In reply to the discussion: ISIS claims responsibility for Orlando Florida nightclub shooting: Amaq News Agency tied to group [View all]sulphurdunn
(6,891 posts)23. When secular, civil societies
unravel, religious fundamentalism always rises up to demand the blood of unbelievers and other sinners . The Quran, like the Bible, requires homosexuals be put to death. The difference is that ISIS has replaced secular government with a murderous, inquisitorial theocracy that considers its holy book a governing document. They terrorize and murder to retain control.

On our soil now. Which makes us not an NDAA legal "battleground," but a real battleground.

They're delighted to claim it. They hope recruitment begins within the Great Satan.
