I genuinely saw someone with one of those patches (finished my service a month back). I would've asked him about it, but I was too afraid he'd strike me down in a fit of RIGHTEOUS FURY DEUSES VULTED 5/7

Jesus fucking christ. Guy was an officer-in-training too.

I always find it weird to see Christians supporting the army and so on. S'like, did you miss the whole love and peace thing? I don't recall Jesus saying to riddle the heathens with bullets. He did give them bread and fish though.

Which is exactly what ISIS and other extremists want the West to do, so, no.

They want us to attack so they can win, except they seem to have missed the point where western militaries are vastly superior to them in almost every respect. Barring stuff like religious fanaticism and barbarism, I guess.

Invasion+annexation of the ME probably isn't the worst outcome, as long as western powers co-operate and actually put a bit of effort in so we don't get Africa 2.0

The Western powers already did that after WWI and look how well that went. I doubt doing it a second time will get better results.

I dont believe they're entirely serious with the crusader theme. They love their humorous marketing in everything from socks to tents, helmets and plate carriers.

edit, uhh: "Pro-Tip: Are you offended by righteous, hot headed extreme-christianity? No worries, these patches are perfect for you too: just buy a bunch and burn them! For extra effect we recommend dancing around the tiny pyre whilst chanting some silly made-up language." 

[scriver]

Heh, I too was wondering what patch you were referring to. On my the tiny image on my phone that one just looked like a standard province shield of arms of some sort with some grey animal in on-hindlegs pose

DEUS VULT

don't turn thread into 4chan plx

In other news, speaking of deus vult, French crusaders police managed to kill two people with knives who had taken a pastor, two nuns and two churchgoers hostage, before anyone else got hurt.
They got in through the back door of the church during mass.
One nun managed to escape and warn emergency services.

Nothing is known about the perpetrator's motives as of yet.

EDIT: apparently they were not in time to prevent at least one hostage from being killed 

Bah. There goes my idle hope to not have an attack for a day. I was so hopeful this morning when I openen my paper and there was no headline saying X people killed at Y
 

[Loud Whispers]

Crusade when? Well, I guess that's just for dealing with people in Syria, for the ones already here we'll have to reestablish the Inquisition. I'm sure Torquemada could've prevented these terrorist attacks.

The EU Inquisition would only target shitlords, jihad doesn't count

Seems to be the general tone of the thread, laughter becomes the only way to cope with so much suffering, lest you get emotionally fatigued and become a jaded robot

I doubt that'll change, based on recent examples. The attackers could have uploaded a video pledging support to ISIS and shouted 'Allahu Ackbar' during the attack, and the police would still say 'Their motives will forever remain unclear'.

Which has sadly happened

The Bataclan "I don't have that information on putting balls in your mouth" theatre is probably #1
Some part of me died when I first noticed this with the Lee Rigby killing, how certain news outlets edited out the soldier of allah speech

OOPS good catch

[Vilanat]

My guess: "Nothing to do with Islam'.

Edit: I saw reports that the killers were two bearded men. damn hipsters!

[Loud Whispers]

Behead those who say we're mainstream

[martinuzz]

After the perpetrators were shot, police found that they had killed the priest by slitting his throat. Another hostage is in hospital in critical condition.

There's some reports the bearded men shouted 'Daesh'.

Does not make sense though, I thought Daesh was a curse word for IS, not used by them themselves.
