I've been talking to a guy from Israel over at LiveLeak. He's very proud and very patriotic for Israel. He says the liberal presence there is even worse than the US or Europe. I don't know much about that but it would seem to make sense when you consider so many people there and their "give, give, give" mentality (yes, "give" the territory that Israel won fair and square after THEY were attacked --- go F yourself Jimmy Carter).
The IDF can't protect you if someone wants to bomb you in a disco, a pizza parlor or a bus. The IDF can't protect you from Palestinian pigs who take, take and take yet again, and then when they can't take any more, resort to typical Muslim cowardice (some call it terrorism, I call it cowardice, which is the only way Muslims have ever known how to fight). At least here in the US you have the luxury of size. Many more targets means your odds of getting blasted are much smaller. But ah well, we all die my friend ... the only tragedy is life lost for no good reason (something I'm learning presently as I watch a friend fight for her life in a hospital as we speak).
I don't fear terrorism. Terrorists, in a way, do us a favor. They EXPOSE Islam to the masses. What frightens me more are the moderates. The 40% of British Muslims who are clamoring for Sharia law. Who are building a "Super Mosque" in Christian London (or what was once Christian London). Who attend the most supposedly "mainstream" mosques in the UK, but then we see video from inside them and it's a level of hatred that would make Rev. Wright look like Martin Luther King. Or Muslim taxi cab drivers in Minneapolis turning away passengers who carry bottles of duty free liquor. Hordes who riot over cartoons of Mohammed. Thugs who threaten LiveLead employees because of a video (Fitna) which they never endorsed, only hosted. Fathers who think it's okay to come here and mutilate their daughters so that they never commit the horrible sin of "enjoying" their husbands. Fathers who think it's okay to "honor kill" a daughter who falls in love with the wrong man. Men who think it's okay to beat their wives. Whole masses who reject the cultures and democracy of their host nations in favor of their own closed, backward ideas. Muslim gangs who rape Scandinavian women, Australian women, Dutch and Belgian women because they aren't veiled or because their skirts are too short (and the liberal intelligensia who then asks "What can WE do to stop offending them?"). People who want OUR tax dollars to pay for public wash basins so they can clean their filthy feet before prayer. Intimidation tactics that lead the the closure of a Mozart opera in Germany. And then, of course, the special interest groups like CAIR which sue for any and every offense, doing their best to make it a Federal crime punishable by NOOSE for the mere act of even LOOKING at a Koran cross-eyed.
So you see, if terrorists can make the average person see Islam for the danger that it is --- terrorists who whack you over the head, speaking to people who NEED a good whack to the head to understand --- then, as I say, they're doing us a service, albeit an all too costly one.
But how many more people have to die (and how many more books do people like Ayaan Hirsi Ali have to write) before the west wakes up and realizes that ALL of Islam, not just Bin Laden and his cronies --- is a threat to modern civilization? Moreover, what has to happen before we wake up and realize that a freaking BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, good speaker or not, is dangerous merely because of what he
might be --- and when it comes to our future and the future of our children, is he really worth the risk?
