PC is killing us!!!
I agree with the importance of your list (it kinda reminds me of my tag line, only your list is more complete). I have to reiterate your list for any lurkers who have not thought through the significance and consequences of what CONNECTS all these hideous events:
London-Islamic terror
Bali-Islamic terror
NYC-Islamic terror
Madrid-Islamic terror
French Oil Tanker-Islamic terror
Istanbul-Islamic terror
Casablanca-Islamic terror
Thwarted Ricin Water attack, England-Islamic terror.
Beslan(One of the most abominable-children were specifically targeted)-Islamic terror
Moscow Theatre-Islamic terror
Iraq(they are killing their own daily in the name of Allah)-Islamic terror
Any number of cities and towns in Israel-Islamic terror
Im convinced Egyptair 990 was -Islamic terror
Jose Padilla didnt come here at the behest of the IRA, ETA, Action Direct, or AIM-Islamic terror.
I purposely left out the pre 9-11 attacks, because FR is pretty much the only place that refers to them. Oh, I know the anniverseries are mentioned, but never the common denominator. TWA 847, Achille Lauro, Pan Am 103, Beruit Embassy (which occurred a year after the barracks attack killing the Marines and a number of French Troops stationed at the airport), are just events in a text book to most. I could one and on, but you get the picture. The common denominator is the same in all the events listed. To deny it is foolish. The unwillingness to finger Islam in Madrid, led in part to the most shameful capitulation in Continental European history. Spain, certainly no stranger to terror, enabled it even more by her vote. The Islamists still thinks Iberia belongs to them! yet they try to PC their way out.. Vichy means nothing to me now, when I think of cowardice in the name of terror or danger, I think of Spain..
