The Great Islamic Warrior: Stewardresses, Elementary Schoolchildren and Wounded Crash Survivors

We want to say a few words about yesterday’s incident in Iraq, in which a private helicopter with Americans and other foreigners was shot down and then, as is always inevitible, shown on Al-Jazeera. Isn’t it strange how one “news” channel always ends up with the exclusive footage of the Infidel Massacre of the Week? Al-Jazeera is nothing less than the Der Sturmer of our age. The fact that our Department issues press visas to their "reporters" literally revolts us.

The nature of our enemy could not be made any clearer. From Beslan, to Manhattan, to the field in which the helicopter’s passengers met their doom, one theme is constant: the absolute cowardly and craven nature of the Islamic Fascists themselves.

Say what you will about the old fashioned German variety; at least they knew how to fight and fight bravely. These new fascists cannot kill anything that isn’t rendered helpless or unaware first. And, when they are fought head to head they more often than not fall to their knees and beg for forgiveness. Or commit suicide, which, despite what you’ve read at Daily Kos is not a sign of bravery but yet the ultimate in cowardice.

Stewardresses. School children. Hostages. Injured survivors of a helicopter crash. All just more cowardly fun for our modern day Saladins.

We are at a loss to explain why there has not been, to date, any anger in the “American Street” about any of this. It’s almost as if we expect such barbaric and ruthless behavior from Muslims, and, thus, the terrible reality of it is just yet more reinforcement of a belief set that is literally beyond disgust.

Muslims parading their children and volunteering them for suicide operations. Palestinians tearing Israeli soldiers apart with their hands and dancing around with bloody entrails. Heads of families ordering sons to kill their own sisters with their bare hands.

How does any of this fail to make an impression? Are we just that distracted by Michael Jackson? Or have we (or at least a substantial portion) become detached from reality itself, sheltered in a cacoon of luxury and easy living?

Make no mistake about it: a new world war is brewing. And, as before, we in the liberal west are sleepwalking towards it, not really daring to state the terrible and unbearable truth.

There is no co-existence possible with the Islamic Fascists. It’s them or us.

We choose us.

We only hope our fellow citizens have the fortitude to drop the blinders before another attack on the helpless and the unaware renders Sept 11 in importance what the first World Trade Center attack has become: a prelude and a warning of much worse to come.
