I did not post the video, i posted a link, to look at it was your choice or not. I thought at the time, and still think, that ignoring the problem will not make it go away, and that by gaining knowlage you gain power.He was a non-combatant.
For the argument that we know what it is without witnessing it, i think not.I might of thought i understood it before i watched it, and was filled with some small amount of anger at it's mention. But i could not visualise its evil, or imagine it's effect on me.
After watching the video, i could not think.my breath came in small gasps.my mouth was dry, my pulse racing, my stomach sick. i did not sleep well last night.Watching a fellow American(he looked like my nieghbor! For Godsake he WAS our nieghbor!!!!) die like that has left me empty. I thought about it all today and tried to talk it out with my wife and co-workers. Did little to help. All the supposed reasons for this war finally hit home in one gut wrenching blow: Above all else, this is a Religous war. They will not quit untill we kill them, and kill them we should do.
Dont quote Scripture to me, i am a lay leader in the Methodist Church and active in the Salvation Army. I know My Lord and My God, And have to live with what i am about to say and feel. For every one American non-combatant that these demons killed, i would kill ten tahwid or al-answar or whatever they call themselves family members, kill them like dogs shot down in the street, and send THAT video to al-jezzera.
Luke 21,verse 22

I will however leave you with this in the context of your tone towards me. Your frustration with these demons is appreciated, albeit misdirected and over salted
Colossians 4 5Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. 6Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.
Steve, apologies if my words upset you - it was however, my opinion
For every one American non-combatant that these demons killed, i would kill ten tahwid or al-answar or whatever they call themselves family members, kill them like dogs shot down in the street, and send THAT video to al-jezzera.
IMO - depends if you are fighting for a lasting peace or retribution. If its a true peace, of God and Jesus Christ, pass the bannana clip....we are after all given permission by God to hate evil.
