    Not coming from the US I actually knew Islam before 2001 and I had never had a problem with it - apart from the problems I have with religion in general. Actually I find how the US government has beeng trying to turn Islam into the new boogeyman quite the offence to my intelligence. Also, at least in this case I agree with islam4UK. Thousands of innocent people have died just so the military industry could make a profit. Now, I dont care that much what religion they were but Im assuming that 99.9% of them were muslims. You know, normal people watcing TV at home, relaxing after a long days work, who just happen to believe in Allah... till a US bomb hit their house. Not terrorists, normal working people who unlike soldiers or terrorists dint sign up for it. Of course I also believe that your rip what you sow. For every child, man or woman coalition bombs kill there will be fathers, children and husbands ready to blow themselves up looking for revenge.

    If his father and grandfather are known mobsters, how come they still in activity? Police's hands too small for such big fish?

    Read again. The father is in prison and there`s no mention of whether the grandfather still has anything to do with the family business or problems with the law.

    We should all thank these hard men who risk their lives to fight the wackos who would torture and kill us without hesitation or remorse.

    Unless you are an iraqi and those "hard men" are the whackos trying to torture and kill you!

    Most insurgents in Afghanistan belong some type of warlord or the Taliban. So obviously they will naturally be the locals, however though public support for them is very low. Iraq was no different, foreigners only numbered at most a few thousand. As a result the vast majority of the Iraqi insurgency was made up of locals. Most of the insurgents, Taliban, do cause genuine disruption to the daily life of the afghanis.

    You mention warlords. My biggest problem with the Afghan sittation is that where the Taliban can be considered warlords the "government" is made up of warlords just the same. This is a full scale civil war and the US is right in the middle of it. Karzai has no legittimacy whatsoever and is only in power because he happens to be backed by the west. His is a puppet government at most and will be overthrown the moment western forces leave Afghanistan, if theyll ever leave. But lets not fool ourselves thinking we "liberated" the country.

    Anyone who believes the Afghan insurgents are just going to hide do not have a clue -- sad to say.

    You could always enlighten us.

    and highlighted the inability of Somalia’s weak government to protect even the small section of the capital it controls.

    How did this become "the government"? Sure there must be more powerful factions in the country that could lay claim to that title?

    If anything this shows the catholic churchs celibacy rules are atotal failure and priests are not as holy as theyd like us to think.

    Jiu Jitsu. Perfect for one on one. I don't think MMA is a martial art. Given MMA stands for mixed martial arts. It is a sport.

    Well there are MMA clubs where youll learn every facet of the sport. Yes, it is a sport, and so boxing is a sport, while whin-chung is a martial art. But I know Id rather trade punches with a whin-chung practitioner rather than a pro-boxer any time. You may think that the boxer is "limited" but hes only really limited by reality. Hes trained to do what works rather than some tradition based martial art where an instructor can dream up new moves in his sleep. Also, in boxing you may say there are rules but trust me, just because low blows are not allowed in the ring it doesnt mean a boxer cant effectively throw one on the street.

    I totally disagree with you "paolo27th". Have you even studied a martial art or had any experiences to back up your ridiculous statement "training martial arts for self defence is pretty silly". I'm not an active martial artist now, but I studied Tae Kwon Do for 5 years and Shorinji Kempo for 3 years. It's not all about fighting, it's also about a state of mind and to have self confidence. You can also protect others who are not able to defend themselves.

    Well, for once your motivation for keeping up with a self-defence program is basically fear, fear of being attacked in the street, and if you live with that constantly in your head then you state of mind is questionable. Number 2 self conficdence in most cases is a false sense of confidence. Some martial arts are so useless they may cause more trouble than anything. Thats because now youre going to fight, and get smashed, while before youd have walked away and saved your behind. Even then - becase I do have experience with martial arts (being a pro mma fighter) - I know that training 1.5hrs 2-3 times a week isnt going to turn anyone into Bruce Lee anyways. Number 3 youre unlikely to be attacked by a single unarmed assailant of similar weight. Youll more likely be attacked by a bunch of knife wielding gorillas so youd better just run. And yes, I know you want to protect those around you. The best way to do this is to grab some heave object from the floor and smash it on the attackers head from behind. No science and no need for expensive martial arts classes.
