Object: 16 year old girl hanged in Iran
Sick bastards.
23 July 2006
EXCLUSIVE: HANGED FROM A CRANE AGED 16
EXCLUSIVE JUSTICE IRAN STYLE: SICK GIRL EXECUTED BY JUDGE SHE DEFIED
Her crime? She had sex with an unmarried man
By Susie Boniface
IT WAS exactly 6am and the start of another blisteringly hot summer
day when 16-year-old Atefeh Rajabi was dragged from her prison cell
and taken to be executed.
Every step of the way the troubled teenager plagued by mental problems
shouted "repentance, repentance" as the militiamen marched her to the
town's Railway Square.
The Iranian judge who had sentenced Atefeh to death was left unmoved
as he personally put the noose around her neck and signalled to the
crane driver.

The unspeakable evil of religious fundamentalism once again
rears its hideous head.


Let's be precise here, John. *ISLAMIC* fundamentalism.


Why?


Because that what it is, Kate.


Is what? Something you don't want to talk about?


Apparantly it's something *YOU* don't want to talk about. You got a
problem with calling Islamic fundamentalism what it is, Kate?


You don't want to face that it's the fundamentalism that's the
problem, not the islamicism.

But it isn't the fundamentalism, Kate. I know a lot of Christian
fundamentalists and they're not violent. The ones who are, are violent
because they're disturbed individuals, not because they're encouraged by
their general religious community.
It is most definitely the Islamism. You don't see Christians out hanging
young women from cranes or beating little girls up because they
interrupted a Sunday School teacher at his prayers. Where is the
*Christian* movement that is conducting a suicide bombing campaign?

That's because fundamentalism is
authoritarian in basis, the same as you advocate. The muslims are not
the the problem. The muslims don't push terrorism. Authoritarians
do. Just like you do.

Sigh. Same old simplistic Kate as always. Same dumb generalizations that
avoid all the details that would ruin her nice simpleminded
equivalences.

It's not the islamism because there are plenty of islamics that don't
do that. Many live in this country. Islam is based on non violence -
remember? Bush said so himself? Remember Fred - your hero says
otherwise - or are you claiming he lied yet again?
And we have Christian movements just like that. Right now, there is a
movement to start world war III so they can enjoy their rapture.
Oops.

(snort)
And how will you handle this family of islamics? According to you,
you would bomb them. The entire family. Just as you bomb all the
other islamics you are supposedly 'helping'. And just how is that
any different than what they did?
Face it Fred. You are just them sitting fat and stupid in an american
easy chair. You want to kill and mame to force people to do what you
want. You like wars because they give you an excuse to do that.
It doesn't work for them to change behavior by doing that and it
doesn't work for us either.

kate, kate, kate, you fail to distinguish between Islamism and Islamics.
Why do you think the other regulars on alt.atheism are so stupid?

And we have Christian movements just like that. Right now, there is a
movement to start world war III so they can enjoy their rapture.

But they're not mainstream, and the Islamists are.

Oops.

Kate, you're still doing it, putting Islamics instead of Islamists. You
know that there is a difference, even if you think the rest of
alt.atheism is too stupid to notice. I mean, you should have more
respect for the other liberals around here, there aren't *all* as dumb
as you are.

Face it Fred. You are just them sitting fat and stupid in an american
easy chair. You want to kill and mame to force people to do what you
want. You like wars because they give you an excuse to do that.

I don't *want* to have to do that, but if I *have* to do it, I won't let
you stop me.

It doesn't work for them to change behavior by doing that and it
doesn't work for us either.

Oh, it'll work all right. Violence *does* settle things, just ask the
city fathers of Carthage. Oh, wait, you can't.

A time-tested solution indeed. That very approach is why
there have been no terrorist attacks in Israel for some
decades now.

Only those who have not served in the US military repeat that inane logic
concerning Bush's 'Mission Accomplished' statement. When an aircraft
carrier leaves the port, it is tasked with a mission, and it doesn't matter
if there is a war currently in progress. That ship was tasked with many
difficult operatios, and performed brilliantly, hence, 'Mission
Accomplished'.
Bush did not say the war was over, he was congradulating the crew on
a job well done. He IS the commander in chief, and it is within his duties.
Boneheads.

Well, Christianity is a religion of peace.

So we have to bomb the ***** out of some people...


Interesting place to put that ellipsis, right where the explanation for
why we have to bomb those people goes. Funny how liberal stop-think
works, isn't it?

We have to bomb the ***** out of some people *because they are harboring
terrorists*.


But happily, we don't have to bomb the ***** out of Syria, Lebanon, Saudi
Arabia, and Pakistan because ... um, why not again?

We certainly can't bomb Pakistan! I mean, they supplied nuclear materials
and information to N. Korea and Iran and bin Laden and what's left of Al
Qaeda are there.
Um... wait...

Actually, it's because they are harboring members of *another* religion

Terrorism is a strategy, a technique of warfare. It has no ideology.
Bush's GWOT is a nonsensical phrase, its only purpose is to obfuscate
the real identity of the enemy, because that identity exposes too many
uncomfortable comparisons to "his base".

No, it's because they are harboring terrorists. If they weren't

Yes, your favorite weapon in the war on terror apparently are
neofascist talking points blended with juvenile insults, better known
as IIDs (improvised insult devices).

Ah, and here's the king of the juvenile insults to show us how it's
done.
But thanks for the targeting information. :-)

No, Scott, it takes a certain sort of ideology to use terrorism as a
tactic in warfare. The sort of ideology that doesn't distinguish
between civilians and military personell as targets.


That's not an ideology either. Perhaps you should look up the meaning
of the word.


Maybe you recognize yourself as the target of the phrase "a certain sort
of ideology".

You know, like you liberals cretins with your moral equivalences.


Boom! Another IID!

Ah, thanks for letting me know that I hit the target again. :-)


Ah, but there is a distinction there that you're desperately glossing
over. That laser-guided bomb is probably aimed at a legitimate
military target like a house full of terrorists.


Doesn't the name "laser-guided bomb" just fill you with pride, because
such high tech weapons must be so precise they would never hurt anyone
but the bad guys.

Still, dead is dead to an eight year old girl.

Yes, Scott, innocent people get hurt when terrorists hide behind them
and use them as human shields. Are we therefore to let the terrorists
have their way?


If there are civilians around, it's the fault of the terrorists for
"blending in".


Ah, so it's the terrorist's fault for wanting to stay alive. What a
devious bunch! Let's just blow the ***** out of them anyways, who cares
how many innocent civilians get killed. After all, it's not like
they're Republican voters...

Scott, it's time to take away the terrorist's best weapon: your bleeding
heart.


Your hero the suicide bomber might [...]


Kaboom! Another one! IID's goin' off every time you turn around!

And another direct hit!
Scott, you're doing better than an al-Jazeera reporter in Israel. :-)

You'll need to ask Washington for a quick resupply if you're going to
keep this campaign going.

Scotty, you're such a target-rich environment, and I've got all this
precision-guided ammunition, remember?
But you're going to run out of UN observer stations for firebases and UN
ambulances to carry your terrorists away from ambush sites.

If they blend in they are not terrorizing the populance, which probably

At least that's what the Army of the United States teaches.

You dodged *my* point about terrorist ideologies being the ones that
make no distiction at all between military and civilians. Our military
go to great lengths to avoid civilian casualties. Our enemy in Iraq go
out of their way to *cause* civilian casualties.
You may now proceed to twist logic to the breaking point to make it out
that our targeting of military installations that were deliberately
placed in a city by the enemy is the same as that same enemy running a
suicide bomber into a crowd.

So, again: when the US dropped unguided cluster bombs throughout
Baghdad, how was that different from what you say is an 'ideology of
terrorism' in not discriminating between civilians and military
personel?

Our targeting is a lot more precise than you imply.

Please don't give me 'Baghdad was a military target' again - the
entire city was not one big encampment.

They didn't drop bombs all over the city. They were targeted on military
buildings. It's not our fault that Saddam put his bunkers and other
installations in and around residential areas. That's what you get when
you put terrorists in charge.

You may now proceed to twist logic to the breaking point to make it out
that our targeting of military installations that were deliberately
placed in a city by the enemy is the same as that same enemy running a
suicide bomber into a crowd.

Dropping cluster munitions isn't 'targeting' anything, and your ad-hom
attacks aren't doing anything to make your point valid. In fact, just
the opposite.


So, again: when the US dropped unguided cluster bombs throughout
Baghdad, how was that different from what you say is an 'ideology of
terrorism' in not discriminating between civilians and military
personel?


Our targeting is a lot more precise than you imply.

One cluster bomb scatters anti-personnel submunitions over an area
larger than a football field. That's exactly what they're designed to
do. Cluster bombs were dropped into urban areas where civilians live.
That doesn't look like precise to me. In fact, it looks like sowing
booby-traps among civilians.
So, yes, blowing up civilians is repugnant. I'm wondering when it
became less repugnant in your opinion when the US does it.


Please don't give me 'Baghdad was a military target' again - the
entire city was not one big encampment.


They didn't drop bombs all over the city. They were targeted on military
buildings. It's not our fault that Saddam put his bunkers and other
installations in and around residential areas. That's what you get when
you put terrorists in charge.

Cluster bombs ARE NOT TARGETED MUNITIONS. They are designed to kill
and maim indiscriminately over a large area. Isn't that the same
'terrorist' ideology you condemn?

Sorry, but using the word "indiscriminate" to describe an area-denial
weapon doesn't make it so. Neither do the CAPITAL LETTERS.

No, it is not. I'm sorry if your terrorist friends don't like it, but
the US isn't supporting terrorist ideology.

Area denial weapon? Doublespeak at it's best.
It's not hard to believe that the man who gloats at the death of innocents
would accept this view.
However I would like to see some information that shows exactly how it's use
denies entry into an area rather than kill anybody in it.
He probably feels the same about napalm.

Not in a city, it isn't. It is an indiscriminate anti-personnel

insults, this is a good place for it.

you're applying exactly that to the actions of the US military.

Sorry, but using the word "indiscriminate" to describe an area-denial

And yet the fact remains. Your definition of 'targeting' applies to
the IEDs being used by insurgents. Did you mean to do that?


Isn't that the same 'terrorist' ideology you condemn?


No, it is not. I'm sorry if your terrorist friends don't like it, but
the US isn't supporting terrorist ideology.

Okay. Explain how the use of an indiscriminate anti-personnel weapon
with a footprint larger than a football field on an urban area with a
known civilian presence is okay when the US does it, but the use of
indiscriminate weapons by the enemy is not.
Or is the answer simply that it's okay *because it's the US doing it?
