I just posted a flashback pointing out why the Islamofascist crowds think they can get away with this behavior. I'm sure other links could serve just as well, and I encourage others to be posted here or on the other thread...

The difference between the civilized and savage human is explained in the conscious use, or blanking-out, of reason.

Talk is cheap. Blah, blah, blah. The "clerics" should have done something about the brutality before it happened.

So in other words Tammy Bruce thinks(?) that we should respond to this outrage in the same way that Saddam Hussein would? All I can say is thank goodness the Tammy Bruce's of the world are not in charge of America and what we are doing in Iraq.

Remember, this is a culture (Islam/muslim/arab) that has had public executions for centuries. Those public executions serve 2 purposes.

1. Punish by death (beheading, usually) the perp.

2. Send a loud message to others that they will receive the same fate for committing the same kinds of acts.


Not like America.

They are condemning the mutilation, but not the murders themselves.

Ain't good enough.

I say as well,'Expel ALL MUSLIMS' from Washington D.C. as lobbyist. Their money and influence is too much temptation for a lot of our politicians. But I know that in reality this will never happen.

Bomb every house, every building. Blow up all the bridges. Don't leave two stones standing beside each other. Just wipe the slate clean. Ship over a couple of buffaloes and let them start from scatch. That's how I feel about what should be done about this tragedy.

Fallujah may be realizing that this act of craven barbarism was, at long last, over the line. Looks like some of the local imams got some phone calls from some of the senior people in Baghdad. Looks like they have also heard that the Americans will move in hard, fast, and with deliberation.

The imams would not speak out against the local insurgents if they did not fear the Americans. Wretchard at The Belmont Club points out that the Americans have already set up a strict cordon sanitaire around the city. First Marine Division is getting ready for cordon and search operations along the lines of the MOUT exercises at Quantico.

The Imams know this. They also know by now that most of the rest of the country was disgusted with this act of brutality. They are cut off, politically.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

The only way to reform a martyr religion is to have it choke on martyrs, to convince God's bill collectors that a new Holy business plan is in place.

Surround this evil hell-hole with 1,000 tanks equipped with flame throwers. Bropadcast ove loudspeakers the message that unless every one of the sub-human monsters who commmited this atrocity isn't turned over within one hour, the order will be given to burn the entire town to ashes.

It seems that condemning the mutilations while tacitly approving the killings is the official Islamic spin of the day.

Islam is encouraged to lie to all non-muslims. Actions speak louder than words and somebody knows who did it. Turn the pigs over immediately.

It goes way back before islam.

A CARTLOAD OF MISCHIEF A Bit of Greek Mythology From Aesop, Legendary Sixth Century Greek Composer of Fables, Fable 152 Once upon a time Hermes, messenger to the Greek gods, was driving all over the world a cart stuffed with falsehoods, wickedness, and deceit, distributing a little of his load in each country. But when he came to the land of the Arabs it is said that the cart suddenly broke in pieces, and the inhabitants plundered its contents as if they were valuable merchandise, so that there was nothing left for Hermes to carry elsewhere. The Arabs thus became the greatest liars and deceivers on earth. Their tongues know not the truth.

All islam did was to make a religoin out of their old habits.

Rawi also said "imams across Fallujah have decided to make a unified Friday sermon today that will condemn the mutilation of the bodies, based on the holy Koran and the teachings of Prophet Mohammed, which prohibit them."

As I understand their statements, blowing them up and burning them to a crisp was OK, almost "to be expected", as was the dancing and jubilation immediately afterwards, but dismembering them and hanging body parts from the bridge goes "...against the teachings of Islam". Do I have it right?

They assume this is an acceptable form of condemnation?
If there was any mention of turning over the killers, or the celebrants caught on tape, I missed it. Was it just me?
