I can’t really believe the press really thinks this is about French satire ‘zine. Muslims don’t need excuses, this is what they like to do.

To this day, with the silent approval of Obama, Muslims keep slaughtering Christians and burning their churches. Is a long tradition of Obama’s “religion of peace”. Remember the horrendous massacres of Otranto y Famagusta in the 15th and 16th centuries and the genocide of Armenians on the 20th century.

Muslims only understand one thing. Whenever a Christian is killed or a church is burned, there should be massive retaliation each and every time.

Plainly, Christians in Africa are clearly to blame for the actions of French secularists whose publication also mocks Christianity. I think there’s some sequence of fatwas beginning with a condemnation of all Franks issued sometime in the 10th century that justifies this position.

"Retaliation"? --- it depends on what you mean by that word, and against whom.

Retaliation against noncombatants is against the ethic taught us by Jesus Christ. You can't honor Him by dishonoring Him.

On the other hand, it would be an act of civic virtue to hunt down these church-burning, murdering jihadi-aggressors and stop them dead. They should meet end which is swift, severe and certain.

Niger is 80% Muslim. This is the country where Saddam Hussein went to buy yellow cake in his quest for building an atomic bomb.

Not that a Muslim country might be sympathetic to a Muslim ruler getting nuclear weapons. After all, Valerie Plame's husband went there and assured us there was nothing to see there.

Muslims make no sense.

They say its a crime punishable by death to mock a profit of God.

Thus the rage when people mock Muhammad.

BUT... they also say Jesus was a profit (it's just that his teachings were distorted after he was killed)

so... If Jesus is a profit.... (by the muslims own admission) and since it's a crime punishable by death to mock a profit...

Then the Muslim should be killing people who mock Christ!

James Taylor might not be forceful enough. We may need Jackson Browne, if we really want to send a message.
