#1 “I have been going around trying to believe that we haven’t been harbouring a Fifth Column, a blatant Fifth Column, and, lo, we have.”

I thought they were on about the press!

#2 "Still, be clear: this does not come from the Muslim majority, who have no desire whatever to be associated with acts and arguments that give Muslims a bad name."

I just can't see any evidence for that assertion.

#3 Just what percentage of Muslims in N.America have radical or fundamentalist ideas I wonder. Is it 5% or more like 40% ?

#4 Even if only a small percentage actually place the bombs, an equally great worry is the much larger percentage who wouldn't but support the end goal of destroying the West.

#5 Don't be too hard on the moderate Muslims: after all, a key point of terrorism is to terrorize, and you start by terrorizing the people closest to you. The moderate Muslims understand, I think, very well just how crazy and serious the fascists are, and they also understand how quickly they could die.

And it's asking a lot of a 'pink' person (to use the pink/grey idea, or 'sheep' if you prefer the sheep/sheepdog/wolf comparison) to sacrifice himself, the wife and kids to turn in someone at the mosque. Takes a brave man to do that. Most people aren't that brave.

We could help buck up the moderates by making clear we understand the situation and by getting after the radicals even harder. We'd also need to get the MSM to get with it. Needless to say that isn't happening.

#6 It only takes an anonymous phone call to tip the police.

#7 I can't stop laughing about the Pollyanna picture. I haven't thought about that show since I don't know when.

#8 MEL GIBSON as WILLIAM WALLACE > "Just be yourselves" > TRUTH, HONOR, and DIGNITY, etc. can take care of itself, and will win in the end.
