Just before World War I, there were a number of terrorist attacks on the United States forces in the Philippines by Muslim extremists. So Gen. Pershing captured 50 terrorists and had them tied to posts for execution. He then had his men bring in two pigs and slaughter them in front of the now horrified terrorists. Muslims detest pork because they believe pigs are filthy animals. Some of them simply refuse to eat it, while others won't even touch pigs at all, nor any of their by-products. To them, eating or touching a pig, its meat, its blood, etc., is to be instantly barred from paradise (and those virgins) and doomed to hell. The soldiers then soaked their bullets in the pig blood, and proceeded to execute 49 of the terrorists by firing squad. The soldiers then dug a big hole, dumped in the terrorists' bodies and covered them in pig blood and entrails. They let the 50th man go. And for the next forty-two years, there was not a single Muslim extremist attack anywhere in the world. Maybe it is time for this segment of history to repeat itself? The question is, where do we find another Blackjack Pershing?

Where do we find another Pershing? From the sounds of it, there are plenty of Fundie Fuckknuckles on Rapture Retards that could fit the bill. Just go to the thread and look at the replies - only one complains that josh1313 is out of line, and it's a pretty half-hearted objection. None of the hijackers from 9/11 would have any objection to the violent imagery of this thread. What I said in an earlier comment rings true for this one - these Christian Fundies are the same as Muslim fundies - malignant narcissists, only concerned with themselves, and willing to destroy anyone who doesn't agree with their chosen lifestyle. A lifestyle of delusion, fantasy and death-worship. If there is a God, may he curse them and their children.
This is a pile of manure.
The Muslims in Mindanao fought the Spaniards, the Americans and the Japanese. The Philippine government has been fighting the Muslims since the end of WW2.
600+ years of Muslim insurgency. They've never surrendered nor have they ever been defeated.
You really believe that the death of 49 insurgents would stop a generational conflict?
You, josh1313, are a moron!
Speaking as a history student, I would just like to say:
YOU FAIL!
At least you're not in my class...though I might relish giving you a shitload of F's.
Just before World War I, there were a number of terrorist attacks on the United States forces in the Philippines by Muslim extremists.
These would be the 'Terrorists' fighting armed soldiers and the 'Muslim extremists' fighting an incredibly brutal and immoral invasion and colonisation of their country? Defending innocent civilians who would have been murdered, along with the prisoners the US continually shot out of hand, by US troops in their orgy of destruction they laughably call a 'war'? By the occupier's own terms?
Sound more like 'freedom fighters' to me...
There was no terrorism, there was a civil war to gain independence. And they were no muslims, they were majoritarily Catholics. You see, the story DOESN'T repeat itself.
Just read the whole thread. Those raptards are sick bastards, gullible too.
They all believe the shit about pig's blood and most seem to think it's a wondeful idea.
Just before the first world war, it was the aggressive, arrogant, jingoistic, xenophobic mindset of western countries that caused the damn war, which was the bloodiest and most pointless in history - and you're suggesting we model our current political and military policies on them?
After world war two the movement for independance from Britain began (or took on new life) under the leadership of Ghandi. A massarce took place of Indian civilians by British forces and this horrified Churchill and the British public.
Strange.
Wikipedia shows lots of massarces by British forces in the prceeding 200 years, what had changed?
Lookup something called the Zeitgeist and you might learn something, draconian measures are not the answer.
Josh,
Your posting is a clear revelation of the true underlying morality of a Rapture Ready Christian, a morality clearly in the same camp as the various genocidal followers of despotic leaders throughout history. You are no better, no more moral than the miriad Germans who felt justified in their "defensive' cruelties against the Jews and others. You are morally worse than an Muslim terrorist. I wish there were a hell.
Apart from all those attacks on Hindus by Muslim extremists during the partition of India and islamic terrorism to fight the Ottomans and the Islamic terrorism to overthrow the french and the dutch and the insurgency movements of africa... Yeah there were no Islamic terrorism for 50 years... Jackass...
Read your goddamn history
As for the event you are talking about. You are discussing the colonial massacre of Philipinos. The equivalent would be Germans saying "Well, back in 1942 we showed those uppity jews what for when they got too uppity!". Pershing by our standards should be treated in the same vein as General Dyer.
And note, thats like muslims destroying christian bodies. After all, your rapture can't happen if your body is destroyed.
You don't understand Muslim, pigs are unclean, but touching one does not damn you to hell.
This story seems to be bullshit
I like the people who consider carrying vials of pigs blood around their neck. Well I guess they don't have friends anyway...
Yeah, didn't happen. I have no idea were you got this shit from but it's just that, shit. Just before WWI, Pershing was in Mexico chasing Pancho Via or however you spell his name.

It's complete bullshit. Any one with a knowledge of history will tell you this. Black Jack wasn't in the Philippines right before WWI. He was in Mexico.
Yeah, there wasn't a single Muslim extremist attack anywhere in the world for the next 42 years.
Except in Palestine, and it probably would have been Muslim terrorists doing reprisal attacks against Jewish terrorists.
You didn't know there were Jewish terrorists, too? Maybe the Britons should have taken a chapter from Pershing's book, and bring in two pigs to slaughter before the Jewish terrorists . . .
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
