The Muslims have a better case in Chechnya than they do in the West Bank, Kashmir or any of the other troublespots where the Islamic world rubs up against the infidels. But that said, as elsewhere, whatever the theoretical merits of the cause, it's been rotted from within by the Islamist psychosis.
I wonder if, as they killed those schoolchildren, they chanted "Allahu Akbar!" - as they did when they hacked the head of Nick Berg, and killed those 12 Nepalese workers, and blew up those Israeli diners in the Passover massacre.....

Wow...When I read Steyn, the words "The pen is mightier than the sword" rings true.
Can we grant this guy citizenship and a radio show?

NO OTHER WORD FOR IT BUT SLAUGHTER
Ignomy of Islamism!
[EXCERPT, The Australian]: When your [terrorists'] asymmetrical warfare strategy depends on gunning down schoolchildren, you're getting way more asymmetrical than you need to be. The reality is that the IRA and ETA and the ANC and any number of secessionist and nationalist movements all the way back to the American revolutionaries could have seized schoolhouses and shot all the children.
But they didn't. Because, if they had, there would have been widespread revulsion within the perpetrators' own communities. To put it at its most tactful, that doesn't seem to be an issue here.
So the particular character of this "insurgency" does not derive from the requirements of "asymmetrical warfare" but from . . . well, let's see, what was the word missing from those three analyses of the Beslan massacre? Here's a clue: half the dead "Chechen separatists" were not Chechens at all, but Arabs. And yet, tastefully tiptoeing round the subject, The New York Times couldn't bring itself to use the words Muslim or Islamist, for fear presumably of offending multicultural sensibilities.....
These Islamist Monster-Thugs need to be eliminated from the human race--ASAP!

they hate themselves and thier mohammed so much, they'd rather blow themselves and anyone near them up to reach their rivers of wine and 72 imaginary virgins instead of living here with their families,,
President Bush will help them reach their fantasyland,, God Bless America

Islam is a faith that brings comfort to a billion people around the world. It's a faith that has made brothers and sisters of every
race. It's a faith based upon love, not hate.
"All Americans must recognize that the face of terror is not the true faith -- face of Islam. Islam is a faith that brings comfort to a
billion people around the world. It's a faith that has made brothers and sisters of every race. It's a faith based upon love, not hate."
The peoples of the Islamic nations want and deserve the same freedoms and opportunities as people in every nation. And their
governments should listen to their hopes.
All of us here today understand this: We do not fight Islam, we fight against evil.
Because this great nation of many religions understands, our war is not against Islam, or against faith practiced by the Muslim
people.
The Islam that we know is a faith devoted to the worship of one God, as revealed through The Holy Quran. It teaches the value and
the importance of charity, mercy, and peace.
There are thousands of Muslims who proudly call themselves Americans, and they know what I know -- that the Muslim faith is based
upon peace and love and compassion.
The terrorists are traitors to their own faith, trying, in effect, to hijack Islam itself. The enemy of America is not our many Muslim
friends; it is not our many Arab friends.
I've made it clear, Madam President, that the war against terrorism is not a war against Muslims, nor is it a war against Arabs. It's a
war against evil people who conduct crimes against innocent people.
The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That's not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace. These terrorists don't represent
peace. They represent evil and war.
Hooper and his bros will be mostly silent and if they issue a condemnation it will be watered down with caveats...that spill over into condemnation of 'others' responsibility for what happened
Never Never in a million years will they condemn their own or police their own...
Moderate Islam is the Trojan Horse of the most virulent and purified form....from the wells of Mecca and Medina

I have studied Hitler a bit, and he was a rotten SOB, Oh : He killed women and children all right gassed them shot them bashed their little heads into light poles , but he did it in the dark he didnt have the audacity to do it right out in the open and just blow up a schoolhouse full of kids. these are the new Nazis. but instead of being nationalistic they call it religious. Instead of shouting Heil Hitler. they shout Allah Ahckbar or some such tripe.
People willing to commit suicide to kill innocents. Not may Hitlerites were willing to do that.This bunch doesnt want to conquer a world for its resources, They want to kill every one of us who isnt a Muslim.If allowed to continue this bunch will make Hitler look like a boy scout.
