That magnificent action split the world into two camps: you were either with Islam and al Qaeda, or with the enemy.

That sounds about right.

Muslims should beware of the Western approach to war. The Eastern world looks at war as just another part of the negotiation process. In the Western military tradition, you fight wars with the explicit goal of completely destroying your enemy. The only thing that keeps us from wiping every muslim off the face of the earth is our own humanity. However, as the Japanese learned at the end of WWII, that only goes so far.

One of these days, I fear Muslims will go too far. They may destroy one of our cities in a nuclear blast. We, in turn, will end Islamic civilization. This "clash of civilizations" really only has one possible outcome. Hopefully, the muslim world will figure that out before they force us to do something we'll all regret.

"One of these days, I fear Muslims will go too far."

A lot of us thought that 9-11 was going too far. And the fact that 9-11 still apparently hasn't sunk in with the Democrats and much of the public, means it will probably take something worse to convince some people of the magnitude of the war we're in.

OK by me
