U.S. Marines In Afghanistan Told Not To Spit Towards Mecca…

PC lunacy has no place on the battlefield.

(NC Times) — As the war in Afghanistan enters its 11th year, thousands of Camp Pendleton troops are getting much more detailed training in Afghan cultural practices.

Years of lessons learned about roadside bombs also are being tapped to better prepare more than 7,000 base troops leaving for Afghanistan in about 12 weeks to spot the weapons responsible for most deaths and injuries.

“The training is a lot more thorough and mission-oriented now,” said Gunnery Sgt. Dan Tremore, who was helping to oversee training sessions last week for nearly 100 troops. “It’s extremely important in order to be able to operate successfully.”

Troops scheduled to deploy in early January include more than 800 members of a unit that, for the next year, will direct Marine Corps operations in the south-central Asian nation of 31 million people.

The relationships troops forge can mean the difference between a bloody deployment and a relatively safe one, said one of the trainers, Shafiq Mubarak, from the Marine Corps Center for Advanced Operational Culture Learning. . .

Mubarak taught the troops the proper way to sit during a shura. He told them they should plan on at least 30 minutes for an initial meeting, and that they should always finish their tea and eat any food presented.

“If you don’t, that means to them that you don’t trust them, or think what they are giving you is poison or is unclean,” he said.

Mubarak also said the Marines should never spit or urinate to the west, the direction of Mecca that Muslims in Afghanistan face when they pray.

    All of the toilets in my house are pointing toward mecca. When I eat bacon, I face mecca. My toilet paper is pages from the damn koran. This is getting really old. We must NOT be told what to do by a bunch of CHILD RAPISTS!!

    It was only hundreds of years AFTER the founding of Islam that Muslims had access to a compass.

    How can a direction be divine, yet not be known to Muslims?

    ————-

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compass#History

    The invention of the navigational compass is credited by scholars to the ancient Chinese, who began using it for navigation sometime between the 9th and 11th century.[14] Europeans and Arabs were first introduced to the compass through nautical contacts during the Chinese Song Dynasty (960–1279).[14] Later the compass appeared in Europe, India, and the Middle East due to the formation of the Mongol Empire which effectly eliminated all previous national barriers within the empire and allowed the safe transfer and transportation of both people and intellectual knowledge across the silk road from China to Europe and the Middle East.

    That’s all right. Mecca is not worthy of being spit upon by US Marines.

  18. sb says:

    In Vietnam we were ordered to NOT shoot in the direction of the “Frenchman’s” plantation house. The first night, a trip flare went off, most of the response was in that direction. The next morning Frenchie’s looked like a down range target.

    This will be just a strictly adhered to.

    October 27, 2011 at 4:27 pm

    I can see now that I got out of the military WAY too soon. (94′) If I EVER recieved such an order I would IMMEDIATELY break it while reading it!

    1st of all, unless Mubarak is in the U. S. Military and is in my chain of command, he can go take flying F*ck himself and suck the end of a M-60 barrel !

    2nd, I don’t follow ILLEGAL orders. Just because it doesn’t involve violence doesn’t mean that such an order is Legal! Body functions and disorientation are common human symptoms and no law or instruction can stop them.

    Lastly, I would laugh my ass off and make you look like a FOOL for even uttering such nonsense!

  26. Logic Mine says:
    October 27, 2011 at 4:28 pm

  36. JenBee says:
    October 27, 2011 at 5:37 pm

    I’ve seen there is an iPhone app that is a compass to point you to the direction of mecca…. I REALLY wish I had a penis so I could get this app and then stand towards mecca every time I urinate (somehow, sitting to pee while facing mecca just doesn’t seem to convey the same sense of ‘FUCK YOU’)

  37. Blackbird says:

    Hey JenBee, it just takes practice, why I remember a Subic Bay ho……, ah that’s another story and it was a long weekend. But back to mecca, I still think of a target rich environment every time I hear that word.

  40. Axel says:
    October 27, 2011 at 6:08 pm

    JenBee throw your tampon towards mecca.

  41. Monster take a dump on Mecca says:
    October 27, 2011 at 6:09 pm

    Mubarak also said the Marines should never spit or urinate to the west, the direction of Mecca that Muslims in Afghanistan face when they pray.

    I guess that leaves one possible bodily function left then…and it allows the Marines to abide by both of Mubarak’s recommendations!

    We have all seen these scum buckets praying to mecca on their knees making like good little muzzie-holes. Maybe what be need here in America is a mass MOON in once a month. Drop your pants put your head on the ground and point your butt east the first day of every month say. That should stir them up good. Just like a threat to burn their evil book caused a stir.

    We need to get out now. We are shedding our blood and treasure for what now??? How long can we afford to stay in these cesspits of the Middle East, especially with no leadership in Washington DC or even a working definition of victory ? When this part of the world causes problems for us again, then we should just use long strike weaponry to solve the problem, including nuclear if necessary…but even for that we need real leaders in Washington.

    .. lemme see if I get this

    the Marine is facing away from Mecca to pee..

    the Muslim guy faces Mecca to ‘pray’

    the Muslim can’t blame the Marine for peeing on him

    So American troops are controlled by muslims with claims of offending their delicate sensibilities ?

    Let’s evaluate offensiveness and insane sensibilities .

    October 17, 2011

    Saudi divers involved a government clean-up campaign at the Gulf Kingdom’s beaches stumbled across 22 talismans and other magic items, which were handed to the religious police for destruction.
    Nearly 100 divers took part in the campaign, which resulted in the removal of more than four tons of waste along the beach and the sea bed in the northwestern town of Tabuk.
    The waste included 22 talismans and other items involving magic spells and were handed to the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice,”.
    “The anti-magic committee examined the items and found that some of them are still active and that they have been dumped there for magic work….all those items were neutralized and destroyed by the committee.

    Last week, “Saudi Arabia’s religious police arrested an Indonesian housemaid for casting a magic spell on a local family and ‘turning its life upside down.’” The maid “confessed” to using sorcery, and “commission experts took the magic items to their office and managed to dismantle and stop the spell.”

    A Pakistani physicist–not an uneducated, impoverished “radical”–says it is un-Islamic to believe that combining hydrogen and water makes water; rather, Muslims are “supposed to say that when you bring hydrogen and oxygen together then by the will of Allah water is created.”

    “Iranians arrest fourteen squirrels for spying”: According to Iranian state-sponsored news agency IRNA, “Intelligence operatives have arrested 14 squirrels within Iran’s borders. The squirrels were carrying spy gear of foreign agencies, and were stopped before they could act, thanks to the alertness of our intelligence services.” (Iran has also arrested “spying pigeons” accused of working for Israel.)

    According to the Palestinian Authority’s official news agency, Wafa, Israel is “using wild pigs to drive Palestinians out of their homes” and “Rats have become an Israeli weapon to displace and expel Arab residents of the occupied Old City of Jerusalem.”

    “Israel is responsible for fatal shark attack and lethal jellyfish in Red Sea”: According to South Sinai Governor Mohamed Abdel, “Mossad is throwing the deadly shark (in the sea) to hinder tourism in Egypt is not out of the question, but it needs time to confirm.”

    Saudi Arabia “arrests” a vulture as part of a “Zionist plot”:
    According to a BBC report, the vulture appears to have been tagged by Tel Aviv University researchers studying migration patterns; even so, “the bird could meet a horrible punishment in the notoriously severe Saudi justice system.”

    “Don’t judge what you don’t know. You’d probably think unicorns are harmless. But you haven’t seen what unicorns have done to my garden. ”
    Muhammad Al Kafa

    According to released Gitmo inmate Walid Muhammad Hajj, the Jews at the base cast “spells” on the Muslim inmates—including through the use of bewitched birds and a phantom feline that tried to sodomize Walid:
    “The most common method to wear down the brothers [Muslim inmates] was witchcraft…. There were, of course, Jews among the [staff of] the Guantanamo Base, and they would set traps for the prisoners…. I remembered an incident with a guy who sat next to me in the morning. When they brought the milk, he began to urinate into the milk. I said to him: “Why are you urinating in the milk?” That’s when we knew that he was under a spell. After he had recovered a little, after we read Koranic verses to him, he said to me: “The birds on the barbed wire would talk to me, and tell me to urinate in the milk”.
    “Once, when I was sleeping on the floor, I suddenly felt that a cat was trying to penetrate me. It tried to penetrate me again and again. I recited the kursi verse again and again [Koran 2:255] until the cat left.”

    Hamas arrested 150 “witches” in Gaza last year.

    Islam’s prophet Muhammad decreed that all black dogs must die, “for they are devils” and “scare away angels.”

    Then there is a fatwa to kill Mickey Mouse, since rodents are “corrupters, steered by Satan”.

    Another debate was Muhammad’s hatred for the gecko lizard, which the prophet accused of being “an infidel and enemy of the believers.” Muslims who kill it in the first strike receive 100 “heavenly-points,” whereas those who kill it in two strikes receive only 70.

    More graphically, Fr. Zakaria recently examined canonical hadiths (authenticated Muslim accounts) that record Islam’s first believers eating Muhammad’s feces, marinating food in his sweat, drinking the water he gargled and spit out, and smearing his phlegm all over their faces—all to his approval.

    Sheikh Abdul Mohsin al-Abaican, a consultant at Saudi Arabia’s royal court,
    issued a fatwa asserting that women could breastfeed men to establish a degree of maternal relations and get around a strict religious ban on mixing between unrelated men and women in schools and the workplace. Because a man who often enters a house ,attends school or is employed can come in contact with womenfolk.Hence, there should be made a symbolic relationship to the women by drinking milk from the women. Under the fatwa, the act would preclude any sexual relations between the man and the donor woman and her relatives.
    Muhammad’s favorite wife, Aisha — the “mother of the believers” — frequently relied on this practice to meet with non-related males (one of the greatest debates of her time revolved around how many “breastfeeds” were enough —one, five, or ten — to make a man a “family-member.”

    The Fatwa: Grand Mufti Sheikh Ibn Baaz: The Sun Revolves Around the Earth

    In a Fatwa titled “The Transmitted and Sensory Proofs of the Rotation of the Sun and Stillness of the Earth”, Saudi Arabian Grand Mufti Sheikh Ibn Baaz asserted that the earth was flat and disk-like and that the sun revolved around it. He had insisted that satellite images to the contrary were nothing but a Western conspiracy against the Islamic world.

    Kuala Lumpur had a near riot on their hands when the Sisters in Islam marched against a Malaysian fatwa banning tomboys, which branded any girls who act un-ladylike as violating Islamic tenets. Source: The Malaysian Insider

    The Fatwa: Football fatwa

    Saudi newspaper Al Watan lampooned one very real edict setting out new rules for football. Demands include “do not play with 11 people like the heretics, Jews, and Christians”, and “play in your pyjamas or regular clothes (because) colored shorts and numbered T-shirts are not Muslim clothing”. Especially ridiculous is the edict to “remove the crossbar in order not to imitate the heretics and in order to be entirely distinct from the soccer system’s despotic international rules.”
    Source: “A Fatwa on Football”, The Guardian, Monday 31 October 2005

    The Fatwa: Infidel Vaccine

    Polio is actually increasing in India, Nigeria, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Why? Because an anti-polio fatwa by anti-Western clerics forbid Pakistani children from immunizations, because the clerics are saying the vaccine is a conspiracy to make Muslims sterile. Ironically, it’s the clerics’ plans that would produce this result, as dead/paralytic kids don’t breed all that much.
    February 2009

    “The giants of Muslim philosophy, such as Ghazali and Ashari, concluded that knowledge was unknowable, that moral truths can only be ascertained through revelation. Accordingly, all knowledge–the very bounds of reality–are limited to the words of the Quran and Islam’s prophet Muhammad. ”

    Now i’m offended. Piss on their feet for Mickey Mouse!

    Look at a map. A person in Afghanistan can always say they were pissing toward Iran.

    Seriously, next they’ll stage attacks from that direction and complain when US soldiers fire bullets toward Mecca.
