Hopefully Oriana is a little more proud of Italy's contribution to defeating the Sons of Allah. Her points are all right on the money and devastatingly accurate.

It is unfortunate that the work of the RATmedia in sowing discord amidst the Americans by fanning inrrational Bush hatred has been so successful. Americans are moving in the direction of Europe and losing sight of what is required and what is at stake.

If Europe had listened to the Church and not swallowed 'the pill' and used abortion as the second line of defense against children, European socialism would not need Muslims imported to work their dole society.

Substitute "America" for "Europe", and it's still true. Yet you will find people on this very forum defending contraception, sterilisation, and abortion (and even buggery) as important "human rights", necessary for "true freedom". They are, in fact, the ABCS of cultural suicide, and their widespread practice is at the heart of the ongoing destruction of botn America and Europe. I would go so far as to say that to support ABCS is to be anti-American. I would further note that it is primarily the infamously anti-American democRat Party, and the infamously anti-American news media, that most vocally support ABCS.

I like your tag line. There is also what Clinton does not consider sex. No children no future.

Fallaci carefully examines the historic and political reasons that have led Europeans to vilify their own culture

The primary reason is the multicultural hate propaganda that has been spewing out of Hollywood and U.S. universities for the last 50 years and has poisoned the entire Western world.

Radical Islam is an insane murder cult; "moderate" Islam is its Trojan Horse in the West.

[Travis McGee]

There are millions of "atheistic Christians" in Europe and the USA, who can't quite overcome their upbringing and fully believe in God, but who nonetheless understand and appreciate that Christianity allowed the development of enlightened Western civilization, and that without the underpinning of Christianity, the West is doomed.

reaching France, Poland, and Vienna!

As the Moslems were kicked out of Vienna, the Viennese celebrated by baking a sweet called "croisent"! The cresent symbol of Islam. A bit of historical info.

I think that it is time for us to REALLY do something big. I mean big! This is getting serious. The RATS don't seem to remember 9/11. Those that realize that we were attacked only think that it was those pesky Al-Qaeda folks in Afghanistan. They see no link between Al-Qaeda, Afghanistan, Iraq and radical Islamism no matter what evidence you show them. They seem to be content with selling out our country to the dying European society. They want "under God" taken out of the Pledge. They want everyone to attend an indoctrinating, secularist government schools. They want freedom from religion. They want America to be filled with Secular-Atheists. They have no problem having America depicted as an awful society.

We need to start using the left's tactics. We need to organize HUGE protests. We need to get off our a$$e$ and FIGHT! Really fight. We do have a good President, but we cannot rely on our Congress to get it right. We cannot rely on our state governments to get it right. We cannot rely on our media, the wonderful ABCNNBCBS. We cannot rely on Muslim leaders in our country or abroad to reign in these radical Islamists because they think that 9/11 was good and that we are evil. We, the people, need to stand up and tell these Traitors to shut up. We need to realize that we ARE alone in this fight. DemoAmerica will not help us. EU will not help us. ME definitely will not help us. We have the right to free speech in this country, but since when did we have to put up with what other countries say about us. Let's start by lobbing a stray cruise missle at Al-Jazerra HQ (Boortz' Idea). That may get some attention. If they want a fight, let's give them a BIG fight.

I simply cannot take this any more. I listen to Rush daily and he says that you have to laugh at what the RATS are saying. He says that you cannot get stressed about it because you will drive yourself crazy. Well, I have. I cannot sit back any more and watch others, even those within our own borders, trash our country and our President. I am too proud of this country and what we stand for. If we all finally stand up and yell, "Enough!", people will be forced to take notice. We know that we are right. We have to make our voice heard. What if we duplicate the efforts of MoveOn.org and make some Pro-Bush, Pro-America ads? Make FreeRepublic a truly household name. What do you all think? Any other ideas?

Fallaci BTT. Can she shake 'em up or what?

[Donna Lee Nardo]

Yes, Orinana is a brilliant journalist. And it makes me chuckle to think that all the leftist college professors who always praised her in the past have most likely removed her from their student reading lists!

[Donna Lee Nardo]

That is not a recent pic of Oriana. She is well into her senior citizen years and she chain smokes!

[Donna Lee Nardo]

Oriana is still brilliant and beautiful at 75. Here is a more recent pic of her but it was taken -- obviously -- before 911. She could teach the Euroweenies a thing or two for sure.

[Donna Lee Nardo]

By all accounts, she is as feisty and common sense in person as in her recent writings. She is giving the leftist establishment and the pc culture wags such a time! He he.
