There would be considerable hand wringing.

“Spy chiefs warn that one operative had said he was planning an attack on “a par with Hiroshima and Nagasaki” in an attempt to “shake the Roman throne”, a reference to the West. “

What are they going to call it, The Mother of All Firecrackers?

Just wondering.....

If it was up to me, I’d nuke Medina first then let them know that Mecca was next.

Even if there were a signed document, and a video of the signing ceremony, they'd deny it.

“some city were to vanish in a radioactive holocaust?.”

One can only hope that city would be mecca.

If they want to shake the "Roman throne" wouldn't the Vatican be more on point?

I guess that would require reasoning...

Reid and Pelosi probably think that if we just pulled out of Iraq and negotiated with Iran and Syria, then Al Qaeda and the rest of the world’s Islamoterrorist orgs would simply stop fighting

You know, Pelosi thinks all those Lslamoterrorists need is a big hug from grandma and everything will be just fine.

‘I guess that would require reasoning...’

Can’t have that, now can we?

*sigh* No. Reasoning is incompatable with blind hate.

Kelly,

You’ve stated this before and it still remains valid. But our (the west) need to be ‘really liked’ and to prove our superiority as a culture by not getting down and dirty with our enemies will be our downfall. Add a touch of liberal self-loathing and a guilt complex for all that we have and that will do it.

Hope we get an honorable mention in the dustbin of history.

Ya' know, I've been thinking about this "global war on terror" concept quite a bit lately. These b@stards are primitive tribal-culture mostly uneducated cultists who don't have a clue as to what we really could do to them if we chose. It is our restraint that encourages them to believe that they can get away with the antics they engage in.

Once in a heated debate with a Serbian nationalist, my opponent pointed out that the Serbian air force had X number (I don't recall the number he quoted) airplanes, tanks, soldiers, etc, and said they could, if they chose, wipe out all the Americans in the region. I calmly asked him if he know how many attack planes were on an US aircraft carrier. He didn't know.

When I told him there were about 90 planes on a carrier and we had 12 carriers, he shut up. I think we need to educate some of these primitive b@stards with an exercise of real power.

This country no longer has the will or the guts to win another war. We should just get out of the war business.

Actually I suspect too many in this country will choose the VT option—cooperatively allowing themselves to be slaughtered rather than be so rude as to object to such treatment.

We should start using hollow point bullets and fill the hollow space with pig fat The we need to let everyone know what we’re doing. It’s a small step but one that would get their attention.

Liberals will protect us all. Only it will be in the after life once our enemies have destroyed us all.

The time is fast approaching to turn Iran into glass.

There is no evidence of a formal relationship between Al-Qaida, a Sunni group, and the Shi’ite regime of President Mah-moud Ahmadinejad, but experts suggest that Iran’s leaders may be turning a blind eye to the terrorist organisation’s activities.

Yea, and there isn't specific evidence of a "formal" relationship between the Liberal-Commies in America and Al-Qaeda either, but I would bet good money that an informal one exists. Just look at Reid's latest comments. If those weren't meant to give the jihadists a boost in confidence, I don't know what will.
