“No more double standards. If its ok to burn the US flag, then it should be ok to burn the Koran.”
Is it okay to burn the US flag? It is legal, but is it okay?
It is legal to publish classified information, but is it okay if it hurts our efforts to win the war?

“These Muslims must learn that we do not FEAR them as that is exactly how it will be interpreted should we ever back down.
They think we are weak and 9/11 is a example of that.”
So the 9/11 suicide bombers would not have attacked if they thought we were strong? Why should a suicide bomber care? He’s going to be dead. There’s nothing that can be done to him in retaliation.”
That is where you are dead wrong, they all care about something Father.Mother and family ,the scumbag at the mosque, if their actions killed all of them as well then a lot of this crap would not happen.
A better analogy...

Did Christians riot and threaten the “artist?” No.
Now, either Christians are better than Muslims or maybe America has made us more tolerant. Maybe both?
Wonder what would happen if the same thing was done to a Koran?
You’ve got mail, dipshit
“That is where you are dead wrong, they all care about something Father.Mother and family ,the scumbag at the mosque, if their actions killed all of them as well then a lot of this crap would not happen.”
Fifteen of the nineteen 9/11 suicide bombers were from Saudi Arabia. What happened? We went to war in Afghanistan (zero suicide bombers) and Iraq (zero suicide bombers), so we have already taught them that we don’t retaliate against the suicide bombers families, etc...
You’re right, Christians behave better. So do we egg the maniacs on while we’re fighting a war, to better inspire them to fight against us in Afghanistan?
You mean....kinda like the DemocRats? No wonder they always side with Muslims. They have so much in common.
"The DemocRats are only interested in control. They dismiss their own hypocrisy because it is not in their political interests to be consistent. Telling the truth is a weakness to them in their Machiavellian “ends justify the means” world view."

Dude in reference to your “Afghanistan (zero suicide bombers)”
Statement,now kindly Rethink that and include Alqaeda THIS TIME!
>>>”It’s more constructive to say, fund the Iranian resistance, stand with Israel,...”
I would agree w/you, if the “Iranian resistance” was *entirely* non-Islamic (a secular one, not socialist or communist as some like to portray the alternative). It isn’t.
Unfortunately, many belonging to the “Green Movement” are pro the same & current Islamic regime. The ones who want a secular govt are marginalized by the “moderates” & “hardliners” of the present Islamic regime in Iran.
Burning the Koran, imo, is reactive & may work to the detriment of the U.S. so long as the U.S. & its troops remains in the ME & muslim countries. The U.S. needs to severe all relations with the Muslim world to see a shift in behavior from them. The U.S. won’t, and can’t do it.. long history behind it.. so we keep going around in circles, rhetoric, PC statements, reactive responses & *containment*.
As for Israel, she won’t do anything by herself, unless absolutely forced to do it. One wonders why despite all said about renowned ability of Mossad, Mossad hasn’t been able to terminate or attack at least one prominent Islamic regime figure in Iran in 31 yrs! Go figure! The only group which has been able to launch an attack on IRI was MeK! and MeK was thereafter listed as a *terrorist group* by the US and many EU countries after IRI pressured the American & Europeans govts! So, who is the boss?
Interesting post, odds. I’m going to read more on the subjects you mention.
Pls keep me posted too.
re post #231, typo correction: severe = sever
1. made us all talk about this.
2. showed us the double standard of the media and the liberal left. It is pretty hilarious to watch them parse, and hem and hah about it.
3. is keeping the ground zero mosque debate active AND has added a new dimension to it.
4. reminds us how absolutely nutty and *dangerous” the Muslims are. It is a single book that he is burning, after all. Its made of paper!! And there are millions where that one came from.
5. It is one fricken man — he has top generals, the POTUS, etc. etc. all pleading with him to stop.
Discussion and debate like this is very healthy.
