Twelve Angry Muslims (how to deal with Hezbollah)
Townhall.com ^ | 8/7/2006 | Mike S. Adams

Posted on 8/7/2006, 11:56:10 AM by Born Conservative

The other day, I was looking for a Merle Haggard CD in the local Wal-Mart. I didn’t find the CD, but I did witness a scene that speaks volumes about how Israel should handle the threat of Hezbollah in the Middle East.While I was shopping, there were these two kids, probably 12 to 14 years old, running around the store and raising hell without a hint of adult supervision. One of the boys had hair falling down on his shoulders and into his eyes. He had a cell phone jammed into his ear and could be heard uttering urban phrases like “’sup bitch” and “nigga’, please” every few seconds. I guess this was supposed to make him sound a little less like a boring suburban white boy.

Eventually, the two young punks made it over to the CD section. The long-haired kid put up his cell phone and started looking at CDs. He was standing just a few inches to the right of a man who looked like he was about 35 years old. The punk with the shorter hair stood immediately to his friend’s right and together they looked at some selections and made a few comments.

After a few moments, the kid with the long hair threw his head back, took a deep breath, and just as he let out a loud, fake sneeze, turned to his left and slobbered on the right arm of the 35 year old standing to his left. As soon as he finished his little prank, his friend - who probably put him up to it - started to laugh hysterically. The long-haired prankster just turned to the man and said “sorry, dude” and started to walk away.

But, just before he started to walk away, the 35 year old stepped in front of the long-haired prankster and initiated the following exchange:

Man: “What the (expletive) do you think you’re doing, boy.”

Punk: “What?”

Man: “I said, what the (expletive) do you think you’re doing sneezing on me, boy?”

Punk: “I didn’t sneeze on you, dude.”

Man: “You had better watch your mouth, boy. And you call me sir. One more time, Goldie Locks, what the (expletive) do you think…” (The man was shaking his finger in the boy’s face at this point in the exchange).

By the end of the last sentence, the kid was running away from the man with his friend following close behind, pointing his finger and, by then, laughing at the boy, instead of the man.

While these kids may have had little education, little parental supervision, and little hope for the future, these were not among the concerns of the man in the Wal-Mart music section. He simply wanted to go about his business in peace without being disturbed by anyone else.Hopefully by now, the reader recognizes that the man represents Israel and the two kids represent Hezbollah.

Terrorist organizations like Hezbollah have been targeting young, immature, teenage boys for years during the terrorist recruitment process. They realize that the boys they target have nothing to lose. But it is not just the economic outlook that provides them with so little incentive. They also have nothing to lose in the sense that the body responsible for controlling their behavior – the United Nations – is one they simply cannot take seriously. In fact, young males in the Middle East regard the United Nations the same way young males in America regard the juvenile justice system.

The prankster in Wal-Mart gave little thought to the formal consequences of committing his petty crime – ordinarily, it is a misdemeanor battery to intentionally spit on someone. The same could be said about the adult. He recognized that filing a petition with the local juvenile court was not the best way to handle the situation. Young punks respond to exactly two things: fear for their personal safety and public humiliation.

The boy in Wal-Mart started running only because he believed he was mere seconds away from getting his (expletive) kicked. He clearly was. And the fact that he was also ridiculed by his friend virtually ensures that he won’t be harassing the next adult he sees in Wal-Mart. My guess is that he’ll be begging his friend not to tell anyone what happened. More humiliation will be good for his inner soul.

And that is really the first thing Israel needs to know about dealing with Hezbollah. Instead of relying on the United Nations, Israel needs to rely on the simple maxim that young Islamic terrorist punks are motivated by two things: fear for their personal safety and public humiliation.

And so the plan upon invading Lebanon is simple. In fact, it involves just three steps:

1. Upon the initial invasion of Lebanon, ignore the UN generally and its call for a restrained response specifically. Israel should invade Lebanon with the intention of killing as many members of Hezbollah as possible, using torture whenever it is necessary to find them.

2. After Hezbollah is reduced to 12 living members, heed the UN call for restraint by making humiliation Israel’s top priority. Sparing the lives of the last dozen Hezbollah members – one for each of Israel’s twelve tribes - will not necessarily be an act of compassion. In fact, I would recommend that each of the twelve be subjected to mandatory sex changes to maximize deterrence through public humiliation. It’s only fair since they’ve been beheading people for years. But, unfortunately, my top Presidential campaign advisors tell me that may be going too far.

Therefore, I suppose it should be good enough to dress the last twelve – I would call them the “Dainty Dozen” – in pink thong underwear before putting them on display in cages in downtown Tel Aviv. Their cages could also be equipped with one Toy Poodle, a stack of Playgirl Magazines, and a pink bathrobe just in case it gets cold at night. Their diet would consist solely of quiche, French pastries, and peach wine coolers to help numb the pain of their embarrassment.

3. Install a UN Peacekeeping force of 12 American feminist professors. This special peacekeeping force will be comprised of feminists with PhDs in psychology (by far, our most annoying feminists) who will meet with the “Dainty Dozen” on a daily basis to ask them the crucial question: “Why do you hate us?” These feminists certainly annoy the hell out of me. Imagine how irritated the terrorists will be when they are sentenced to a lifetime of sharing their feelings with a feminist who refuses to wear a burqua.

I hope you will agree with my simple three-step plan for dealing with Hezbollah. If you agree with the plan, you can make it a reality by voting for me in 2008. If you don’t like it, just vote for Hillary. That should give them one more reason to hate us.

I recall the bar in that Sopranos episode where Tony beat the life out of a bartender who ventured a less than patriotic opinion. Sometimes the only answer to people who talk back - not in a good way - is the end of one's fist.

The story sounds fine,but if the man had struck the kid he would have faced imprisonment fines and a heavy duty lawyers fee. He should know that and the kids DO know that.

The parents of this little turd would have come down on him like an avalanche and pressed charges till hell froze over.
However sometimes one does reach their limit when faced with a situation like this and retribution is swift.

He could have called management and complained about the misdemeanor battery inside their store.

More humiliation will be good for his inner soul.

The self-esteem movement (whether for young children or wayward international communities) will be the death of us. Personally, I think humiliation is a darn good thing once in a while.

The Greeks knew the dangers of hubris. Too many people today think the world revolves around them and their petty affairs. Such people deserve a smackdown.

Oh wait, you mean that Muslims are angry? Muslims never get angry do they, they just stay angry. Actually there are two classes of angry Muslims. Those who are simmering in anger and those who are in a full eruption of anger.
AP Arab anger at their governments grow
When a typical Arab rises in the morning, he isn't fully energized to meet the day until he has said his morning prayer and has publicly demonstrated and denounced those Zionist Pigs.

Another good Sopranos analogy would be when Tony and Carmela went to dinner and the kid across from them wore his baseball hat at the table.
Perceived use and use of pure power has this effect on people. On the other hand we have seen what happens when you let terrorists attach you and you don't respond with overwhelming force.

You are right, BUT: having spent a fair amount of time over the past several years working with teenagers, I can also tell you that if they had done something like that to one of their peers, they could expect a pretty serious beatdown, which no amount of legal redress in the future would prevent from happening RIGHT THEN AND THERE! If this adult looked at all likely to back his (expletive) up with force, they would be well aware that they might not be around to profit from the lawsuit afterward. The kids know THAT, as well.

50 years ago the kid would have had his as kicked not a finger waved at him
That is because they were the days when you din't get prosecuted for doing what is right

While looking through old newspapers on microfilm I ran across this news story from 1897:

A man and his wife were walking their baby in a baby buggy in early spring. A couple of teenagers were throwing snowballs at passersby. One of the snowballs landed in the buggy, hitting the baby in the face.

The man grabbed the young toughs and beat them until bloody. The deputy arrived at the scene and refused to arrest the man. He said it was a lesson the boys needed to learn and they wouldn't be throwing snowballs at pedestrians ever again.

This article makes a good point... I don't think we (the US) have done a good job in bringing in "humiliation" into the War on Terror.

In the Cold War, the Great Communicator was great at poking fun at the Soviets. One of his favorites went something like this:

Two Russians were in an endless line waiting to get into the department store to buy the few items they were allowed to buy... Finally in frustration one says to his comrade, "I'm going to go over to the Kremlin and shoot that Gorbachev!" 12 hours later, he comes back and his friend asks, "Did you shoot him?" The guy replies "No, the line to shoot Gorbachev is as long as this one!"

That story not only got reported in the mainstream media, it also got circulated among Russians confined in the Gulag and the Poles in Solidarity -- it boosted morale and encouraged the revolutionaries.

Although the cartoon incident might make it seem that we can't poke fun at Islam, we sure ought to be pointing out what cowards these so-called terrorists are. They're happy to celebrate their martyrs, but the leaders don't seem to anxious to join the martyr brigade. The US has failed to use communication and the equivalent of Radio Free Europe to get our message to the suppressed masses in Iran and throughout the Middle East. Instead we allow Aljazera to frame the debate and the message being received in those regions. This is a real failure on the part of the W Administration... In My Humble Opinion!

There is only one way to deal with Hezbollah. Attack Iran and Syria.

No magic here.

I feel vindicated now. Last year a kid just like this was harassing the female lifeguards at our local beach. He was making life miserable for everyone out on the docks. So... I got up on the dock and sat down next to him and his girlfriend. I said, "hey, are you the homo that's been harassing people out here on the dock?" You should have seen the expression on his face.

He tried to talk back, but I steamrollered him with some more "colorful" references to his sexual preference. We went at it for about ten minutes before he finally skulked back to shore.

What else can you do?

"1. Off all the mullahs worldwide."

They seem to like rockets so much, why don't we use rockets to off them? Like, right clear off the planet? No space suits, of course. We can develop new hardware and clear up a pollution problem at the same time.

Boring suburban white boy - racist, dehumanizing stereotype. The casual injection of this phrase in a story like this is a good example of how deeply entrenched white-hating racism is. You can't separate the phrase from the media hatred that glorifies the sort of "gangsta" behavior that the author is complaining about.

Kid's lucky. I would have crushed his windpipe with one blow and laughed my ass off while he died writhing on the floor.

Islamic fascists have no fear of death. In fact they die willingly in a mania of Islamic fervor. They live in the 7th century. Similar to the fanaticism of the Japanese soldier in WWII, you win ONLY by attrition. You kill as many Muslims as fast as you can before they kill you.

Had the man been me - I would have hit the little b@st@rd - but I certainly wouldn't have done it in front of any witnesses (I might have accidentally stepped on his toe. Hard)

It would have been his word against mine - and I can look real innocent if I want to.
