Mr. Weiss, You're description of the enemy is perfect and deserves repeating:

"It is an all-out assault by a fanatic and loosely organized, non-uniformed amalgam of hate-mongers to whom tolerance and love are alien values. They only respect force and are a malignancy upon the land. They neither know nor respect individual or collective rights and are absent all manner of civility and discourse. They are a blind hatred fueled by some few madmen, full of envy and frustration, whose sole objective is to secure a totalitarian control over others. They hate you, because you are not one of them. By your very existence you threaten them. Why? It is because you are different. They are an enigma and like a cancerous growth must be excised, wherever they are found, or others will see in the observation that terrorism is a valid means to an end and so,...become emboldened to mimic the evil."

Thanks Jaysun. I created it out of total disgust one night having watched more of the looney-left demonizing Bush. W is no genius and has his faults, but given the choice we had between he and Kerry...there was no other option. To try and demonize him STILL with the old WMD argument is the height of folly as the entire world, based on all the collective intelligence available, DID think he possessed them. That is no longer even arguable, but the left has no more fuel for their engine so they're shovelling dung in and the stench is overwhelming.

Jacquerie, I agree with your comments completely save for this one, which I differ with somewhat.

you stated that..."As for jihadis we are the great satan because we stand between them and world islam."

I would simply state that fundamentalist Islam demonizes all heredicts/infidels as tools of Satan. We are the Great Satan, because WE are the only nation who historically stands tall in the face of totalitarian injustices. This is THE SINGULAR REASON that we MUST defeat these fanatics now, once and for all, no matter the cost. If they can back down their biggest threat, us..., then the world can't imagine what will follow. For an example of what they would do all we need do is recruit Cindy Sheehan and her staunch group of sponge-headed loonies to go to Iraq unescorted and unprotected to welcome their 'brothers and sisters' of Islam into her idea of the brave new world!
