Hang in there girl, awareness always comes with deep deep pain. Can you imagine becoming fully awake? Those boys in the OP picture are just beautiful, precious lives destroyed for nothing. The world is less bright each day.

Religious fanatics that think they are serving Allah, God, Satan, The Great Sky Spirit, or any other "divine being". A religious fanatic will always justify their murdering and slaughtering of thousands or millions for various reasons, whether it's to get 72 virgins, spread the word of God, achieve enlightenment, or serve their deity.

I'm not knocking religion, we all have a right to worship as we see fit. However history has taught us that some of the most savage and vicious atrocities known to man have been committed under the guise of religion. This is why I don't subscribe to any of the religions or cults.

By definition religion is a cult:

cult
noun, often attributive \ˈkəlt\

Definition of CULT
1: formal religious veneration : worship

2: a system of religious beliefs and ritual; also : its body of adherents

3: a religion regarded as unorthodox or spurious; also : its body of adherents

4: a system for the cure of disease based on dogma set forth by its promulgator

5:a : great devotion to a person, idea, object, movement, or work (as a film or book); especially : such devotion regarded as a literary or intellectual fad

b : the object of such devotion

My beliefs regarding the connections of my physical being to my spiritual being is my business for me to observe within my self and I will not allow my beliefs to be corrupted by the writings within a book or the words spoken by a mortal man who claims supreme enlightenment.

Just think how peaceful and divine the world would be without the various organized religions being at perpetual war with each other.

This thread content is enough to turn my stomach and it usually doesn't turn on most things.
I'm one of those that hate the Oh the poor kids though and kids making it supposed to matter so much more to me then any other life. After looking at those pictures I can't help but feel for those poor kids now.
They look so innocent and had so much ahead of them till this sick crap happened.

I'm to the point now since the Government here wants to support this type rebellion I'm thinking Bashar al Assad needs to arm us as we need to take this country back with or own rebellion.

Or just arm ourselves and get it over with. The US is arming and financing organizations that I was trained to and fought against as an active military service member and now, because of an organization I am a member of that promotes upholding our oaths and defending the Constitution I am considered a member of a domestic terror group and my name is on a watchlist.

Yeah America isn't going to he11 in a handbasket, we're already there. Our government has been infiltrated by individuals whom hate what we have stood for for 230+ years and is hellbent on bringing our nation down. The sad thing is that the majority of the population are so stupefied by the boob tube that they are ignorant of what our government is doing overseas and the stripping of our rights.

But hey, they have a new flat screen TV and internet so they are still free, right?

It sometimes makes me physically ill to know this is the nation I will leave to my children.

I'm disgusted that the Republicans are supporting these terrorists. John McCain was just over there recently, and you can just imagine the promises he would have made on behalf of the party.

The US should not be arming Syrian rebels. That is simply insane.

Well you can't be that disgusted with it, because you still live in the US. So you've obviously decided it's not so bad after all.

Yes I see the Oath keepers in your sig. The only trouble I have with it is the cost to be a member. But when I first read the pamphlet at the VA clinic I was excited to join except for the fee to stand up and hold my oath as I'm prior military as well.
So just keep me in mind I'll stand next to all of you just don't charge me to do it.

What a sad state of affairs. Peace prize winner giving aid to terrorists that we are at war with?

I'm no fan of Obama, but it's worth nothing that the only aid he's provided has been non-lethal (e.g. medical supplies, etc.)

The Republicans want to arm the terrorists, so they sent McCain over to get cosy and promise Republican support, but Obama has refused to provide military hardware.

Lol.....I still live in the US because this is MY country and I will not be a coward and run and hide, that's not what I'm made of. If that's what you are about then more power to you, but this is the nation that my forefathers fought and died for, this is the nation that I fought for, and this is the nation that I want my children to live in. My family has a long history in this nation, My great grandfather on my mothers side was Sheriff Pat Garrett, my great great grandfather on my fathers side was President James Monroe and I will honor them and all others who sacrificed for this nation.

If you think the attack on personal freedoms is an America only issue then please remove your head from the sand and clean the sand out of your eyes and ears so that you can clearly see and hear the world agenda that is elitist control of the masses.

No country, city, or castle has never been defended by cowards that run at the first sign of danger, those who run in the face of tyranny are already enslaved they just haven't realized it yet.

You may be happy with the way things are in Australia, having to pay thousands of dollars and wait for years sometimes to obtain a permit to own a gun, or the murdering of one of your nation's icons that brought your nation into the mainstream because he believed in his right to own a gun and think what he wanted. If you are then great I am glad you are happy and I wish you a long prosperous subservient life as a subject to your master that you call government.

Myself and hundreds of thousands of others are just sitting back and watching it all unravel and when the time comes and action is required then it will be done. Until then we live our lives and provide for our families, all the while slowly preparing for our survival and the survival of our nation.

I have the feeling that the current Syrian government can be compared to kittens when comparing them to the FSA. And that is probably the main cause the West is supporting the FSA. To deal as much damage and hopefully destabilize the current regime.

Has the media been covering the atrocities committed by the FSA against the christians? If no then why not?

What kind of media do we have that selects what truth should be allowed and what truth should be hidden?

Is it not the medias job to cover events and be as unbiased as possible?

If the media can be as biased as they want, then whos job is it to be unbiased?

edit on 9/6/13 by EarthCitizen07 because: (no reason given)

It seems to me that every important point made on ATS is soon diluted by stupid irrelevant posts that divert attention from the main issue, which in this case was about the US government sponsoring terrorists, and the deliberate destabilisation of the Middle East.

While it is horrifying that the West is backing the rebel extremists, i must ask if you could please remove the second picture of the children. I don't think that stuff should be shown on ATS, and i also believe that it may be treading on the t&c's a bit...

Thanks.

whatsa matter? dont like what your tax dollars are buying these days?
Neither do i, what say we stop funding psychopaths, at home and abroad.....? OK?

The Black Book of Communism has communist government death totals at:

•U.S.S.R.: 20 million deaths
•China: 65 million deaths
•Vietnam: 1 million deaths
•North Korea: 2 million deaths
•Cambodia: 2 million deaths
•Eastern Europe: 1 million deaths
•Latin America: 150,000 deaths
•Africa: 1.7 million deaths
•Afghanistan: 1.5 million deaths
This totals just over 94 million. These are the deaths committed by government agents against citizens of their own country.

skeptics.stackexchange.com...

find the same truthful chart for your claim of religion being so atrocious. Communist government, which is secular humanism and or atheistic socialism did this in less than 100 years.

why do you think that ambassador stevens was
killed in lybia for, because he was our agent there,
obama and hillary clinton's, to arm the lybians and syrians.

you live in australia and your
opinion while valid is not pertinent.

That's all good and well but it is comparing apples and oranges, and actually that total figure that you cited is quite low by most standards, it is actually closer to 150 million by most accounts including the United Nations Council on Human Rights.

However it is absolutely impossible for me to find any kind of charts that will give any kind of figures concerning those killed in the name of religion since that would go back thousands of years instead of 100 or so years. When you factor in the deaths from all religious clashes such as the First and Second Christian Crusades, Spanish Inquisition, Albigensian Crusade, The Islamic Crusades from 630AD-1090AD, the crusades of Peter The Hermit, the numbers if known would be staggering.

The fact is that for most of the history of religious clashes over the last 2,000 years no one kept a running count of the number of people killed and a lot of what was recorded has been lost or destroyed so it really is impossible to know. However I would be willing to say that if we were to go by what percentage of world population was killed by religious clashes throughout history verses what percentage of the world population has been killed in the name of communism the numbers would be very similar.

There is really no way to know, however mankind has been fighting over religious views and beliefs for much longer than we have been fighting over political views and beliefs. However I will say that both political and religious ideologies always lead to conflict and atrocities since they are both about control of the people. Maybe not for the same reasons or with the same motives but they both eventually end in violence and bloodshed.

Yes it's the Alliance from Hell, the Jews, the Protestant Sionists and the Sunni Muslims who are responsible for the situation in Syria, as long as their interests are protected and advanced they don't care how many die in Syria.

in the usa, democrats are typically of the catholic persuasion not protestant, although i know quite a few protestant democrats. protestants are typically repub or independents. although obama was from a christian church that was not catholic, i don't think black israel doctrine is a protestant platform. most protestants think jesus was a semite not an african.

if you have some examples of high ranking protestants involved, could you please provide them here, as i'm curious who would claim to be christian and still think this kind of thing was okay. i know there are a few dominionists like palin but she's not in office.

i think what you're comparing is apples and apples. both the holy roman empire and islam were/are political. so it's all the same banana as communism, fascism or imperialism. they provided or claim to provide, systems of government. so the rationale is the same one that drives all other forms of government -- they think their ideas about how to live in society and on the planet, are the best, and intend to prove it, regardless of how many humans they have to offer up to the alien meat eaters. (that last part was a bit of levity)
