Wild Thing’s comment…….
It is not that hard, just pick a side to be on.
you celebrate life, freedom and liberty you are on the side of the USA and Israel. If you celebrate death your own and the killing your own children as you use them for suicide bombers, are into beheadings and torture of taking of limbs and such of your captives, praying 5 times a day with your ass in the air, and wearing non washed smelly turbans on your filthy hair then you are on the side of the followers of Islam……just pick a Muslim infested country and there you go.
So why am I pissed? Why does my heart hurt and my stomach feel sick? Because this is dead on serious business the taking over by the Hezboallah and other Islam groups. They have an agenda that is getting its claws dug deeply into the future of the freedoms we know and love.
What, what, what does Israel get out of this “hudna”?
Return of the captive soldiers? No.
Disarming of Hezbollah? No.
Hezbollah is claiming victory.
I have many thoughts on this. First and formost is. How many U.N. Troops will hezballah slaughter to steal their gear? how soon will these cowards attack Israel in that uniform?
The U.N. couldn’t stop a cat fight much less be prepared for this.
What makes anyone believe this will work? I certianly don’t.
WT, these cretins will lose, but our world will never be the same. Tigerhawk has a good series of comments running about his question “What will it take for America to re-militarize”. He speculates that we can raise, possibily, 30 million soldiers if we finally accept that we’re at war.
I do not, for a moment, think that this Islamist scum will triumph in the long term. But it will take some calamity in The West to finally tip the scales, and when it happens, millions will die in our response. Deaths alone won’t do it. Deep and permanent humiliation, permanent subjugation of the idea system, and the destruction of the religious infrastructure will be necessary. This was the punishment for Naziism, and it’s coming for Islam, both the good and bad. We need to destroy both the actors and their symbols, to discredit by annihilation and insult. The sooner the better.
When a religion begins to rot from within, it calls upon itself the kind of hatred and scorn that is normally reserved only for totalitarian political systems, for the murderous regimes we saw in the 20th century. We haven’t, yet, been able to make the intellectual leap from the still vital Western respect for religion, to the idea that these enemies are political, and not concerned with the transcendant as we understand it.
We will make that leap, but only when Manhattan or Chicago is irradiated, or when thousands die by some conventional means.
Rhod, thank you and I agree with you so much! You explained it so well and I appreciate it more then I can say.
I am so heart sick too ~ and afraid that it’s going to take something monumentally horrendous to get America and the UE to wake up and take off the PC fantasy glasses. As if the towers and London weren’t enough…
HI Patty nice to meet you. I agree with your comment.
WT, check out the video I made when I got home after watching this hogwash (http://www.soldiersperspective.us/?p=1158)!! There were even “‘Nam vets” there protesting and holding flags upside down. I got in my fair share of arguments.
I’ve been getting pretty much disgusted with this crap, It’s not hard to figure out what kind of society you want your kids and grandkids living in, is it?
I mean, WTF!!
CJ that video you made is so perfect. With the music you picked it really adds to it too.
Mark your right, I sure hope more people realize what is at stake.
Yankeemom, I agree! One would think that would be enough.
