Sacrificing your children...

For Allah.

Can somebody explain to me, how a religion that so often tries to associate itself with the word... "peace" -- can countenance the increasing toll, not on enemy combatants... but on it's own children.

If it's true, as per Islamic precepts, that nothing happens that isn't the will of Allah... it seems to me that Allah is a particularly bloodthirsty and uncaring deity.
The blast killed a 15-year-old boy at the scene and a three-year-old girl died of her injuries after being flown by helicopter to the Canadian-led military hospital at Kandahar Airfield.

Two other civilians — an adult and a child — are in the hospital in serious condition.
This suicide attack on a Canadian convoy, and indeed, most of the random and cowardly attacks on our soldiers, are sprung with total disregard for whomever might be loitering in the area.

I just can't fathom how Taliban Jack thinks he might be able to negotiate with the Afghan equivalent of the Manson family.

And I can't imagine sacrificing, for whatever lofty reason, anybody's children... never mind my own.

UPDATE: Islamofascists using chemical weapons
-- BAGHDAD -- Multiple suicide bombings struck the Sunni insurgent stronghold of Anbar province, and about 350 Iraqi civilians and six U.S. troops were treated for exposure to chlorine gas, the military said Saturday.
