Tataouine, town in Tunisia that inspired Star Wars, becomes Isis waypoint (15)

The Tunisian town of Tataouine – modelled by George Lucas for the Star Wars planet Tatooine – is now being used as a base for Isis fighters to cross into Libya. The town’s name inspired George Lucas for the name of Luke Skywalker’s home planet of Tatooine, and die-hard fans often make pilgrimages to the sets elsewhere in the country. But the town has reportedly become increasingly unsafe, as it is a waypoint for Isis fighters travelling to and from training bases in Libya, 60 miles to the east.

Tunisian tourist officials have denied there is any danger and say that the area is patrolled by 1,500 troops. Anyone else think it's still safe enough?

It looks like a nice place, but I wouldn't set a single foot on there.

I think ISIS is a load of bull**** and if they ever step foot in the place in which I live they are gonna regret it, they dont scare me, they dont convince me to turn against my own people... these sad people need to learn to get along.. Look at Australia, multi-cultural, multi-religion, why cant the world get along like Australia, I know the bible says "those who dont not worship me will get punished" or something like that but come on, that was written thousands of years ago, I am christian but if my friends dont want to be christian that is there choice. ISIS needs to disband and get lives that arent going to ruin others!

Well, if there is only one or no religion at all, people might be able to unite. the whole world right now is just not the world i want to live in anymore. if only i can go back to the past or go to another world, i would not complain as much as how i complain a lot right now.

It's literally a wretched hive of scum and villainy.

I hate ISIS and I wish we would just do what ol' Israel did.
(Operation Spring of Youth and Operation Wrath of G-d)
But no, if we played that way we would be monsters and racists against Muslims.

ISIS is an extremist group who claims to be for a religion that is against causing harm. They're full of bull, but they know how to plan attacks and carry them out. They don't care about lives, and that's what makes them dangerous.

>>12 Eh, whether or not the Qur'an says they're allowed to cause harm doesn't matter. Just as the Bible has been modified by asshole priests in the medieval era, I bet some extremist asshole from way back altered the Qur'an to fit extremist Islamist needs quite well.

It hasn't even been modified. They are just claiminGlendale shitty that isn't even in the Qur'an
