If you’re not familiar with General Black Jack Pershing, run a search...he was not only a very interesting General but managed to stop terrorism dead in its tracks.
I say with all the ultimatums giving to the US over the past 3 years (actually many more) from extremist Islamic terrorists and the lack of vocal condemnation from so-called Islamic moderates and Islamic clerics, it is time we used the General Black Jack Pershing method of negotiation.
The US Military needs to take a few large KC-135 type planes and instead of filling them with fuel, fill them with pigs blood and pork grease. The planes should be aimed at a number of Islamic holy sites and Meccas. One plane should be used for each American death at the hand of any Islamic terrorist group. We don't even have to kill one person (unless they don't take heed and clear the shrine before the plane slams into it). It's about time we hit these fanatics with some of their worst fears. And the suicide bombers...if even one piece of them is found...it will be wrapped up in bacon, dropped in a 55 gal barrel of pork grease and buried for all eternity along with other nuclear waste deposited around the world. This way nobody has to die...If they kill themselves, we bury them...If they kill us, we lubricate them. It would only take one plane before they knew we meant business.
I was just about to say never post anything that says, "Must Read." Thank you, Constitution Day.
I have to be honest and say that your proposal will only make many more enemies for us and win no friends.
Glad to be of service.
The truth of this is questionable:

I don't think offending 1/6th of the worlds populace is a way to get through in life....especially facing a limited insurgency in Iraq. Doing this will only inflame those people and instead of facing an insurgency of 4-5,000, we would be facing one of 26 million....
General concensus is, this is probably not true about Pershing.
Great. Now, I'm gonna ping you to an essay I wrote, but it is entirely voluntary that you read it.
Mike, you'd think that if that 1/6th of the world population was really on our side they'd be helping to rid the world of this cancer. Maybe a threat like this would get them off the oil canned butts and help in this fight.
No one willing to risk it; MSM would be all over them. But, keeping the killers out of "paradise" could discourage suicide recruits.
50 dead yesterday ... I think this indicates some of them are getting off their "oil canned butts" and trying to help. Iraqi soldiers and police are getting killed all the time. Please don't be like John Kerry and ignore their contributions to our efforts.
Here's a link if you've missed the story:

I'll check it out tonight when I get through phone banking... right now I've got to get back to work!
Thanks in advance for the ping.

Needless to say, it is one of our most treasured family photos.
And exactly how would you react to having your religion toyed with and disregarded by someone who claims to respect all religions, races and creeds? You would fight to your death wouldnt you?
That is EXACTLY what we would be facing. Your post is showing how little of the situation you really understand and I move that the Admin Moderator remove this inflammatory thread, especially when Snopes places doubt on this article and its veracity.
