PING


"One reason for the neglect of works in this genre is that they are written in Arabic and they are often quite lengthy. Moreover, they are much more difficult to translate than the usual diatribes by Bin Ladin and other prominent jihadi leaders. Unlike the latter, which are meant for popular consumption, jihadi strategic texts require translators to have a familiarity with Western strategic studies (from which they draw heavily), medieval Islamic history and theology, and contemporary developments in the jihadi movement. The reward for overcoming these obstacles is immeasurable—these works are brilliant (if diabolical) studies of global insurgency written by its most intellectually-gifted participants. While it is still an open question as to whether these texts guide the actions of foot soldiers, they are certainly read by the jihadi intelligentsia and they remain the best source for understanding the nature of the jihadi movement."

Good gravy, the damn thing is 268 pages! I guess when you're sitting in a cave brushing the flies from your nostrils all day you don't really have much else to do than write diatribes spanning hundreds of pages.

(sigh) But I have to read it anyway I reckon. Thanks for the link.

Thanks, It looks like it is going to be difficult reading.

There seems to be a lot of superfulous veribiage.

Oh, and I love the title: "Management of Savagery"

Savages, that's what they are alright.

Clearly they understand the strategic value (to them) of a Ted Kennedy or a Hillary Clinton or a John Kerry or a John Murtha or the New York Times undermining the US war effort and resolve from within.

Let me summarize. The muzzies have to be given victory because they most certainly can't take it.

You're not necessarily paranoid if you believe that there are millions of people out there that would like to slit your throat just because you're an American bump!

Not going to read this now. It might be mentoned that they might be successful since they have, if nothing else, a strong morality. Over here we have moral relativism, which is no morality at all or the absence of morality. We have existentialism, which is kind of like being an idiot child in a dark woods full of wolves and bears.

Thanks much.

Printing off the 25 page one.

Anyway we could uhhhh . . . force feed such to . . . uhhhh . . . traitorous liberals in the US SENATE including Shrillery? Both ends would be OK with me.

Or, maybe we could wall paper their houses? Cars? Stuff their cars full of it?

Encase them in paper mache made of it?

Sigh.

More seriously . . . seems to me billboards of this on key freeways of the nation . . . excerpts . . . would do a lot to raise patriotism and get some survival anger wound up to more appropriate levels.
