Monty, this is not a war between Muslims and Christians. It's a war between good people and bad people. Did you have a chance to see the Washington FreeRepublic Rally? The Muslims from Iraq joined with Freepers to protest Saddam and back the war effort. Students in Iran are protesting for rule of law, freedom from arbitrary Mullahs, and more control over their own lives. We would stand with them too.

Here's how it works: The right of a people to pick their own leaders is good. Countries with this system are generally good.

Leaders who rule without the consent of the ruled, kill and torture people who disagree with them are thought of as bad.

The incentives that support leaders in these systems are opposite. One encourages peace. A leader who is always at war will be voted out. In an evil system, the opposite is true. Thugs must keep the populace fearful and destabilized. Fighting constantly does that.

There are good people who are Muslim, there are bad people who are Muslim. There are good Christians, and bad. What we're dealing with here are systems. At this point in history, bad people are sucessfully using religion to creat evil systems. That's where our fight is.... We fight the part that is bad, prop up the part that's good. Pray for the people. All of them.

I will not pray for any mooselimb until they ditch the mooselimb koran.

The main threat to the USA and the western world in general is the mooselimbs. They can rally and placate the suckers all they want, but 9/11 opened my eyes.
