Can Islamic-fascist terrorism bring an end to American liberty? Can it conquer Christianity, the largest practiced religion in the world? And what of the other major religions of the world? The sane humanity breathing on this planet would respond, No way! But then there are the radical Islamic morons who have a nihilistic ideology that supports their barbaric tactics of terrorism, and so they continue their idiotic Jihad. Apparently, the morons think they can dominate the world! And so the senseless killing continues.
While the sane humanity of the world respects freedom to worship without oppression and discrimination, factional followers of Islam just dont seem to get it. Instead, they have adopted a religion of death and destruction to spread their philosophy of faith in their God. The Koran commands its followers to fight and slay the Pagans wherever you find them. Loyal Jihadists have found such Pagans in New York, Madrid, and London.
But the insane murdering doesnt stop with just Pagans and Infidels. On July 13, 2005, a radical Islamic moron killed himself and took with him 24 Iraqi children. To thwart the adoption of liberty in Iraq the Islamic terrorists are willing to murder innocent Muslim children who just happen to believe in Islam. Suicide is not an acceptable wont of the Islam faith. But dying in battle is revered and glorified by radical Islamic morons.
How do you fight such absurdity and vileness? While they cannot defeat our military with our arsenal of smart bombs, we remain stymied by their seemingly never-ending arsenal of volunteers who believe in martyrdom. Whats more effective in this religious war we are fighting, smart bombs or dumb bombers?
Ridding the planet Earth of every breathing radical Islamic moron may be desirable, but not likely doable, despite our vast superior military advantage. Ostensibly, this struggle has all the marks of a religious war, a war that can only be won when one ideology prevails over another. Interestingly, nobody refers to it as a religious war. Yet, if the morons within the Muslim religion would just agree to accept the dogma of other major religions of the world; that is, to be tolerant of other peoples religious beliefs what a wonderful world it would be! Clearly, that is not what Muslims are willing to do.
Somehow, moderate Muslims need to convince their moronic radical brethren that the planet Earth is large enough to accommodate more than one major religion. One must remember that the old testament of the Bible advocated Life shall go for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot. This passage was contradicted in the new testament with Turn the other cheek. The point is, there is room for tolerance in every religion.
Isnt it obvious that the war on terror needs to be declared by the Muslim moderates? Talk about a silent majority! The moderate clerics need step up and make the same edict stated by President Bush after 9/11/2001. During a news conference just two months after 9/11, President Bush called upon coalition partners to back up their support with action. He said, You are either with us or against us .there is no room for neutrality. Moderate Muslim clerics need to essentially say the same thing to their radical brethren. Otherwise, the global war against terrorism will likely go on for a long, long time.
Muslims worldwide are relatively safe as long as war on terror remains a military war. But, if the Sleeping Giant is hit again as severely or even more so than 9/11, the war may just escalate into a religious war. The moderate Muslims will then wish they had put forth the effort within their own religion to dissuade radical behavior, for they shall not relish the battle cry, Onward Christian Soldiers.

When it comes to dealing with muslims, I tell people who disagree with Bush et al that, "we are killing a few thousand muslims today, in order to avoid killing millions of them tomorrow"
"You are either with us or against us
.there is no room for neutrality. "
- There is also no such thing as "moderate muslims".
Great post, CHARLITE!
But regarding the above quote, there's no shortage of FR islamo-flackers who will take exception to it. Just watch...
Good point!
Good post! Big bump!
One more 9/11 type terrorist attack in America and every one of these Muslim swinging dicks and his family will have to pack up their Koran and baggage and go back to whatever hellhole they originated from. And if the ACLU or anybody else doesn't like it, they can pack up and get the hell out and go with 'em!
Our ancestors, for the last 200 friggin' years, didn't lay their lives on the line to make a better place for their families just so a bunch of camel jockeys could come here, terrorize our women and children and make hamburger out of our families.
Point, Game, Set, Match!

Some have started to call the Muslims who believe Allah wants them to kill in this holy war "ideologists" instead of "religionists" or persons who are following an ideology rather than true Islam. This is what I call verbal engineering - an attempt to label something dishonestly so that it can be dealt with as something other than what it is. Liberals do not want to exclude any 'religion' from being practiced here or anywhere but they are in favor of restricting the practice of what they call 'ideologies' such as racism, fascism, etc. But the problem with doing this is that it won't be an acceptable definition for nearly all Muslims. They won't like calling their belief in allah an ideology even if the persons who are so called are believers in this so called holy war.
Those who truly believe their god will grant them a richer afterlife if they die for this god in a holy war agains this god's enemies - must continually invent enemies of this god so they can die for him in a holy war. The only certain and sure path to 'salvation' for a muslim is to die in a holy war. Otherwise he can't be sure he is 'saved' and hence this religion is always going to be militant.
They become virgins again perpetually, according to Islam.
I agree, I heard a local talk show host (Baltimore area) say that we should begin to consider a new approach to terrorism.
When a terrorist is caught that has killed Americans, the Black Ops go find the terrorists family and kill them all. All of them, the women, the children, the animals.
Please don't tell us about it ... just go do it ...
AMEN....AMEN....AMEN.
If they are dumb enough to believe them, I have a bridge I'll sell them.

If they exist, which I doubt.
Great post, kelly!
If someone isn't bright enough to NOT strap on a bomb and go blow themselves and innocents up for the "greater glory of Alla"; I don't believe they are bright engough to think the virin thing all the way though...
Awesome observation! Makes the whole situation crystal clear. Hope you don't mind if I use it.
Best Regards
