re: #909 Sharmuta

His culture is American! He was born and raised here, and we hardly have a culture that supports glorifying mass murderers.

And I have to say I don’t think you can call all islamic violence “jihad”. Would muslim bank robbers be on jihad, or would they just be criminals who were muslims? Did Hasan shave all his body hair? And how do you know this was well planned? Do you really think he was trying to spread islam, or was he trying to get out of going to Afghanistan?

He self-identified as Palestinian at his mosque, according to his Imam. I’ll take Hasan’s word for it—he viewed his culture as “Palestine.”
