Thank goodness nobody was seriously hurt. But this MUST serve as an eye-opener.

Whether or not this guy was genuine al-Qaeda remains to be seen. However, this was a failed terrorist attack over U.S. soil, performed in the name of Islam, on Christmas day!

So the following questions remain:

Why have we not been re-assured by the Commander-In-Chief that the situation is under control, and EVERY effort is being made to protect Americans against future attacks?

If the suspect is indeed a Nigerian national, and attempted this attack in the name of his faith, will he be tried as an enemy combatant, or will he simply be arraigned in a Detroit courtroom on Monday morning for illegal possession of fireworks?

Will the "Mainstream Media" ever admit that we ARE still at war with an organized foriegn (and domestic) entity committed to the destruction of America? Simply refusing to acknowledge the War on Terror doesn't mean the war doesn't exist.

The War on Terror will not be over until all the terrorists are "shovel ready".

We forgot. That sums it up quite well.

Genius.

An eye-opener? That's not possible. The problem is that our political class is dominated by Globalists for whom multiculturalism is a core tenet. In ultra-short form, Islam is not compatible with a free society; a simple truth that stands in stark contradiction to the tenet of multiculturalism, the idea that all cultures, including Islamic based cultures, are equally good.

To acknowledge this most simple truth, our political class would, in effect, be admitting that its world view is profoundly flawed. It cannot go their; their eyes cannot be opened. We are dealing with a kind of religion, it's called Globalism.
