Q: Why is George Monbiot spending his time trying to “apprehend” people like Tony Blair and John Bolton instead of people like say Lloyd Woodson or Mohammed Bouyeri?
It’s the same reason why human shields always deploy against the US and Israel but never against the people they fight and the same reason why people who are fearless about outraging Christian sensibilities shrink from tweaking Islam.
…as what appears to be a terrorist attack waiting to happen is stopped!
Somerset County investigators seized a cache of weapons including a grenade launcher and hundreds of rounds of ammunition today from the Branchburg motel room of a Virginia man, who also had maps of a U.S. military facility and an out-of-state civilian community.
As the police are asking for help if anyone has any information it’s our duty to remind people how to spot the Flemish menace if it comes to your town!
Your guide to the Flemish Menace!
And don’t left blogs like Riehl or Atlas distract you with this line:
Investigators also found Middle Eastern red and white traditional headdress, Forrest said.
…that’s a red herring to throw us off the track. After all the media or government wouldn’t ignore a mid-east or islamic connection if it existed, would they?
Tucker Carlson (who still hasn’t hired me) has launched his new Daily Caller site. One story caught my eye at once because it would never be a big deal in the MSM The Michael Yon story:
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport officials recently interrogated and handcuffed Army Green Beret-turned-reporter Michael Yon because he refused to tell them how much money he makes.
Ten days after the underwear bomber’s foiled attack aboard Flight 253 to Detroit, the award-winning war correspondent was detained by U.S. Customs Border and Protection after having spent most of the last 12 months reporting from the front lines of Afghanistan.
Naturally this is a story known in the blogosphere and we’ve mentioned it here but it’s good that it gets exposure on day one since this is the day he will get the most MSM hits, back to the story:
Yon said the incident seemed neither contrived nor politically motivated. “It was more like spontaneous incompetence,” he said, adding that in his travels to more than 50 countries he had never been treated so badly. Moreover, Yon has written about undue harassment at the border before, and said he doesn’t believe this was a result of increased security in the wake of the Christmas day incident.
“I am a U.S. citizen. If a cop on the street asked me how much money I make, I wouldn’t answer him either,” he said. “I wish they would just release the tapes so we could be done with this.”
The sad thing is Yon has been producing first class reports on the War on Terror for years and hasn’t been noticed. (Well we’ve noticed him). If he was known half as well as he should be, he would never have been stopped.
One of my biggest regrets was missing a chance to interview him on the HiWired blog about 3 years ago, we exchanged e-mails but we just kept missing each other.
And Tucker just a reminder: $800 a week, I’d even be willing to start at $650 on a trial basis and you can have me full time.
Either that or suggest it is like a cult?
I have a pal, very Roman Catholic who has always considered Islam as a whole a Satanic cult. I don’t think I would go there myself, but I think cult is one of the best ways to describe Radical Islam.
If you think of it as a cult their beliefs, their methods and their violence make perfect sense, personally I think of it more as a Mafia family but either way it pressures even those outside of it to conform or suffer the consequences.
If we are going to actually win this war two things are necessary, the first is to separate Radical Islam from mainline Islam and the second is to call Radical Islam what it is:
A dangerous and murderous group that is totally incomparable with democratic and free society that has to be at best restrained and at worst destroyed.
The biggest danger of radical Islam is for it to become “mainstream” within Islam. If it does and/or becomes the most prominent sect of Islam then we will have an actual war against Islam to fight. Even a win would be disastrous as the slaughter would be horrible.
All our efforts should be to prevent the above from happening, because if we don’t then the cost for stopping it will increase dramatically.
