"I understand your feelings, but there are many decent Muslims who oppose these vile acts. Let's not be lowered to the level of our enemies ( which is one of the goals of terror tactics)."

"Decent Muslims" there was also decent Nazis, but we still "lowered" ourselves to their level and went to war. Don't forget that these Animals are being brainwashed and conditioned in the same places of worship as your "decent Muslims".

Take out Mecca and Medina, now.

That's the only thing that will get their attention. To wit, Libya and Khadafi.

After their tactics worked so splendidly in Spain, one is only surprised that this has taken them so long. The question now is whether the Brits will pull the "chicken switch" or stay the course. I hope it strengthens their resolve.

Just what every Western country needs are more Muslims. /sarcasm

I was winding down last night when this happened. I have finally slept a couple of hours.

PM Blair is not a man to mess with.
God bless our staunchest ally.

Here come the usual bunch of armchair cowboys and sports-bar patriots with the usual reactions:

1. Bomb Mecca

2. One bus, one city

3. Declare war on Islam ( what about the 5 million US citizens that are Muslims?)

While you are indulging your emotions with these daydreams, take some time to hear what a real Commander-in-chief, whose nation has contributed real valor to the War on Terror has to say. Here is an excerpt from Tony Blair's statement on the London bombings:

"We know that these people act in the name of Islam, but we also know that the vast and overwhelming majority of Muslims - here and abroad - are decent and law abiding people who abhor this act of terrorism every bit as much as we do.

"It is through terrorism that the people who have committed this terrible act express their values, and it is right at this moment that we demonstrate ours.

I never said any of these things, and I'm not about to be pushed by your PC police into a touchy-feely mood. These people have and follow a religious document that calls us infidels, and if we don't convert, we are no different then animals. And if you haven't been paying attention, we are being kill just as your good book instructs.

No, you didn't say those things specifically, but you were in the midst of a group of posters with similar sentiments, and all three of those comments were made. If you don't like being characterized by those statements, pray take more care to distinguish your own ideas from them.

There is a word for waging war on a group of people solely on the basis of their religious identification - genocide. I am glad to hear you do not endorse that approach by literal name, but it is hard to see how, in substantive fact, " getting serious" about waging war on people who accept the Koran could in reality be anything else.

My wife mentioned that today and said she felt sorry for that beleagured mom now that the poor girl will be yesterday's news.

I bet Greta has already left Orangestaad.

I tell ya.

I really wince when I see draped muslim women following their masters around.

It's worse when the woman is obviously some very foolish American convert.

I despise it.

The only muslims I care for in the least are apostate.

We will never defeat them through PC rhetoric...never....they view that as weakness...lip service.

I hope Britain rallys. I hope London's Mayor's prior praise for Muslim extremists is his undoing. PC bastard that he is.

Some call it survival, personally I think the destruction
of Medina would be a start, a warning if you will.

An instructive lesson, we have the power, and we will use it
on that which declares war on us, continue and Mecca is
on the way to destruction, no chance make your time.

You see, the terrorist Islamic fanatics, have no problem
with group guilt or they would target our leaders.
If enough Muslims are punished they WILL deal with the guilty.

Now you can bleat about "rational behavour" etc, but we
are dealing with rabid dogs AND THEIR OWNERS!

We can only hope.

However, from the MSM and America haters in general perspective I fear we will have to endure much much more till the enemy within is silenced.
