the religion of peace ...... which one is it? muslims blow up markets with suicide vests, jews return evil with ten times the evil and christians relabel dead women and children as "collateral damage"
Islam certainly isn't a "religion of peace":

https://www.thebereancall.org/content/april-2002-q-and-a-2

"Islam is “peace and tolerance”? Never has such a blatant and destructive lie been believed by so many. Every Christian must see that this lie is refuted and the truth about Islam made known as widely as possible. Otherwise the consequences will be horrible beyond our imagination."
 
What has that got to do with anything Crossnote? Are my words invalid because some professed religious people fight??? I am NOT the one condoning revenge attacks, nor violence amongst religious people.

Christianity has one of the bloodiest histories of any religion. Islam is similar. Hindus have gone to war. Ancient Egyptian Maat's golden rule was 'do not to the other what you do not want to be done to you' and yet Egyptians kept slaves and went to war several times.

Buddhist people are no different. Some of them fight against the precepts of their own religion.

The fact that it happens does not negate anything I've said. Whomever kills, no-matter what religion, army or group they belong to, is a killer. The fact that religions fight only compounds the issue of revenge killing and endless war. It is no less disgusting because one or another does it.
Anyone murdering, especially so called church groups, are not Christian though they may call themselves such.

The replies to this thread are absolutely disgusting, people asking for the blood of huge numbers of people in retaliation for these killings. I can tell you that to go through a trauma and have family members hurt or killed in war doesn't bring a person to want more bloodshed; exactly the opposite in fact.

There is something seriously wrong when a group of people who are supposed to be arbiters of peace, forebearance, forgiveness, kindness and loving those in opposition
Such self-righteousness.
You know for a fact every one of them are committed to such?

shout for the needless murder of innocents in retaliation for the killings of innocents.

These Israeli families suffered, as do the Palestinian families and all those who have lost sons, mothers, daughters, fathers, sisters and brothers, too. You people might call yourselves arbiters of justice but there is no justice in murdering innocents in retaliation for the murder of innocents.

There was no justice when over a million Iraqi and Afghan civilians died during this War on Terror after the attacks and there'll be no justice if however many Palestinians or Israelis die in this war. War begets war begets war begets war. It never ends if eye for eye mentality is allowed to prevail, and those who suffer most are those who don't want any part of it, while bureaucrats plot the destruction and murder of innocents and while soldiers in armies put their lives on the line, and while these Palestinian fighters fight back. Nobody wins when innocent people are being slaughtered.
You paint with a broad and simplistic brush.

There are no winners.
Those who have prevented domination by their enemies would disagree with you.

The Israelis are as bad as any other, and you shouldn't set them on a moral pedestal. America, the UK, Russia, the Afghan militia, the Taliban, the Israeli government, the Palestinian fighters, ETA, the IRA, the French army, NATO, the Iraqi military, whatever, all those
who've contributed to war and the killing of innocent people are every bit as equal in that they kill and fight incessantly,
spending lives for 'peace' when peace will never come by forcing it on people, or killing for a cause when the killing only strengthens opposition.
So in the name of "not contributing to war," you choose not resisting, and domination by, your enemies.

It's pointless, futile and horrible and you are like the mob with sticks cheering on the execution.
What is pointless and futile is your simplistic broad brush.

You've made me feel sick.
You haven't come to grips with evil, the nature of a fallen world, and
the resistance to evil necessary for independence and freedom.

War is about so much more than insuring a quiet life.

It's about freedom from domination by one's agressors.

Freedom is not free. It is bought with blood and treasure.

We see that most vividly in the cross.

Elin, you're an idiot. And your saviour would be ashamed of you.

From God's mouth to your ear. . .

Is he your Savior also?
If not, you are in no position to speak for him.

i haven't seen this mentioned yet...but there is a related story that we should also be following...

shortly after the three kidnapped israelis were found dead...the burnt body of an israeli arab teenager was also found... israeli law enforcement currently suspects that he was murdered as a retribution for the deaths of the three young israeli jews...

israeli arabs are furious over this apparent murder and there has been widespread rioting and violence in the past few days...one can only hope they are just as offended by the senseless murder of those three israeli jews...

netanyahu has called the murder of the arab teenager 'abominable' and promised to bring the killers to justice...many other israeli leaders have also condemned the murder...and the families of the three murdered israeli jews have spoken out against any attempts at revenge killings...

an expert police task force has been assigned to the case...

this morning i read a report that the israeli police arrested six suspects in the case of the murder of the arab teenager...they admit to being in the area at the time of the murder but they deny having anything to do with it...

whoever is found guilty of this murder should be given just as harsh a punishment as people demanded for the murder of those three israeli jewish boys...

I agree mi amiga :)
 
Perhaps someone else is a bit misinformed.... Here is more hatefulness from the "religion of pieces" in the Netherlands:

Not News: Muslims Hold Pro-ISIS Rally, Chant “Down, Down USA!” And Call For Massacre of Jews – News: In The Netherlands… | Weasel Zippers

"Holding up the black ISIS flag, the crowd chanted in Arabic, “Jews, remember Khaybar, the army of Muhammad is returning.” The cry relates to an event in the seventh century when Muslims massacred and expelled Jews from the town of Khaybar, in modern-day Saudi Arabia."

Nothing much changes as they have long hateful memories.
 
I like Elin and she makes a stand on the truth.....and belittling her will speak volumes to your maturity (or lack thereof) and attitude dude!

I don't care who you like or don't like. The revenge attitude is wrong, and you'll see that at some point.
