Whoa, Mister Da.
That's pretty harsh treatment for these Koran-reading and believing perverts. How will they service those 72 virgins promised by the prophet Muhammed? Or perhaps he meant 72 Virgin(ians).
What a lousy excuse for a religion.

I would like to hear your (non-spoilers) reviews.
Thanks!
I think we should make it very clear to islamist states like Saudi Arabia that in the event of a major wmd attack on the U.S their country will be taken over if not completely destroyed. Give them a little incentive to deter their Jiahi idiots.
That’s jihadi idiots, not jiahi idiots.
Yup, but add Islamabad to the target set.
Mecca, Medina and Jerusalem are Islam.
If the three holy sites are eliminated, Islam is eliminated.
The problem is that what they hold dear is “expediency”. And you can’t target that with WMD.
They will whine and complain about a Koran being flushed, demand that shoes be removed before entering a sacred mosque, but when push comes to being shot at, they will all run into the nearest mosque with their shoes on and start shooting from behind a stack of korans.
I was disappointed. I didn’t think it was anywhere near as good as Nightfall or the Lion’s Game.
But I finished it.
These suggestions continue even though it is well enough known that the islamists expect the destruction of mecha and medina as part of their apocalypse.
“If targeting Qom, Medina and Mecca was our deterrence policy, then the UN would condemn us, leaders from all over the world would label us crusaders.”
There comes a time when the opinions of “world leaders” is of no importance. Yes, we would like to have their trust, their support, even their love but if we must die to gain them we need to rethink our standards. If we can’t have their love then we need to be satisfied with their respect. If that is to be denied then our very survival may depend on whether or not they fear us.
I don’t know about you, but I’d rather be respected than feared. If push comes to shove though, I’ll take fear. as long as I’m alive I can work on gaining respect.
How hard is it top understand that NO Mecca means NO islam?
All muslims MUST visit mecca once in their life or they are not muslims. What happens to the 100s of million believers who haven’t been to Mecca after it’s nuked? Its one of the 7 tenants of the faith that must be followed.
And frankly your statmement about Southern Bapists is peyond the pale.
I am about halfway through it and would say it is probably DeMille’s best so far. It poses some really interesting moral dilemmas in the form of a thriller. Demille’s comments in the preface are REALLY something, if you listen closely. If you like the characters of John Corry and Kate Mayfield from some of his other novels, you’ll like this one. They are operating pretty much alone, because, as usual, John doesn’t trust his superiors.
Good story so far, the resolution will determine my final grade.
I loved the “Lion’s Game”.
Can’t wait to get started on this one.
When you finish, let me know what you think.
Very interesting, (I’m hoping the overall premise does not include an overemphasis on a “corrupt” American government), instead of getting the bad guys.
Those stories are always fun, but tiresome now, imho.
Maybe its my mood, (lol, bloodthirsty for revenge), for all the decades of suicide bombings of the Islamic cults. But moral dilemmas in this fight are very real, especially for a great nation like the USA, who also has such enormous military power that must be used wisely.
