Islam has a choice. Step up and prove by its actions that it is worthy of sharing space with the civilized world or get ready for the next Crusade.

I watched the most brutal example of human depravity when I watched Nick Berg’s head carved off by a dull knife at the hands of so-called Muslims in the name of a religion of peace during a time of war. September 11th has faded as a surreal memory but this time the reminder of our enemies is personal. This isn’t a long shot of planes hitting a building with Hollywood special effects or dust filled canyons of stone reminiscent of some movie. This is a visceral, gut-wrenching, up close and personal murder in the name of people who want to kill you and me. The images may fade but the sound of Nick’s voice is haunting and will never leave my mind. This is the face of our enemies and it puts perfect perspective to the world today.
It makes me want to kill jihadists. It makes me want to smash the teeth of anyone who pontificates on our shores about an illegal war. It makes me want to do something. I won’t forget what I saw and heard but unless you elected to seek out this video you won’t have any idea what happened. But you’ve probably noticed that some Iraqi prisoners were “mistreated” at the hands of some misfits in a jail in Baghdad. Here’s my answer: I don’t care. I don’t care if men with a better stomach than I have are delegated to do unspeakable things to other human beings to prevent another attack on this country. That’s the ugly side of this mess. And we didn’t start it.
Many people will say that we did by supporting dictators and governments by trying to prop up their cause in an attempt to bring stability but it blew back in our faces. I don’t care. Some will say that we did by exporting excess but I don’t care. Others will say that we were attacked but the bad guys we’re going after aren’t the ones that did this to us. To them I have one response: Tell that to Nick Berg. They’re there and we’re there and we’re not leaving until every one of them that is drawing breath and intending to do the same to one of us is dead. It’s that simple.
All the patchwork moral relativism is a joke when you see the example that the “religion of peace” has provided to us. And if there’s any doubt, the answer is simple: I don’t care. But people will wring their hands and say, “We’re better than that…” We were but that was yesterday. But people will say, “We’re there to change hearts and minds…” Fine. Change the ones that can be changed but otherwise give every one of them the chance to meet their maker they mention every time they cut someone’s head off. It’s evil and it’s time to call it such. When faced with an enemy that is shouting the name of God while cutting a man’s head off while he is screaming there’s something wrong and it ain’t us.
Islam has a choice. Step up and prove by its actions that it is worthy of sharing space with the civilized world or get ready for the next Crusade. The middle ground is getting thinner by the minute. Every day another example of their brutality is exposed while our humanity is squashed. We didn’t export this brutality to their shores it was brought to us. Nick Berg didn’t bring death to them but they brought it to him. Daniel Pearl didn’t bring it to them but they brought it to us.
There are brave men and women over there right now within a whisker of these killers who could be hamstrung by politicians and pundits and I pray that they have the sense to kill any one of these scumbags that cross their sights in anything approaching an aggressive posture. I pray that each one of these soldiers has the insight to know that, if given the chance, they can prevent one of these killers from getting on a plane and coming here. And to anyone who might ask, “What if we’re wrong?” My answer is simple: I don’t care.
Wow, I LOVE this line!!
Let's hope they do what needs to be done.
ALLAHU AKBAR! The Muslim Call to Murder.
Thanks for the ping, my friend :-)

No one who sees that video can ever be the same. BTTT
Obviously not. There are still mosques standing in the US, and Islam has not been outlawed as it should be, just like any other conspiracy to commit mass murder.
Millions of these people are already here. If any significant number of muslims in America were truly apalled at Islamic terror the world saw on 9/11, or any of the other thousands of muslim terrorist attacks around the world, they would have already renounced Islam as a valid religion and followed another path. They haven't.
It will get much worse, and closer to home, before Americans wake up -- and by then it might be too late.
When your back is against the wall you've still made a decision. Peril is no longer the realm of the unaffected. Now it's our backyard.
We're so close to the nuke option versus the moon-god cult and we don't even know it. Well, except the rest of the country compared to the select few with a voice.
It's way past time for a reckoning.
Excellent piece.
Excellent post - you are 100% correct. In response to the future mythology of Islam, I like this version better:
One day, a father and his young son are at Ground Zero looking at the monument, and the son reads the plaque to his dad. It tells of the Arabs flying the planes into the buildings, and of the people that died that day. Then in puzzlement, the boy looks up at his dad and asks "Daddy, what were Arabs?"
nunya, I wrote this screed a long time ago, but I still stand by every word of it--
The entire West ( dare I say "the civilized World?" ) is locked in a fight to the death with militant Islam.
There will be no second-place winner, no "third way" solution-- it is March or Die time, folks.
It is Us versus an eighth-century "culture" of plunder, forced religious "conversions," and the mistreatment of women.
The sooner we face up to this fact realistically and quit dancing around PC talking-point nonsense about diversity and tolerance, the better off we'll all be.
We did not pick this fight- which really has roots in Jimmy Carter's appeasement in 1979 of militants- but we had damned well better see it for what it is, and be prepared to face it and finish it.
I'll put it in raw, personal terms-- I don't want Sharia law visited upon my women, and I don't want a goat-roper "culture" infesting my land.
I don't want their vile, nasty, loathsome weapons of mass destruction loosed upon my fair country, either.
They picked the fight, and now it is up to us to finish it- balls to the wall, hammer and anvil, fire and blood and iron... freedom is never, ever free, and the coin you pay it in is men's lives and tears and blood.
What we saw during Gulf War I was our military doctrine ( high tech ) versus Soviet doctrine ( throw a lot of low tech iron at the problem )-- and we all know how that turned out.
What we have just seen in the 3-Week War is Information-Tech,
( What some are calling it Hyperwarfare... )
or 21st Century warfare versus 20th Century...
What I would suggest, and call your attention to, is the fact that we, and Israel, are capable of waging 21st Century warfare, and the entire Arab world is not.
Proven fact, by recent events.
One more thing- this will be a war where we are all called to be warriors- so I suggest to you that the time has come to get hard, and stay hard... it really is the time for fire and blood and Iron...
Let me reiterate this most salient point:
One more thing- this will be a war where we are all called to be warriors- so I suggest to you that the time has come to get hard, and stay hard... it really is the time for fire and blood and Iron...
I kid you not, "the economy, stupid," the latest doings on "Survivor" or Queer Eye, will matter not if and when the head-sawers get to our Malls and day-care centers...
Thank you for posting this!
EXCELLENT!
We have a choice- win, or submit.
Well said neighbor.
You want to find the killers.....just let them know that the Islamic world has 24 hours to hand over those 5 masked cowards...or a medium tactical nuke will explode over Medina.
..and if that doesn't get their attention...you can tell them the next city to go is Mecca.
No more fooling around...no more second chances...this time it's for real.

So good I feel the need to bump it up again.
This is a visceral, gut-wrenching, up close and personal murder in the name of people who want to kill you and me.
You summed up what I've been feeling since the morning of 9/11/01. Ever since I stood, helplessly, in the street and watched people plummet from 1/4 of a mile in the sky to their rather brutal deaths and then watched the North Tower of the WTC collapse, knowing full well that people were dying with each downward movement, I know that feeling.
What you've written here needs to be widely distributed; it's that important.
We have to be cool now. This is no time to be getting angry because anger clouds the perceptions. But it might be mentioned that if the loonies have the right to slaughter whoever they want, then so does everybody. They ought to think about that.
"200 years from now I hope their children's children's children look back on the horror their ancestors embraced"
IF we do what we need to do to rid the world of this vermin, there will be no children 200 years from now.... Islam needs to die..period, end of story.
