They need to start with one of the lesser 'holy' sites to make an example of it and to show what they can and WILL DO in response to further terrorist acts. Save the big ones, Mecca and Medina, for the big finish! I'm serious, I'd would pick out one of their lesser 'shrines' and give them ample warning to clear out and then flatten it. I'd follow up by posting a complete list of other 'holy' sites that would be targets, one by one. I suspect after the third or fourth one they would get the idea.

I hope that cross gives her all the strength and comfort she needs during this horrible time. Don't let the democrats see it they will try to take it away from her.

The terrorists must be STOPPED.

They must be exterminated.

Primitive death-cultists who worship a meteorite in Mecca can do it easily and happily. Any more questions, my friend?

I know I'll get hit hard by the religious purists on this board, but the people who did this have no soul. They are evil incarnate and have sold their Divine spark to something far more sinister than we could ever imagine. They are living proof that there is indeed evil among us.

And it doesn't care who it kills.

I believe in the book of Joshua there is a model, it is known as the "Valley of Achor", it isn't terrorism....it has to do with disobedience and stealing, but one man's actions involves the whole families destiny.

If you give them warning, all of the nut case liberals types are gonna pack the shrine to the rafters to try to prevent the threat from being carried out.

OK, evolution in action - average human intelligence goes up a fraction of a point! Making yourself a human shield is not a useful survival trait.

But, from a political standpoint, it would probably be better to just send some troops to quietly clear the area out, flatten the shrine, and then post the notice that this is just the first phase. At the same time, you'd need to get effective control of Pakistan's nukes (I assume they're still the only Muslim country with nukes).

"I don't advocate "nuking" people. That is what the terrorists do. I advocate swift retaliation on legitmate targets and a powerful show of force."

I agree. We might, however, differ on the meaning of "powerful show of force." My definition would be just this side of nukes.

First, nuke Medina - then Mecca if the problems recur.

All I can say is Jihad on Islam!

The word would be crusade. I concur.

Wasn't this OPENING DAY of school in that area?
and wasn't that why there were so many parents and
small children there too?

Don't we have an OPENING DAY coming up next tuesday?

It might be worthwhile for a few parents to ignore
the ban on CCW's near schools that morning.
