I don't like "nuke mecca" posts. Period, full stop. Even there, I can't argue with the need for a big can of whoop-ass. The other criticisms in that sloppy piece are not so clean-cut. I don't agree with the black-and-white condemnation of Islam nor of homosexuality per se, but in both cases, there is room for criticism of actual behavior in the present day.

I've said that on numerous threads - even on this one. Not "nuke mecca" but "nuke 'em" - type stuff. For that I apologize. It's said in (mostly) jest but it could easily be construed by a left-wing pacifist to be a call to nuclear war. It's a little over the top.

I don't think any of us take it seriously, but I'll be more careful. Besides, I've always known that cooler (and smarter) heads prevail in Bush's administration.

I dont either. Even after a terrorist attack and tempers are up. If it's wrong, and nothing is more wrong than wanting thousands of civilians killed, then dont even say it. Even in jest.
