Arab man sets himself on Fire at the White House

Fox

[NormB]

I am just plain getting sick of the limp wristed approach at fighting people who want us all dead...

[sheik yerbouty]

You bet!

[Valin]

That's a smokin' story! Hot off the presses!

GROAN!!!

[ApesForEvolution]

Hey, I remember the first time I laughed at a FREAKING RETARD that chose to a)make a statement, b)attempt suicide and c)do a & b in public.

I laughed at him too...for weeks. We have to discourage others from copy-catting.

If it ain't cool, they won't drool...Roasty O&O!

[NormB]

It is so tempting to rip Jorge, but for the good of FR I am done.

[Jorge]

Either you're for us or against us Jorge. What team you want to play for?

Can't I be for US and not want to laugh at people lighting themselves on fire?
What kind of people do we want to be?

I am not God. He is choosing to kill himself, thus rejecting the gift of life and denying his humanity.

No. He is a human being making the tragic mistake of trying to kill himself.
Even our police do all they can to prevent people from committing suicide. They don't write them off as non-humans.
Much less laugh at them.

There is no need to minimize my evil hyena like laughter. I am glad you understand though, you sheep herder.

"Sheep herder". Can you say "ouch"?

I never actually suggested he was in the planes you moron. I said the SAME TRASH. Learn the language.

I wish I was half as articulate as you.

Grabbing at straws? Yeah, right. You are the one playing defence here, moron, not me. You would be the one grasping at camel hair.

So we have "sheep herder", "moron", "moron", BUT "camel hair"? How can I ever defend against this?

Where was your sorrow at hearing of the WTC attack I wonder. Are you even American? I think not.

Wow. We are really all over the map now aren't we?

What the hell does this nonsense have to do with anything?

So kiss it, and kiss off. You are obviously an uneducated anti-american retard. Oh no, more name calling, shame on me!

Nothing was more shameful than your hyena-like laughter at the suffering of the man who lit himself on fire.

I have thick skin and could care less about your infantile name-calling at me.

I'm sure no one could possibly be more "educated" and clever than you are.

Jorge, even God allows us to rejoice in victory over evildoers.

If the evildoer saves us the trouble of killing him by killing himself, c'est la guerre.

Kind of reminds me of "Life of Brian" and the "crack suicide squad."

[Jorge]

ya comprende? Lo que.... I am about?

[Jorge]

Jorge, even God allows us to rejoice in victory over evildoers.

Yes, but God says he takes no joy in the death of the wicked.
Winning is one thing. Taking pleasure in, or laughing at the suffering of others, even your enemies is not pleasing to God.

[MissAmericanPie]

Does anyone know the purpose for his self emulation? Was he trying to make a statement that he prefers lighter work?

[injin]

yes, you might want to read this article :

it's a really sad story (as told) actually...it would seem that if we (the USA) want to penetrate these terrorist cells and gather the good will of non-radical Moslems , like this guy, we might want to take alot better care of them when they work for us . Obviously they put a whole lot on the line if they help us . We should really do right with them.

I don't want to register to read Washington Post articles, but thanks for the info.

[Shortstop7]

I didn't see Fox today......but I'm so tired of them "harping on" about Powell. Good Lord, who didn't expect that to happen? I think it will be for the best. Condi is smart, classy and stands by the President. Much as I liked Powell, I always had the feeling his heart wasn't really in it. His wife doesn't want him involved in politics, not that I blame her for that.

"Taking pleasure in, or laughing at the suffering of others, even your enemies is not pleasing to God."

We're up against a subtle, but vital, distinction there.

We're not talking about taking pleasure in this loon's suffering, but rather mocking his ridiculous behavior.

Cool....Get out the hot dogs and marshmallows!!...maybe some smores?

[tomtuttle]

Excellent recruitment and trianing advertisement:

This is your brain ...

This is your brain on Islam ...

But I am bothered about the blatant disregard for private property, by defacing the manicured White House lawn.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Why burn yourself near the White House?

It's hard to get into the mind of a nutcase as to the reasons why.

[American in Israel]

So glad you can totally relate to this poor nutcase, now go give your matches to your mommy please.

Sometimes laughing is smarter than crying. But never fear, in time someone always pees in the pool.

[Tarpaulin]

"What kind of people do we want to be?"

Do you feel this same level of compassion for Mohammed Atta?

[hershey]

Didn't they just reopen this street to pedestrians? Sigh. Well, this fool exercised his free speech rights. We should be happy he wasn't equipped with a bomb belt, but that horror is coming.
