New York Post - Letters ^ | 6/23/04

June 23, 2004 -- With the beheading of Paul Johnson, it is time to ask how many more people must die at the hands of these barbarians before we can acknowledge the politically incorrect fact that much of Islam is at war with Western civilization ("A Necessary Response to the Enemy's Savagery," Editorial, June 19)?

To continue to pretend otherwise is to pander to political correctness.

President Bush must tell the Saudi government that American special forces will operate at will throughout the kingdom.

If the Saudis don't like it, too bad.

These teams should have orders to kill all terrorists and anyone else who gets in their way.

Let's see how long the liberals will stay enraged over the latest beheading of an American before they rekindle their phony indignation over the Iraqi prisoner mistreatment.

There is no comparing Abu Ghraib with the atrocities committed by the terrorists.

Perhaps the Democrats and their friends in the media will now understand the difference.

When I suggested these things back in 2001 I was balked at.

I wouuld like to ask each and every liberal...


Would you like to have your head sawed off?

Or would you prefer to have panties put on your head???

(Liberals: you don't have to answer now, just think real hard for the next two days on this. Personally, for liberals, I would recommend the beheading... you won't miss anything at all).

Eventually it's going to happen their streets or ours
