Here's a good rant for ya.

And some interesting information. First, this guy's got an intelligent opinion, and the web gives him a venue. I'm glad to help spread it.



Secondly, here's a documentary on the fratricidal violence of the Islamist movement.



The connections that the documentary makes towards the end, about Neo-cons in the west needing and enemy, is a lot of liberal clap trap. Bin Ladin was blowing up embassies and such long before the Neo-cons got into a position of power. You could say though, that having lived in a bipolar world for 60 years, with the world separated between the Soviet and Western blocks, it is strangely familiar now to have people increasingly saying that we're divided between the modern world and the Islamofascist world. Thing is, the world isn't bipolar any more, because half the western powers are unwilling to fight the fight. We've gone back to something more like the balance of power that existed in the 1800s and early 1900s. I mean, we can still blow up the planet, but we've got to argue with all sorts of people before we do it.

Question is, did we make this shit up, or did they? Seems to me like we were mindin' our own business when they declared war on us, and we should end it now by turnin' a large part of the world into glass. OK, show of hands... who's for blowing up the rag heads? I jest, sort of.

Man that dude's right on! "PC is a drug we know is going to kill us but we're hooked on it and keep injecting it anyway"... How true...

I am SO stealing the Brit, FHB. Gawd, but I love the their dry sense of the absurd and their humor.

I think I'll go out and find some Bass to toast this guy during this afternoon's adult beverage and cigar time.

Thanks for these. Both of 'em.

Sad part is, the good Ol' USA(or at least those claiming we need to "understand" Islam) is joining in the "Unwilling to fight the fight" crowd...we are becoming a nation of feminists, including a large amount of our maile population...willing to let Hillary and Nancy Pelosi lead them around by the short hairs.

I'm afraid this guy is right, and another wake-up call is just around the bend...Will We "Get It" then?

I've thought for a long time that that part of the world would serve much better as a glass floored, self-lit parking lot.

It makes my brain bleed. I'm off to snuggle under the duvet and cover my head. "lalalalala - not listening.."
