Experts cited in other FR posts tell us there are MANY terrorist cells here among us now. Who do we have to fear more---THEM or POLITICAL CORRECTNESS??

I am sure that Bush knows that it ISN'T a case of "we've got to root out a very small number of terrorists," etc.

There are 1.5 billion Islams in the world. At least 10 to 15 percent of them would obey their leaders and join a jihad agst the USA.

When we strike Osama, no matter how much evidence we have on Osama, and no matter whether there are collateral casualties, it will just incite all the other Islamics or whatever they're called. The nations like Afghanistan will attempt to exact more terror.

And within our country, it is downright frightening to think of how many "sleepers" they have here. They have been planting them here for a number of years. This, according to mideast experts.

When it comes to states who support or harbor terrorists, the ONLY way we are going to stop them is to reign so much destruction on them that they have to stop---because they either choose to live or because they are dead. If we do this, other nations will condemn us and have a hissy, and here in the USA on campuses and in Hollywood we'll face opposition that will fill the cable channels every bit as much as the attack has since Sept 11.

As for terrorists among us, political correctness will allow them to destroy us. We are going to have to look at immigrants here, and look hard. Unfair? Yes. But the choice is this or death and the end of our nation. This will not be acceptable to the "we are the world" crowd, who are more concerned that someone will have their feelings hurt than that terrorists have the opportunity to kill more people.

I am afraid it's more serious than we think---NOT because we CAN'T overcome it, but because we do not have the WILL to overcome it because it would require us to do grossly politically incorrect things. That program last night profoundly gives insight into the state of mind of the latte states and the Gore voters.

The faction within Islam that is the problem supports the United States of Islam concept. A 100 year war to dominate the world.

We need to understand that the plan is a 100 year plan. Here in the states we have trouble planning beyond the weekend these radicals are planning at an enourmous level and we need to switch our thinking not for ourselves but future generations.

The longer their plan is executed the harder it will be to stop. A complete and total solution needs to exercised with EXTREME PREJUDICE against the United States of Islam. This concept can never become reality!

Our country needs to be completely united in this cause and should be the hallmark of every citizen each day!

In addition I totally agree about PC...it has to stop as well as politics. It is a new era!

Did you see the TV program last night? I think what it represented has shaken me more and made me more concerned about this situation than anything since 9/11.

Did anyone else see Chris Matthews last night (Friday) redefining 'profiling' so it fit into taking a good hard look at potential terrorists?

He also mentioned that before anyone touches the US soil they have no first or second amendment rights, so stop them before they get into the country.

It would almost be humorous to listen to these goobers back-track if they hadn't contributed so heavily to placing us in this spot to begin with.

My parents were the WWII generation, the greatest generation. I instinctively, reflexively put any aspect of this up to the yardstick of how they handled Japan and Germany. Now THAT frightens me...

Take anything anyone says or does now and imagine it as the response to Hiroito and to Hitler. Say, after Pearl Harbor, entertainment superstars get together and say NOTHING about patriotism or war, but rather have a telethon that emphasizes their concern that someone in the USA might say something mean to a Japanese-American.

Prejudice against Arabs who live in America, whatever someone THINKS about this subject and diversity, etc.---this is NOTHING compared to the WAR we face. And these leftist idiots among us---like those who appeared last night, with only a couple of exceptions I can think of (Clint talked tough; Petty was the ONLY one who sang an appropriate song)---are too DOGMATIC to admit that we won't have to WORRY about diversity and hate if we are destroyed by Islam.

Holy cow, friend: the 2 hour program that was on EVERY network and a total of about 40 cable channels, a whiney love-in of entertainment stars sobbing, "Can't we all get along" and "give peace a chance," and featuring sad little apparently Arab girls in NY who are concerned how people will LOOK at them and what people will SAY to them.

A small adjustment: the approximate number of Muslims in the world today is one billion, including women and children. It's still a huge number.

I love Ann Coulter, but it's not realistic to think you can go in and convert all these folks to Christianity at the point of a gun.

A more likely technique is divide and conquer. The better-educated Muslims may want to consider themselves too enlightened to resort to violence. The minority Shiite Muslims don't get on very well with the Sunni Muslims. Muslims in Indonesia are said to practice a somewhat different religion from their brothers in the Mideast.

Apart from fighting a war on several fronts against the violent Muslims, we need to mount a huge propaganda effort to convince the others that the true version of Islam is peaceful, and doesn't go around murdering innocent people. I don't know if that's true or not (given that Mohammed himself wielded a sword). But for every Muslim cleric who proclaims the Jihad, we have to get some other cleric to preach the opposite way. Otherwise, we're all in big trouble, fighting against nearly a third of the inhabitants of earth.

Even if we win, it would be no fun wiping out hundreds of millions of people to do it.

>As for terrorists among us, political correctness will allow them to destroy us.

I posted a thread yesterday that links to a great article discussing how the CIA was _surprised_ when the "Islamic Revolution" won in Iran. The CIA planners who plot the politics of the world had considered religion a dead issue (domestically, and overseas). US policy in the Middle East was centered on Israel and Lebanon, but the Islamic Revolution changed everything. p>

The article (linked to here: The Coming War in the Middle East -- I posted the prologue, but the link on the thread takes you to the 51 page article) explains how the Islamic Revolution got out of control, and how the Oil Elites are attempting to "co-opt" the revolution itself by changing the US policy toward Israel. It's great stuff. Very detailed, very political, and seemingly right on the money... Mark W.

Amen brother. This cannot be said enough. We are in the spot where we are because of people like Chris Matthews and Peter Jennings and on and on.

I saw Matthews talking about profiling about a week ago, in a discussion with Forrest Sawyer. I thought Sawyer was going to faint. He was looking like, "Shouldn't we pull the plug on this and switch back to something else." Like someone was using foul language or hateful words.

I couldn't believe Matthews either. What a hypocrite. And Sawyer rightfully questioned him to the effect of, "Well Chris, how can we do this profiling you suggest against only one group, Arabs, and yet it won't apply to blacks, for example, when police are looking for a rapist or a murderer"

And Matthews had some twisted logic on why profiling could apply to TERRORISM and not to RAPE or MURDER!!! The inconsistency and hypocrisy was hilarious. Typical knee-jerk liberalism. And I emphasize the JERK.

It's still possible that a smashing, quick, complete and overwhelming military victory will spare us the necessity of becoming a police state.
That kind of victory would likely so discredit Islamic fundamentalism and validate the modern world that its adherants would no longer be welcome in their own communities.

. . . and here in the USA on campuses and in Hollywood we'll face opposition that will fill the cable channels . . .

Do not fear. If America has the good sense to do as you suggest -- and I hope to God we do -- such traitors can be arrested and hanged for aiding and abetting the enemy; i.e., for treason. An all out war against the enemy without will enable us to rid ourselves of the enemy within, for once and for all.
