This leads to an annoying quandry, who do I root against?

When I read tea leaves, I expect that the real counter-jihad won't begin until there is a U.S.-Chicom alliance to take out Islamicism by the roots.

To the jihadists, Capitalist people and Communist people are the two tribes of Gog and Magog, which they believe the Mahdi will wipe off the face of the earth. See my FR homepage for more info.

Why they overthrew the Mughal Empire, they did, removing India from Dar al Islam! That is an unforgivable slight to Islam and to Allah. All “good” Muslims must fight the Indians until India submits to Islam by either converting, or paying the jizya.

They've been attacking India for 1400 years, and they just now get around to declaring war?



King Shivaji turned the barbarians back on the Eastern front...

...While Charles Martel turned them back on the Western front:



...and the millenia and a half long battle of all civilized people against the Mohammedans continues.

Why? Were the Indians bombing the Mid-East for the last ten years also?

“They have declared war on all civilized countries that aren’t completely under the control of their death cult.”

There are no civilized countries under the control of their death cult.

If for some reason, Muslims had to be expelled from Fairbanks, Alaska, Fairbanks would become the 4th holiest city in all of Islam.

No, those that didn’t move didn’t die; they set forth to become baby factories.

Agreed and they also seem to know how to extract information to gain intelligence without the “PR” issues :)

One can only hope that India will someday change the name of the Hindu Kush to the Islam Kush.

Seems to me that this group is poking a mean bear with a stick.

Bad karma?

Did you ever notice how they all look alike?

Same two-eyed bag on their heads...same flack jacket...same weapon beside 'em. Maybe THIS is the "clone war."

All their wars are “holy wars”. A lot of ink could be saved if this were taken into account by journalists.
