Maybe they will stop killing us with those big bombs so we can enslave the population, rob, steal, behead and have our sex slaves in peace.My bet is it's more like if I do this maybe they will stop killing us with those big bombs.

@joeyd999Say anything you want -- it won't matter. I have reason to distrust Islam -- and its adherents. Reality is.
The linked meaning "Quran (3:54) "Quran (3:54) - "And they (the disbelievers) schemed, and Allah schemed (against them): and Allah is the best of schemers." The Arabic word used here for scheme (or plot) is makara, which literally means 'deceit'. If Allah is supremely deceitful toward unbelievers, then there is little basis for denying that Muslims are allowed to do the same. (See also 8:30 and 10:21)
What I have. And it's the same meaning54. And they (disbelievers) plotted [to kill 'Iesa (Jesus)], and Allah planned too. And Allah is the Best of the planners.
Extra is added in the link (not in the meaning).54. And they (i.e the disbelievers) planned, but Allah planned. And Allah is the Best of the planners.
it is clear here than Arabic word "makara" means plot here and not deceit.noun: plot; plural noun: plots
....a plan made in secret by a group of people to do something illegal or harmful.
noun: deceit; plural noun: deceits
.....the action or practice of deceiving someone by concealing or misrepresenting the truth.
You must like the Saudi'sMaybe they will stop killing us with those big bombs so we can enslave the population, rob, steal, behead and have our sex slaves in peace.
Somebody made us the morality police?Maybe they will stop killing us with those big bombs so we can enslave the population, rob, steal, behead and have our sex slaves in peace.
I think they're thinking more in terms of personal revenge against a society they feel has been unfair to them.My bet is it's more like if I do this maybe they will stop killing us with those big bombs
We didn't care much about the JV team until they started chopping American heads. I wasn't for the Syria or Libya or the GWII interventions. Assad, Gaddafi and Hussein are/were not our problems.Somebody made us the morality police?
I think you forgot what war spawned ISIS.
Sure, for example in Syria that started out as Assaud quelling the unrest (with bombs), then joined with the oppressed Sunnis in Iraq and the boys in Libia that we saved from Qaddafi. My point is not that I like it. The point is, it is the best way they can find to fight a superior opponent, not because they just want to be killers. And to be honest, it's working for them to some extent.I think they're thinking more in terms of personal revenge against a society they feel has been unfair to them.
Unfortunately, the rules of engagement of arab countries are completely different from those of the west. But I see your point, stealth and trickery are the only strategies they have left against a much more powerful enemy. But they seem to have made enemies everywhere.Sure, for example in Syria that started out as Assaud quelling the unrest (with bombs), then joined with the oppressed Sunnis in Iraq and the boys in Libia that we saved from Qaddafi.

Well, maybe it will all be over in another 10 or 15 years and a few trillion more.We didn't care much about the JV team until they started chopping American heads. I wasn't for the Syria or Libya or the GWII interventions. Assad, Gaddafi and Hussein are/were not our problems.
Nor from the Brits in Afghanistan either... there's a big difference between battling a government, and battling a population.Well, maybe it will all be over in another 10 or 15 years and a few trillion more.
Pisses me off we didn't learn anything from the Russians in Afghanistan.![]()
The rules of engagement don't apply to terrorist.Unfortunately, the rules of engagement of arab countries are completely different from those of the west. But I see your point, stealth and trickery are the only strategies they have left against a much more powerful enemy. But they seem to have made enemies everywhere.
and that's the main difference in strategy ... military battles are historically respected and even admired on both sides of a conflict, but going after civilians only fans the flames of hatred, and things become a never-ending spiral of death...they are aimed at military targets.
How about this one?The rules of engagement don't apply to terrorist.
This is not a terrorist attack but they are suicide attacks within the rules of war because they are aimed at military targets.
I should add. I would have dropped them to. The point is we ain't as clean as you would like us to believe.Nagasaki had no military units and, of the total 140,000 deaths there, only about 150 were military. In total, over 95 per cent of the combined casualties of the two cities were civilian.
Welcome to joeys world.If this is what you believe is true, I really dunno what to say
And that goes back to the founding of America. They displaced the Indians to somewhere that was 'unusable' to white men, then they found gold and other "usable" minerals and then took that land too.I should add. I would have dropped them to. The point is we ain't as clean as you would like us to believe
It was very clear, they started the war and we finished it by destroying their manufacturing capacity. Very clean and simple. Kokura was the initial target but Nagasaki was a major shipbuilding city and a large military port that had been bombed before. I've taken the train past Nagasaki before to Sasebo. It was and still is a giant industrial area.How about this one?

That goes back to the story of all mankind... there's no civilization nowadays that could boast having clean hands...And that goes back to the founding of America.

Inter-tribal warfare on the Plains of American was going on long before any Mayflower landed.That goes back to the story of all mankind... there's no civilization nowadays that could boast having clean hands...
There was even a horrible conflict between the northern american natives and the Inuits!Inter-tribal warfare on the Plains of American was going on long before any Mayflower landed.
