It would be extremely naive to imagine that terrorists who are willing to blow themselves up in Israel or to crash a plane at the loss of their own and many other lives do so for some commendable humanitarian cause. The courage comes solely from a unique doctrine of Islam. Abu-Bakr, the first Caliph to succeed Muhammad (and one of the few to whom Muhammad promised Paradise without martyrdom), declared that even if he had one foot in Paradise he could not trust Allah to let him in. The only sure way in Islam of achieving Paradise is to sacrifice one's life in jihad. Yes, suicide is forbidden as self-murder. But to sacrifice one's life in killing infidels carries the highest reward. And what reward does Paradise bring to the jihad martyr? He is promised a palace of pearls in which are 70 mansions; inside each mansion are 70 houses and in each house a bed on which are 70 sheets and on each sheet a beautiful virgin. He is assured that he will have the appetite and strength of 100 men for food and sex. This is the fantastic dream that is fed to Muslim boys from earliest childhood. This motivation alone gives the reckless courage and determination to train and execute terrorist deeds in which they sacrifice their lives in bringing death and destruction to "the enemies of Allah."

"May all your infrastructure be ours!"Don't you mean "All your infrastructure are belong to us!"?
To: Economist_MA
Does NOT say anything about having like 70 cases of COORS LITE in each of the 70 Pearl mansions.
To: Travis McGee
They are going to hurt us pretty badly for a while though.We unfortunately will probably take another hit, than the rules of a knife fight will apply when dealing with these bastards both domestically and overseas.
To: Thumper1960
But do we want to wait until 20-30 million Americans are dead? Or do we want to make sure they won't be able to ever attack us again.
To: timestax
And with most North Americans dead, including pilots, there will be no more Airlines to jet all these Islamic Muslims all around the world.
Like I have to save up for a once a year flight,(COACH), whilst these wierdos are flying all around the world, FIRST CLASS, AND GOING TO FLIGHT SCHOOLS at $20,000 a year. And I would bet Uncle Sam is footing the bill for all of this. Wanna bet?!

It is such a kind, peaceful religion. phhhlew yeah sure!

Bury them in pig blankets, stops their descent to heaven, or::......... How about nice soft pig skin gloves?
To: Economist_MA
It's probably symbolic language. It means you get all you want. Plus.
I think they decided to err on the plus side.

"We are facing an enemy that wishes to destroy us if at all possible or (hard to believe)..covert us. We may have to steel ourselves to measures that we have never imagined in order to prevail."I agree. Thanks for speaking the truth.

actually, what *you* don't want to admit is that this *is* about gutter religion and the culture it lends itself to. there is right and wrong, and either muhammad is right or Jesus is. Would that make Judaism a "gutter religion" too? What about Hinduism? Shall we kill 'em all and let Jesus sort 'em out?
To: neutrino
"Where is the clear declaration of their loyalties?"It is the responsibility of the mid-Eastern communities in this country to 'root-out' the terrorists in their midst. Have they done that? I don't think so. "You are either with us or, you're against us." One more significant terrorist incident in this country and these communities will be viewed as complicit.

But Allah is sure to run out of virgins up there in Paradise pretty soon, haven't these fellows thought out the logistics on this? And perhaps Paradise is not all that infinitely expandable either.It really doesn't matter if you're burning in Hell.
Maybe the version of Hell the terrorists get will be their 70 virgins--with orders to look, don't touch. For eternity!
To: Nick Danger
"Think about it: this could be done by ten people who are already in the country and who bought their crop dusters five years ago and have them safely stored in hangars, ready to go." I think we should stop obsessing on 'crop-dusters.' There are many ways to spread this 'stuff.'

"...They have good sense."I usually try to see somebody else's point of view in order to find a reason for such zealousness.
The martyrs virtually all originate from a poor, underprivileged environment. IOW,the seeds of despair and jealousy are sown early on.
If any one of us had loved ones die, literally, or economically, we would use that as fuel for our hatred and disgust. I mean, look at the way we Americans are rallying around the flag today. The events of 9-11-01 have united us.
We need to kill them in such magnatude, in such an awesome display of might, these radical Islamic Muslims who control governments. There is absolutely no room for non-secular governments in this world. They must all die...the sooner the better.
And, may their 70 virgins be males.
