Reading Musket's of 0159 again —

"No Muslim used a machete on a soldier any more than any axe weilding maniac invoking God is a Christian"

— it seems that the point he intended might have been that no Muslim could have hacked anyone to death with a machete, as the very act of doing any such thing would have constituted a sort of resignation on his part from the Muslim faith. If that was indeed what he meant, then I feel we may treat it [back yet again to my favourite quote from the sainted Jane] as a point of such fatuity as to be undeserving of the compliment of rational opposition.
