Update IV (6/6): I can’t believe people find this post so interesting. Was it something I said? Whatever. I hope you’re putting as much energy into condemning thug terrorists who want to destroy the U.S. as you are commenting on this post. Say what you will about me, as long as you link to the blog and spell my name correctly.

Update III (6/5): Lawrence Auster — “In resurgent Islam the liberal West has met its fate. Islam is a non-Western religion set on conquering and converting non-Muslims, while liberalism is a Western ideology set on tolerating and including non-Westerners. They are predators, we are prey. This complementarity spells the death of the West, unless there is a radical awakening on our part to the true nature of Islam and a willingness to oppose it.”
As I wrote yesterday, liberalism is a mental disorder.
Read about all the “torture” going on in The Truth About Guantanamo Bay. Americans are such suicidal saps.
———————————————————————————————————
…I just might buy a few to kick around myself. The madness has gone far enough. The West is too darn “civilized” for its own good. We’re teetering on the edge, ready to take a suicidal leap just to show the world how “compassionate” and “tolerant” we are.
Despite what they may say, Muslims are and have always been on a mission to conquer and kill infidels. They’ve been doing it for centuries and will continue until we’re all dead, or they’re all dead, or the world ends, whichever comes first. We need to get over ourselves and focus on stopping the spread of Islamofascism. Period. Save civility and Koran “handling” for less perilous times.
Allah couldn’t have a better spokesperson than a typical American journalist.
Update (6/4): A cowardly man afraid to use his name called me an “ignorant slut” in an e-mail for daring to write that I’d kick the Koran. Classy. I wonder what he’d call Muslims, followers of Islam, who actually flush the Koran? Some of you, too many for my taste, believe that Americans should be investigated and punished for “desecrating” a book.
Muslims came up with a brilliant way to have us fighting against ourselves: Let’s take this book, call it holy, and order death for followers who “desecrate” it. While we’re at it, let’s tell the whole world, including sovereign countries, that they must revere it. Anything less is desecration (including this post!). The leaders don’t have to kill their citizens, of course (unless they want to). “Investigated and punished” will do.
I’ll break it down for obtuse readers. I don’t think our troops or anyone serving in the armed forces should be “punished” for “desecrating” the Koran. I think it’s idiocy of the highest order to have federal rules (or whatever they’re called) on how to handle the book and a potentially fatal distraction in the war against Islamofascism.
I’m now convinced that liberalism is a mental disorder.
More Americans killed by roadside bombs. But I suppose that pales in comparison to the mishandling of the bombers’ “holy” book. If I weren’t a Christian, the things I’d say on this blog…
Update II: Here’s an idea that will eliminate all desecration claims. Don’t give prisoners Korans, and confiscate the ones they have on them. To make it “fair,” ban all religious books or symbols of any kind. Allow prisoners to pray to their god-of-the-month if they want to, but no books, crosses, or any other religious objects that distract from the business at hand.
By the way, THIS is how you treat Islamofascists. You don’t prostrate yourself before them, humbly begging forgiveness for “desecrating” the Koran. Learn from the enemy, gullible Americans.
