		<description>Philadelphia Inquirer: &quot;Former Al Qaeda Say Saudis Financed Al Qaeda in Bosnia&quot;

http://www.philly.com/inquirer/breaking/news_breaking/19425204.html

 Wait but CNN said their was no Al-Qaeda in Bosnia. I have been telling folks in this forum for years that there always was a connection. In fact, I still think there is no such thing as Al-Qaeda as an organization. The fact is this is all an Islamic Jihad for conquest in Bosnia and in Afghanistan. Many came from all over the Islamic nations to fight against the Serbs in Bosnia. In fact, Clinton and Blair fought side by side with the Nazi Muslims. He dealt with Iran to send in arms to Bosnia.

The Clinton Legacy, feeling safer yet?

Talk about an unjust war, one to expand Islamic imperialism.</description>

		<description>Well, well .... I guess maybe Bush isn&#039;t such a total idiot after all. For all his shortcomigs, which are many, and for all of the things he and his people have screwed up, he&#039;s kicked the ever-lovin&#039; s**t out of Al-Qaeda! Not only have their senior leaders been mostly killed or captured and their organization thoroughly demoralized, but muslims the world over are now turning away from them in droves. 

Like Ronald Reagan against the Soviets, Bush saw clearly what the threat was, knew what needed to be done to defeat it, and set about doing it with the pedal to the metal. 

Furthermore, he didn&#039;t give a rat&#039;s a$$ if the namby-pamby, limp-wristed liberals or their fawning allies in the media liked it or not. 

Thank you, President Bush.</description>

		<description>&quot;arguments that supposedly don’t merit being taken seriously&quot;

&quot;even as it is being shown up for the pathetic, defeatable, redneck movement that it is&quot;

Really??? this pathetic movement simultaneously hijacked 3 planes one day, and they coordinated that around the world from a shack in a goat village in Afghanistan of all places. They have a propaganda machine, al-jazerra, and websites and tech way beyond what I would call redneck.
And although this may be the end of just the beginning there are too few of these types of internal struggles within Islam being unearthed to make Westerners believe that some sort of change or revolution is coming. If these are the type of positive results that the US goverment is looking for within Islam as a whole, then this has been gained by going to fight them in Afghanistan and Iraq. So do not expect that to stop until Islam is more inline with the rest of the world religions, fine as beliefs but utterly ridiculous in practice. When the Arab street understands that then the world will be at peace until then the West is smart to be wary.</description>

		<description>Dood,

You can learn a lot from people who respond to people that are supposedly unworthy of response or to arguments that supposedly don&#039;t merit being taken seriously.  I&#039;ve only one reply to yours, and that is that it is uncontroversially erroneous to speak of Islam as a singular bounded entity and even more erroneous to speak, like a true Bolshevik, as if &quot;Islam&quot; is on a single, inevitable, chartable course in history.  With that, I leave the rest of your &quot;work&quot; to speak for itself.  It requires no further comment from me.</description>

A tip: nobody responds to people unworthy of response or arguments that don&#039;t merit being taken seriously.  With that, I leave your &quot;work&quot; to speak for itself.  It requires no further comment from me.</description>

		<description>Linked above, it should be &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/06/02/080602fa_fact_wright?currentPage=all&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Required Reading&lt;/a&gt;

The Q/A section towards the end where al Zawahiri tries to justify violent jihad (he equates Clinton&#039;s attack on the pharmaceutical plant in Sudan (one death) with 911) is just one example of the asinine depths to which al Z will go to justify himself.</description>

		<description>The Cold War is the key analogue for the current situation.

Pursue a policy of aggressive containment against the jihadists.

Who are far weaker than the Soviets.

And move forward.</description>

		<description>Dear Jack Strawn:
Your silly post barely warrants a response - I know you&#039;re seething because I&#039;ve dismembered one or two of your convoluted posts at this site in the past - I recognize the sting in your ad-hominem laden vitriol against me.   In any event, you don&#039;t seem to comprehend my point, and that is that expansionist Jihad will continue whether we defeat al Qaida or not. The pace and fury of Jihad hinges largely on the capacity of Muslims to wage Jihad, and opportunity. For this argument, I&#039;m mainly concerned with Muslim insurrection within the Western edifice. Muslim presence in the West guarantees that Muslims will continue to have the critical opportunity to wage Jihad to spread Islam within our domains thereby subverting our society. 

Unchecked unregulated Muslim immigration, matched with massive amounts of loot obtained through unearned oil revenues will guarantee their ability to continue Jihad.  We are doing little to impede these mechanisms. 

When/if we destroy al Qaida, or temporarily install weak quasi-democratic institutions in primary Islamic cesspools like Iraq or Afghanistan, their 1400 year ongoing Islamic Jihad will not be blunted.  Rest assured that the full blown nightmares of what you label &quot;Islamism&quot;, (and I simply refer to as &lt;i&gt;Islam&lt;/i&gt;) will eventually manifest if Islam remains intact.  We see this everywhere that Islam exists today, from Turkey, Thailand, the Philippines, or &quot;Palestine&quot;.  Muslims are not fighting the strands of radicalism -- everywhere across the board they are succumbing to ever more viscious and purist manifestations of Islam.    

At this juncture I&#039;m not so interested in saving Muslims from the visciousness of their disgusting creed than I am interested in protecting us from being perpetually victimized subverted and slaughtered by them in our own (as yet) non-Muslim democratic homelands. Yet you continue to adduce the most sinister motives on my part.  As I stated, your rambling post barely warrants a response, but I thought it might be productive for other readers to clarify what is right about my position in juxtaposition to what is wrong in your rambling post.</description>
