Reality Sucks
Paul Johnson was brutally tortured and murdered today by Islamofascist thugs. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. Another American civilian has been cut down by the evil that is that branch of Islam.
Boudicca has it right, it is not terrorism we are fighting, it is Islamic extremism - Wahabism.
While the 9/11 Commission is worrying over why our own military didn't shoot down all four of our commercial planes (full of American citizens) on 9/11 and blaming the military and NORAD for failing to do so (if that had happened, we would be working for the reelection of President Cheney, not Bush, as he would have been impeached for that), while the insist that there is no relatinship between Iraq and Al Quaida, while they bitch and moan about the inability of the American Government to imagine the kind of evil that was Mohammed Atta's mind, another American civilian was murdered.
It is way past time for our politicians (one can hardly call them statesmen and statewomen) to get the fuck off of their high horse of 20/20 hindsight and get their acts together to fight this war against those Islamic terrorists who will stop only when we all bow towards Mecca five times a day.
It is even more past time for the media, which should be morally charged with reporting the news, the facts, and not opinions unless expressly stated, to stop playing politics with this war and to start taking a clear, eyes wide open, look at the facts.
The facts are these: There are a bunch of Muslims who take the Koran very literally and then some. They want to take over the world and convert us to Islam, their brand of Islam, and they want to kill all of us who would disagree.
What is so fucking hard about understanding this? ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and NPR appear to think it is all America's fault.
Apparently, they think it would be better for us to roll over and allow our morals and values to be taken over by a warped religion that allows slavery and makes women things.
You know, this is a really non-PC thing to say, but I don't give a shit what happened to those Islamofascists at Abu Gharaib. Those people in that jail were not good people. Many of them tortured and murdered their own people. More of them murdered us.
I don't care what that drunk idiot Ted Kennedy thinks, they are scum, and though I don't like that they were humiliated, that is a far, far cry from torture.
If all that happened to them was to be forced into fake oral sex with one of the other scum in that prison, well, too bad. None of them had their genitals cut off and stuffed in their mouth - but many of Saddam's victims did.
I wish we could just let the Israilis at them. Or even the Brits - they are allowed to torture to an extent.
But mostly, I want our so-called Democrat leaders to quit thier blame games and get with the President on defeating the greatest threat our country has known since Hitler.

Too true. I wish the liberal politicians woud stop trying to score political points by criticizing the way and let American troops go over there and whup up like we trained them too. Paul Johnson was brutally murdered by thugs, and Paul had nothing to do with their cause. Nothing.

Oh, Beth... I so very much like this Post!
It is unfortunate that the Extremists choose to use this method of terrorism. Beheading an individual and putting pix on the internet and mailing out video is terrorism... psychological. We, as Americans, are completely repulsed by the graphic brutality. They can't win by taking us out in numbers, but they THINK they can win by taking out one at a time and makng a public spectacle of it. Our media seems to buy into it.

Right there with you.
Did you see that the Saudis hunted down and killed the four that murdered Paul Johnson? If it's true, that's great, but it doesn't negate any of my anger. There's so much more going on than we hear about; it takes a beheading to get time on the news these days... I'm sick of it. All of it; the crap from people in our own government as well.
If they think by beheading our citizens they can scare us into submission... they are so very wrong. Someone needs to school those asswipes on U.S. history.
Their problem is that they don't really understand who we are... Or care.
