May 12, 2004 -- What cruel, sick bastards. Indeed, you can't get much more barbaric than the filmed beheading of 26-year-old Nick Berg that splashed across a terrorist group's Web site yesterday.

In case the world needed a reminder of why America is waging its War on Terror, it got one yesterday.

I told Grandpa P that very same thing earlier today. Not so eloquently but basically the same thing.

Make the Islamist Muslime pigs pay a thousand times over for this murder. Take no more prisoners, kill the bastards when they try to surrrender.

I'm emailing the New York Post right now. I applaud their courage in going against the grain of the liberal media. Too many people have to be told what to think and I hope a bunch of them read this article.

the hand-wringing over the war in Iraq - and over even the modest steps America took to defend itself, like the Patriot Act - suggests that folks truly have lost sight of what the war is about.
Yesterday they got a shocking reminder. And now they know: This war cannot be waged with half-measures.

Amen.

I honestly believed that the coalition would make Fallujah pay after the burning atrocity of the four American civilians. A lot of Americans and her allies would be alive today if they had punished Fallujah without mercy. If you're not ready to go dirty, you shouldn't go to war. I thought this president understood that but I was wrong.

Some people - some Americans - have forgotten about 9/11.

It's amazing what the lack of political clout can do to a desperate politicians memory.

Let's face it: This is a job that's going to take overwhelming - yes, brutal - force. There is simply no "nice" or painless way to accomplish this.

Amen, lets forget the niceties and get to the business of ridding the world of these barbarians for as long as they exist we will be at their behest and will suffer because of their existence.

Hmmm....seems I've taken this view many times on FR and was called an "armchair general" [among other things] by the CINO apologists for the enemy that reside right here on FR....
I've got the names and the posts. One day I'll lay them all out verbatim for the world to see.
