you're right. the story you posted made me sick.

the fact that right wing blogs are taking up the case of someone who advocates throwing out the geneva convention and nuking civilian populations is more than a little disheartening.

The Geneva convention covers uniformed personal. Are we to presume a long beard and head scarf are now uniforms? I don't think so.

When a religion, any religion's holy book and doctrine preaches “Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war” there is a problem and not just with said religion's militants.

On the Geneva convention:

Does anybody else find the idea of "rules" in war amusing?

Goes right up there with the U.N. "strongly condemning" the action of a state and then either doing nothing or using a disproportional number of U.S. troops for whatever action is selected. But what do you guys want for your 23% support of that inept and useless organization.
