"Christians killing Muslims in Iraq"?
First of all, its hard to believe nowadays.
Are they talking about the American soldiers? How can ALL of them be Christian?
Why do some people say this?
Those soldiers are Not killing because Christianity teaches or requires it. They are Not killing in the name of Jesus like Militant Muslims are, killing under the name of Allah.
If Christians WERE killing Muslims in Iraq in the name of Jesus, then this statement would be correct. But they are Not.
Isn't it suppost to be "Americans are killing Muslims in Iraq"?

And how come you are so concerned about the generalization NOW, when it's Christians who are attacked?
Not all Iraqis are Muslims either... So it should be "Americans are killing Iraqis in Iraq" - and then you would complain because it's not ALL Americans who are killing Iraqis... or that not everyone killing Iraqis in Iraq are American...
Also, you have to take into consideration whether Muslim terrorists killing people are doing it IN the name of Allah, or are they praying to Allah and asking for strength etc. to carry on with their mission? Exactly what the Christian USA is doing for the whole army in Iraq. Also, the army priests are praying with the troops and blessing them in for every attack. I'm 100% sure there are American Christian soldiers in Iraq doing what they are doing in the name of Jesus.
Allah and Islam does NOT teach or require anyone to kill people. On the contrary, Islam tells Muslims to live exemplary and through that example convert non-believers. That's the TRUE meaning of Jihad.
There are Christians killing Muslims in Iraq.

While the military forces who are in Iraq are not actually killing due to their religious beliefs, the war was started largely because of the religious beliefs of President Bush. While there are other factors involved - the access to oil, the desire to depose Saddam Hussein, the desire to promote democracy in the Middle East, these are all tied into the current administration's ideas about what is right from a fundamentalist Christian perspective. There is no separation of church and state in the current administration.

LOL so now Christian= American???
Didn't the "Good Christian" GW Bush say that Jesus told him to invade Iraq? I think that would imply that his terroristic rule and mass killings are being done in the name of Jesus so the statement would be correct.
separation of church and state??? You are joking right?

American soldiers are not in there to kill All but only the terrorists If they were to kill all people in Iraq they should have used a Nuclear Bomb to save time. In fact the Americans are helping them . just look at Afghanistan they removed the Taliban and in Iraq they Removed Saddam Hussein

American soldiers are there because of all this Muslim Radicals going on killing sprees, from before 911.
ALLAH has lost control of the Islam faith, so somebody has to do something.

Oh please. It's Christians who put that maniac in power. He used his power (ie media) to brainwash the public and especially soldiers to go illegally invade a sovereign state on the other side of the world. Ask the soldiers why they are there, do you think they know why? No they're brainwashed.

They're probably talking about Blackwater, a well-known Christian para-military organization. I'm surprised you haven't heard of them, you usually seem so well-informed.

Yeah, Ive seen this too. Its grasping really, I mean it has to be. Just as comparing 24 murders and attempted murders of abortion doctors in 25 years makes modern day Christianity as radical and violent as modern day Islam.
They can massage it, play with it and wish it to be, but the truth is the truth.
