...lengthy exposés on the Western plot to destroy Islam...
...meant to justify a violent response to this plot.

Taken together, we have a self fulfilling prophecy. Must be the hot sun or the khat.

" learn how to respond to public opinion and manipulate the media."

No need to worry about manipulating OUR media. They are already on the side of the terrorists. Too bad we can't send the likes of the New York Times and USA Today (etc) into Jordan and Nigeria to live and work. Let them try to sell papers to those people whose views they actually represent. The people who run these papers would rather stay here and bite the hand that feeds them.

Well, I've been trying to wake people up, for years:

Islam, a Religion of Peace®? ( links, blogs, quips, quotes, aggravating pictures ) is located here- click the Picture, and scroll backwards:

...and the barbarians are already inside our gates.

Never, ever, forget:

Where It's 9-11 all the Time: Click the Picture:

"Where it's nine-eleven all the time
and no Sun sets, and no clocks chime
where no voice speaks and no bird trills
the Moon hangs frozen o'er the hills
The winds are still, they seem to say,
Reflect, remember, stop to pray..."

...and at our neighbour's gates, as well:

And then, there is this little problem:

We are witnessing the greatest anti-freedom, anti-individual collective in the history of mankind.

You would have to give this piece an A for defining what we face. The question becomes how does the world fight this enemy. Our allies for the most part are impotent Euros filled with their own internal cancers.
We are not the nation we were in 1940 able to bring all sides together for a common purpose, not afraid to inflict overwhelming force on an enemy.

So what is the answer?

[NaughtiusMaximus]

This would 1.) turn the Muslims against local governments allied with the U.S.; 2.) destroy the U.S. aura of invincibility, which it maintains through the media, and 3.) create sympathy for the jihadis, who would be viewed as standing up to Crusader aggression. Moreover, the invasion would bleed the U.S. economy and sap its military power, leading to social unrest at home and its ultimate withdrawal from the Middle East.

Reads like the editorial policy of the Lame Stream Leftist Media. Either that or the Liberal ...Rat platform.

Many Westerners underestimate just how sophisticated and ruthless our enemy is. Reading Naji is a start to better understand our foes' mind-set, particularly because his text has Al Qaeda's seal of approval. The manual is available at www.ctc.usma.edu/naji.asp. Without this kind of information, the American people and our lawmakers and judges will never fully understand the awful magnitude of what we face.

Thanks for an important ping...
