I also avoid discussing something I do not really know much about.<br /><br />Speaking of politics, though I cannot vote, the socialists are out of Spain so I am in a good mood today.D Charles QChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805304737361014277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-72807503801117090072011-11-22T07:25:36.733-06:002011-11-22T07:25:36.733-06:00D Charles,

My question is what m..."you do the math"<br /><br />My question is what math is that? <br /><br />When one only counts odd numbers the result always result in something large, exciting but obviously wrong.<br /><br />Why do I continue to harp on this issue, simple actually. There is a real issue out there, dangerous and linked to terrorism. However, any exagerations and questionable sourcing only results in mistargetting, unjust accussations, unjustified collateral damage and feeding the real radicals the exact examples they give to their followers.<br /><br />Some need a real math lesson.D Charles QChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805304737361014277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-43703933860255254252011-11-21T07:18:22.008-06:002011-11-21T07:18:22.008-06:00While reading D Charles's comment a quote came...While reading D Charles's comment a quote came to mind<br /><br />"In vain he thrusts his fists against the posts and still insists he sees the ghosts."<br /><br />Islam is on the rise worldwide and they do not practice tolerance...you do the math.blogginatornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-19127874929550173002011-11-18T21:53:30.107-06:002011-11-18T21:53:30.107-06:00While the west sleeps, the muslims do as islamists...While the west sleeps, the muslims do as islamists always have.MathewKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14385674205383405783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-23137903835897648132011-11-17T20:39:26.762-06:002011-11-17T20:39:26.762-06:00Don't we have US troops there now?

There are many players and many agendas all milking each others' abuses for their own agendas and truth is the first victim.<br /><br />The terrorist group wants to unite all of Nigeria under Sharia, at least three groups in the south want to "eliminate" all Muslims, the huge evangalist groups want to exagerate to get prayers (and cash) from other Christians around the world via simpathy and the bulk of the population (both Christian and Muslim) just want to get on with their lives and wish all the radicals from both sides would simply leave them alone.<br /><br />Exagerations all round does nobody any favour, it stops the necessary concentration on the real and existing problems of a number of terror groups in the north, pirates in the south, corruption all around and economic stupidity forced upon it by those nasty despots called "The World Bank".<br /><br />A last comment, I think Compass Direct started off with a great idea but has become a pawn to big money within certain far-right religous denominations and the quality of some the reports are questionable. They were burnt badly in the eyes of established organisations when the Copts of Egypt told them to stop publishing trash pushed by Assyrian American groups that exagerated and exploited issues there for their own financial gain. Though the issue in Nigeria is basically correct, the context in this article is also bit skewered to give an image that is also exagerated and one-sided. Most violence in Nigeria is inter-tribe and between cattle-hearders versus farmers but when the victims are Christian it is news but when the victims are Muslim or it is Christian versus Christian, it is not. The reality is that the terrorists and provocatuers try very hard but so does the agendas of others.D Charles QChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805304737361014277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-41553068400626723552011-11-17T17:19:09.022-06:002011-11-17T17:19:09.022-06:00Funny thing, I've been seeing ads on TV lately...Funny thing, I've been seeing ads on TV lately promoting Kenya, and showing lovey-dovey images of sweet darling native people.

The same thing is going on in Kenya where Obama's cousin Odinga is mixing it up with his neighbors and is doing who knows what, because precious little is being reported. No one is interested in the posts I did, so I gave up on it. Obama is dropping drones in six countries but who cares.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-15877372347342972392011-11-17T06:21:52.757-06:002011-11-17T06:21:52.757-06:00Nothin' like a good old fashioned massacre for...Nothin' like a good old fashioned massacre for Allah!Silverfiddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13541652236676260219noreply@blogger.com
