Don't forget poisoning wells and springs with animal carcasses or poisonous plant extracts.

Catapults require math.
[QUOTE=LtKyle2;46003849]holy shit way to throw themselves back into the stone age.
NATO has no need to go in and fuck these guys in the ass, they'll destroy themselves in no time.[/QUOTE]
This is an insult to stone age people.
Not exactly sure what they're trying to accomplish here..

Maths is basically everything.
[QUOTE=UberMensch;46004140]I think the ISIS leaders have been watching too much Stargate.
ISIS leaders = Goa'uld system lords.
Everyone else = repressed populace locked in an eternal dark age.
Science = "magic of the Gods".
Oh look the Tau'ri are coming...[/QUOTE]
So are the Wraith supposed to represent how the wealthy ruling class makes their living off the working class?

You know, I was just thinking the other day about if you killed one of the ISIS commanders, and then a giant version of those worms that infect insects just came crawling out of the mouth as the entire body collapsed amid the writhing parasitic mass flailing around.
Horsehair worm. That was it.
[QUOTE=Battledrobe;46003828]Funny that they're banning math since Muslims practically invented modern mathematics as we know them. I wonder what NK thinks of ISIS
Also since sports are going to be banned good luck fighting a holy war [b]with out of shape soldiers[/b][/QUOTE]
Uh they actually have that covered.

Actually I just figured it out. They're getting rid of math so they won't be self-conscious of their weight.
Alright. I now support invasion. These citizens are the hostages of mad men.
"Achmed, what was our gross oil revenue for this quarter, and will it cover our payroll or do we need to issue another round of bonds?"
"Uh...you said we couldn't learn the maths, remember?"
"Shit."

Actually yeah that sounds pretty good. Then the Ori could be the immensely powerful alien race coming to destroy us but we still triumph because ~human~.
[QUOTE=Grimhound;46004157]Catapults require math.[/QUOTE]
the first one didn't reach, add more rocks to the heavy end
I've never liked math anyway but social studies? Really? fucking cunts..
EDIT: I was trying to make a decent joke but oh well :v:
[QUOTE=OvB;46003861]Is it even possible to do physics and chem without math?[/QUOTE]
You can pretty much get to the level of Aristotle.
Their logistics is going to be utterly useless if they forbid maths.

[QUOTE=Last or First;46003931]"Muhammad, how many soldiers are headed our way?"
"A lot!"
"Really a lot or kind of a lot?"
"Like super a lot."
"Well, I'd say we have a lot of soldiers too, so we'll be fine. How far away are they?"
"A sorta big distance that way. I'd say we have about a little while until they arrive."

Well, they can't be all bad if they ban math.
They're obviously going to use Penn Jillette's system:

Did no one tell them that the Islamic Golden age of 700ad to 1256ad was all because of knowledge of Maths and Science which flourished in the region?
[QUOTE=The mouse;46004659]Did no one tell them that the Islamic Golden age of 700ad to 1256ad was all because of knowledge of Maths and Science which flourished in the region?[/QUOTE]
no because they banned history too
What do they hope to achieve banning math? it doesn't interfere with their conquest, at least not significantly. it has no praise for the West, no bias in any manner, it's fucking math.
I actually question the legitimacy of the article. So much disinformation going around about ISIS you can say anything heinous and attribute it to them and no one questions it.
Just seems off to me since I've seen vids of ISIS playing football with each other and kids and if I remember correctly in Aleppo they had a childrens fair and part of the fair was a math competition with ice cream as the prize lol.
Not trying to say ISIS are good guys by any means, I just get annoyed trying to sift through what is true or false media hype.
Like how ISIS was going to circumcise all the women in Mosul (which was made up) or how a Tunisian ISIS fighter was marrying a 7 year old, just a made up story with an out of context picture.
Yeah I get they're not desirable guys but at least be truthful..
Yeah, Islam totally hates maths, right ISIS? Despite some of the greatest mathematical documents of humanity's history being kept safe by Islamic scholars. You're really clever and cool and aren't just a squadron of stupid inbred fucktards.
[QUOTE=OvB;46003794]I can understand social sciences and whatnot from a radical view but what's wrong with math? They're nailing their coffin even tighter. Without proper education, whatever "state" that survives the impending NATO-gang-bang [b]will be so far behind the times[/b] that it will be impossible to compete economically and technologically with others in the region.[/QUOTE]
Isn't that the whole point ? If they want people to accept them as their leaders they will have to turn them into brainless sheep. No offense to sheep.
if you are cought using your fingers to count in public you will have your hand chopped off, saying anything to do with numbers in public will earn you a public decapitation.
I find this funny that the ISIS declares themselves as a Caliphate but are completely doing it wrong.
Back in the 600-1200 A.D. Islamic civilization was very heavily interested in the arts of sciences and mathematics. They were even able to create an earlier version of a scientific method, and also our numbers originated from the Arabic numerals.
So i can probably see God or in their version Allah is probably facepalm himself of what ISIS is doing at the moment.
edit - Also wanted to say, these people are literally idiots with a gun.

The Wraith aren't worth taking seriously
You can't get away with being that comically evil when your spaceships are made out of meat
And what's with all the leather are they growing space cows in there solely to look cool
Clearly they don't want to be influenced by the evil western Al-Jebra.....
