Hmmm ... 2nd picture in the series ... if you look at the mosque and at the building next to it, their shadows aren't even remotely parallel (even with that honkin' big pile of rubble throwing off the projection angle).

That would imply that either the sun was very, very, very close that day, or that the photo(s) have been altered.

Nice try, though.

Confirmation bias (http://www.skepdic.com/confirmbias.html).

How is it that Allah caused all those homes to be destroyed? because of the sins of a few the many should suffer? How is that compassionate or merciful?

No, that is edited, sorry. Look at the tower - it stands too far out from the building behind. Also, just for the record, I edit photos quite regularly, so yes, it is edited.

God, you're an idiot. The Turkish government became quite a bit more fundamentalist last year due to parliamentary elections. The Muslim nutjobs won several seats, which is why the 4th Infantry Division was suddenly forbidden entry to the country.

This and the fact that the first and third pictures are just mirror images of each other (reversed left-to-right).

Now why would anybody want to do that, do you think ... ?

I hope Allah has the power to protect you from nuclear fusion.

Were the 1970's the same thing as 2003? No? Oh, then I guess you're a dumbass. Times change. Welcome to reality.

This? I'm just contradicting you.

Debate requires two positions and two people willing to discuss them. So I choose not to debate you -- I'll just refute your false claims as best I can and not actually participate in a back-and-forth discussion.

Notice how the Israelis have to come into it somewhere within the first paragraph...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks those pictures are really fake looking. Very odd indeed.

Even if the pictures are real, I'm not terribly suprised that a mosque was left standing... I'm sure there are plenty that weren't.

As Magneto wonderfully pointed out, confirmation bias takes care of that discrepency for the mind of a deluded individual.

LOOK AT ME, I'M SPREADING DUMBSHIT POLITICAL AND RELIGIOUS IDIOCY!!! (http://photoarts.com/haviv/bosnia/dying.html)

Um... what? Who said that?

Prince just beacuse you have so much love for your religion doesn't mean shit. i don't think anyone really cares about islam, a stupid religion which promises its followers eternal paradise if they go around killing people. so do us a favour and stop trying to get people to follow your religion. and what i mean is that stop posting bullshit threads about allah doing so and so...fuckin hell man.

Please don't ban him, diversity is good.

I can see that

yeah, so i don't see how you can expect him to spell perfectly. or call him a retard because he can't

Prince, your a fucking idiot, but all praises to allah, he works in mysterious ways.

quote:Originally posted by inquisitor_11:

If I did decide to ban him it wouldn't be because of his religious beliefs; it would be because he is a threat to the board. His posts are frequently what are considered "hate" threads or "terror" threads by the US government, and could result in governmental action against &Totse.com.

Not that any government action (I think) would be permanent, but it could cause a major upheaval.

That aside, his arguments are uneducated, unfounded, and one sided.

And he annoys me. But, if I just banned people who annoyed me, he and many others would've been gone a long time ago.

princecharmant can say whatever he wants about me, religion, or any pending dooms. All that matters to me is keeping the board a safe place to voice opinions.

Whatever those may be.

uhh

isn't the building right next to the mosque still standing?

so the patron saint of apartment buildings must've been making a statement also
