It is my choice to support the resistance, from the articles that i have read.
No body sat me down for 6 months training and taught me "supporting the resistance 101". No i didn't join the armed forces to do that, unlike our friend here.
Like YOU have ideas about your so called British and American "freedom fighters" and democracy spreaders, WHOME YOU so radically support?
You sir, are very much. MISTAKEN.
LOL LOL LOL LOL !!!!!!!! when have i ever said it was ok to kill in the name of god?
NEVER. And i Dare you to try to find one quote where i said so.
I have always said, it is ok to kill those who have invaded and occupied your country.
It's called war.
It's not, Martin luther King was a Martyr, and he was killed for what he belived.
Malcom X was a martyr and he was shot outside his home.
Rachael Corrie was a martyr, and she was buldozed to death by IDF troops, while trying to stop the destruction of a palestinian home.
The Zulu's where martyrs, because they died trying to fight for their homeland.
I have never heard this from the resistance. What You are thinking about the CIA and MOSSAD run "al Qaeda", not my resistance . It's ok to kill the invaders and occupiers of your country whatever god you belive in, and even if you don't belive in one. And it's ok to do it however you can, ofcource while protecting the lives of the innocent.
But you know what's quiet hypocritical is that Martyrdom is in US culture as well.
Have you ever watched the movie ID4 (independance day) ?
Well i do belive at the end of that movie, and american pilot suicides bombs an alien ship.
Sure it sounds funny but still the culture is there. You are the one who has been conditioned to demonise the resistance.
What about the Kamikazies, who steered their aircraft into enemy ships?

Syrian Sister, I have an off-topic question:
I presume you are of middle-eastern origin and I would really like to know if you stay in the Middle-east..
Its for this informal survey I am conducting on ATS members, who are of non-western origin..
I am from India, reside in India....etc. etc..

You claim you don't kill civilians, but your history says otherwise. And this goes beyond my lai and iraq, depleted uranium and agent orange.
The rapes, the torture. Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Dresdan.
There is a history here a bloody history. And it starts with the death of 10 million native americans.

Reading the reports again lazarus, i found that the claim was actually rape of a child by a soldier "name withheld" and not by felow iraqies.
