Guess I pushed your button!

Harrak, I seem to have hit a nerve in you. What else can account for the over-the-top response from you? You wrote:

"You seem like a Terrorism Apologist"

Wrong. I condemn all terrorists. I believe they should all be killed in cold blood, on sight. Apparently your reading comprehension needs a bit of work though, because I never said the FLQ was not a terrorist group or that they were in any way good. All I did was point out your horrendous error in calling them "Christian" terrorists.

"I still maintain my comparison between FLQ and Alqaeda"

And I never disputed that. Both are reprehensible terrorist groups. The difference is that Al Qaeda is an Islamic (religious) terror group, and the FLQ is a Marxist/Socialist (political) terror group.

Harrak, I already explained the problem in my previous post, and you conveniently overlooked that part. I wonder why? Perhaps because you have no answer for it? I'll repeat myself and give you yet another change to address the issue, if you dare.

Islamic terrorist groups are all religious in nature. They commit terror in the name of Islam, for the sake of Islam, to promote Islam, as a condition of being Islamic (the Koran calls for jihad). And yet you will never, I mean never, hear a Muslim referring to these groups as terrorist groups. To them, Hamas, Hizbollah, PLO, these are all "freedom fighters" even when they are free people living in a free country and blowing up airplanes belonging to a neutral country (say, Switzerland). Why is that?

And why is it that any terror group that is not Islamic in nature is dubbed "Christian" by Muslims whether it is Christian or not? FLQ is not committing terror because their religion calls for it, they are not committing terror in order to advance the cause of Christianity, they are not committing terror in the name of Christianity. They are committing terror in order to force a political outcome...to separate Quebec from Canada and form a socialist/Marxist state.

FLQ is political in nature, not religious. Hence, you cannot truthfully call them a "Christian" terrorist group.

Are you man enough to face those facts and back up your claim that they are Christian terrorists? Are you man enough to understand the difference between Islamic terror groups and other terror groups? Or are you going to continue to hide behind the pro-Islamic propaganda of calling all other terror groups "Christian" when religion plays little to no role in their ideology?

"as for naming children after Terrorists, I think that if the Terrorists were first named that name, you could be right. If the name has historical significance, than obviously Muslims do not have the complex of culture like some HUS who become Michaels..The fact that a terrorist has a name, means in no way that that name is reserved for him. This point is too weak to stand and needs calcium..especially from you Noah Milk."

Changing my last name to "Milk" it a typical Islamic "debating" tactic. How infantile.

You apparently refuse to admit that after 9/11, Muslims around the world started naming their children "Osama" in honor of Osama bin Laden, because they adored that terrorist. Likewise, there was a boom in children named "Saddam" amongst Muslims when we went to war with Iraq. Muslims also tend to name their children in honor of terror leaders that Israel takes out. I've seen this more than a few times. Why would any sane person want to name his child after a mass murderer?

"Noah, next time repair your leaking boat before sailing the ocean where the Titanic sunk."

There is no need for repair. My argument is rock solid. If you believe it isn't, prove me wrong. Show me where the FLQ is committing terror to advance a Christian agenda. Unless you can do that, they are not a Christian terrorist group, and your post is nothing but typical Islamic propaganda.
