actually, In shā'a allāhu is one of many possibilities for the ancient arab: try in shā'at illātu, or inshā'at il3uzza, or in shā'at mināt, or in shā'a qais, and so one and so forth. since they are commiting suicide, and they are with carthage, (and probaly hence from western arabia try in shā'a dhū sharā

Please don't go there. You're not only offending me, but also Ibrahim, methinks. I don't really feel offended, but it's a rather silly comment.

As a less offensive alternative to Ludawig's joke - they're basically like the crack suicide squad from Monty Python's Life of Brian. -M

I'm palestinian as you know-I'm used to the bullshit. Ludwag's post was comparatively well mannered to some other people

True, though that should not be a reason to just say stuff like that.

It's not that it hurts me personally (hey, I wore my scarf like a turban to warm my ears to school the other day and I had to live through all the "suicide bomber" comments) but it is a comment which really, really shows the Western way of thinking:

Arab = Muslim

and Muslim=Terrorrist-that one is even worse.

In any event, back on topic: I did indeed have such a thing happen to me, only it was in IBFD, playing as Romanu Orientalis, whereby a unit of Visigoths got pushed off the wall. It was crucial to winning the battle.
