BTW, the war is just starting...

The West ( dare I say "the civilized World?" ) is locked in a fight to the death with militant Islam.

No second-place winner, no "third way" solution-- it's March or Die time, folks.

It's Us versus an eighth-century "culture" of plunder, forced religious "conversions," and the mistreatment of women.

The sooner we face this fact realistically and quit dancing around PC talking-point nonsense about diversity and tolerance, the better off we'll all be.

We didn't pick this fight- which really has roots in Jimmy Carter's appeasement in 1979 of militants- but we had damn well better see it for what it is, and be prepared to face it and finish it.

I'll put it in raw, personal terms-- I don't want Sharia law visited upon my women, and I don't want a goatroper "culture" infesting my land.

I don't want their vile, nasty weapons of mass destruction loosed on my fair country, either.

They picked the fight, so it's up to us to finish it- balls to the wall, hammer and anvil, fire and blood and iron... freedom is never, ever free, and the coin of the realm is men's lives.

Let's roll...

[TEXOKIE]

Bumped, bookmarked and amen to your post 74.

MSNBC's Bob Arnott: Iraqi Hospitals Filled Children with Gunshots - From Saddam's Fedeyeen
MSNBC | 4-10-2003
...he was told by parents and hospital staff that the paramilitary forces were shooting kids on purpose to make it look like the U.S. forces were inflicting civilian casualties.

"I have discussed privately with my wife how I think Saddam and his regime are actually worse than most modern dictatorships, except maybe Pol Pot's..."

Yes, once all the truth is out - many will know what you believe is true.

The people of Iraq, the ones who are now free, certainly know it.

The people of Iraq, the ones who are now free, certainly know it.

Yes, indeed... it is no coincidence that some of freedom's greatest avatars are the people who lived under Soviet oppression- what we cold warriors called the ComBlock Countries.

I'd bet the people of Iraq will follow suite.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

There is that chance - but there are tremendous forces for evil still operating inside Iraq. Prayers for their freedom - and for the safety of our "free-ers" continue.
