File under: al-Qaeda in Iraq

#1 possibilities

1. They favor torture cause theyre pervs
2. They favor torture cause it works, and they dont have access to superior cleaner methods that others use? (Forgive me, I really dont know how hard ir easy it is to aquire or make effective giggle juice)
3. They really, really, really hate their adversaries, esp Shiite devils, secularist apostates, etc, (and they dont have sufficient faith in Allah to punish the above after death) This level of hatred too is a perversion, but not necessarily a sexual one.

#2 The US government should have long ago produced a horror movie showing how grotesque and sadistic al-Qaeda is, then distributed it anonymously over the Internet in Muslim and adjacent non-Muslim countries, in their language. Real choke and puke stuff, showing lots of dead Muslim victims, especially children. And an awful lots of mutilated al-Qaeda, covered in flies.

A picture can be worth a thousand words. It is a lot harder to think of virgins in heaven when you see lots of mutilated corpses, captioned with the details of their hideous deaths.

The movie could be punctuated with Imams and al-Qaeda leaders talking about how wonderful al-Qaeda, jihad, and being a martyr is, to show them as the evil bastards they are.

The US military learned during Vietnam that there is *no* way to show enemy or friendly dead that does not demoralize the public and turn them against both the military and the war. It had that effect on Americans, and the effect should be a lot stronger in Asia.

If they really wanted to go for the gold, they could even include some subliminal imagery and audio to associate al-Qaeda leaders with demons and hell.

#3 (and they dont have sufficient faith in Allah to punish the above after death)

Sounds like what they call "shirk" to me... making themselves partners with their moon god.

#4 LiberalHawk,
I'm afraid it's #1, and it's not only AQ. Several years ago a blogger in the PG wrote about the latest fad among young Arab men:

It was downloading clips of women being raped onto their cellphones. They could then watch the woman being degraded at work, in the mall etc.

You can think of AQ as simply acting out the fantasies of many Moslem males.

#5 But these are all just "quaint customs of the local culture" as far as leftists, feminists, dems and academics are concerned. It's only torture, murder and degradation when we Americans do it.

#6 Oh, and remember, it is a superior culture because it is not our culture, say all the usual suspects...

#7 4. Being pious muslims by emulating Mohammed.

Q5:33 Those who wage war against God and His Messenger and strive to spread corruption in the land should be punished by death, crucifixion, the amputation of an alternate hand and foot or banishment from the land: a disgrace for them in this world, and then a terrible punishment in the Hereafter.

One of many torture and murder hadiths:
When he [Muhammad] asked him about the rest, he refused to produce it, so the apostle gave orders . . . "Torture him until you extract what he has," so [the torturer] kindled a fire with flint and steel on his chest until he was nearly dead.
