the evaporation of Mecca and their stupid moon rock

I don't think we want to lead with that offer. Offend all Moslems over the offenses of (so far) a minority?

Keeping that minority minor ought to be a major objective of all our policies.

The power of this idea is that the quantity of foreign oil that would be licensed to import would go to *zero* at a date certain in the future.

Not necessary, to keep the price reasonable, and adversary political leverage at a minimum.

You can still import -- even from Moslem countries -- without encouraging that kind of behavior.

Ala insane, a la camel. Yes

ANd it's in the Queeran! Indiputable!

Actually, there appear to have been a number of good Muslims in history --Ahmad Shah Massoud being one of my heroes, but one has to think it was in spite of, not because of, their religion.

* Make Western aid contingent upon renunciation of the Jihad ideology.

Sounds great, but the renunciation would most likely be as truthful as Bill Clinton's "middle class tax cuts". The policy of taquiyyah (sp?), lying for the advancement of Islam, precludes belief of any such renunciation. That is, unless the Islamic government involved actually starts killing Jihadis in more than token numbers.

Looking ahead, banishment, isolation, and quarantine is the only remedy for containing the survivors who cling to this radioactive sub-human belief system.

The civilized world flirts with its own demise by accomodating this blight on the human race.

It is clear that money flows into the jihadist coffers from oil. At the very least the Saudi government itself is funding thousands of Wahhabist mosques and schools around the world.

The simple question is this: if it doesn't cost us any more, are we better off if we keep oil production at home? I would argue that we are. Liberals love to scold the rest of us that we are not paying the "full price" of oil, by which they demand to account for the additional cost to the taxpayer in the form of maintaining a military force to protect our foreign flow of oil. If we keep as much of our oil production at home, we keep the money and the jobs at home too.

And more to the point about national security, it means we become immune from foreign blackmail like was attempted twice in the 1970s.

Oil (like healthcare) obeys the laws of supply and demand just as much as any other commodity we buy. We should buy oil from the lowest bidder, in normal, peaceful times. But in doing so, we place ourselves at the mercy of chance and forces that want to destroy the US.

If we say these forces don't matter, and the only thing that matters is paying the lowest price, then why the continual call for a "Manhattan Project"? I say it has become such a matter of national security that price must no longer be the primary measure of national policy. We can address the security aspect by heavy-handed, clumsy and wasteful government (and the first Manhattan Project had more than its share of all three!), or we can allow the natural forces of the free (domestic) market to solve the problem. We only need the right policy framework in which to allow this to naturally occur.

I will be looking for this book today. But, I don't need a history lesson to tell me Islam is evil. I remember the hostage crisis in 1979, Robert Dean Stethem being killed then thrown on the tarmac, I read about Leon Klinghoffer, being killed and thrown overboard from a cruise ship wheelchair and all. I grew up hearing about countless suicide bombings. The only thing that changed on 9/11, was the name of the enemy was now widely known.

Book review of one of the Robert Spencer books.

[TexasRepublic]

Spencer warns that for the West to be intimidated into silence by this behavior is dangerous. He writes, “to place Muhammad and Islam beyond criticism and even beyond lampooning

We should compile jokes for a MoHamHead Jokebook. Being anonymous on the Internet, what mudslime could intimidate or stop us?
