mikeboy Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I just cant believe people would kill and be killed for something as unimportant in our daily life as religion, I mean, really, how many of you go to church every sunday? how many of you turn down the pleasure of a woman because it is a sin? I have had good friends killed and injured because of this! god damnit some people make me mad! extremism is pure evil! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azadre Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 This could get very ugly, but luckily, this is not real life. If Allah willed, the entire United States Army would be stricken with an uncurable disease. But, what's an enternity of hell for a good American? As for the soldier, I would rather he not be there as he probably has no intentions of murder and conquest, but as an invader it is the duty of the citizens of to attack. I would attack anyone that invaded the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RootWind Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Not real life? You do realize that these soldiers are out there risking their lives for 'U.S. citizens' like YOU? Unbelievable...LOL :laugh: 586220521[/snapback] You do understand they are technically no longer risking their lives for "U.S. citizens" but for Iraqi citizens.

5Horizons Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Awesome! I'm glad that little "attack" didn't work. Shooting a medic is cowardly and it's good that the tables got turned on the sniper.

Video_9 Posted July 15, 2005 Author Share Posted July 15, 2005 This is the problem with the War on Terror. We do not do a good enough job convincing people that this is a war on insurgents, and not on religion. WRONG! The whole world is being attacked not by random insurgents/terrorist that have no connection, but by Radical muslims who want to kill everyone in the name of THEIR GOD. There SOLE purpose to kill is because of religion. This is a war agianst radical muslims who wish to kill nonbelievers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just said it yourself, the WoT is on insurgents (who are fighting in the name of religion), not on the religion itself. Of course there are tons of people out there that can't understand this and label the religion as the killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

former1 Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 FREAKIN AWESOME.Allah akhbar...Allah akhbar... 586220449[/snapback] You do realise that you just witnessedan attempt to take someones life. What kind of sick ###### are you to call that awesome? It's people like you that make humanity such a ****ing disgrace. I'm sick of people thinking war is cool, when will they open their eyes and realise that innocent people are dieing! How a man can watch someone defenceless, without prior knowledge of an attack being made on him is beyond me. The level of cowardice that man must have, I just can't believe it. I hope he's fine, and that he doesn't meet any other close encounters. P.S Sorry if it seems harsh but it's the attitude of people like Unwonted, that really gets to me.

Jim K Global Moderator Posted July 16, 2005 Global Moderator Share Posted July 16, 2005 and to add to my original comment... if the tables were reversed and the American soldier was actually an insurgent and the insurgent was an American soldier... do you think the American soldier would be alive today? Though wounded...the American solider would have faced death by whatever sick means the insurgents would have wanted. The insurgent would have never handcuffed him and provided medical aid. That is one example why these evil people are slandering Islam and Allah...which they truly do not fight for (but against). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeSoul Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 The sad thing is some people who posted on this thread think that when suicide bombers say Allah o Akbar it means they are representing the religion of Islam. The religion of Islam in arabic means peace. In the Quran its mentioned that Killing yourself, Killing a civilian even in war or degrading your own religion in the name of your religion will lead you in Hell. Then some people will say these people are killing because the Quran say defend your religion by giving your life. It would be stupid for anyone to think that applies to insurgents, What the Quran says is that if someone is against the religion of Islam and the enemies intent is to end Islam as a religion then it is the right of the Muslim not to attack first but to defend Islam by being willing to be beaten up and dying by people who hate muslims (serbia and yugoslavia is a great example). And people here in the west who think that the version of Islam followed by the insurgents is Islam in general they should either shut up or they should study some religious history not by politicians or analysts or pundists but by historians and religious people who have some respect for the other religion. Islam Judaism and Christianity follow the same God the only difference being Jews didnt accept thier reformation in Jesus but they can still go to heaven if they were not taught properly and/or they commit right deeds. Christians didnt accept "The Prophet" according to old testament but they can and will still go to heaven if they believe in one God and do good deeds and Muslims will go to heaven if they believe in one God and Muhammad as his messenger and if he does good deeds. There is no compulsion in religion according to God, Allah, Yahweh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninjamunky Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 Although it's amazing, and fantastic, I hate to say it, but it was probably like an AK-47 on single fire with a cheaply made scope LOL. Well, maybe not that exactly, but something the likes of that. Now, an M82... I think that would have shattered the vest, killed him, and possibly continued out the other side. If you don't know what an M82 is, do a Google image search for it. And if I feel like it, maybe I'll head into America's Army and take some footage with one.

A Barret M82A1 wouldn't have shattered the vest... it would've just passed through it and shattered the armor on the soldiers back. Dragunovs aren't bad weapons, just bad when put in the hands of an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjamunky Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 Yes, I had thought about the Dragunov, and I knew that it wasn't the M82. Learned that form the game, America's Army, in fact. Everyone is US Army, but if you pick up an opfor sniper's gun it's either a Mosin Nagant I think it was or a Dragunov SVD, it just depends if they had the M24 or M82 slot. It's interesting, I never would have known this if it weren't for the Army's game LOL. Also, what was the soldier doing? He looked almost as if he was wearing a full kevlar mask LOL, or was his head tilted down or what? The sniper probably would have had a better chance if he had hit the neck area, where the vest and helmet don't cover. I always hated the Dragunov in-game because of the scope, it had arrows and crap rather than a crosshair. By the way, I was just comparing the power of the unkown rifle used and the M82 in my initial post. The M82, you'd be able to land a hit and bring someone down even if they were wearing armor. VERY powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
