MeeknMing, and all Freepers, brace yourselves for the whining and bellowing we will hear from the various Muslim factions here in the United States, much abuse will be heaped upon those who want to continue the WAR, especially President Bush. E-mail the White House to continue the WAR regardless of Ramadan in honor of those who were killed Sept. 11, no one thought to ask what they might have been celebrating!

The fact that there are some 500,000 Islamic people here in the US who would not lift a finger to fight for Freedom and the US Constitution, what it stands for, should give you some idea of what is in store propaganda wise.

The the media will have a field day! Bombs Away!

From an Islamic site:
Ramadan is derived from the Arabic root word ramida or ar-ramad denoting intense scorching heat and dryness, especially the ground. From the same root there is ramdaa, sunbaked sand, and the famous proverb: "Kal Mustajeer minar Ramadaa binnar" - to jump out of the frying pan into the fire. And in a hadith the Messenger of Allah (saas) said: "The prayer of repenters is due when the young camel can feel the sun's heat early in the morning." (Muslim)

How very appropriate... I think we can *help* them celebrate this Ramadan. How about a little intense scorching heat for the Taliban?

No one likes us
I don't know why.
We may not be perfect
But heaven knows we try.
But all around even our old friends put us down.
Let's drop the big one and see what happens.

We give them money
But are they grateful?
No they're spiteful
And they're hateful.
They don't respect us so let's surprise them;
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them.

Now Asia's crowded
And Europe's too old.
Africa's far too hot,
And Canada's too cold.
And South America stole our name.
Let's drop the big one; there'll be no one left to blame us.

Bridge:
We'll save Australia;
Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo.
We'll build an all-American amusement park there;
They've got surfing, too.

Well, boom goes London,
And boom Paris.
More room for you
And more room for me.
And every city the whole world round
Will just be another American town.
Oh, how peaceful it'll be;
We'll set everybody free;
You'll have Japanese kimonos, baby,
There'll be Italian shoes for me.
They all hate us anyhow,
So let's drop the big one now.
Let's drop the big one now.
