, but 'homicide bomber' is fucking retarded spsinster garbage that insults the audience's intelligence level.

Do you think that a term for someone who kills a large group of people, as well as himself, would be "suicide" or "homicide"? Since the definition of what these fuck-for-brain,camelfuckers are trying to achieve is killing other people, homicide is the causal factor. It's great, in their sick camelfucking minds, that they are dying, but the point of it isn't to kill themselves, it's to kill others. "bombers" would be OK, but "suicide" bombers certainly isn't as apt as "homicide" bombers, is it?

Here's another one, they brought theocracies back in style.
-------------------- To call humans 'rational beings' does injustice to the term, 'rational.' Humans are capable of rational thought, but it is not their essence. Humans are animals, beasts with complex brains. Humans, more often than not, utilize their cerebrum to rationalize what their primal instincts, their preconceived notions, and their emotional desires have presented as goals - humans are rationalizing beings.

WRONG! I work next door to a massive mosque which takes around 300 Muslims in for prayer 5 times a day and numerous others inbetween. These are mainstream Muslims (not the small minority).
300 is not a massive mosque BTW. 300 whole muslims? you made this assesment after from 300 muslims out of the billion that are world wide. FYI, I live about 15 minutes from the largest concentration of arabs in the US (Dearborn, MI) are they living in the middle east? Mainstrem muslims live in the middle east. Quote:

The community I live in (a borough in the midst of a major city) is made up of probably 40-50% muslims, living side by side with Christians, Hindus and basically every faith including Pagans, Heathens and the Damned Faithless.
they aren't in the Middle east, answer the question, what have they contributed to society? Quote:

no, homocide bomber is what they are, Aristotilian law again, "a" is "a" things are what they are. Giving them a fluffy name doesn't make it so.

A bit off topic here, apologies... but when you speak or post like the above example, it makes you sound like a regular on the Jerry Springer Show. (In other words, very uneducated, full of hatred and bigotry, etc...) Any valid point that you might have made has been lost because of the slang wording and vulgarities used. I understand that the topic is emotional, but falling to the level of calling others camelfuckers, ragheads, or any other stereotypical name puts you on the same level as the people spouting about infidels and evil empires.
I am not trying to call you down for this, nor am I asking you to change your wording. You didn't attack a poster, but a topic, which is all that I do ask. I just wanted to give some food for thought... if you want to be taken seriously by others.
Ok... back on topic...

modern Contributions to man:
Dinosaurs: Oil Muslims: Homocide bombers, Shoe bombers, the bomb jacket, jihad, the burkha and theocracies.
wow, there sure is a lot of progressive contributions,
I also like how noone knows what they contributed or wants to change the subject. Most cultures have contributed something positive to the world in the last 100 years, how can it be that the muslim culture hasn't, I don't believe it.

A majority (and i only use the word majority becuase 99.99999999999999999999999% of terrorism is caused by these dosile people) of terrorism is perpetuated by, yep you guessed it, muslims doing it in the name of islam and allah. We know this, it's no surprise, but what is the point of this culture? While I don't hate muslims (the average muslim who holds the beliefs that "allah" supposedly teaches, which is a small minority.) I do dind it harder and harder to understand what their goal is as a culture. The one goal I know they have is the elimination of Jews and those that are allied with them (Zionists, infedels or what other key phrases that ignorant people use) for the mere reason they aren't them. Aside from perfecting terror, killing and general unrest, what has the middle east contributed to modern day society? What inventions are they coming up with to provide it's people with an easier life? I honestly don't know. I know the culture of old came up with many inventions concerning math and science, astonomy etc. but I fail to see what they have done. One last thing, what's up with all the dancing the muslims seem to do everytime they do something they perceive as good? I mean they're just jumping up and down...weird.

Most of the advances in the last 100 years are based on advanced science, which is difficult to do when you are represented by mostly 3rd world nations that are much more interested in "burning witches" than in science.
I could make a pretty strong argument that none of the advances discovered in the last 100 years would have been posible without contributions from the arab world... it is just that the arab world contributions are much older.

But the question is not what have arabs contributed, but what have those who follow the Religion of Peace? contributed. Mohammed was born in AD 571 and died in AD 632.
Stuff discovered by pre-Islamic Arabs isn't under discussion here.

... conning oil away? Example please.
... installing dictators? I would have used different terminology: supported leadership which had interests that were in line with American government ideologies.

not trying to send my topic into right field but the Mayan, Azteks and other South American cultures (Pre-Columbian)were using math, astronomy and engineering at the same time if not before the arabs were. So saying that there would be no advances would be premature.
