#1 We need a one strike rule on this. If we find as much as a cap gun in your mosque, it's JDAM time...

#2 This bullshit of declaring mosques off-limits has got to end. As I recall, we torched more than a few prized cathedrals in Dresden.

#3 They also reported that the mosque hadnt been used for religious purposes in months.

A likely story, how do they account for the sacrement of the mortar?

#4 "No MND-B forces entered the mosque at any time during the operation."

Why should that be a big deal? If they are a weapons cache, I don't care if it is a synagogue, church, or mosque. The US didn't have problems with raiding a Branch Dividian "church". (Wako, Wako, save 'em till they bake-o).

What? Is raiding anything affiliated with Islam somehow taboo? But it is okay to raid any other religious building? We need to stop walking on their eggshells.

#6 No mosque has ever been used for religious purposes. Carpet kissing while mumbling to the head barnyard boinker, maybe, but nothing religious.
