I'm so sorry for the horrific loss of your families and friends.

We will stand beside you, together we will get the bastards who murdered your loved ones and ours. Every last one, no matter how long it takes.

Ahh that flag, the Union Jack, the Federation star (7 States in Aust.) and the Cross.

PONDER point: history could have been wildly different! Just imagine if the hemispheres were reversed and that every night all those movers, shakers and builders of civilization -especialy the Hebrews, Romans, Brits, Spanish, Bolsheviks, Islamists, and 20th Century Secular Humanists in their Paris Cafes- could see the Cross gleaming in the sky with the mark of the roman's spear too.

If you mean this thing, that's a "P-38".

My prayers are with all Australians for your tragic loss. I came across this on www.thejakartapost.com and made my blood boil.

Indonesian Muslim militants claim U.S. behind Bali explosions

JAKARTA (Agencies): Two leaders of Muslim militant groups on Monday accused the U.S. of being behind the deadly Bali bomb blasts that killed at least 187 people over the weekend.

However, no evidence was offered to support their accusations.

The Aussies I met during desert storm and afterward impressed me, I thought at the time "I would not want to P___ these people off"

Glad you are with us Dundee and for your resolve. My condolences for your murdered innocent. I've been in Kuta Beach Bali. On vacation, just like your countrymen. This debt WILL be paid.

RE flag, forgot to mention the obvious: the leftists and elitists (as part of the pan-Australian-cultural-cringe) have been working away and lobbying for over a decade to get rid of the flag. Not burn it, redesign it. It's not 'inclusive' enough and could offend new immigrants with 'also-ran' religions.

You can have no greater friend nor deadlier foe than Australia.

When the patience of a good and patient people runs out, better watch it. Good to have the Aussies on board, as always. I suspect there are a number of Kiwis outside their sorry government who think the same.

These Islamic radicals have made millions of dangerous and destructive enemies for life..

Amen. If these idiots only knew. Their mullahs get up and howl about American 'oppression' of Muslims, well hell's bells, you think you've seen oppression yet? Wait till we show you some REAL oppression. We can do things to you ragheads that the Roman Empire couldn't even dream of.

The leftist parasites in the West and the blood soaked despots in the UN are going to accuse us of imperialist genocide no matter what we do. I say we should make the most of of it.

I don't think America or her allies will need the can opener shown in this thread -- to open the can of WHOOP ASS that is being heated up for the bastards we're after.

"But the majority of Australians are silent. They are silent with rage and single minded focus."

Same here mate. Our lefties just don't get it...we're angry and we'll show them that in November.

The leftists are saying we brought it on ourselves for supporting the fight against Islamic airheads and the PLO.

The right think it is because we are appeasing the leftists and moving Almighty God out of the living room and up to the attic.

This is Alan Keyes' take on the cultural war from 2000:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights."

That is a statement about rights. It is a statement about equality. But beyond any statement about human claims and human justice, it is an acknowledgement of the first and fundamental truth of all human hope, and all human justice - that our dignity and our rights and our hope come not by our strength, but by the will of our Creator, God. You do, of course, understand that whenever I say that, even though I think I was pretty clear, just now, what I was saying and where it came from, the national media always like to try to pretend that that's Preacher Keyes imposing his religion on other people. No, it's not.

It is very true that what I just said is in deep harmony with the fundamental truth of that faith which we see in the life of our Lord, that acknowledgment of the sovereignty of the Father God. But it is also the American creed. It is the principle which defines our rights and life as a people. Drawn by that document which providentially, I believe, was drawn up to be the foundation of principle for our entire way of life. The basis of our claim to rights and dignity. The basis of our claim to be part of the process of government in our society. For it is on the ground of that grant of rights and dignity from God that we claim that all government must be based upon consent, that there must be elections to decide our leaders, and due process to decide our courts.

That we can claim to be respected, however voiceless, however helpless, however rich or poor, whatever our station or condition, we can stand before any power on this earth - including the awesome power of government, and claim to be respected in our rights and dignity as human beings. It is that principle which gives us this claim, and that principle rests ultimately on our acknowledgment of the existence and authority of our God.

This is the truth.

It also implies, of course, that if we turn our back on God, then we have lost our claim. If you claim your rights by virtue of the authority of God, what happens if you deny the existence and authority of God? It's like a house that stands on a certain foundation - knock away the foundation and what happens to the house? It collapses.

[ARGG Alan Keyes, Bob Jones University February 14, 2000]

I am so sorry for the loss of your friends and countrymen.

I really like your style though, and am glad the US is considered a friend. We, too, have a silent majority that doesn't bother with all the blustering and political posturing, but our rage burns hotter than the fires of hell.

WE WILL NEVER FORGET!

I was not angry since I came to France until this instant.
Take a trumpet, herald;
Ride thou unto the horsemen on yond hill;
If they will fight with us, bid them come down
Or void the field; they do offend our sight.
If they'll do neither, we will come to them
And make them skirr away as swift as stones
Enforced from the old Assyrian slings;
Besides, we'll cut the throats of those we have,
And not a man of them shall we take
That shall taste our mercy.
Go and tell them so.
Henry V, Act IV, scene vii William Shakespeare
 

Kevin Branagh's delivery of these lines is perhaps the finest ever. We share your anger and your sorrow. As we should not spare the Islamic culture responsible for producing these monsters, we should hold the liars and haters on the Left in the same regard. There will come a Day, and we are prepared for it...
