First he is going to Iowa, then Arizona, then California, then Michigan, then the White House.... YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAARRRRRRR!

Put some f*ing Haldol or Thorazine in the water supply over there. Damned. Psychosis. And drop some in the water served at the DNC next time.

If someone more computer savvy than me could create a link to todays (July 31)Christian Science Monitor, there is a telling picture about the next generation of ME flag eaters in the caption for the Iran's growing clout story...and that's in Pakistan our supposed "ally" in the war on terror. Also a short idiot's guide to creating links would not be unappreciated.

Hmm . . . I should look into a link-maker for the convenience of our wonderful commenters.

I bet Rob Port knows about these things.

israel has jails full of muslims women and children. tha'ts far worse than chewing on a flag. I thought righties hated the UN? you should be asking this guy for a bite.

Lester,

The United States has jails full of African Americans as well as Muslims. Are we as bad as Israel?

Oh, yeah, Saddam had jails full of Muslims too.

What was your point, or was their one?

Justin he has a point. It is called being an apologist for islamonazism. That is the same arguement, verbatim, proposed by an organization that encourages kids to strap bombs to their chests to blow up israeli woman and children. That launches rockets into a soverign country over recognized borders without a care or worry where they land, in a school, church, temple, no matter, they just want maximum civilian casualties. Only difference is, the terorists in Israeli jails got a trial. The poor innocents on the bus or in the cafe didn't. They were guilty just for being jews or israelies. Not to mention the thousands of rocket attacks from Hamas and Hizbollah for the last few years. Or the 24 cross border crossing raids by Hizbollah over UN recognized borders in the last 2 years.

Sorry ken,

Regarding, " Ignorance, even the most malevolent ignorance, is no match for reason. Like the barbarians at the gates, they can make inroads on the empire, and inflict defeats on occasion. But the fate of the Islamofascists is the fate of all ignorant hordes: which is to pass meekly into history while a more informed, effective and humane liberty marches by."

Tell that to the ancient Romans.

You are correct that the 'barbarians' didn't defeat the empire. It was the empire's internal contradictions that led to it's downfall.

It is not Al Quada who is the greatest danger to us.

It is the Lesters' of the world, approximately 40% of the American public, who believe that diplomacy and negotiations are even possible with terrorists.

And whose moral cowardice leads them to promulgate that 'diplomacy and negotiation' are effective methods for dealing with fanatic Islamist nations like Iran.

d,

Well said. The West is developing an internal sense of self loathing, as if to say, we deserve terrorism because our governments are so evil and capitalism is so evil. We impose this sense of what the terrorists objective is based on our own self loathing, when in reality they are not sophisticated enough to begin to worry about the environment, globalization, Kyoto, the WTO, the World Bank, and spotted owls.

Imagine Woody Allen's comedy about Jewish self deprecating humor in a Nazi concentration camp. If you think, you know, we kinda deserve this for being Jews as they load you into the showers, then you can rationalize what F*ed up bastards the Nazis were.

We don't deserve terrorism. They have no negotiating platform. They deserve no seat at the table. Give Hamas and Palestine and Arafat and Osama seats on the UN Security Counsel next. Makes sense.
