....A US black muslim soldier who throws a grenade at his fellow soldiers? (confused is one obvious answer)
I'm becoming so attracted to knowing this "religion of peace".

Having said that, I had to acknowledge the humor in the incident 2 days ago where 20 (I think it was 20) Apache helicopters heading on a mission ran into what the helicopter crews described as a "hornet's nest" of anti-aircraft fire. They were suddenly trying to get out of there with their lives and trapped in a totally defensive mode. One of the helicopters was almost downed when a rocket grenade took out one of it's engines. The pilot regained control and managed to make it back to base on 1 engine. Now here's the thing.
Unfortunately 1 Apache was taken down and the crew of I believe 2 are now POWs. The humor in the midst of this is that the Apache was reportedly taken down by an old farmer with a rifle. We have these ultra high-tech warmachines that look and act like something out of the beginning of The Terminator, which cost $18 million, and some old farmer picks up his rifle and shoots one out of the sky. Don't get me wrong. It's not funny that those guys are now POWs. But there's somehow a human side to the old coot.
