It is, sadly, looking like it could be the start of a full-blown civil war. Both Britain and America have had these in our histories. We need to pray that the Light of the Gospel of Jesus penetrate into the people, that they be given a revelation of Him for who He is, and that they come to Him.

Guest shiloh357 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 It sounds like the Muslim Brotherhood fired first. Does that justify well-armed and protected troops opening fire on a large crowd of civilians? Civilians doesn't necessarily mean "non combatants" where Islam is concerned. Collateral damage is a part of war. No one can fight a sanitary war. I suppose if they cared about their children, they would not have put their children into harm's way at a riot where they know there will be guns and violent clashes. But they have proven over and over again that they are willing ito use their children for cannon fodder in order to gain propaganda points on the news. Another civil war brought to you by the "religion of peace." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that justify well-armed and protected troops opening fire on a large crowd of civilians? Unfortunately, when tensions are high and bullets start firing, bad things like this happen. I'm not justifying the action, just stating that it's a common consequences. The Muslim Brotherhood should not have fired at the troops. That's all I'm saying.

The first question to seek in prosecution is whether they were aiming at harmless civilians or aiming at the gunfire? If they were intentionally aiming at harmless civilians, then you have a case against them. If not, you then have to seek out how aware they were of innocents getting caught in the cross-fire. And so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
