This is how it has to change.

[AmericanMade1776]

The "arab world" must be thick between the ears, not to have questioned the actions of Muslim radical Terrorist before this.

[stboz]

"They are Arabs and Muslims who pray, fast, grow beards, demand the wearing of veils and call for the defense of Islamic causes. Therefore we must all raise our voices, disown them and oppose all these crimes."

You can turn all the clerics and other bad guys over to us for starters....and when we're finished, we'll give them to the Russians.

[DoughtyOne]

The New York times gets it wrong every single time!

These are the same middle-eastern Arabs that have celebrated non-stop every time Israel's children, mothers and grandmothers have been targeted. They party in the streets when Israel's kids get hit, they partied in the streets when we got hit.

Stop the terrorism Islamo Facists. Just stop killing the children and their parents. If you want to re-enter the human race, walk the walk.

[EagleUSA]

No, the Arab world is not thick headed. They are Islamists. That should say it all. The free-world should and must rise up and confront them without mercy, otherwise it will continue unabated.

[Hoosier-Daddy]

I think they see the storm clouds on the horizon if they don't change. There is nothing that says we HAVE to strike surgically. We can lay waste to vast areas much more easily than fighting a PC war, and it will be their children who will die, not ours.

[DoughtyOne]

They're not questioning a thing. They're shaking in their boots because they know Russia doesn't play by PC rules.

If they were questioning something, they'd question the targeting of children anywhere, even in Israel.

This is nothiing but propaganda for public consumption, and the New York Times is just slimey enough to help out gleefully for free.

I would say that the NY Times is only worth using as toilet paper, but I wouldn't want to insult toilet paper.

[dandi]

A few may finally be getting the message that their very survival is dependant upon their "policing their own" to some extent.

[JudyinCanada]

Does this tell us anything about ourselves, our societies, our culture? No....ya think? What about your evil demonic religion? What was your first clue that this might say something about your culture? Culture? What culture???!!! Oh brother. I can hardly stand it.

[silversky]

"the propagandists of Jihad succeeded in the span of a few years in distorting the image of Islam

Screw the image and take up arms against your radical clerics, cause you are gonna get fried in the same pan as they. Talking AIN'T gonna save you.

[neverdem]

From time to time, I’ll post or ping on noteworthy articles about politics, foreign and military affairs. Let me know if you want off my list.

[Paladin2]

Just remember why there are no Arabs on the Enterprise (Star Trek).

[LS]

almost all terrorists are Muslims," Abdel Rahman al-Rashed, the general manager of the widely watched Al-Arabiya satellite television station wrote in one of the most striking of these commentaries.

Duh.

[LS]

Not to mention the fact that they are looking at a potential U.S.-Russian alliance. And we know what happened to fascists the last time these two countries got together!

[Bob Eimiller]

The Murdering Muslims are scared Sh##less of the Russian Bear... the Russians don't have Kerrys, Kennedys and the rest of a 'Rat party spewing political rhetoric in an effort to reclaim power.

[tsmith130]

...distorting the pure image of Islam

Anyone have any examples of the "pure image of Islam"? Anyone?

{crickets chirping}

Yeah...me neither.

[DoughtyOne]

Make that the United States, Russia and Israel...

Suddenly the picture comes into focus hugh. I hope Bush plays this for all it's worth with Russia.

I'd develop a whole new policy with regard to foreign relations including commerce, terrorism and enhanced mutual respect to keep Russia plugged in to this reality.

I'm sure it doesn't escape many people's attention, that this is an excellent answer to China's adolescence.
