‘It was a children’s soccer game. Of course he knew he was going to kill children
Washington Post ^ | 04/08/2016 | Liz Sly

The suicide bomber who blew up a youth soccer match late last month left barely a dent in the hard, dry earth, and only a faint scorch on a concrete wall nearby.

But he gouged a chasm of grief in the heart of the small community that lost more than two dozen of its sons in a single moment, at 6:15 on the evening of March 25.

A total of 43 people died in the bombing at the game, according to figures provided by the local government. Of those, 29 were boys younger than 17 who had either been participating in the match or watching their friends play.

I sincerely hope so.

Since the Western World, China and Russia have the real nuclear power, we can finally use that power to wipe out the terrorist religion from the face of the earth.

The single reason the world has tolerated it is due to oil.

If Obama had kept a few thousand US troops in Iraq, ISIS would not be in there.

It wouldn't have mattered. They will always be there because they are everywhere. Hamas, the Taliban, Hezbollah, ISIS, Al Queda, part and parcel of the same thing.

Pakistan was the one on Easter. This is a different abomination.

“They will always be there because they are everywhere.”

I can’t agree with that. Cockroaches will also always be there, but if you live in a city apartment you can either do nothing and let them infest and overrun it or you can fight like hell and hold them at bay.

Western civilization can either fight Islam or submit to it. What we’ve done in Iraq and the entire Middle East and what we’re doing with our immigration policy is the equivalent of leaving open bags of garbage out in a Manhattan apartment.

Leaving “a few thousand” troops in Iraq wouldn’t have stopped the formation of ISIS.

Whatever Bush2 did in Iraq only stirred the crap pot. Same with Afghanistan.

We need to stop playing games. Take off the gloves. And blast Islam from the face of the planet. If a billion or even two billion die in the effort SO BE IT.

There are ≈1.3 billion muslims on the planet.

Our very survival requires that we kill n muslims, where n is a number between 0 and 1.3 billion. It is defined as the number necessary to kill for the remainder, 1,300,000,000-n to forswear violence as a means of religious debate.

WE don't set the value of n.

THEY set the value of n...

Muslims killing Muslims. Don’t think I can’t care enough. Actually, puts a smile on my face. The killing of the youth of Islam.

The story takes seven paragraphs to get to the where. Time to tie most of our “journalists” into a canvas bag, drop them in the ocean, and start over.

Islam is an evil ideology. It has no place in free western cultures and is an anathema to the US Constitution.

Go Tribe Erudite! You have a point. In this game they have already set the n value at 1.3 billion. We should help them match that.

Cockroaches will also always be there...

Yet that hardly explains the horror of an attack that inevitably would kill children.

More infidel pablum on the Sunni Shiite rift.
The article states the killed children were Shiites, and the killer was a Isis (Sunni) operative.

Little Shiites grow up to be big Shiites.
All Shiites are heretics to fundamental Muslims. -Tom

After we “liberated” Iraq and swelled up with puffed ourselves up with pride at all those purple stained fingers the newly formed Iraqi government set about passing laws.

One of the most hotly debated was whether one sect of the cult, doesn’t matter which one, should declare the other legally apostate and write that into their constitution.

They’ll never stop killing each other. And the only way they’ll stop killing us is for us to kill so many of them that they no longer dare attack us.

this will not end until we end the entity that causes the brainwashing of people to perform inhuman deeds like this. that entity is Islam.

do you have an executable plan to "end Islam"?

we can grab ther attention one quick way like we did to Japan in ww2. 1 nuke on mecca

On August 6, 1945 at 7:45 AM, while the Enola Gay was still on the way to Hiroshima, we had already killed 2 million Japanese soldiers and sailors, killed over a million civilians, burned central Tokyo to the ground along with Nagoya, Yokohama, Kobe, and Osaka, and sunk 686 ships of the Japanese Navy as well as 2,346 merchant ships.

AND, after Hiroshima, they STILL didn't want to surrender.

The twin nuclear attacks on Japan put a period on the massive, unprecedented military and civilian destruction visited on them from 1942-1945. But those two attacks did not end the war on their own. If Hiroshima had been bombed on December 8, 1941, the war would not have ended.

The sad thing is that that "magic number" wasn't too big in 2001, and our weakness, cowardice, and stupidity has multiplied it more than an hundredfold since then.
