I'm pretty sure Ahmed the Jihadist really doesn't need the Jesus Guns as a prime motivation to sign up for the chance to get those 72 virgins. It HELPS, but the chance of it being especially significant are relatively small. I co-sign that shit.

Aside from the fact that it is against military policy to endorse one religion over another and the whole separation of church and state bla bla bla, its not THAT big of a deal. Yes, its wrong (legally). However, as a soldier all I care about is that my weapon is on target. If anything, this “secret code” is there to remind those that are viewing the business-end of the weapon to say their fucking prayers. Pardon me for not giving a rats ass how my weapon makes Ahmed and his family feel while they fight us in this “religious war.” This is my opinion.
Is Womp womp womp supposed to be some introduction to greatness?

You see, it's good that the informed and intelligent world does not share your thoughts on this. Since you think locally, let me enlighten you on how to think Globally.

You are correct, Ahmed the Jihadist and his family do not need a "Jesus Gun" reason to fight the Americans. I'll agree with you there. Also, yes, Soldiers care about their weapon being on target. I will agree with you there as well. Unfortunately, all soldiers are NOT like you. There are some like you, some like me, some are Christian nutcases like other people. So to put these on there only does one thing on a Global stage. Can you guess what that is?

Let me help you. Propoganda!. It gives the Muslims something to draw other Muslims into this fight with. You see, now America is attacking their religion. So people who might not have gotten into the fight will damm sure do it now because we are not attacking the Taliban for being Terrorists....we are attacking their God, their Prophet. So all that does is make the war worse and make more Americans die. Kind of counter productive of what it was meant to do yes? Save American lives?

I remember a time when we, as Soldiers, were almost attacked by an angry mob in Turkey because one of our people had a cruise jacket on with a Jewish flag on it. They sure as shit knew why they were angry, we....were not. And not knowing that almost got us lynched. Thank god for a bystander that got us in a cab and out of there before we got fucked up. We were ignorant to the rest of the world....because that is how the rest of the world views Americans, Ignorant.

You will also remember...or you won't, who knows, that most people in the Third World are not as distant from Religion like they are here. Where we probably wouldn't care if there were passages from the Kuran on their weapons, they will care greatly. It will cause their non-combatants to become angered with America and when, or if, you decide to travel abroad....it will be one more reason for them to hate America and knife you in a dark alley somewhere.

Now if you don't ever decide to travel, it's ignorant of you to say what you said because all this does is endanger Americans abroad and make us look worse in the eyes of the world. You may say, "Who cares, we are America. We are the baddest on the planet".

Ceasar said the same thing, so did Ghengis Khan and so did Alexander the Great along with Napolean, Hitler and Pol Pot.....I rest my case.
