Take up the Western burden
And stamp on the jihad breed
We'll bomb that cube
And pump the lube
And take just what we need!
Tancredo didn't say it was a "better response." He said it was a response that shouldn't be taken off the table.

A politican willing to use everything we got to defend America... can someone say future President.

It is a symbol, and the capital; the source of the plague. A neutron bomb in which the radiation will quickly dissipare will drice the message home.
But should we take any option or target off the table, regardless of the circumstances? Absolutely not, particularly if the mere discussion of an option or target may dissuade a fundamentalist Muslim extremist from strapping on a bomb-filled backpack, or if it might encourage "moderate" Muslims to do a better job cracking down on extremism in their ranks.
In many respects, the decision of "moderate" Muslims to acquiesce to these actions and even provide tacit justification for them is just as damaging to global safety and security as the attacks themselves. Until "mainstream" Islam can bring itself to stop rationalizing terrorist attacks and start repudiating and purging people like Ali and Hajjar from its ranks who do, this war will continue. As long as this war goes on, being "offended" should be the least of anyone's worries.
I commend Tom Tancredo for NOT coming out and offering up an apology for recent remarks he made in reference to a hypothetical question. It's been intriguing to read the hysterical rhetoric and berserk behavior on display by so many FReepers. The overall strategy and tactics are reminiscent of the personal attacks that were aimed at Tom McClintock during the 2003 recall election. As with that political event, I doubt many of Tancredo's detractors fall into the conservative catagory of American politics.
As long as there is a "Super Sunday" in which all "business" with the jihad vermin will be settled.
Tancredo didn't say bombing Mecca was a "better response." He said it was a response that shouldn't be taken off the table. Do you agree with him now that you know what he actually said?
"until "mainstream" Islam can bring itself to stop rationalizing terrorist attacks and start repudiating and purging people...."
I heard Feinstein on some news show this morning (some Republican was there too). They both are on some defense committee or something. Please don't kick me off of FR, but I was REALLY liking what Feinstein was saying. She said she hasn't heard of one major immam condemning 9/11 or the other bombings. She said she wants to see all the immams condeming the terrorist activities, issuing Fatwahs against the terrorists - she said "they need to be rooted out from the mosques, just like the Catholic church will excommunicate someone". I guess what she was saying wasn't anything new. I WAS surprised by who was saying it.
She also was nodding her head in agreement with the republican when he answered the charge that the Iraq war was causing more terrorism. He brought up the first WTC bombing, the Khobar towers, the Cole, etc., and Feinstein was nodding her approval. She added to it saying "they use the Gulf war as an excuse, poverty, etc. But those are just excuses to cover there terrorism."
Anyway - if Feinstein is talking and thinking like this, then maybe there's hope. (There is only one women named Feinstein - right?!)
You're free to think whatever you please but you just may have reached the point of becoming a thorn in the thread. Please don't take this personally; it's just an observation.
Maybe she was off her meds. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
The simplest solution is to ignore Dane's opinions. That is, unless you can't resist the sport of "...never the twain shall meet" sparring! I'm reminded of advising the victims of teasing that when they no longer react, the teaser becomes powerless. The gig is up. But if you're all having fun, hey, go to it!
That would be scary!
Heading for bed, see you tomorrow!
These threads bring out the loons. When this was posted yesterday, a few of us came on and made fun of the loons, but I doubt they knew what we were doing.
Amen.
Right, and if you bomb Mecca, you'll send the global economy into a swandive off the edge of a cliff. The United States is not the only user of Saudi oil you know.
If you bomb Mecca, instead of paying $2.50 for that gas, you may pay even more.
Nice try at historical revision, but it was the commies who were behind the Pope's assination attempt.
