THE HEAD SAYS IT ALL...ARAFAT DOESN'T WANT PEACE! (Very graphic)

Hm. I saw this picture before but I didn't notice the little boy is in really bad shape.

[river rat]

I see these young men and woman - willing to inflict casualties by committing suicide, and I see a dangerous and determined enemy - an enemy that should be taken seriously and dispatched with brutal finality.
An enemy whose mind is fixed on winning - where winning means killing your enemy.

This is NOT an enemy that will cease killing the objects of their hatred (Jews and other non-muslims)through negotiation or being given a homeland. They will rest, train, rearm and attack again and again and again.

This type enemy is not defeated via negotiation or compromise... they will continue to press toward the extinction of their enemies.. This is NOT a war over land....this is their war against Western Civilization and non-muslims - worldwide.

This type enemy - radical fundementalist Jihadist - is defeated ONLY when unacceptably huge numbers are killed, their homeland turned into ashes and their families huddled by campfires whispering about the devastation brought to them by the avenging Americans... Terrorists must be terrorized until they have been killed...

Just a unsolicted opinion from an old experienced grunt.
Semper Fi

[clintonh8r]

From another old grunt, I fear for our inability to kill the enemy with ferocity and in large numbers. Our leaders are too concerned about public opinion and seem unwilling to deliver a decisive death blow to those who would kill us in an instant if they could, and without remorse.

...and Semper fi!

[anatolfz]

No, you did well to post this. What Arab rage against the west means is you get your head picked up off the street by Israeli crews. That's it. No glory.

[river rat]

"...seem unwilling to deliver a decisive death blow to those who would kill us in an instant..."

I don't know partner, I believe Dubya fears the next shoe dropping -- which could cost a city and hundreds of thousands of American dead.. He can not want that on his watch.. I believe he will have to authorize aggressive preemptive strikes against these bastards in several countries - and cooperate with other countries to kill the local "muslim agitators".,

We will NOT win the minds or hearts of the "muslim street" -- we don't need to. We just need those bastards to fear us enough to control their hatred and their tongues.
Semper Fi

A point of discussion that has been totally missed about the "suicide bombers" is this: Why must they kill themselves to set the bombs off and kill Israelies? The answer is quite simple. They not only want to kill Israelies but at the same time "make martyrs" of the Palestinians that carried the bombs. It would be very easy to drop a sachtel bomb and run but a few tens of feet to escape the blast. The carriers of the bombs die because that is what their leaders want. The reason is it kills Jews and inflames the passions of the Palestinians.

PS I am a supporter of a truly independent Palestinian State side by side with Israel and totally free of Israeli influence and control. It is a solution. With a truly seperate Palestinian State they would have the chance and motive to live in peace and if they choose not to they have at the same time chosen to die.

That may well be. However, if they're too hardened and determined to make mincemeat of themselves, then perhaps the best use of pictures like that is to shock people here and the Eurowienies into reality.

...an enemy that should be taken seriously and dispatched with brutal finality.

You've reached just about the same conclusion as some military intelligence
poobah that wrote a book titled "NetWars". (Sorry, can't remember his name).
He said that basically that when Russia reached the same conclusion after their first
dust-up with the Chechens, the Russians started winning by being even more ruthless than
the Chechens.

This isn't the sort of philosophy that civilized Americans/Europeans like...
but with Al-Quida, the only alternative is to sit in dumb disbelief as they
kill even thousands more of your fellow citizens.

That's why I am heartened with each new report of fresh kills of Al-Quida/Taliban.
I just pray they'd gather in a larger concentrated mass so that a few Daisy Cutters
would be all that was needed to finish the job.

(Normally I'm a peaceful guy...9-11 changed that a bit.)

Hell, YES! Reward murderous terrorists by showing them that if they off enough civilians in a particularly brutal manner, they can get what they claim they want!

Unfortunately, when they choose to die, they take innocents with them, Yasser.

[cpdiii]

No!

Remove the settlements and let them live in peace. If they do not desire to live in peace kill them. Today Israel can not mount a campaign to kill them because of the settlements on the West Bank. Israel is in effect a hostage of its own settlements on the West Bank. I said live side by side (not together) in peace or die. There would be no reward for violence with the exception of ones death.

You are either incredibly naive or a major palestinian spinmeister. Why should the Israelis always have to be the ones giving in and making concessions, only to get their asses blown off on a daily basis?

Side-by-side, on top of each other, whatever...it's still rewarding monsters. Why aren't you advocating that we give al Qaeda their own state? How many more Israelis must be murdered to satisfy you and convince you that the palestinian swine don't want to live in peace with or near the Jews?

[crystalk]

Bite your tongue. What kind of solution would THAT be? That is essentially what we have now. No Palestinian will ever stop this, now that he knows he can do it.

"Another Saturday night, and I ain't got no body"

That was the best one on this thread, but I'm a sick puke.

Maybe the kids parents need to wake up with it in their bed like the film producer's horse head in the Godfather?

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

"I fallllll, toooo piecessss."

[Hemlock]

Exactly right. Pure evil does not come with a PG or R rating. We will see it ourselves every day soon enough - its coming.

True enough. Do we really think God will continue to protect us while we hypocritically attempt to tie Israel's hands?

[SwankyC]

um... Looks to me like there is a *Very Graphic* caption in the title. Do you see it?

[Texas Mom]

"Pee on it first !!!"

Then bury it with a pig.

[Light Speed]

Rumour is Arafat has not been sleeping well...he has been plagued by dreams of Snakes coming for him!

Saab Erikat to Yasser.."Cobras you say...very deadly!..you look out the window first!"

[dennisw]

You got my vote! You started a good thread.

The stupid Jihadists in the Philippines were circulating a snuff video of their exploits. One of which was to behead a Philippino soldier. The Philippine government showed this video on national TV and it resulted in a wave of revulsion at their local Islamic Jihad.

The leftists in the Philippines tried to block it being shown. The leftists and the Islamics seem to get along just fine in so many instances. Leftists like to provide the cover for Islamic Jihad and brutality. Through multiculturalism and other nutball ideas.

[dennisw]

The problem is most folks do not get it. On 9-11 the news channels admitted to censoring the photos of all the people falling and jumping from the twin towers and other buildings.

Spanish language TV here showed this as it was happening! How come the network poobahs think the American people cannot handle the truth? Meanwhile the same Hollywood types churn out stupidly gruesome horror films.
