History repeating pt 2
Gotta wonder not if, but when, the US whacks Iran, after reading stories like this.
Update: Apparently the story is false.

Debunking The 9/11 Myths
A great link that should put most of the myths out there to rest.

Conspiracy over
Will the latest video release squash or fuel the conspiracy theories?
And no, Virginia, a controlled demolition did not bring down the World Trade Center, not even WTC VII. Nor, for that matter, did our aircraft shoot down United Flight 93 over Pennsylvania.

Never Again?
A disturbing article that makes one fearful of history repeating itself. It usually does.
His successors now reside in Tehran. The world has paid ample attention to President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s declaration that Israel must be destroyed. Less attention has been paid to Iranian leaders’ pronouncements on exactly how Israel would be “eliminated by one storm,” as Ahmadinejad has promised.

No time for peacemakers
Coren’s as fed up as I am with the peace activists we saved in Iraq.
Some of us, fools that we are, would never have the time to travel to Iraq and make political statements. We’re too busy paying the rent, raising our children, caring for aging parents and other such banal and apparently unnecessary tasks.
How long you suppose until they’re right back in the soup?

Power
My mind must be in Hawaii today.
USS Ronald Reagan leaves Hawaii.
US navy aircraft carrier, the USS Ronald Reagan, has arrived in the Dubai port of Jebel Ali.

Learn this lesson
Here is an article removed from a British paper for “legal reasons”.
“First, it should try to engage with the real Muslim majority, not with the self-appointed ‘community leaders’ who don’t actually represent anyone: they have not been elected, and the vast majority of ordinary Muslims have nothing to do with them.
“Second, the Government should say no to faith-based schools, because they are a block to integration. There should be no compromise over education, or over English as the language of education. The policy of political multiculturalism should be reversed.
“The hope was that it would to ensure separate communities would soften at the edges and integrate. But the opposite has in fact happened: Islamic communities have hardened. There is much less integration than there was for the generation that arrived when I did. There will be much less in the future if the present trend continues.
“Finally, the Government should make it absolutely clear: we welcome diversity, we welcome different religions - but all of them have to accept the secular basis of British law and society. That is a non-negotiable condition of being here.

History is repeating II
More commentary from my list of great writers that history is repeating itself.
Even after the experience of the Great War, and the Depression, people on the eve of the Hitler war could not appreciate what was coming.
Will the world realize it after it’s too late?

Perspective
One sided attacks
O’Sullivan writes that radical Islam is throwing everything it has into this latest mountain-out-of-a-molehill, including adding a few choice cartoons to the alleged blasphemous ones.
Three cartoons were more harsh and insulting than the rest. But these had not been published originally in Jyllands-Posten. They were added by the radical Islamists who distributed the cartoons around the Muslim world.

Latest ROP Uprising
As usual, LGF is right on the case, with two great posts:
We’re All Danish Now, and Get Yer Danish Cartoons Here.
Remember, Iran wants the nuclear bomb - and this is all over cartoons..

Religion of Pieces
A gruesome story featuring one of the ROP’s more barbaric customs.
Nazir Ahmed appears calm and unrepentant as he recounts how he slit the throats of his three young daughters and their 25-year-old stepsister to salvage his family’s “honour” — a crime that shocked Pakistan.

Too late for France
Fred says that it’s too late for France, but at least he has an idea as good as any to stop the jihad.
What the French need to do, but won’t, is to send the army into the Islamic slums, round up the whole lot, and put them ashore on the beaches of North Africa with a box lunch and a coupon for three free Dunkin Donuts. It isn’t a pretty answer. It’s a lot prettier than what seems to be coming down the pike.

History repeating itself
The Eurabian intifada has begun, and France has a choice, according to David Warren. Appease it or defeat it.
As readers of the North American papers are beginning to learn, at least 20 urban districts in France (mostly around Paris) have gone up in flames.

Should we be afraid?
It’s hard not to be when you read this story.
Canada’s most controversial Muslim cleric spent his professional life working around vulnerable nuclear facilities in Canada and the U.S., designing ways to protect them from explosions, tornadoes and plane crashes.

Power problem parallels
An interesting piece on Iraq’s power problems - the story is similar to Ontario’s.
In 1991, Iraq generated a total of 9,000 megawatts, while it consumed 5,000.
Sad to hear that the writer was murdered hours later. What a dangerous place.

Fjordman: The Second Fall of Rome?
Here’s a post you won’t find in mainstream media.
Is it a coincidence that the last time we had migrations like this was when large parts of the European continent suffered a complete civilizational breakdown? Is that what we are witnessing now? The second fall of Rome?
Makes far more sense than any of the pablum in today’s newspapers.
I suspect it will take some local bombs to rouse the Canadian psyche.

British terror state?
LGF has an entry linking to a Pipes piece on how France is far more proactive in routing out terror suspects.

Know thy enemy
If there was a more stark and clear example of the enemy in the war on terror, this is it.
The man on trial in the slaying of filmmaker Theo van Gogh admitted his guilt in court today, declaring he acted out of religious conviction and would do it again if given the chance.
Mohammed Bouyeri also turned to van Gogh’s mother, Anneke, in court and told her: “I don’t feel your pain.
These are a whole new breed of killers, one that a liberal justice system has no clue how to deal with.

Manhattan Energy Project
Maybe this is an idea whose time has come.
How many more terrorist attacks on unsuspecting civilians will it take to jar the United States and other sane nations into embarking on an all-out, Manhattan-project type of effort to rid us of dependence on foreign oil?

The beatings will continue
Quick off the press, Mark writes that it’s the free radicals, home-grown, that will threaten the West. The scary thing is they hide under the guise of multi-culturalism. That’s a cloak no modern western liberal would ever dare raise. Therein lies the crux of the problem.
Thanks to “Islamophobia” and other pseudo-crises, the political class will be under pressure to take refuge in pointless gestures (ie, ID cards) that inconvenience the citizenry and serve only as bureaucratic distractions from the real war effort.
Transport Lesson
I hope the left wing nuts that run this city take note of the London underground blasts. Why? Putting all your transportation eggs in one basket can be very dangerous and completely paralyse the movement of people and goods, as witnessed in London.
It can (and probably will) happen here. Don’t doubt it.
