#16  Mohammedans smoke hubble-bubble
And whore atop Twin Towers rubble:
"Thank Allah your plans
Outlawed burning Korans,
Or you'd be in a whole heap of trouble!"

#13  For those who might wish that we simply disengage, I invite you to study "The 3 Conjectures" from the old Belmont Club:

#11  I still say we should disengage entirely with the Muslim world. We don't go there and they don't come here. Trump tried something like that at the beginning of his administration with his so-called Muslim travel ban. People freaked out and called him racist but to me it made perfect sense. Americans need to stop going around the world meddling in the affairs of other countries and we need to stop letting those people bring their problems to our country. Isolationist? So what? Racist? Islam is not a race. Phobic? There are good reasons for a lot of phobias. In a thousand years we can check back with them and see if they've become a bit more reasonable.

#10  It is NOT about profit. It is about punishment.

I'm afraid there is a great deal of profit to it.

It is NOT about profit. It is about punishment.

#5  Well said, Mike Koslowski, very well said indeed.

As for 'forever wars', it would seem the enemy gets a vote on that and what it takes to stop them. Or, 'Charles Martel to the courtesy desk, and hurry please.'

#4  ...That night, once President Bush got back to Washington, he asked a quiet, straightforward question: was the force of the towers coming down equal to the force of a nuclear weapon?

They were on the table that night. We knew who; we knew where.

I have said for years now that I'm glad we didn't, but I was wrong. After warning the Russians that it was coming, we should have erased Kabul and never said another word about it.

The world was terrified of our potential reaction for a few days, and we should have shown them why.

#2  The remarkable thing was he was spilling his heart and grief out to a room full of mostly white, non-Muslim westerners, strangers that evening.

#1  Two months after 9/11 I was at a Dale Carnegie speaking class with about 45 people in Dallas and we were to do a 3 minute speech on an important event in our lives. A young arab man got up and started talking about being excited about going to see a friend in NYC who worked in the towers but just before he was to leave for NYC the towers went down. He spent the last two minutes of his three minutes in tears trying to tell the group about how wonderful his best friend was who died in the towers. It was the most riveting two minutes I had ever sat through. And the irony he said was they were both Muslim.
