Great. Now I have to feel guilty about being responsible for your death.

No idea.

Older Israeli model.

Probably outfitted for an air show.

Some were used as bogies by the US Navy.

I like the sound of “USS Kaafir” for a battleship with 16” guns that does nothing but sail the Med shelling mad dogs on the eastern and southern shores.

For most Mualims, ‘kaafir’ is the word used to substitute for ‘non-Muslim’.

It will be a hilarious sight to see how a Muslim reacts to being called a non-Muslim, by a non-Muslim.

I think it was the movie Blood Diamond where Leo DiCaprio uses this word and is scolded by the female lead.

Of course I had to look it up.

I don't know how "strong" or "offensive" it really is.

I've seen "kaffir" written many times.

"Kaafir", not so much.

Guess it depends on who is saying it in a rap video.

Transliterating from Arabic can be problematic. Witness Gaddafi.

Kufir are banned from the Islamic supremacist cities of mecca and medina under penalty of death.

How’s that for “tolerance”, “diversity”, and “moderate Islam”?
