The Stern, quite exactly illustrates how Muslims describe their brethren as a murderous gang.
The Stern states: It is true that not all Muslims are terrorists, but it is also true that all terrorists are Muslims.
So far so good for a German weekly.
I like to remind the Stern of what Rudi Giuliani said at the Republican Convention, his illustration however got avoided and blacked out by the German media.
Giuliani said that the start of terrorism goes back to the Munich Olympics when Arab terrorists attacked and killed Israeli athletes.
Germany after three months allowed the three surviving and captured terrorists to go free.
While Giuliani stopped here to proof his point of terrorism's beginning, the deeper understanding centers around: looking the other way, not retaliating. Avoidance by not having another terror attack, or not to be attacked again when bringing killers to court, or even worse, hand terrorists over to Israel is the main point
What followed: Terror in other countries, hostage taking if demands were not followed, subsequent beheading, additional terror attacks, all in an ever escalating manner, worldwide.
The modern retaliatory terror area with escalating demands based on a "you agree and cave in or else we harm you even more" basis started in Germany with the release of three murderous terrorists without even a trial.
It is the U.S. Israel, and Russia that are effective in the long term of fighting terror: decisively retaliating and even more important: preemptive striking.
Europeans at hitchhikers. No terrorism, no war, pro Palestine, Germany against possible Iranian atomic weapon sanctions as the latest one, see Spain having met all of the terrorist's demands.
Muslims will not stop, or keep a negotiated agreement.
Europeans, remember, it's infidels they're fighting, and sooner or later demands will be made. Caving in is not an option or alternative.

You are right. Germany made big faults in the past. Especailly the handling of the Munich affair was a shame for my country.

On the other hand it is absolutely wrong, to say that all terrorists are muslims. We had nazis, unabombers, RAF, Red Brigades, Mc Veigh and the black hand. Israel and Russia are not effective in dealing with their terrorists. The remains of the slaughtered of Beslan and Haifa are telling the real sad story. And - there is no proof that America will be effective with the war on terrorism either. It is a tragedy that Bin Laden was right when he said, that from now on there will be fear in American towns. It is quite probable that someday some idiots out of the afghan mountains will use C- or B-weapons on US-territory.

Don't understand me wrong. I believe in using hard force against thugs. I believe that my German gouvernment should have taken part in the coalition to free Iraq. It was a major fault of our gouvernment.

But - is it necessary to offend the whole muslim world with the excessive use of power on them? For example - is it nessecary to blow up houses of people in Palestine who had absolutely nothing to do with terrorism? Who wonders, when a 15-year old muslim boy, who is standing in front of the ruins of of his family house, will shoot on IDF-Forces in the future? I would shoot if I would be him because I have testicles. :-)

Therefrom it follows: Only the extermination of the whole muslim population in this world would bring total security for the west, because you have to deal with all those little boys who had to suffer collateral damage. As a German I can tell you, that the extermination of millions just because of their religion is not a good idea. We learned from our history in the past.

The whole west has to overthink the strategy. We have to do it togehter and the millitary action has to be combined with winning the hearts of the people. This will be the only way to keep our towns safe.
