ok, if muslim leaders really believe the lies they preach, you know - all the rewards they will receive in the afterlife for blowing themselves and as many innocent civilians up as possible.... if they truly believe they will be rewarded in the afterlife with all these great wonders, then why don't any of them run out and blow themselves up?

what is really sad is the fact that these leaders that program these kids from childhood all these lies, are the ones who are putting their bootheels into these misguided terrorists. even still, with all that programming, it seems unthinkable that none of these people think to ask, "if all these things truly awaits me after i blow up these people, why is it none of the osama bin ladens are eager to do this?"

wake up!! if what they told you was true, people like osama would be the first ones in line to go do it!!!! either your leaders are too cowardly to do it themselves, or they know the truth - either way, none of them are willing to make the sacrifice...... even with all those things promised them in the afterlife. i guess it's not their place to question (mighty convenient, because if anyone did, their lies would be exposed).
