Good thing we’re not Hittites or Jebusites.

This says it all... At the siege of Vienna in 1683 Islam seemed poised to overrun Christian Europe.
We are in a new phase of a very old war.

My concern that with the falling of Tunisia, Egypt, and now the oil rich Libya;

Those three newly independent countries could form into one Islamist country. Egypt, without oil, would love to become part of Libya, Libya would love to control the Suez canal, and gain the tourism, and fertile Nile. I'm not sure what Tunisia brings to the party, but more population and land. A new African "superpower" all controlled by Islam scum.

Right now it is all working in our favor. Why you may ask, here is the answer:

Muslims are killing Muslims. See we win.

I am not sure what is going on but it is clear that it is well organized.

That does scare me a bit.

Not to detract from the message, but facts are important when recounting history.

There were several sailors and soldiers who died along with the Marines in Beirut in 1983.

Additionally, the bombing of Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia in 1996 claimed 19 U.S. Airmen, not Marines.

Having made the ultimate sacrifice, may they all Rest in Peace.
