Islam for Muslims / Re: The Narration That Allah's Apostle Never Beat Anyone Is False by soohib(m): 12:51pm On Feb 13, 2020 |
najib632:. Aameen Wa antum Fajazaakumullohu khoiran. He may embrace Islam who knows, but I advice Advocatejare to stop using derogatory remarks if possible, try to reason deeply and read from the particular sources(i.e. Real Quran and Authentic Hadith) you do quote from extensively, rather than just quoting some selected and misquoted verses and Hadith. |

najib632:. Surah An-Nahl, Verse 44 With clear signs and Books (We sent the Messengers). And We have also sent down unto you (O Muhammad SAW) the reminder and the advice (the Quran), that you may explain clearly to men what is sent down to them, and that they may give thought. The above verses is what warrant tafseer (i.e. sayings and explanations of the Prophet SAW ) of Quran May the Almighty God guide us to the right path. 1 Like |

Phones / Former US Drone Operator Says US Military Is ‘worse Than The Nazis’ by soohib(m): 11:00pm On Feb 09, 2020 |
Former US drone operator recalls dropping a missile on Afghanistan children and says military is ‘worse than the Nazis’ A former US drone operator is speaking out against the atrocities he says he was forced to inflict during his time in the armed forces and says the American military as ‘worse than the Nazis’. Brandon Bryant was enlisted in the US Air Force for six years. During his time with the military, he operated Predator drones , remotely firing missiles at targets more than 7,000 miles away from the small room containing his workspace near Las Vegas, Nevada. Mr Bryant says he reached his breaking point with the US military after killing a child in Afghanistan that his superiors told him was “a dog.” Mr Bryant recalls the moment: After firing a Hellfire missile at a building containing his target, he saw a child exit the building just as the missile struck. When he alerted his superiors about the situation after reviewing the tape, he was told “it was a f***ing dog, drop it.” Following that incident, Mr Bryant quit the military and began speaking out against the drone program.

He says he has been left suffering from post- traumatic stress disorder. Mr Bryant said he saw the man he targeted bleed out from his legs and watched as his body went cold on his thermal imaging screen. “The smoke clears, and there’s pieces of the two guys around the crater. And there’s this guy over here, and he’s missing his right leg above his knee. He’s holding it, and he’s rolling around, and the blood is squirting out of his leg … It took him a long time to die. I just watched him,” Mr Bryant said in an interview with GQ. “That image on the screen is still in my head. Whenever I think about it, it still hurts me,” Mr Bryant said. “When I pulled the trigger, I knew that it was wrong. When the middle struck I knew in my soul I had become a murderer.” Other airmen in Mr Bryant’s squadron celebrated his first kill, saying “Brant’s popped his cherry.” Mr Bryant was enlisted from 2006 to 2011, working as a sensor operator, which helps direct missiles to their targets. In a conversation with the Roots Action Network, Mr Bryant recalled an instance early in his enlistment where he and his fellow drone operators were shown a video montage of drone strikes, after which they were told their jobs were to “kill people and break things.” “It went against everything that I had ever learned about honor and justice and training. It was terrifying how dismissive people were about the whole affair. We were safe in the U.S. and those over there were not. We win. But that’s not how it goes,” Mr Bryant said. Mr Bryant said that despite his misgivings about the program, his superiors used punitive measures and mockery to keep him in line. “It broke my spirit. It went against everything I learned about being a warrior, about holding yourself to higher standards. My superiors psychologically beat me and ridiculed me to keep me in line. They took away my free time and forced me to sit in a seat or be tried under the UCMJ (Uniform Code of Military Justice) for disobeying orders,” Mr Bryant said. “In a sense, it was my prison. I served my time to learn and reflect. And so I hold the key now, to the entire apparatus. I just don’t know what to do with it.” He has said the US military is “worse than the Nazis” because “we should know better.” Mr Bryant said he and his family have been threatened for speaking out against the drone program and that he has lost friends and been estranged from other members of his family over his whistle- blowing. Ultimately Mr Bryant wants the public to understand the dehumanizing effect of the drone program on the operators and the individuals targeted. “I would want people to know, beyond its existence, the consequences it has on us as a species to delineate our power into something so easily destructive. Every time we get closer to that edge, we’re going to have to realise where it places us,” Mr Bryant said. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-military-drone-nazis-brandon-bryant-a9324011.html lalasticlala, mynd44 2 Likes

Islam for Muslims / Re: Where 2 Oceans Meet But Do Not Mix, Confirmed By The Quran Over 1400 Years Back by soohib(m): 10:28am On Mar 08, 2019 |
Abrahamdgreat:. The fact that it is mentioned in the Qur'an is a confirmation that it exist before the Qur'an was revealed and it is not to prove otherwise. But the point here is to direct those who are too Idle to seek the truth to also know that if Qur'an is not a true message from our Maker, Creator the Almighty, such MIRACULOUS INFORMATION couldn't have being revealed with such level of accurate description. So, Islam is the right way to follow if you want to enter paradise, because Islam is the total way of life. Peace be upon those that follow the right guidance. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Family / Re: I Had A Child With My Brother's Ex Wife. Please Read And Advice Me by soohib(m): 11:32am On Feb 28, 2019 |
Vincent88:. TAKE THIS ADVICE WHOLE HEARTEDLY I'm sorry for your predicament, but going to inform anyone without proper examination of the child is not the best way to handle this issue. My advise are as follows 1. Do a DNA test first. 2. If she is not yours, free your mind and seek God's forgiveness. 3. If you turn out to be the father after the DNA test, do as follows: (i.) Inform your middle brother of what actually transpired. So, from there you could know what to do next (ii.) Let your wife not be the first person you informed but your immediate elder brother. THAT'S MY 2 cent though. As for your wife's miscarriage, I can help you on that by the grace of GOD if you need help from me. And if we are still alive your story would change. |

Lexusgs430 remember this market ó......... Fond memories..... Too risky though..... It's a fire hazard...... Was it tested properly or just put to market? . No risk involved, if you use it prudently. This has been in existence for the past few years. |
