We have thoroughly vilified Hussein for establishing this intolerant human rights environment, and rightly so. But here's the rub: in order to deal with these extremists, the west will have to engage in some form of politically incorrect behavior bordering on the suppression exhibited by Hussein.
This is going to look pretty hypocritical to the rest of the world. Of course, the more the extremists engage in activities like those of last week, the easier the sell is going to be.
Excellent point and well made. One of the numerous absurdities of modern life. Like if a guy tells you he's a liar do you believe him? In order to destroy terrorism we have to adopt policies that could be construed as not exactly tolerant. But, survival trumps all IMHO - I'd rather be alive and intolerant than dead and tolerant.
***And while posing questions, here are two for liberals: Why are almost the only people asking these questions aloud conservative and religious? Where are you when it comes to acknowledging evil?
Yes, some people do shoot children, and good people have a right to ask why. ***
The liberals are too busy confronting the REAL evil - George W. Bush.
Another excellent article by Dennis Prager.
Muslim silence is always deafening. Didn't hear a peep out of them after 9/11, except for the dancing in the streets and that gawd awful yodeling over there.
The pictures literally have made me sick. Well, all I can come up with is mass deportations, because a loyalty oath sure as hell doesn't mean anything to them.
Having said that, however, stay alert, stay armed, and never trust islamoscum or liberals, both of whom support or perpetrate terrorism, even though their weapons are different (islamoscum attack with bombs, guns and chemicals; liberals attack with newspapers and Canadian socialists)......
Amen brother!
The point is that they are peacefully coexisting here. It's not impossible.
We owe it to the islamite population to show them they neither now nor ever will have anything we place equal to or above the protection of our children - Mecca and/or Medena inclusive. We also owe it to them to show them we expect their policing of themselves while in the presence of others - and all failures to do so would be recompensed with their greatest losses. Our buildings will be exchanged for nothing less than your cities.
I suspect that you could post that same post on DU, and no-one would know it was sarcasm.
ROFL .... you mean 'ululation'?! Loved this definition from Brainy Dictionary
Ululation
(n.) A howling, as of a dog or wolf; a wailing.
Yep. Until I see 100,000 Muslim marches against islamic terror, I will also consider Muslims in general to be the enemy of civilization.
Actually, I was talking about the ancient liturgical churches, especially the ones in the Middle East. They still believe that a Jewish state in the Land of Israel is a threat to their religious beliefs.
The Catholic Church, especially here in America (where there is some Fundamentalist Protestant influence) isn't so bad, and even some Eastern Orthodox probably support Israel against the radical moslems on a certain level. But the ancient ethnic churches of the chr*stian orient (Armenians, Syrians, Copts, Melkites, etc.) are terrible, and the indigenous chr*stians of Israel (mostly Catholic or Greek Orthodox) are out-and-out PLO supporters (the Greek Orthodox and Latin Patriarchates of Jerusalem are reflexively hostile as well). The Armenian Catholicos of Cilicia has visited Hezbollah camps in southern Lebanon and declared that he considers dead terrorists martyrs of his own church. Moreover an Armenian church in Michigan (I think) had a day to alert chr*stians to the "suffering" of "palestinian" chr*stians under Israeli "occupation."
If all you know of chr*stianity is Biblical Fundamentalism then you don't know about a significant portion of chr*stendom--and the most ancient portion as well. They are a completely different animal.
The "moderate" Muslims are what I call "Trojan Horse" Muslims. They prepare the way for the jihadists. When they are smiling at you, they are thinking of Nick Berg.
The moderate muslim islemmings had better realize quickly that they are leading their cult to doom by their silence of consent.
Other freepers are more able to offer you reading suggestions.

Exactly.
Lol, yep ululation! I'll never forget the picture of that old woman howling in joy over our pain. She'll get hers in the next world.
