#1 I respect the Iraqi electoral majority who supported Iranian backed Islamofascists, as much as I respect Germans who supported Hitler in even higher percentages. Voting based on the dictate of clerics, is hardly executed by freedom of choice. I am telling you now that the problem with Islamofascists is: their lives. The State Department's inclusivist strategy - designed to direct terror-politics along democratic lines - is untenable. The work product of that policy is jeopardy, and not public safety.

The practice of mass execution is anathema to the Western mindset. We have to get over that, and liquidate the enemy on a global scale, and by any means necessary.

In the Bukhari Hadith, Mohammed repeatedly describes himself as: abd-Allah. All Muslims are under absolute obligation (per "Sunnah" or prescribed emulation of the ersatz "prophet") to assume that relation to their fictitious deity, and prescriptive documents (Koran = nominal "recitation")attributed to said fiction. Abd-Allah = Slave of god. Don't be slave to voluntary slaves. The life of a Muslim is of less value than that of a cockroach. Nuclear arms are cost effective. The use of these against the mortal enemy would conduce the safety of America, and its allies. Legitimation of the Islamofascist ideology, conduces jeopardy.

Once again, the problem with Islamofascists is: their lives. The solution is: MEGA-DEATH.

#2 OK, uh, whatever, dude.

As to al-Jizz, this amusing line of "oh no! the Shi'a are coming, the Shi'a are coming!" is echoed by the world media and some in the US as the latest line of retreat where they can still view developments in Iraq darkly. With the world media and clueless US "elites", the glass in Iraq will always be .00000001% empty.

#4 A bunch of Sunni dominated press and diptards can't see this for what it is. No sense even arguing with them.

ITYS you make me appreciate Zenster. While he wanted to nuke them all, at least he knew how to be funny.

I think you should try posting when you're not wearing your special costume, ITYS. Something about the sequins and lycra seems to get you a bit carried away.

#8 Well, actually, I don't have a problem with killing all the Islamofascists. The problem is that they are all mixed in with innocent people. That's why I support the efforts of President WilsonBush. If going in and overthrowing one dictatorship after another will avoid the necessity of another Hiroshima or Hamburg, it's worth a try.

#9 Methinks a class-action suit against the manufacturer of Zoloft is looming.

This is Internet Delusion Syndrome:

1) Feel the need to be someone.
2) Fire in the belly on some topic.
3) Do some searches.
4) Read what feeds the internal demons.
5) Understand nothing, just collect pithy text.
6) Create Grand Nym of Retribution.
7) Post the collected disjointed brain farts.
8) Hash and rehash. Repost.
9) Confusion / Frustration / Anger when Fame isn't forthcoming.

Crank up stridency rheostat. Rinse, Repeat.

No substance or original thought, no understanding of why shit is what it is, no willingness to listen or learn - total certainty of righteousness and confusion that it isn't self-apparent.

Utter lack of understanding of how they got from #1 and #2 to #9 - ignorance about their own inductive thought processes.

Utter ignorance regards their identified adversary - when it was so clearly laid out for them.

Can anyone actually define the substantive difference between ITSY and Boris? Who is hated is all I can see. Tolerance will invite more razor-blade dancing fools. Kill it before it breeds.

#13 It's nice to see that Al Goumhouria is so concerned about the well-being of American interests in the region. This means that Egypt is worried about not being anymore the first Arab country that W would turn to in case of say, Lebanon in the aftermath of Hariri's assasination. Egyptians are very proud that it mediated Oslo and recent handshake between Abas and Sharon.

Point 2 is that Al Yawar said before elections that wavering Iraqis were afraid of change, even for the better. If the meme of this article and others is true, critical mass would be finally moving toward Iraqis being able to put down attacks themselves and assuring W's overall intent on invading: Clean out a swamp, move on to the other. We need to step back as much as feasible to let them assume their workload.

#15 Hey, is this a hate blog? I am reading all vicious, sadistic noise and little substance. Why come here if you don't want information concerning peace and security? You are defeating Fred's noble purpose. Mr .com: you are obviously emotionally disturbed - if not an out patient from a mental health institute - thus, it is hardly wise to place yourself in circumstances that you can't control. That will compound your obsessions, reinforce the self-loathing that you are venting outward and place your well-being on a pathological course to mental collapse. When sensible people are faced with a finger-pointer, we tend to look at the source rather than the target.

Site-master: please do something about the deranged haters.

#16 ROFL!!!

Hey, are you a real Doctor? Lol!

Thank you, Dr Siggie, for your astounding insight and analysis. I love RB. Free advice from real Medical Professionals. Can't get that even at the best ivory tower cocktail soirées.

Thanks, again, for your visit. It's a moment I shall treasure forever.

#17 "These Shia will form, with their Iranian brothers, a force still more important in the Gulf region, which is in total contradiction with the interests of the United States."

-one little problem w/that. The Iraqi Shia do not have the same goals as the Iranian shia. Most of the data supports them not wanting an Iranian style theocracy. Saying they are exactly a like is like saying the Iraqi Baath party were staunch friends of the Syrian Baathists because they were both Baathists. Refutes some simple historical facts if one was willing to do some research on them.

#18 Look Dr. Siggie. We do not like people like you who are looking to "discuss". It's our way or the highway. You either have our thoughts or none at all.
And I do not appreciate another fake doctor on the airwaves.

"Our way or the highway." Okay, if you think that's best. Obviously you're a professional... something.

#20 Jarhead: -one little problem w/that. The Iraqi Shia do not have the same goals as the Iranian shia.

I'd even argue that there are many (internal) Iranian shia that don't have the same goals as the Shia in charge (MM). I hope that Iranian & North Korean regime change comes from within (with a little help, of course, if needed).

Probably the oldest one.

#22 BA - you're quite right. Seems to me the Iranian shia at the bottom pegs want less theocracy as well.

#23 Whenever ITSY makes the scene, I'm reminded of Stewy. All that is missing is a "Look what I can do" and gratuitous references to his "goo-goo"

#24 Mr .com. End the denial of your sickness, and get help before you collapse into a ball of mental oblivion. The thread of sanity that holds you in scant touch with reality - in face of your pants-pissing and hate-polluted ranting - is becoming threadbare.

Don't lash out. It will only hurt you, and further alienate you from your family and former friends. First you cry, and then reach out to those of us who truly care. God bless.

Why do you hate your father?

Not too worry, we at Rantburg love to run and laugh and play and sing! And we love you too! You're special! But I don't like Mister Doom Man, Ima thinking he's a bullmose DU dickwick. What do you think? Do you think he's special too?
