Counterproductive.
Really?
muslims think that it is protected by allah (piss be upon him), and can never be destroyed...so it would basically show them that allah either does not exist, or is not powerful enough to protect his temple.
Blowing up the silly rock might do more to demoralize these maniacs than anything else we could do to them.
Or would it?
Let's say that we pulverize this thing. It's entirely possible that the muslim imams would twist it around to suggest that it was actually allah that blew up the holy meteor to send a message to the muslims that he is displeased that all of the faithful muslims are not joining the fight against the West. I don't think like a muslim, and I am thankful for that.
That said, I say we do it and see what happens. At the very least it would turn this war into a war, and not a "situation".
"At the very least it would turn this war into a war, and not a 'situation.'"
I think hope of that was lost after last Tuesday. You know, when the American Voter speaks, and it goes the way of the leftists, then it is SACRED. When the American Voter speaks and it goes the way of the Conservatives, it was cheating.
I don't think our general populace is smart enough to solve this one. I certainly know that those inside the beltway can't, no matter HOW smart the MSM says they are each and every day. *Rolleyes*
They need to get their sticky fingers OFF of this war and let the military handle it. How many times do we have to learn that particular lesson?
(Sorry. I'm a little crabby tonight...)
