Awesome article, thanks for posting.

Best Regards

Had bin Laden issued a fatwa against Beijing and slammed an airliner into a skyscraper in Shanghai, there is no telling what a nuclear China might have done

I thought the same thing when the Chechen Muslims murdered the Russian school children. Russia has not yet responded. The Islamofacists are in over their heads ... that fact needs to be demonstrated to them.

Oh really, my two younger brothers (12 and six respectively) play cowboys and ragheads... but we have a huge bosnian problem here too, so they see it daily.

[Tolik]

Thanks for the link. Very interesting. Did you read the whole book?

We may be idiots but the press controls the story through the media. In WWII FDR could count on the press not to destroy the moral of the country. Now they give pulitzers to the people in the press to do so. That is why we are here at free republic to destroy the old media so we do not need their interpretation of what they believe we should know.

[Valin]

Yes. Very good! I've been push it lately.

First cogent article I've seen that disassociates Islamic murder from the political policies of the victim countries. In short, Islam is an insane murder cult.

Since this is likely a 20 to 50 year war, we may well see mass deportations, or mass forced conversions. If not mass conversion, then the denial of religious freedom and the closing of the mosques.

Islam needs reform, not genocide. Some will undoubtedly die, but killing billions for the insanity of thousands is wrong.

[Sam Cree]

IMO, the constant whining, criticism and references to Vietnam are very encouraging to the terrorists. It's a big reason why they're still resisting in Iraq. Also, IMO, the left and particularly the Democrats, are well aware of this, that's a big reason why they do it.

[liberty2004]

Some will undoubtedly die

Some will die? I think you underestimate the battle that lies ahead. Before this cult is eliminated "large numbers" will die, not some. The time will come when this cult will be outlawed in many nations. The Mosques will need to be leveled. Anyone who resists that action should be dealt with deadly force. The time will come when the clash will quite violent and quite widespread. Islam is a murderous cult and its followers want to kill those who don't convert. The Warrior class in the West will be the last line of defense. When the time comes they will show no mercy it Islam's followers - and right so. The followers of Islam will bring this violence upon themselves.

Hmmm, wonder why #30 was pulled. The good thing about pulling nasty comments is that it short circuits the flame wars, but it does leave you wondering what was said.

[Countyline]

I do so want to agree with you ...
"That's 'cause we ain't played cowboys and Muslims yet. But the times a coming'."

I know we can; but the government has no intention to stop what it is doing and has been doing for years ... which is invite them in to this country and bend over backward to accommodate them.

Our government is being filled, especially the bureaucracy by many Muslims in responsible positions within our government offices themselves. Kinda like the big cities now have black mayors (Houston)Las Angeles (Hispanic), (Washington DC) etc., when they are in the majority they elect who they want. Rightly so under our Republic. They are riddling us within and we ignore it.


Talk about moles and sleepers ... we have them. We are accepting all this far too long already.

Still there are no petitions, constitutional amendments circulating in the pipeline, no organizations with a voice standing up and challenging all the dangerous 'pc' agendas going on all around us. It must start at the local level probably. We are too content, lazy and satisfied to take a stand. We have done nothing so long it may already be too late.

We have got to hold on to our constitution and our good sense to keep our nation.

Perhaps a future generation will arise after it is remembered what has been lost.

[Countyline]

Thank you for posting this article. It is 'right on'.

"The liberals still haven't made the link between attacks in Israel and those now occuring in the rest of the world. They dislike the Jews so much that it's easy to always blame the victim.

They dislike the Jews and yet the Jews vote for them 2 to 1. Makes no sense to me.

[timsbella]

Boggles my mind too. Two votes to the right in my house and we're raising two more.

Hi Schwaeky

Thanks for the reply. I read your home page and if I may. Good on ya for trying to get into government, we can always use a few more constitutionalists in public service. However, be aware that when you run for office, folks will be searching through this forum to see what you may have written in the past.

Nothing wrong with what you posted, just wanted to remind you to CYA when you post or it may come back to haunt you.

Best regards and good luck in your future endeavors.

Hi Countyline

I pray that I am wrong, but I don't think we'll have to worry about any of that if a London or Madrid type of attack were to occur here.

If, God forbid, that were to happen here, all bets are off. I believe most police agencies would be hard at work protecting Muslims and those who appear Muslim from being torn apart by mobs.

We Americans are firm believers in the old saying of, "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me."
