If they build their caliphate into established countries there are certain advantages not available when terrorists are spread out and invisible. At least you know where they are. Of course all the terrorists may not play nice with each other and live in those countries. So we could end up with more terrorist countries in addition to the dispersed invisible terrorists.

Waiting for the outhouse and its dwellers and ABCNNBCBS, Compost, Ny and La Slimes to condemn these barbaric acts.

Well the good news here is now we can take them out in a nuclear inferno and not have to be concerned about the church which was destroyed.

I hate these cockroaches.

i wrote about this in our parish newsletter. Got one complaint: "What does this havce to do with us? Why are you focusing on the situation of people so far away, foreigners?"

As if one Christian could call another Christian a foreigner! Or one Catholic, another Catholic! We are closer than we would be as U.S. co-citizens, closer even than natural family. We are members of the Body of Christ!

I am not surprised in any way, shape, or form.

Got to remember that if we do not speak out now for our brothers and sisters in the Lord Jesus Christ, what will we do when we are attacked again, and it will happen I am very concerded down the road.

Obama also without even even knowing it, is spreading the good news of the Gospel of Jesus to the rest of the world.

Actually, truth be told, yes, this IS an “Obama success”.

The left is anti-Christian. This is a “win” for them.

George W. Bush’s ill-advised invasion of Iraq is the reason Christians do not exist in Iraq any longer. Of course Obozo carried on with Bush’s policies, but Bush is the one that attacked the country. Pope JP2 pleaded with him not to attack Iraq, and told him exactly how the Christians would be treated if he did. Bush didn’t care. He believed in the leftist neocons who had been waiting years for a chance to get rid of Saddam.

“Megyn Kelly talked about this last night.”

Thanks for the heads up. Megyn and Greta seem to be more target re our real enemies than some of the male hosts on Fox News.

Kudos to both of them.
