If the Dems were in charge of Ethiopia, Murtha would advocate retreat after 17 KIA, Clinton would refuse to use the airforce, Senator Durban would call the Ethiopians Nazis if they hurt someone's feelings during an interrogation, and hordes of hippie Deanics would proclaim "Zenawi lied! People died!" and the mass-communications bureaucracy would clamor to stop the violence and give peace and diplomacy a chance with the stone-age revolutionary Islamists who took over the government by force in 2006.

Sad, but true. They're not the party of Kennedy and Truman anymore.

Islamic forces have promised to wage an Iraq-style guerrilla war if defeated.

This is why I tell the victors: NO AMNESTY! Kill them all; don't start the lousy "hearts & minds" crap. The bastards understand nothing minutely less than absolute, vicious force. Don't they want to become martyrs?

The United States had also been asked to provide air and sea surveillance to prevent suspected extremists from escaping,

What kept ya?? LOL

"If we capture them alive we will hand them over to the United States,"

That will save the bastards! The victors should ask the terrorist some questions, in their own nice way of course, and then execute them. We don't want another batch of sh!t to be protected by the enemy within the US, mainly the left and the new Out-House and Senate!

Bump. You can't win the "hearts & minds" of people who have no hearts and no brains.

I apologize to any robots, or robotic devices including automatic door-openers, who may have been offended by my remark.

"Do you ever get the feeling that the liberals (both male and female) actually have a dream of someday wearing a burka, carrying a Koran and being dominated by fanatical morons wearing explosive vests, carrying Kalashnikovs and wearing balaclavas?"

I don't. I think they just so have much world-view tied up with relativism and multicultural dogma, they can't admit to themselves that they are wrong even in the face so much evidence. And they are comfortable, for now, in their sheer numbers and PC culture.

I would have expected the Islamists to fight to the death and thereby receive their reward of martyrdom and the 72 houris, the beautiful black-eyed virgins.

Darn.

Apparently they actually think that stuff is, well, bovine food end product.

So much for Heaven being imagined as a strip club complete with dance pole.

Good for Ethiopia. I wonder if the Ark of the Covenant is still down there in Ethiopia, where it was supposed to be hidden...

They claim they have it, but they won't let non-priests see it.

It shows how this menace - militant Islam should be dealt with - and it isn't with votes in a parliment or U.N. resolutions or bogus voting among the Islamic population.

It can be dealt with this way when they come out from behind the women and children and fight like soldiers.

Sorry, they have the mentality of cockroaches.
That is, they think like survivors that run away at the first sign
of a real threat, even if it's lights being turned on to expose them.

Unfortunately, their cockroach mentality means they were MUCH smarter
than the Clinton-era Department of Justice.
(IMHO) That's how 9-11 happened.
