Sounds like a great guy, but I wouldn’t want to have to foot the bill for his life insurance premium.

If more muslims would follow guys like this, we wouldn’t have to kill so many of them.

You wouldn’t have to, because the guy is uninsurable.

We should be doing anything and everything to support this guy and any one like him. If the middle east is going to be reformed it will come from within.

Throughout the muslim world where terrorists are operating we should rescind all the restrictions on our intelligence agencies including assassination. Any individuals who are strong enough to speak out against the terrorists would probably be hurt by direct association with us, but we should support them financially and any organizations that might be able to form protests, just as the USSR did with the nuclear freeze movement.

Oh. I thought you meant “we” as in we individual conservatives. What we can do to help.

If you mean we as in the US government, I have to tell you, I don’t have much faith in us doing much at all.

What you’re suggesting is too much like common sense.

Governments generally don’t operate on common sense. Even our government. Even in the hands of the good guys.

Great point. At the individual level I contribute to an organization called Gospel For Asia. They are using missionaries indigenous to the region to convert muslims and hindus to Christianity. They set up churches and schools.

I'm not sure if there is much more I can do individually.

Governments generally don’t operate on common sense. Even our government. Even in the hands of the good guys.

I think it will change once we get past the 60's radicals. The problem is will people be to feminized and dependent on govt. by then to change it.

I heard Joel Rosenberg on Fox & FRiends this morning.

He has been in Iraq quite a few times. He mentioned that converts to Christianity are the highest they have even been since before Saddam came to power.

For all those Joel Rosenberg fans, his new book DEAD HEAT came out last week.

I’ve heard of this Joel Rosenberg, but I need to read some of his books, I think.

Emmett, if you really want the full impact of his books read them in order.

There is something kind of spooky about his writing.

His first book, the first page as a matter of a fact, (The Last Jihad) has a hijacked plane coming in for a kamikaze attack into an American city ..thing is it was written 9 month before 9/11. As the story unfolds, an American president is in a war against Saddam Hussein over weapons of mass destruction...that happen in the book, 5 months before the war in Iraq began.

In his second book, (The Last Days) the story opens with an attack on a US diplomatic convoy heading into Gaza, the death of Arafat, and radical Islam trying to take over the West Bank. Two weeks before it was published, a US Diplomatic convoy was attacked in Gaza..about a year after it was published Arafat died and Hamas seized control of the West Bank and Gaza.

In his third novel, The Ezekiel Option, a dictator rises to power in Russia, an Iranian leader vows to annihilate Israel, and Russia and Iran form a military alliance. On the day the novel came out Iran elected a new president that vowed to accelerate his countries nuclear program..four months after that he vowed to "wipe Israel off the map" and two months after that Russia agreed to sell $1 billion worth of fighter jets to Iran.

The fourth novel The Copper Scroll spoke of rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem, and finding the treasures of the Temple including the Arc of the Covenant. As you may know there have been numerous articles on archaeological finds from the Temple as well as talk of Rebuilding the Temple.

His newest novel Dead Heat just came out, and to be honest I;m not sure I want to know what this one is going to be like.

A public example like this is worth millions of “silent moderates”.

Gospel for Asia. Thanks. I’m going to give them a look-see.

House Resolution 64, authored by Kirk and co-sponsored by Rep. Nita Lowey (D-NY) calls on the Bangladeshis to drop all charges against Shoaib and end all harassment of him and his family. It passed last year by an overwhelmingly 409-1 margin.

So, who cast the lone vote against protecting this courageous man?  Why, that perpetual nutjob Ron Paul.
