Laden's Students: Sears Tower in Chicago. "This one is mine," he says.

Even Mullah Mohammed Omar, the Taliban's leader, attended the school briefly before he left in the 1980s to fight the Soviets in Afghanistan.

"They are all our inspiration," Haq says. "And soon, we'll be fighting alongside them."

Tens of thousands of students at Pakistan's 6,000 militant Muslim madrassas say they plan to go to Afghanistan to fight U.S. soldiers, attack bases in Pakistan that may host American forces, or conduct suicide bomb attacks against U.S. targets if President Bush launches military action against bin Laden and the ruling Taliban militia in Afghanistan.

Tempers then flare. Several students begin yelling at once, pointing their fingers and gesturing wildly.

May they always remain so disciplined. Special Forces are coolly watching them even now.

"We give them the knowledge, the Taliban gives them the guns," Haq says. "I, and all my students, will support the Taliban and Osama at all costs. They are the only ones implementing true Islam."

Me thinks these people are upset that we no longer use camel caravans through the mideast to get our silks from China. Muhammed made a living pillaging and raping. Me also thinks that the Quran is more of a history of his exploits, and less of devine inspiration. Prophet? Yes, if see the tragedies he has brought upon this world.

This just in from the dead martyred hijackers: Not even one virgin and hot as ..., well you can guess.

About time we all started showing more appreciation for the fairer sex.

.. Most in America don't recall, but...

1Sa 17:10 And the Philistine (Goliath) said,
I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man,
that we may fight together.

1Sa 17:43 And the Philistine said unto David, [Am] I a dog,
that thou comest to me with staves? And the
Philistine cursed David by his gods.

1Sa 17:44 And the Philistine said to David, Come to me,
and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air,
and to the beasts of the field.

1Sa 17:45 Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword,
and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts,
the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

1Sa 17:46 This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand;
and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee;
and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air,
and to the wild beasts of the earth;
that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.

1Sa 17:51 Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine,
and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him,
and cut off his head therewith.
And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled.

With Arab "friends" like these, who needs enemies? These desert scumbags didn't discover the oil reserves in their own lands or develop the technology to exploit it, the west did all of this. They have pushed us far enough to justify the occupation of this resource for our own economic, security, and military interests and that of our allies. They should consider themselves incredibly lucky that this has not already been done, since they have done nothing whatsoever to quash terrorist factions and cells within their own borders, when not actually sponsoring or funding the damned filthy murdering garbage itself.

Thank you for posting this.

The "It's not about Islam," stuff coming from W is just disinformation.

He's saying it because of all the whiny liberals who will come out after the first civilian casualties.

Of course it's about Islam.

Islam is an extremely violent religion.

The d*ckhead in the article said it best,"They are the only ones implementing true Islam."

Let's roll.

Our weapons of mass destruction can keep all these young men warm during the harsh winter .

How to seriously limit American losses ? Lighten our heavy arsenal while providing light for our enemies .

Cheese .

Does this mean we might get the opportunity to wipe out a whole generation of terrorists?

I do believe a Vietnam style war of attrition would not be the first option. My generation balked at Vietnam, claiming "we had not been attacked".

I'd say that under the present circumstances, a hundred to one kill ratio would be acceptable. And without the jungle and without resupply, we can do better.

One of the most telling lines is that these 6,000 or so are withdrawing from the Indian border with Kashmir. Oh? And how long have they been "fighting" there? Guess they aren't to successful, huh? It still belongs to that military giant, India.

This is the kind of thing that USA Today writers miss in their analysis. By jumping on the bandwagon of "6,000 Osamas," the issue is, "If we had known about one Osama or 1,000 Osamas, what would have been the result?" I don't think that Osama or anyone else will soon catch us unawares.

re. post # 12- Target number one!

Are you a liberal? A little misplaced 'moral equivalence' goes a long way.

God did indeed lead historic Israel against the Phillistines. But He surely did not instruct them (or us on a going-forward basis) to slay those who would not become Israelites (or now Christians). Subtlety of reasoning is obviously not your forte, but can you see -- oh maybe -- a small difference between the God of History and the Mohammedan fraud?
