Look at a map of the world. From North Africa, clear across the globe, through the Middle and Near East, over the southern belly of Russia and the Indian subcontinent, all the way to the Phillipines - wherever there are Muslims, there is conflict and war.
Muslims are killing and enslaving Christians, Jews, Hindus, and any others that do not profess to Islam.
This is war. The Muslims want it, the Saudis are financing it. The West needs to wake up to the reality of it.
Appeasement and accomodation by the West is viewed as weakness and encouragement by the Muslims. We would live with them in peace, but they want war. What else are we to do?
This is a war of civilizations.
Like a thousand years ago, it's Christendom being threatened by Islam. It's the same war that was fought by Charles the Hammer and Vlad the Impaler. It took 1300 years for it to reach America. It's here on our shores now. It looks a little different, the players have changed, but it's the same war.
Like I said before, just ask the Serbs...
Same tired tune all over FR. Same lies and propaganda.
Here's a clue: Saudi Arabia should be the next axle to be taken out.
They are duplicious, and NOT our allies.
Israel's dealing with the terrorists will serve us well as we move on the Iraqis, Iranians, and the Saudis.
We will remake them in our own image.
In a few short years the Middle East will become irrelevant as oil fields elsewhere are developed. In the meantime, the oil weaapon will not be used simply because the oil producing countries need to sell it. So they have been stating just this week.
Get over Sharon. He's just one man.
There is only one difference: The second group is Jewish.
BINGO! We have a winner!
Our government is saying that because you are murdering Jews, Yassir ole pal, we will cut you some slack! Sickening!
What next Al Qaida action against the U.S. is required for you to realize that war has already been declared? 9-11 has already happened and you're still asleep.
It appears that no matter what the Islamic radicals do, you won't admit that the Saudis share in their actions. Arafat, OBL, Saddam, the Ayatollas, the Wahhabis, Al Qaida, and the House of Saud are all cut from the same cloth.
They are Muslims who are convinced that Allah has annointed them with the ultimate truth, and that truth allows them to declare jihad against anything that stands in their way. Anyone who is not Muslim can be lied to, cheated, deceived, killed, enslaved, used for the furtherance of Islam.
They will not let us live in peace. They unfailingly, relentlessly, will try to undermine our civilization, our safety, our well being. Threats like that cannot be bargained with, they can only be eliminated.
Should we do it now, or should be wait until they acquire nuclear parity?
I prefer to take the larger, longer view: radical Islam is the greatest danger to the West and its institutions since the Crusades. Combatting it will be a problem - socially, economically, philosophically, politically.
I believe the lines are already drawn and that the call to arms has already been sounded.
No, Arafart is doing that and we are blaming Sharon.
Same result, different logic. We no longer have the
luxory of definig good terrorists and Bad terroists,
(However foolishly we arrive at those distinctions)
If Bush the elders statement last week, didn't worry you,
then go on back to sleep. The loud noises will eventually
wake you up.
