There's no such thing as a Christian soldier. Jesus was a pacifist who taught that all men are brothers and should love each other. If you have a spirit of violence within you, if you hate anyone, or desire to kill anyone, you have not the spirit of Christ within you. When you feel love, empathy, sympathy, compassion and understanding, that is Christ working in you, by whatever name you choose to call it. If you have love for your enemies, you are a Christian. If not, you are not. Period.

That is what American governments are and is doing. So every nation has a turn, now is their turn, let them do what ever they like to us, but when our turn comes, then we will just give them back what ever they lend us, Not more and not less. In the main time

We must have a sabbar. Alaa inna nasrallahil qariib

[canab1973]

Allah S.W said in the Quran 59:2: It is He who expelled the ones who disbelieved among the People of the Scripture from their homes at the first gathering. You did not think they would leave, and they thought that their fortresses would protect them from Allah; but [the decree of] Allah came upon them from where they had not expected, and He cast terror into their hearts [so] they destroyed their houses by their [own] hands and the hands of the believers. So take warning, O people of vision.

Hey bro,

At leasts there is "some" justice in the supreme court (with the exception of the DC Gun Ban {did that get passed btw?} ).

I heard on the news, that the Supreme Courts say that ALL alleged terrorists deserve a trial under the constitution. There fore Enemy Combatants/ Enemy Of the State labeled US Citizens under Homeland Security's ENDGAME, PATRIOT Act, should be getting fair trials.

I think all of the detainees should sue the American government. I don't know if this is legally possible, and of course it would be very expensive. Perhaps lawyers could volunteer their time, or a legal defense fund could be raised. There has to be some justice served...it's so frustrating to think that nobody will be held responsible for the terrible ordeal these people went through.
