I really find it amusing that the Patsies haven't figured out that there is a fundamental tension between what the Islamists want and what America represents. Islam, like Fascism and Communism before it, is an overreaching Idea which claims to be able to produce paradise on earth. And like the Communists and Fascists before it, the value of the individual is reduced to nothing except "in the service of Islam".

This is a marked contrast to the pragmatism and cherishing of the individual in American and British models. This model is more successful in terms of providing material prosperity and opportunities for individual self-expression - i.e., our people are happier. No wonder the Islamists regard us as a threat - in comparison to the American and British dreams, sleeping on a mat, eating yogurt in extreme discomfort and spending all day at the mosque whilst swatting away Afghani flies seems daft in comparison.

Foreign policy does have to be careful and responsible. But to somehow suggest that this conflict of ideas can somehow be jettisoned by mere isolationism is laughable. America and Britain won the Cold War by facing and challenging the Communist enemy. We won because we were right. Similarly we will triumph over Islam too.

Saying that we should not be giving foreign aid to Israel (or any other country short of aid in time of diaster) is blaming OUR behavior not their's.

How odd it is that you perceive this as blaming Jews for everything!

If a family borrowed money with interest and turned around and gave money to folks down the street wouldn't you think that that family was not managing their finances properly.
