What can you expect from a kid named Jihad?

Nablus, The West Bank -- He couldn't be 10 yet, but the kid had his career figured. In a group of local preteens, he also seemed to be the leader.

His mark of authority was a crude contraption he brandished. It was a piece of wood carved into the shape of an Israeli-made Uzi. To complete his little facsimile, he had rigged his handmade weapon with a long rusty nail that he kept sliding along a slit in the wood in imitation of the re-loading action on a rifle.

Aren't we lucky to have a Johnny Jihad of our very own? None other than Johnny (Jihad) Walker.

JIHAD = scam to motivate the masses to do a totalitarian theocracy's dirty work.

It works like this: I don't have any real currency to offer you to fight and kill yourself for my political platform, but I can offer you "Allah's" currency instead: a non stop sex orgy with booze and snacks and by the way, you only get it after you die.

The key is to keep cult members stupid enough to belive this. Evidently there are no problems there.

What motivated him? You could start with the fact of his name: Jihad Titi.

Yeah a name like "TITI" has got to be hard on a kid's ego.

Abdel Qassem, who intends challenging Yasser Arafat for president of the Palestinian Authority in upcoming elections

If this man has any realistic chance of beating Arafat in an election, his are numbered. Does anyone honestly believe Ol' Yasser would ever permit a fair election that might end his power?

Notorious moron Chris Matthews writes...

I believe that this is roughly the same level of accuracy that a chimpanzee would achieve when communicating this information.

Of course even a chimp probably wouldn’t call a submachinegun a 'rifle'.

(Psst, Chris… If you don’t know what it is why don’t you just call it a 'boom-boom-stick' like the chimp would…)

They should rename the "West Bank" to the "Death Bank."

Stupid Palestinians aren't even dying for themselves. They've been tools for agents provocateurs from other Arab states for years - the same states that don't want Palestinian immigrants.

Every time the populace in an Arab state starts to ask why the rulers are rolling in oil dough and they live like dogs, it's a simple task to whip up the Palestine/Isreal Travelling Roadshow to divert their attention. It's very easy to manipulate people who can't read.

"How many of you are ready to die for Palestine?" he challenged.

"All of us!" the kid sporting the Uzi look-alike barked back.

Coming soon, to a neighborhood near you.

Here's a happy thought from Middle East expert Daniel Pipes:

Islamists constitute a small but significant minority of Muslims, perhaps 10 to 15 per cent of the population. Many of them are peaceable in apearance, but they all must be considered potential killers.

How does 400,000 to 800,000 -- in our country -- potential killers sound?

It's interesting that countries that are supposedly so pro-Palestinian will not give them any support beyond paying off the families of homicide bombers. The Muslim countries do not offer to give the Palestinians a place to live in their huge countries (Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia) because they would rather convince them that they have some right to Christian holy lands in order to keep them in the West Bank doing their dirty work of killing Israelis.

The world won't do much against countries that sponsor terrorism as long as the world powers including America keep stupidly believing that terrorism is supported by little bands of radicals that are beyond anybody's control. Nobody seems to want to believe that terrorism is supported by the upper echelons of goverments of countries like Libya, Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. The Muslim countries need the Pallies in order to hold off military action by us. It's working. It's been almost 9 months since Sept. 11th and so far, we've let Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Iraq get away scot free. The only thing we've done to terrorism is hit small bands of al-Qaeda in Afghanistan. No wonder the terrorists are as bold as ever and planning new and worse attacks. They know we don't have the political courage to hit the big boys in Iraq, Iran, or Saudi. They're laughing their asses off at us chasing al-Qaeda around the hills of Afghanistan while they plot against us. What does it take for us to wage an appropriate response, a nuclear detonation in America? /rant off

Hmmmm..... you just may have an idea there. Is this a CULT? I think I will refer to it as that from now on.

Johnny Walker.

What kind of parents would name a child after a brand of Scotch Whiskey.

Reminds me of a family named Dunn who named their son "Justice Wilbe"

Or Lear who named his daughter "Shanda"

Mohammad was an opportunist who invented the cult of Islam in order to recruit the the troops and labor he needed to wage wars of aggression and pillage.

You can bet Janet Reno and the BATF would have burned down Mohammads wacky farm.

In Lima Ohio in the 70's, we had a guy in the phone book named Harry Dangler.
There was also a lady named Iona Nutt.

Typical crank call:
Is this Iona Nutt?
Yes.
Don't they look at you funny in the showers?
