| #4 Anon1: Sorry but I don't buy your logic. "Islamofascists blowing up the moderates with the end goal of turning them into Islamonazis too..." This is illogical and wrong - and the actions of the various Govt's proves it. Indo citizens being attacked by Indo Izzoids has generated the opposite response - example: the Indo Govt's surprisingly aggressive prosecution of the IJ and other asshats. I think the 'zoids have made a serious mistake -in Indo, in SaoodiLand, and in Morocco. PakiLand is anyone's guess. Everyone there is in one looney group or another, it seems. But in the others, the reaction has been a serious crackdown on the Izzoids. When they were killing Westerners, it wasn't much of an issue - with the loss of tourist rev in Bali being an exception - that hurt many Indo's. Now that they're attacking their own, the Govt's are waking up - it's a challenge to their authority. Indo is prosecuting. Morocco sure made short work of first batch - and the second is in the oven. The Saudis have made some serious efforts - where they perceive threat to themselves. Typically, the Saudis are schizoid in their response, but certainly the official line is not in favor of in-country terror. OBL. He had $$$ and was willing to trade in his privileged life in SaoodiLand for Afghan caves. Targeting the West was not new - but the funding on such a scale was - and that's all that I see unique about him. Don't elevate him to legend - it was Daddy's money and he was just another spoiled fucking jackoff with a warped perspective. Biting the hand that has nurtured, raised , and fed you isn't new. We and the Brits have suffered from disaffected priveleged brats with asinine politics for a long time. Fuck OBL. That's my take on it, anyway. |

| #3 If the moderates are stupid enough to allow themselves to be dragged into the fray on the side of the Islamofascists, then we'll just have to liquidate them too. |

| #2 If only it stayed that way. Problem is, it's the Islamofascists blowing up the moderates with the end goal of turning them into Islamonazis too. Once critical mass is Islamonazi it's time to turn the attention to the Kaffir world to turn the Dar el Harb into the Dar ul Islam OBL just changed the priorities around, that is why he was so revolutionary and such a catalyst in the muslim world. He made the Kaffir world the first priority as a means of dragging the moderates into the fight and it worked so well that it has spawned a whole new movement. Either way it's bad for the West, it just takes longer to get back to us when they target the moderates first. |

It could've been a LOT bigger Boom... Is Indonesia waking up to its home-grown Islamozoid problem, you think? Personally, I think it's GREAT that they're doing this shit in their own back yard. SaudiLand, Morocco, Indonoogies, PakiLand. It should be a major wake-up call for them to cooperate in WoT. Now, with the Dictator Doctor stepping down, Malaysia will prolly soon get a taste of the shit they've fostered, too. Most animals are smart enough not to shit where they eat. Not Islamozoids. Good. |
