I don't get this. Why do political leaders allow this? How can anyone "peaceful" promote/accept this? Beheading is horrifying yet "Islam Online" published a gruesome poem detailing how to behead a human being. http://frontpagemagazine.com/Articles/Read.aspx?GUID=4793D07C-A7AE-439F-8B9E-54F345BF6F77 They say suicide bombings are not suicide.

Death row inmates are there for a reason--usually for heinous crimes. Muslims sawing innocent people's heads off is completely different. And throwing homosexuals off buildings is abominable. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
In the case of the House of Saud, close friends of HW Bush and firm ally of the US (at least until recent Chinese developments), it's what they've always done. It's worked so far. The Uzbekistan and Kyrgystan and Turkmenistan thugocracies have less tradition, but similar motives.
People are you genetically predisposed to be unable to condemn beheadings? You condemn the supposed hypocricy but not the beheadings?
You're talking about punishing convicted criminals of heinous crimes. I'm talking about sawing an innocent person's head off. Like Nick Berg. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
No. I want to know why anyone would support decapitating an INNOCENT human being? I want to know why Islam thinks this is ok? I want you to tell me why you don't denounce it? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
It helps. Kind of like what Saddam was doing, after the US helped put him in power. Or Columbia, more recently. Tyranny and terrorization tends to adopt the same basic techniques, world over. The Christians, in South Africa, had an interesting wrinkle called "necklacing" - jamming a person into a car tire, filling it with gasoline, and lighting it.
Nope. Not good enough. That Iran thing was an innocent mistake. I want you to tell me why it's ok for Muslims to saw the heads off of innocent people. And no spin please.
Innocent mistake? They got MEDALS for it. Beheading is good. Also, slower than cluster bombs and air raids, lower casualty count. Read what Dr Chapman said. And innocent is a state of mind. e.g. what was this guy guilty of, do you know? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Or this guy? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Its the official opinion. And I use it on all my rats, cleanest way to kill. Can't get any more innocent than my rats.
I'm serious. I want you to tell me why you support sawing the head off of an innocent human being. No spin.
Why do you support the killing and incarceration and torture of millions? No spin. What do you think of an American military woman taking pictures with a man tortured to death? A torture and death in which she was complicit? How do you sleep knowing 70,000 other people are in the same position, none of whom have been charged with any crime?
Which political leader? Weren't these "freelance" jihadists? Islam isn't a person. Although the Koran does allow for some kinds of warfare, the implementation of it is a matter of personal interpretation.
No and No. I'm not talking about abortion. I'm talking about muslims who support sawing innocent people's heads off.
On a more serious note: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feud#Vendetta_history Beheading as a form of justice is part of the disdain for authority that is endemic to the Pashtuns and Arab tribes. When deprived of a justice system, they go back to the "blood for blood" "khoon ka badla khoon" system that is typical (and historically present) in all such societies Traditionally, beheading is considered the most honorable form of death in such societies An honourable death IOW, if you fuck with their legal systems, expect unsavory consequences. As an aside, blood feuds have been present in all societies where kinship is the final authority. examples include Scotland, Ireland, Japan, Latin American and Asian societies.
Nick Berg didn't do ANYTHING to anyone. He went to Iraq to help. Tell me why it was ok for a muslim to saw his head off, hold it up for video, and then brag about it?
