There are some basic propositions that nedd to be said about the American-Islamic situation.

1. Islam is at war with us. No, not all Muslims are bad but the record since 1979 shows that a significantly large enough number of Muslims hate us enough to take radical action: Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Lockerbey, the USS Cole, the1992 attempt to blow up the World Trade Center and the 2001 successful attempt to destroy the World Trade Center.

2 Considering Iraq, Iran , the incident of the 6 imams at the Minneapolis airport, the terrorists in Toronto and the funding of CAIR by Saudi Arabia cannot be considered separately. They are part of an united attempt to destroy our values and ourselves.

3 We therefore have a right to defend ourselves. Since all of the perpetrators of the above interests have been Islamic, most of the talk about "Islamaphobia" is utter nonsense. We also have the right to act aggressively.

4 As part of our defense, it is permissible to curtail certain rights in certain situations, e.g. airplanes, and to be more agressive in surveying and searching Muslims at airports and other situations. Even as I write these words, I can hear civil libertarians, liberals and traitors to this country (yes, I will use that word. Does anybody doubt that they exist?) begin to whine about civil rights. They forget the other side of the social equation which is national security. Surely after 9/11, no one can doubt that this is a legitimate concern. Flight 93 was not destroyed by little old Native American ladies from North Dakota. The Muslims will try to use our system againt us and we have the right to protect ourselves. We define the situation, not them.

Having cast off the Islamic imposed limitations such as the Geneva Conventions (the Geneva Conventions farce being a prime example; the Geneva Convention is operative only when prisoners wear an identifiable uniform, represent a national entity and themselves comply with these stipulations. Islam has not. The name "Daniel Perl" among others comes to mind), let us begin to devise a strategy to defeat Islam in a asymetrical war.
