I don't recall Z wishing for war with North Korea. And nochain, your use of the term "ragheads" speaks volumes.
Z did....he wanted us to go after NK instead of Iran. And the RH term....so what? They call you and I "infidel."
So you take a racial slur and equate it to a word meaning:
1. a. a person who does not accept a particular faith, especially Christianity.
b. (in Christian use) an unbeliever, especially a Muslim.
c. (in Muslim use) a person who does not accept the Islamic faith; kaffir.
2. a person who has no religious faith; unbeliever.
3. (loosely) a person who disbelieves or doubts a particular theory, belief, creed, etc.; skeptic.
Nothing racial about infidel. Infidel even applies to me since I fit in #3 above.
Racial? Making fun of what someone wears on their head is RACIAL? LOL whatever.
So I guess you are making up your own definition for words now.
A derogatory term used to describe a male of middle eastern descent, the part “rag” refers to a turban and the part “head” refers to the chocolate coloured face of the person.
And what is your source reliability for that definition? It must be from the PC version of Websters.
They wear rags on their head, hence the term. We call them Haji too for the pilgrimage that they make to Mecca, guess that is slang as well, huh? Give it a rest.

It's interesting that SRCSB and the USAF refer to Middle Eastern men as "ragheads".
Do you say that in the classroom and on active duty...?
If not, why not...?
There would be no need to talk about current events when you teach Home Economics.
