June 20, 2006 - San Francisco, CA - PipeLineNews.org - Already the lefty websites are rejoicing over the brutal torture deaths of two U.S. servicemen - Pfc. Kristian Menchaca, 23, of Houston, Texas and Pfc. Thomas L. Tucker, 25, of Madras, Oregon – at the hands of Muslim terrorists.
Eager to re-brand the war as a disaster after the death of al-Zarqawi, the western media and the Democrat leadership will rise nearly as one to use the barbaric treatment of Mr. Menchaca and Tucker as nothing more than bloody rags to further inflame the discussion over the American response to Muslim terror. Of course this is exactly why the servicemen were captured and subjected to torture in the first place because the response by the media and the dhimmis on the left will advance al-Qaeda’s media strategy.
In a period of history in which the denial of a Coke to an al-Qaeda murderer in GITMO constitutes torture, how do we place today’s events in Iraq in perspective?
Well it’s pretty easy.
From the 7th century until the present the chief export from Muslim countries has been pain, suffering, torture and brutal oppression. In such a continuum it’s pretty hard to indict practices as individually barbarous because 1,300 years of such inures the senses against all but the most abominably heinous actions.
Class, let us do a partial review:
In the early 600s Muslim armies swarmed over Christian Judea and Syria.
A few years later they crushed Persia [today called Iran - the location of the Sunni/Shia split] and then proceeded to plunder Christian North Africa, including Egypt.
In the early 700s the Muslim armies proceeded across the Straights of Gibraltar to the Iberian Peninsula where Christian Spain and Portugal fell under the yoke of the crescent hordes - the sons of Mohammed.
Along the way entire populations were put to the sword, beheaded, burned, impaled and subjected to every form of physical depravity known to exist before or since.
Churches were defiled, altars urinated upon and nuns raped before being mutilated then put to ugly deaths.
Please remember that we are only talking here about a relatively brief time span of 100 years, in a gangrous play which is now well over a thousand years in duration.
So the events in Iraq today are hardly without adequate historical precedent.
This is the way Muslims wage war; these are the stakes in Iraq and the greater war on terror.
It is against such brutality that claims by the enemies of liberal democracy - the left - equating the United States with the Third Reich can properly be placed.
Whether western society has sufficient will to prevail in what surely is a clash of cultures - one of light and life, the other of darkness and death - remains very much in question.

Hey - don't forget - Islam also expanded eastward and did the same exact things to the Hindus...
Save for later read.
I would like to see the U.S. strike back ten times harder after events like this take place.
this isnt religion. this is a sick perverted cult for psychos and half men. we will never forget or forgive these acts.
god bless the soldiers and their families.
Your article fails to mention the Moose limbs at their best - A jihad against the hindus. They slaughtered close to 100 million hindus as part of Allah's war.
Yes,and just where the hell is"amnesty international,"the international red cross",etc.to protest the torture and brutality of american troops?If a few trrorists get tortured,i really don't give a sh*t.
Brains falling out.... (we're sooooo open-minded!)
The actions of the terrorists are very similar to the brutal, inhumane actions of the Japanese in WWII. The Japanese had a LONG history of brutality and NO culture of civility. Within a generation of our Victory, they became our ally. I think that the same thing can happen in the Middle East.
Then in bosnia and Kosovo in the 1990s the mussies continued their disgusting murderous islamic ways by capturing, torturing and beheading Serbian soldiers!!
When the Serbs fought back against islamic fighters from all over the world who were helping the bosnian mussies ....the MSM and the liberal west went after the VICTIMS of islamic terror, the Serbians. OH, HOW DARE YOU VICTIMS FIGHT MUSLIMS!!!
America under clinton was part of the islamic front against CHRISTIANS!! WHY????
Now, AMERICA has to face down the islamic monster or fall like Constantinople in the 15th century, in rivers of BLOOD!!!!
I think the proper term is "Amnesia International".....
What do YOU want to be???
Friends with sane Muslims.
It's all Bush's fault.
There are maybe two in the whole world... and they are scared to death of ALL the others!!
Why yes he did!! The more I find about mussies the more I LIKE old Vlad!!
The two American soldiers were tortured, and executed with their bodies brutally defiled,
and where are:
The "Human Rights" groups,
the "UN Representatives",
the Democrats,
the Muslim clerics,
the "news" reporters
who will perform a rational and humane investigation
and judicial action to hold the torturers of the U.S. servicemen to account for their offenses against the Geneva Conventions;
in a manner equal to how every "offense" by our troops is scrutinized?
Oh, sorry, I forgot we cannot take the moral supremacists in the Human Rights groups, at the UN, among the Dimorats, the media or the Muslim clerics at their word; their moral relativistic word.
Any offense they make IS moral and any action an American soldier takes is immoral, as a matter of course.
The German populace went along with the Nazis (some due to fear, some due to nationalism) in WWII. After their defeat, we were able to bring them into the civilized world. The same is true for the Japanese. The challenge of the Middle East is not to exterminate them all (it will NEVER happen), but to change their culture and bring them into the modern world. I do not believe it cannot happen.
