Wholly Believable!

I believe him!...Why I'd even buy a used Edsel from him!

GARDEZ, Afghanistan — Afghan police officers working a highway checkpoint near here noticed something odd recently about a passenger in a red pickup truck. Though covered head to toe in a burqa, the traditional veil worn by Afghan women, she was unusually tall. When the police asked her questions, she refused to answer.

Afghan officials say Muhammad Kuzeubaev, 23, of Kazakhstan, is a bombmaker. He says he was visiting as a tourist.
When the veil was eventually removed, the police found not a woman at all, but Andre Vladimirovich Bataloff, a 27-year-old man from Siberia with a flowing red beard, pasty skin and piercing blue eyes. Inside the truck was 1,000 pounds of explosives.

Errr...He's Siberian not Serbian. Neither of these fellows look the part of the stereotypical "arab terrorist" frequently mentioned on this forum.

Out of curiousity I looked up the source of the Emulite explosives shown in the video. The Altay group is a Turkish-Swedish joint venture:ALTAY GROUP | Nitromak | www.altay.com.tr Seems to me the world as a whole needs better control over the dispersion of explosives.

yeah....it's probably how most terrorists move from place to place.. put a burka on them.

I think the term most used on this forum is "Muslim terrorist."

I guess I have trouble understanding why, if you want to study Islam, you would go to Waziristan! Surely there are other more ermmm travel freindly sites to visit where you can learn from a peaceful Imam!

Unless you want to learn the whole Smite thy neigbor..or is it smote? Smitted? Whatever!

Interesting indeed! I wonder, without the missions abroad, what the result would be. I guess it pays to be an early bird?

Smite is present tense, smote is past.

Therefore verily do I say unto you, go thou out now and smite until smitten

I wonder what it would be like without the wars..perhaps we would all be Hindis?.....and being the "early bird" didn't work too well for Hinduism really, right? Christianity and Islam were pretty late arrivals on the scene in the scope of things...
