Brumbear, I get your point, I think. Difficult to articulate. Kenm123t. Not to criticize, but the "virgin" thing? It's not the deal. In islamic heaven you are attended by houris. ( No, NOT whores ) They are angelic beings, perfect of form and voice, and eternally virginal and perfect. You also may eat of forbidden foods, and never be sick or get fat. ( P-butter & Bacon with Banana sandwiches are a-ok ) Drugs and alcohol are also ok, and you never have a hangover, or suffer from ED. In short, a 14 yr old's heaven. ( with serious tweaking from old, sick, fat men, who wish they were still 14. ) The heaven of my faith differs a bit. But I'm not knocking theirs. Just trying to keep it real. Stupid stereotypes that are not true reduce your ability to reason. That's what they are for. ( Did I catch your point in this limited sense, Brumbear? ) Also, re: virgin shortage. In Iranian Prisons, condemned women are raped by the guards before execution so they don't go to heaven virgin. Adding Insult to Injury is a way of life for evil men. |

I'm completely happy leaving them to be as batt shit crazy as they want to be. It's when they start threatening the rest of the world that crazy has to end. Currently, Islamic leadership is seeking to bring about the return of the 12th Imam. It's batt shit crazy on steroids. |

Sayitaintso, The original line was "kill them all, God will know his own." A translation. From the latin. "Caedite eos! Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius" or ( per wiki ) "Kill them [all]! Surely the Lord discerns which [ones] are his". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albigensian_Crusade

I was kinda hoping to avoid the "glass parking lot" solution. I rather prefer the pinpoint abilities of something like Thor. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_bombardment Destroying a palace, without turning the city around it into a firestorm, seems more useful in winning "hearts and minds" than detonating a megaton bomb over a city of people that just want to eat & get laid. ( the first is an issue because religious fanatics here want to turn food into fuel, the second is an issue because the religious fanatics there have serious sex hangups ) Besides, we need to keep the nukes to deflect planet killing comets and asteroids. ( Fighting religious radicals in the streets of our cities would be less damaging than mile high tsunamis and plasma fronts a thousand miles across. I do admit that being beheaded kills you just as surely ) Good ideas? My Mother's idea for Afghanistan is to roll into a village, take all the guns from the men, and give them to the women. I instantly had the vision...."Ok ladies! Sgt. Trixie here will take you all out back and teach you to shoot! All together Now!, This is my Rifle, there are many like it but this one is mine.... " That's the kind of change I can believe in. Of course, I'm a women's libber. I'd send NOW to Afghanistan. That't teach them. |

So we have 2 suggestions. ( that are not "glass parking lot" ) 1. hit hard, eliminate leadership, and be ruthless enough to hold the problems off for a generation. ( worked about that long for the Soviets? ) 2. Womens lib. Arm the women, destroy the patriarchal culture. ( 24 hour Xena, Buffy, Dark Angel marathons on sat tv? Yeah! ) anyone else? |

http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2011/04/21/obama-has-okd -use-of-drones-in-libya-gates-says/ makes sense to me. Not a lot does about this war. Sifo, I can actually understand Barry's disappointment in the lack of high tech displays that roll down from the ceiling. Someone who knows so little about America would never think that the White House is a real old shack. The reason most of the rooms in the WH are small is they had no central heating back then. The big ball rooms were never used in winter unless you had lots of people to fill the space with body heat. I suppose they haven't shown him the underground lair....... Dick Cheney might still live there..... |

http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/266778/dark -night-islam-michael-knox-beran http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/266912/kill ing-and-grilling-andrew-c-mccarthy Opinions perhaps worth considering. Syria is working up to a civil war. Asad is a bit of a an Iranian puppet... or so some believe. It's more complex than that. He's the leader of a warrior tribe that rules a country where his tribe is a small minority. Somewhat like Iraq under Saddam. He has his own motivations beyond Iran's wishes for regional domination and desire to be the heart of the Caliphate. Note Iran's people and leaders consider themselves Persian, an ancient folk with a glorious past who have been the overlords of much of the region, and still think of themselves as top dog. ( and racially superior, and no kin to Asad ) Civil War in Iran as well. One may ask "If it's 2 groups of islamist nutjobs fighting each other, what do we care?" I respond, "What do we get no matter who wins?" the answer is, of course, islamist nutjobs. I'm not sure how to support the actual citizens of Iran ( or Syria ) who want an actual republic so they can go on with their lives and drink good coffee. There's the problem of any aid from us being from the Great Satan. That may poison the good guys in the eyes of the common (and uncommitted to politics ) guys. Any ideas? |

we have 6.3 million people sitting in prisons .... make Afghanistan the new 'Australia' and deport any 'border challenge transgressor' as well. that should give another 14-38 Million recruits depending on who you listen to. Open the cargo doors, have at boys, the country is yours, dont ever darken the US shores again. Any weapon they use will have to be found in country.

Pakistan our ally? sometimes more than others..... There are people at the highest levels of the secret police and government in Pakistan who are using the perversion of faith that is jihad as a weapon in their ongoing struggle against India. There is a deep strain of shared faith that is heavily influenced by the wahabist Saudi cult, and tribal lands close to Afghanistan have the most primitive and radical tribes. Simple geography. higher in the hills you go, crazier they get. Just like here. Some of the leaders want their land to grow in wealth and advance into the planetary community as equals.... they get killed pretty quick though. Anyway, they want our money, we want to keep a handle, however tenuous, on Pakistans nuclear arsenal, and want passage for supplies for Afghanistan. Realpolitic sucks. It'd be nice if we could talk them into not letting people support the taliban, but since that would reduce their supply of crazy people to use as weapons, I wouldn't hold your breath. I admit, my idea of anti-terrorism action isn't Bush's, or Obama's. I'd simply tell the leaders of countries that support terrorism to stop or we will remove them from power. Then do so. Not occupy, not nation build, not shock and awe. Just remove the leaders, no matter where or who they hide behind. Eventually you have to get rational people in charge. I admit it has flaws, and I'm open to suggestions. |

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/jun/3/bip artisan-congress-rebuffs-obama-libya-mission/ Minutes after approving Mr. Boehner’s measure, the House defeated an even more strongly-worded resolution offered by Rep. Dennis Kucinich, Ohio Democrat, that would have insisted the president begin a withdrawal of troops. Most lawmakers said that was too rash at this point, and said they wanted to give Mr. Obama time to comply. Some also said immediate withdrawal would leave U.S. allies in the lurch. I agree that leaving our allies in the lurch after getting this war on Libya going is a cowardly act and not acceptable. I also make a judgment on Rep. Kucinich's character that he would not like. Does "petulant child with no thought for others" apply here? I could be wrong. He could just be so antiwar he doesn't care who gets killed. ( yeah, I know that's insane. ) So, any thoughts on saving the poor people of Libya? The News doesn't even seem to cover it. Is Gaddafi just killing reporters? |
