Some time in the future we´ll somewhere buried in the small print how much the Obama administration paid to get him released.

It sounds bizarre to me too, but for some reason the USers think that little chickens are racist. Obama beef or Obama fish would surely be OK. Obama pork probably not, the local religion of peace would object. Don´t try to look for logic in this stuff...

And what in the world does have sending soldiers to die for nothing (or even worse, to die for propping up a Shariah government) to do with "justice for 9/11"??? An insane suggestion!

"who said he 'ended' a war in Afghanistan? "
Nobody! And he didn´t! He is sending MORE troops on a pointless mission impossible to Afghanistan.
So what happened to all those glorious promises of "change"?
Ridiculous.

Oh yeah? Then maybe you can tell us what exactly the additional troops are supposed to do in Afghanistan.
Fact is, Obama has not ended any war in Afghanistan, he is increasing the idiotic exercise to higher levels than ever.
As for Iraq, his withdrawal plan is basically exactly the same as GWBs, so it is ridiculous to crow about any difference there.
Of course, the HUGE difference is that this time around the media don´t hate the Potus any more, they adore him.

I don´t know what the Brouhaha is about. They agreed to Shariah in the Svat valley, now they got Shariah in the Svat valley.
What did they think? That Shariah does not mean Shariah? Of course not. This fake outrage is just a PR exercise for the Western politicians.

If Bush "brought this on", then now would be the chance for your hero to reverse course. Instead what is he doing? Sending ever more soldiers on a wild goose chase to Afghanistan. (And civilians too, which will make wonderful hostages for the Taliban.)
That is your change you can believe in???

Actually, I find it quite hilarious that the conspiracy nuts believe that a jumbo jet flying into a ferroconcrete building would leave a neat hole in the silhouette of a plane. Just like in a Bugs Bunny cartoon or some such, LOL! It says something about our education system doesn´t it.

Its content, for crying out loud! If you accept that the perfect man was a mediaval Arab warlord, and the gods will are the medieaval Arab laws laid down by said warlord, how do you expect it to be modern?
It is not like that is a new insight. Only modern political correctness and cultural relativism made us forget it.

Tell that to the islamic clerics in Afghanistan or anywhere else who interpret the Koran sura this way. Fact is, marital rape is not recognized as rape anywhere where Shariah is applied. If you know of an islamic scholar who actually says that marital rape exists, do tell us.
Here is an article about the topic, which you might want to read: http://www.americanthinker.com/2005/09/plowingfieldsandmarryingli.html
And yes, I think Shariah is terrible. You don´t?

Superlib: What day and age? For the followers of Shariah, it is the year 1433. And since gods law must not be changed, it will forever reflect medieval Arab society.

The article says there were THREE friends. To claim that three of them could not restrain this one guy is insane. Or was he superman?

Simply that this sura implies god wants the male to plow his wifes as much he wants, and they have no right to object. This is the way it routinely interpreted in Shariah countries; if you interpret it differently that is up to you, but totally irrelevant.

I disagree. Bush sat by and allowed Afghanistan to write the Sharia into its constituion. So, tada... Afghanistan gets Shariah. Bush is just as ignorant about the topic as the multiculti crowd.

Anyone who thinks this is "monumental news" has been in deep sleep and/or denial about Shariah, and the fact that Shariah is written into Afghanistans constitution.

That is simply Shariah law. It is the same everywhere where Shariah applies... from Aceh to Saudi Arabia to muslim communities in the UK.
Anyone who pretends to be shocked by this hasn´t done his homework. Read the Koran sura 2:223. That is what the rule is based on.
