Father of 9/11 hijacker warns of 50-year war
The father of one of the September 11 hijackers said today he had no sorrow for what had happened in London and claimed more terrorist attacks would follow.
Egyptian Mohamed el-Amir, whose son Mohamed Atta commandeered the first plane that crashed into the World Trade Centre in New York, said there was a double standard in the way the world viewed the victims in London and victims in the Islamic world.
El-Amir said the attacks in the US and the July 7 attacks in Britain were the beginning of what would be a 50-year religious war, in which there would be many more fighters like his son.
Speaking to a CNN producer in his apartment in the upper-middle-class Cairo suburb of Giza, he declared that terror cells around the world were a "nuclear bomb that has now been activated and is ticking".
Cursing in Arabic, el-Amir also denounced Arab leaders and Muslims who condemned the London attacks as being traitors and non-Muslims.
He passionately vowed that he would do anything within his power to encourage more attacks.
It's all the fault of them jooooows.
Sorry to burst your collective bubbles but there has been only one war with Islam and different campeigns. It started when Mad Mo divided the world between Der ul Islam and Der ul Harb (house of war) and all none Islamic nations were under constant Jihad, thus this war has lasted for 1300+ years and will last as long as there is Islam to interpret Mad Mo's preachings.
I have always been a believer in alternative sources of energy.
Yes, they are not cost-effective in their current form...but we can make them cost-effective if we chose to.
A Manhattan Project-style effort would make many Freepers on here cringe. It would require the increased involvement of govt and govt spending. But I don't see us as having much choice.
I'll be the first to admit that developing alternative sources of energy won't cure our problems, environmentally and geo-politically. But it's a reasonable start.
He was the nutbag who spit on the ground and said "America is under my shoe!" when first asked about 9/11.
Grease the slime.
I'm with you all the way.
Let's toast Scottie with a glass of something...green!
I have no problem with that.
Islam is the religion of death and mayhem!
Sign me up for the barely-hidden genocidal. I haven't seen any other solution proposed that has an icecube's chance in Hell of succeeding.
I learned that as long as it is a little hidden you don't get banned here at FR. My guess is that is may loosen up a bit in the next few years.
Personally I think we need to focus only on Sunni men. The saying that not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims could easily be modified into "not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Sunni Muslims".
Although the majority of Muslims are Sunnis and the Shiites in Iran pose a different set of problems, ultimately the death cult is a Sunni issue. We should concentrate our efforts on them and try to split the Shiites so as to reduce sympathy our enemies' current and potential allies.
Nobody is saying "kill all Arabs". People are saying "kill all Muslims". What's the difference? The difference is that being an Arab doesn't mean that a person wants you dead and is willing to do anything to achieve that; being a Muslim does. The other proper way to look at Islam is to see it as the modern version of national socialism, a threat to subjugate all of humanity under an inhuman creed.
Amen to that.
Ahead warp factor 8.
Beam me up, God.
Rest in peace, James "Scotty" Doohan.

Yeah, yeah, yeah...and Hitler (many a Jew-hating Muslim's hero) promised a thousand-year Reich.
Hitler learned his lesson...in spades. Now it's time the terrorist imams did as well.
My favorite scene of all time.
"What is it?"
"It is--" (sniff)
"It is--" (longer sniff...looks at bottle)
"It is green."
Scotty gives a "what the hell" shrug.
*raising mug* Here's to ya, lad.
How much does a hit cost in the Middle-East?
El-Amir would be well-served to closely examine the experiences of France, at least in regard to his lust for a 50 year war.
Prior to the Great War of 1914-1918, France had a Napoleonic warrior culture. It was macho. Sexist. Right wing. Nationalist. But that was then.
In those 4 years of WW1, France suffered 76% casualties. The effect was more than just short term. What remained of France were those who disdained war, disdained fighting, weren't macho.
Today, France campaigns to eliminate its own sovereignty (e.g. the EU), after already surrendering its own currency, the Franc, to the Euro. France's culture today in 2005 would be disdained by the France of 1905.
Essentially, France has experienced Natural Selection. Their warriors were killed off, broadly speaking.
Should the radical Islamic world subject itself to a similar war, it will emerge changed...precisely contrary to its stated goals today. Their warriors will be killed. What remains will be those who disdain violence and terrorism.
In short, such a global war will be good for everyone except the very idiots who are demanding it. It is their ilk who will be killed off. They will make the rest of the world more militaristic; they will make their own culture, eventually, through long-term natural selection, opposed to violence and terrorism.
This is yet another reason why our honeypots for terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan are not only good ideas, but that shouldn't be ended too early. Long term change can come from forcing Natural Selection into large parts of the world.
"a 50-year religious war..."
...that's ALL?

we've been at war since the inception of islam in the 7th c.
