Yes, the Carthaginean solution should have already been applied to Fallujah.

I like the sharks idea.

Diego Garcia is too strategically important. It's part of the Chagos Group, which is the last British Indian Ocean territory. But if they put them up on the Salomons or Peros Banhos, at the other end of the group, they probably wouldn't bother the folks at the airbase too much.

My husband is a radio amateur, he's up to date on all the little outcroppings of rock and reefs that "count" as "countries" in the DXing world. I'll ask him. Hopefully something that's awash at high tide, like Kingman Reef.

Only if we can keep them inside the crater!

"Muslims gathered uneasily for afternoon prayers Friday, murmuring about fears of a backlash."

THAT'S THE PROBLEM. THEY ARE NOT BOTHERED ABOUT THE BOMBING, BUT FEAR OF A BACKLASH.

You could be in the running for stupidest man on earth.

"Running" has been demonstrated to be a poor idea.

"They must not be able to hide behind their religious status when it's convenient. I must admit, it's an effective concept."

That's precisely why they do hide behind it and use PCism against western civilization to their advantage.

[sheik yerbouty]

Yes. it has perfect retaining walls..

Remember, loads of salt, plow widely.

My thoughts exactly. I read the first sentence and that said enough. These people ARE ALL EITHER TERRORISTS OR SYMPATHIZERS THEREOF.

[txzman]

There are alot of Christians ready to defend life and limb in a holy war. Just ask.

[SunnySide]

"These people ARE ALL EITHER TERRORISTS OR SYMPATHIZERS THEREOF"

It's been a mixture of both and fear thrown in towards the complacent undecideds for a very long time.

[houeto]

I'll start feeling some sympathy for these rag heads when they start turning in the nuts in their communities.

Have you studied their 'religion'? We don't have room in the jails to hold them all.

[houeto]

Oh, and a new Test Act for Moslems in which the abjure jihad. Those who won't take the oath should be denied government employment or benefits, including the dole! That'll clean a lot of them out double-quick!

Nope. Oaths mean nothing to them in order to protect islam.

[HighlyOpinionated]

The bishop of Hildesheim in Germany paid an imam a courtesy visit in his mosque. The imam handed the Catholic prelate a Koran, which he joyfully accepted. But when the bishop tried to present the imam with a Bible, the Muslim cleric just stared at him in horror and refused to even touch Christianity's holy book.

"The bishop was irritated because he perceived this behavior as a gross discourtesy," wrote Tibi, "but the imam had only acted according to his faith. For if an imam gives a bishop a Koran, he considers this a Da'Wa, or call to Islam."

So, in effect, the imam had technically 'converted' the bishop who then was in apostacy the minute he walked into his Church? So now, the bishop is just a terrorist target?

The West has to bow to Islam but Islam refuses to bow to the West because the Koran says so. That about sums it up.

[Paleo Conservative]

Muslims gathered uneasily for afternoon prayers Friday, murmuring about fears of a backlash.

Every story I read about the Muslim reaction is about fears of of backlash. They are never about concerned about the non-muslim people maimed and killed by these terrorist attacks.

Allah FUBAR!

Just to provide a counterpoint to this Islamo-whining:

"Blowing up a bomb in London is not jihad. If Germany or Holland or France were to attack us, we should defend our country and die for it. This is jihad. We are British Muslims. We left our homes, our parents, everything, for the future of our children. Why don't these boys go to Karachi where there are bodies lying in the gutter and people are dying of poverty. Why don't they save those people?" - Muslim man interviewed in the Independent.
