God's blessings upon all Aussies for protecting the East Timorese. X42 was too busy collecting Riady's Indonesian money to care.
Would that it were so. Unfortunately, they have the same multi-culti diversity problems we have here. They are importing illiterate, savage heathens by the planeload, because the Labourites realize this is the best way to maintain a pool of reliable government-dependent leftist voters.

Well Marc:
NEVER, that would be like walking down a getto in a major city(U.S.) with a KKK sign... thats why it don't happen. The aleged peaceful ones, are not that many, and not that peaceful either, just quiet'er.
Got that Marc, probably not your, I'll bet, wrong about many other things besides. This was the easy one.
Simple. You have your figures reversed. 90% are violent, and the rest live in fear. That is why they are silent.
It is clear that Islam is a violent "religion" and for those who deny it, they must have their head buried in the sand.
Not in our name shall innocence be slaughtered by Islamofascists.
NOT IN OUR NAME!
Not in our name shall hijackers, snipers, bombers, rapists, and torturers be pitied for "all they have suffered".
NOT IN OUR NAME!
Not in our name shall this war declared against us go unprosecuted.
NOT IN OUR NAME!
President Bush is walking a tightrope here.
On the one hand, he needs to hold our enemies close until we can open the Iraqi oil spigot which will drive the evil Saudis into poverty and perhaps bring them out into the open.
On the other hand, he can not openly brand Islam for what it is knowing that to do so would unleash the rightful wrath of the American population and lead to a bloodbath the likes of which the Islamanazis haven't seen since Richard the Lion Hearted waded in Saracen blood.
Why not? You did say "rightful wrath"; it's not as if we're making up imagined Islamic offenses.
King Richard had the right idea. There are some people who simply can not be reasoned with.
These words can't quite describe the 'prophet of peace' Islam is NOT a religion, it's a disease and it must be eliminated"
While I agree with you that the Quran is full of contradictions, this is really not what concerns me the most.
What causes me deep concern and what I find most troubling is that Islam calls for the overthrowing of secular governments and the killing of infidels. Islam calls for the destruction of democracy and the establishment of a theocracy.
Why is it that the United States allows a so-called "religion" that openly calls for anarchy, murder, destruction of democracy and capitalism. Islam seeks ultimately to destroy the West from within.
Many people worldwide think that the conflicts by the terrorist organizations are simply caused by religious extremists. It is not really religious extremism which motivates these people. It is entirely "political extremism" and should be viewed as such.
The ultimate goal of ALL of these organizations (Al Qaeda, Taliban, etc.) is for the establishment of an Islamic state and the Western world is the battlefield.
How would the West have ever defeated Communism or Nazism if Karl Marx or Adolph Hilter had actually gift wrapped their idealologies as a "religion" instead of a political idealology? America's "Freedom of Religion" would have prevented us from ever taking any action against another "religion", a political idealology though is an entirely different matter. Islam is not making the same mistake made by Communism in the past.
Communists tried to take over the world in the same way that Islam is. The only difference it seems is communism was no viewed as a religion.
Islam is nothing more than a theocratic form of government disguised as a religion. The Quran is basically the Constitution for Muslims. Each and every aspect of an individuals life is prescribed for by the Quran. There is no need for secular laws or a penal code in Islam, all is prescribed for. Muslims themselves will tell you that Islam is not merely a religion but rather a "way of life" and in effect, an idealology no different in that respect from Communism, Nazism or Fascism.
So called "Muslim and Middle East experts" will tell you that there are two types of Muslims. The moderates and the extremists, ie. "the good and the bad". This is not only wrong but it is misleading as well. People always ask, "Where is the outrage? The condemnation from the "moderate" muslims?" from the terrorist acts that happen so frequently. The reason you see no condemnation is because there is none.
Was there ever such a thing as different types of Communism or different types of Nazism? A good and bad?
My concerns are not really about whether Mohammed was a pedophile or a scumbag, my concerns are for the greater threat that the West seems to have overlooked.
There is another difference, which is what makes Islam more dangerous than either Nazism or Communism. Islam is a death cult, whereas the other two were "life" cults, especially Communism, which -- because of its secular materialism -- could not be other than a life cult. You can bargain and negotiate with Nazis and Communists and find some sort of modus vivendi which could, at least theoretically, lead to a softening "around the edges" of the totalitarianism.
Neither Nazis nor Communists, except in extremis were partial to suicide attacks. For Moslems, on the other hand, it does not appear to be a last desparate resort, but rather a tactical device of first instance. Consequently, while one could reason with a nuclear-bomb-wielding Commissar (who has no afterlife to anticipate), it is impossible to reason with a similarly armed Ayahtollah because the threat of mutual assured destruction holds no fear for him and, in a Jihadic sense, is his key to Paradise.
This is why the only effective tactical reply to militant Islam is extermination.
