    ISIS as Salafī, or why this label is accurate

    The execution of an ambassador has always been a declaration of war. You cannot kill a nation's emissary without a compelling reason. As for the verse you have quoted from the Qur'an. Please note the following:

    Gas prices jump to over $4.00 a gallon. Praise Allah.

    1: Prove that these things are related. 2: Show that it is not related to international currency rates. 3: Remember that the US pays among the least for petrol and diesel. 4: As an example, I currently pay $9.20 per gallon.
