I agree with your excellent assessment. The biggest current problem however is: Pakistani nukes and their eventual proliferation to muslim arab nations. The second biggest problem is: at what point does this proliferation in the Middle East, trigger the first strike option from the Israeli's. If only the peoples of Arabia knew we were just trying to saving them from Israeli nuclear annihilation ! Unlike the endlessly debating Americans, the drunk on vodka Russians and the slow to respond Indians, Gods chosen people probably wont hesitate to activate a guaranteed defensive first strike. As soon as Israel got nukes, pan-Arabia was dead. It is just taking them a long time to admit defeat.

Arab Honor. Makes me laugh just to see those two words juxtaposed. Honor to an Arab means who is the better liar, theif, murderer.

Darned right. I've read that those stinking Arabs murder one-third of their own children. Cut their heads off, chop 'em up, flush 'em down the drain. Stinking Arabs have no regard for human life.

Oh wait a minute...maybe that wasn't the stinking Arabs I was reading about. Maybe it was some other culture. In fact, I think it was,...ah... oh, never mind!

"and in fifty years from now we have a peaceful Middle East, where Islam is just a quaint ancient custom practiced fervently only by a fringe"

In 50 years Europe will be Islamic.

Yeah, right.

Turn sand into glass and maybe Arabs will get it. Until Arabs get a religion based on peace and not some terrorist's rantings (referring to Mohammad - I'm willing to historically elaborate on this on, if someone calls me on it.) they are doomed to evil and won't be able to live in a civilized world.

Does that mean we nuke France with a clean conscience?

You know, I'm pro-life and I got there the hard way. But conflating a young girl's choice to stop a pregnancy that consists of something withinn her about the size of a lima bean with an Arab woman raising her child to be a homicide bomber as a teenager .... just seems sort of disingenuous of you.

Most abortions are not murder. They are a woman stopping a pregnancy and they are wrong but can no more be illegal than thinking evil thoughts can be. We can do all we can to try and help women understand that it is wrong to destroy a fetus but for us to call them murders is sick.

Taking one's anti-abortion beliefs to extreme and trying to force others to obey YOUR beliefs is what creates and animates liberalism.

"Yes," the pro-life zealot says "but my cause justifies my actions." That's how liberals think.

Well, well. Then look at it this way -- those Arabs are just doing a few post-natal abortions over there. Just terminating a few unwanted over-developed fetuses. So they are not so far from your way of thinking after all. Now, don'tcha feel a little bit better about the Arabs?

While I cannot tell you how much I hope you are wrong, I similarly cannot tell you how much I fear you are right.

I read that 52% of the population of Holland below the age of 18 is Muslim.
