Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) has trained the Norwegian convert and is understood to have also selected a target, believed to be a US passenger jet, The Sunday Times quoted intelligence sources as saying.

Funny they do not say Al Qaeda plotting to kill soldiers at the hands of a muslim Army psychologist with the rank of major...

Or, Al Qaeda plotting to kill Christians and coworkers as an islamic secret service agent...

I mean, come on folkes... Let’s get on with the sheet of music here. 911 was not just a hijack...

I forgot who are we at war with, Oceania, Eurasia or Eastasia?

We’ve ALWAYS been at war with EastAsia!

Seriously though, if/when Al and the boys blow up multiple carbombs/suicide belts or drop an airliner on one of the events, is it remotely possible that Europe will react with something a little more meaningful than a strongly worded letter?

Is it too much to hope for? (Probably but hope springs eternal)

George Orwell was a true sage. A man years before his time. The details are different but his understanding of the left is perfect.

Oddly enough he was a man of the left until he went to Spain during the Spanish Revolution. He quickly determined the lies and rot that the left was and is.

Just how do you recruit an idiot who wants to die for a Pedophile leader who thinks he is a prophet?

An insane religious cult that attracts other insane idiots to join.

“is it remotely possible”

NO! They won’t make the local Muzzies mad, and will apologize for not dying in larger numbers. It will be the Jews and the Americans fault.

When I first read 1984 I was just blown away at the paralells to reality (and this was in the 90s). Today it’s THE handbook of Democrat governance.

Orwell was indeed a sage if not an actual prophet. I’m not big on his actual writing “style” but his words, reasoning and concepts are second to none.

Huxley is another. Brave New World is rapidly catching up to 84 in both direction and application. Note the story the other day about the lab kids with three genetic parents.
If there’s a Freeper left that has not read either of these books, do so now. And May I also throw in Robert Greene’s “The 48 Laws of Power”. That group of books will help make sense of the world today.

This is what we get for allowing Islam to prosper in the the West, “a Norwegian Muslim convert” wanting to blow things up, and kill people for Allah. We are still calling radical Muslims al-Qaeda. It’s all the Muslim Brotherhood, otherwise known as Muslims.

How can you expect America to wake up to the insidious danger of Islam when the cult is protected under the 1st Amendment and when government and the MSM are either in a coma or pro-islam in order to eradicate Christianity.

I don't WANT to make sense of the world today! I want the world of today to re-adopt the Constitution and the Bible as its guideposts.

Same here, but we don’t always get what we want. Understanding what we have though, will better prepare us for making what we want a reality.
