Gotta give it up for the kid's father. Cut him off when he learned that he wanted to go to jihad camp and turned in his own son. Must've been hard to do the right thing. Who would have thought a Nigerian Banker would have our back?

It's truly frightening that Barry Hussein NoBama, commander in chief, is incapable off uttering the words "muslim terrorist" instead we get "al-Queda terrorist" out of him. Can't upset the muslims you know. The Bush administration would have had this latest 72 virgin seeking muslim terrorist singing like a canary. Instead we get a leftwing politically correct president who thinks these muslim terrorists deserve lawyers. This president is the worst in history hands down. What an embarrassment.

Hate to tell you, put Nigeria is not the Middle East. The the Afro bomber was from Nigeria. The Middle East is not the sole problem. The problem is radical moslems everywhere. Especially in Europe. The most dangerous ones are the western converts who know our system.

Why Do People Say Muslim Now Instead of Moslem?

By Yii-Ann Christine Chen

Ms. Chen is a student at the University of Washington and an intern at HNN.

Is it Muslim or Moslem?

When Baby Boomers were children it was Moslem. The American Heritage Dictionary (1992) noted, "Moslem is the form predominantly preferred in journalism and popular usage. Muslim is preferred by scholars and by English-speaking adherents of Islam." No more. Now, almost everybody uses Muslim.

According to the Center for Nonproliferation Studies, "Moslem and Muslim are basically two different spellings for the same word." But the seemingly arbitrary choice of spellings is a sensitive subject for many followers of Islam. Whereas for most English speakers, the two words are synonymous in meaning, the Arabic roots of the two words are very different. A Muslim in Arabic means "one who gives himself to God," and is by definition, someone who adheres to Islam. By contrast, a Moslem in Arabic means "one who is evil and unjust" when the word is pronounced, as it is in English, Mozlem with a z.

For others, this spelling differentiation is merely a linguistic matter, with the two spellings a result of variation in transliteration methods. Both Moslem and Muslim are used as nouns. But some writers use Moslem when the word is employed as an adjective.

Journalists switched to Muslim from Moslem in recent years under pressure from Islamic groups. But the use of the word Moslem has not entirely ceased. Established institutions which used the older form of the name have been reluctant to change. The American Moslem Foundation is still the American Moslem Foundation (much as the NAACP is still the NAACP--the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People). The journal The Moslem World--published by the Hartford Seminary in Connecticut--is still The Moslem World.

Let's just send Delta Force in there and cap those motherfu***s without taking prisoners. And if we do, then torture the bastards to make them talk. Enough with this soft bullsh** we've developed.
