Assimilation is the key.

[Sherman Logan]

The United States is geographically more separate from the Middle East

Six hours farther.

Hardly an insurmountable obstacle.

[No Truce With Kings]

I suspect that it has to do with a greater sense of national identity. You come to the United States and become American. You go to any nation in Europe and remain a foreigner. Even if you were born there, if your parents are from elsewhere.

Foreigners that come here are owners. Foreigners in the UK are renters.

[Vince Ferrer]

Assimilation is the key.

And hopefully, the eventual re-export of a more tolerant islam.

Wide open borders ping

why..britain?
I..think..the..answer..is..very..simple

Cause..she..aint..so..great..anymore.

She..has..been..weakened..through..immigration,liberal/leftist..thought..and..its..institutions..have..been..penetrated..by..islam.

Therefore..she..is..an..easy..pushover

Loads..of..manpower..in..place..who..have.access..to..information,..the..cover..of..political..correctness..under..which..they..can..hide..and..a..large..base..of..sheep..who..feel..islam..is..not..a..threat.

The..US..does..not..have..nearly..the..concentration,penetration..and..less..of..a..tolerence..for..these..new.thoughts..from..the..caveman..world

Why Britain and not the U.S.?

The reason is shown below. The UK's PC new Prime Minister, who loves PC diversity and hates the war in Iraq.

Brown puckers his lips to serial kiss the arses of the al Qaeda serial killers serving as Doctors and Police Officers in the UK.

[Sherman Logan]

That’s gotta suck.

Keyboards aren’t expensive. They’ve got a dozen of them at the local Goodwill for $1 each.

[NurdlyPeon]

Why not the United States? Well, gee, how about the simple reason that the Muzzies know that the negatives would far out-weight the positives of such an attack on the U.S. It would weaken their allies in the U.S. (that would be the Democrat Party), and would piss off the American people (who already seem to be forgetting about 9/11).

The US has been hit harder than Europe in terms of the number of fatalities. The two attacks against the WTC and the one against the Pentagon plus the crash of the plane in PA, killed 3000 people.

I suggest that we stop patting ourselves on the back about the lack of attacks and realize that we are still the number 1 target of AQ. The first attack on the WTC took place in 1993 and was followed up eight years later. AQ is noted for its careful planning and multiple attacks. I have no doubt that they are planning another spectacular attack against the US. That is the reason why we have not been hit again--yet.

[Smokin' Joe]

Because in the US when some local decides to go jihadi, the press squelches it.

[kabar]

I agree with you in terms of the timing. AQ has been trying to isolate the US in Iraq. They were successful in getting the Spanish to pull out and now they are working on the Brits, especially now that Blair is gone. We will be the last big target after they have isolated us. And they will wait until the political timing is right.

LOL! I thought that all of those dots were for effect. Use TAB instead of the dots. At least your lines will wrap. Good luck!

[barb-tex]

Assimilation didn’t seem to work on the 9-11 nineteen however.

Me too. Edgy new media performance art. ROTFL.

A smaller percentage of our overall popultation is Islamic. Hope it stays that way.
