ALL of the photos I posted were of mass demos - all of them had ordinary muslims out demonstrating against ISIS

all of the photos were gleaned from news articles reporting what happened and who was there - which is where my captions came from.
But how do you know they were?

You won't find me defending any jihadists. You can check 10,000 text messages if you want.

Many thousands of messages ago, someone (Spotty?) explained there were two meanings to Jihad. One - the more important - was the inner personal struggle to live a decent religious life. The lesser one was struggle against the enemies of Islam. Saladin was a lesser jihadist of whom historians say good things.

What a lovely bunch of people!

We should use every weapon we have to dispose of every last man and woman until this bunch of murderers is exterminated!

Maybe the liberal minded will wake up to the fact there are some really bad people out there and giving them bunches of candy and talking nice to them ain't never going to work, hobo's way would work :mrgreen:

Interesting question. I don't think it's been answered either.

Shame.

Clearly.

I am suspicious of your invitation to check out 10,000 of your messages to ascertain whether you may have supported jihadists. I have not gone through every one of your 16,000+ postings but you may well have something to hide in the 6,000+ you did not mention Mohamed el Arabi mit Sauerkraut. Busted. Ha!

Oh dear.

No need to analyse everything you know. Especially as you are usually so coherent and all.

what ? War on Iraq 2 was not the first ever war . and countries have 'changed sides' between them .

writing a "ooh , this is ironic" smugathon to the socialist worker or whatever is not witty or true. don't even know why that kinda shit gets printed, it's like the paper thinks we've never heard irony before.

it's like the correspondent believes that GOD/Science created the universe then for eons nowt happened til george bush jr got elected.

similar to some not remembering what football was like before 1992.
