Besides being another tiresome isolationist, who is Diana West? I mean, what makes her special?

Thank you. There seem to be only three of us here who see what a muddled mind the author has. I say she’s a phony with a hidden agenda.

Ms. West is no isolationist. She believes in fighting Islamists, attacking Iran. She, unlike the warmed over liberal called neocons and their haters, the paleocons, understands the issue is Islam. We fight a few terrorists oversees and allow millions of their co-religionists to immigrate. That is suicide.

How many times are you going to rip on someone who presents a coherent argument that doesn’t agree with your brand of dogma?

We must insist that Christians and Jews are treated fairly and protected (as we treat Muzzies here) in Muslim countries or we will begin deporting all muzzie immigrants from those countries.

Insist that they fly by flapping their arms, too.

It's just as possible.

Remember, Mohammedans condemn the Holocaust...because it didn't go far enough.

There is no co-existance. There is no detente. There is no do-unto-others with these humanoid monstrosities.

There is kill, or be killed. No middle ground.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

And she also wants to stop the infiltration by Islam into the West.

She writes for a conservative newspaper that has a good op-ed page. That’s why you don’t hear much about her

This was on the op-ed page of our local paper in October. Something to think about. Outlawing Islam in this country is certainly a great start toward ANY solution.

She is right that we need to purge our country of Islamists and disallow the immigration or conversion of any more. That should be easy enough, we just need to re-aquire a pro-American govt and then ignore the whining of the left as we present the option to Muslims to leave or be pushed into the sea.

In the meantime, continue to pound the crap out of them in the middle east until they leave us alone. When the Muslims feel froggy enough to start up again, go pound the crap out of them again.

The key to victory is here in the U.S. where we must maintain a conservative America.

This lady is crazy.
She is the “Reed Smoot” of the War on Terror.
We are not in retreat. As Ann Coulter has said, or object is to “drain the swamps” in the Middle East.

Iraq was chosen first because of its geographically strategic position. It is in the middle of everything. Now we have a stronghold to work from. Iran will “fall” (or “rise”) from Mullah control, because the people of Iran can see an option and choose it.

Freidman is right about the world getting flatter and flatter. Notice that you are reading this post on the Internet like anyone else on the face of the earth can do. It is precisely because of our heightened interface with each other that conflicts arise. However, because of technology, we will continue to interface more and more, not less and less.

We should have done, or should do, to Afghanistan and Iran and the rest of our Islamic enemies the same as we did to Japan.
Presidents mobilized Americans and Japan was defeated in 45 months from Pearl Harbor to their surrender.
Bush II had eight years and he didn’t finish the job.
