#4 "Muslims demand..."

The Allanists certainly have mastered the fine art of strategic victimhood, haven't they?

I'll make a prediction: within a decade, Muslims will have replaced African-Americans as the Democratic Party's "Officially Recognized Poor Helpless Victims." Prepare for shameless pandering like you've NEVER seen before, from a brand-new alliance born in Hell itself.

#5 Adding to the above, there's a good essay by David Warren today over on RealClearPolitics.com, Our Real Enemy is Within Us, in which he says
I continue to be optimistic about what can be done, should we summon the will to do it. I have written repeatedly that a robust and unified Western response to "Islamofascism" could fling it quickly onto the trash-heap of history, to join Nasserism and Baathism and other earlier manifestations of Arab nationalism and socialism. Smack it hard, without apology.

My pessimism is founded in the fear that this robust and unified response cannot be mobilized. We have a huge fifth column in the West, and it is not the Muslim immigrants. They become radicalized only because our "victim culture" encourages them to nurture their grievances.
As they say, "RTWT"...

#7 Red State has a very interesting post that gives historical context to the quote the Pope selected. There is a lot more to his comments than appears on the surface.

#8 They become radicalized only because our "victim culture" encourages them to nurture their grievances.

I call male bovine fecal matter.

The cartoonifada disproves this completely. Nowhere in the west did we "nurture" the massive over-reaction seen throughout so many Muslim majority countries. While our spineless acquiesence to the indignation that accompanied these offending drawings only encouraged further outrage, it in no way inspired or drove it.

Islam is the epitome of a "victim culture", right from the get-go. I've said it before; Muslims are skinless people living in a sandpaper world. Tough shit for them.

Whiny-assed losers.

#10 About 24 years ago a muslim damn near assasinated a Pope who turned out to be a giant of the 20th Century. Was the muslim paid by the commies? Yeah, I think so.

But this is the year 2006. a muslim even tries to assasinate a Pope and I can promise you a tipping point will be reached. Dearborn will burn together with portions of NY, LA, Tuson, Atalnta, Chicago...shall I go on?
