News on Terror______________________________________ A religion is at the root of the terrorism that we witness across the world today. All Religions originate from a psychiatric paranoia, based on a misunderstanding of the unknown universe as a god. This paranoia becomes a threat to civilization when a religion insists that everyone should accept that, the way in which this religion misunderstands the unknown universe as a god, is the ONLY right way (to misunderstand the universe!). Missionary religions are an infectious psychiatric paranoia and Violent Missionary religions are a criminally infectious psychiatric paranoia that threaten human civilization. While all religions are psychiatric paranoias, only Islam is a criminally infectious psychiatric paranoia. With the Quran setting the principles for forcible conversion of all non-Muslims to Islam and using coercion of treating non-Muslims like 2nd class beings, the base is prepared for the Madaressahs (Islamic theological-terrorism schools) to inculcate these Quranic principles into the minds of every growing generation of Muslims to have this attitude of paranoid coercion. Further at every prayer (Ibadat/Namaz), the Muslim priest (Maulavi) preaches the practice of terror to his audience. This is how a terrorist is born. So the Quran, and what is preached in the Madaressahs and the Mosques are the real roots of terror. And until the world over, we do not eradicate these, the problem of terrorism will not end. There will come a point when widespread Muslim terror attacks against the U.S. will no longer allow military actions as we have taken in Iraq and Afghanistan and will call for a re-appraisal of our military strategy. A re-appraisal as happened during World War 2 when the allies in 1939 began by bombarding Germany with pamphlets asking the Germans to make peace, to the bombing of Dresden to rubble in 1945. It took six years during the last World War to bring about this change. How long will it take now? And in what circumstances now do we reach that point? Here's the dilemma: to have any hope of victory over the Jihadis, we must use a terrible, overwhelming, and insidious force; yet, in using that force we risk losing popular support for the war effort. Victory requires a devastation so complete as to disabuse the enemy of any and all notions of pride (in this case Arab and Muslim pride) and the futility of resisting us. This kind of psychological change is forced in the enemy only by visiting a defeat on him that is so horrendous and complete that his very existence is dependent upon your will. Think of the bombing of Tokyo, and the fire-storms that followed in 1945. Think of Dresden. It is said that bombs fell in Dresden until the only effect was to bounce the rubble. Think of Hiroshima (horrendous as it seems, but can we prevent it from coming to that sometime in this war?). If you are familiar with U.S. history, consider the way we completely drove out the last Britisher (colonialist) from the newly independent United States in 1776, consider the sacking of Atlanta during our Civil War, and the psychological impact on Southerners of Sherman's March to the Sea. Unfortunately, these are the necessary atrocities of a successful military campaign. This is what the history of war teaches: Without a complete and total annihilation of the enemy, he will never come to realize the folly of his ways... and he will rise to fight us again. The point is when and under what circumstances will we be provoked to carry this war to a decisively successful conclusion. Last time it was Pearl Harbor, this time if it has not been 9/11, then will it be a nuke or dirty nuke attack on the West or the US mainland? |

Analysis of the Latest Global Happenings
Robin MacArthur, New Jersey,
Did you have a look at today's issue of our news portal?
What if Israel does not exterminate the Mullahs of Iran, before they develop a useable A-bomb
- Ahmedinejad will no longer fear that Israel has the nerve to repeat Osirak and he will be brazen in deeds and not just words.
- Impression amongst Western nations that Israel is not goingto be consistent and decisive when it is faced with an existential threat.
-The Mullah Jihadis will gloat overt their having increased the centrifuges from 30 to 6000 and brazenly increase their arsenal further without fear.
- They will go full steam ahead with their nuclear program. comfortable in the thought that their enemies are chickening out. They would develop an arsenal to destroy the entire Civilized World!
- After developing nuclear weapons the
Mullah Jihadis will lend their arsenal to the Hezbollah and Hamas terrorist
organizations to be used to destroy Israel.
- They will be emboldened to be less circumspect
with their, so far tacit, links with Al Qaeda (remember their giving
refuge to Mohammed bin laden (Osama's son) and other Al Qaeda thugs) .
- They
will be emboldened to finance terrorist strikes more openly across
the globe (remember their financing of the Hezbollah in Lebanon).
They will launch their first terror nuclear strike against Israel and make good Ahmadinejad's (I-am-a-dumb-jackass') boast that Israel will be wiped off the map
- The destruction caused after an Iranian nuclear attack, will put Masada and the Gas Chambers in to the shade.
- The Mullahs will also be emboldened to strike the US surreptitiously with
more chemical weapons (remember the Anthrax attacks in 2001).
- Al
Qaeda, Hezbollah, Hamas and other Terrorist organizations will be emboldened to strike
Israel in a way that would be even more devastating than any terror attack launched so far aganst Israel by Hamas, Hezbollah, Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade or Islamic Jihad.
-
Other Islamic terror sponsoring states like Sudan and Syria, will
also be emboldened to defy and strike at the US and the West.
-
It would be a psychological defeat for the West in general, and for
the USA in particular, and a psychological victory for terrorism.
- A nuclear armed Iran will put the oil reserves of the Gulf under their sway. They could easily bring down governments in the Gulf or force the Sunni Arab regimes to fold them into the hegemony of Shiite Iran.
- This new cartel will force up the price of oil to 300 USD per barrel. Ahmedinejad has already said that oil is under priced at its current level of 120USD. The high price of oil will fill Iran's coffers with petro-dollars.
- The Arab states in the Gulf would also benefit from the surging oil revenues and simultaneously acquire an alibi to develop nukes themselves. The petro-dollar glut in their coffers will make this task easier.
- The widespread acquisition of nuclear capability by the Islamic world will reduce the clout of the USA in the region. Saudi Aramco will be a thing of the past. The newly resurgent Arab-Iranian nuclear club will embolden, inspire and encourage Islamic radicals in the various Islamic communities.
- Home-grown Islamic terrorists in turn, will be inspired to launch destructive terrorist attacks on the West by the new found confidence that the acquisition of nuclear weapons by the Muslim Ummah is a providential sign of the coming “victory of the true believers over the infidels”.
- The nuclear deterrence of the West over the terrorists would be lost forever. The age of nuclear terrorism will be upon us making 9/11 seem like kid-stuff.
- A nuclear armed Iran would snowball in to a threat to the entire world and bring Armageddon from biblical myths to being a scorching reality!
To save itself and the Civilized World from annihilation, Israel needs to act now and strike Iran before Iran develops an A bomb, the delivery system for which is already in place. Metaphorically speaking the year 2009 corresponds to the situation in 1938 and Iran is Germany and it is racing to acquire nuclear weapons. Well, if that is the case, then we will soon be in 1939!
Realization of this reality is slowly dawning upon a cross section of world leadership.
But Iran is not going to take things lying down. To beat the Iranian counterattack, we need to guard against a presumed Iranian EMP attack on the USA, simultaneous terror attacks on the American homeland using dirty bombs or conventional suicide bombers. The Hezbollah has been sharpening its claws to strike not only against Israel, but also against many European and American targets.
In the light of Iran's open pursuit of nuclear technology and declaration of belligerent intent, the then President George Bush had issued a strident new warning to Iran hinting at the consequences. "This behavior is completely unacceptable," he said during a press conference at his ranch in Crawford, Texas.
Mr Bush had said that Iran was undermining the push for peace in the Middle East, which is delicately poised after promising overtures last month.
Iran's nuclear ambitions are looming particularly large over the region. Israel warned yesterday that Iran "is trying everything" to get a nuclear weapon, and that if it succeeded it would threaten a far wider theatre than just the Middle East.
Incidentally, on December 14th, 2001, just three months after the heinous acts of 9/11, Rafsanjani delivered a speech to mark “International Day of Quds (Jerusalem)” in which he stated “The establishment of Israel is the most hideous occurrence in history. The Islamic world will not tolerate the continued existence of Israel in the region, and will vomit it out from its midst.” Later on in the speech, he commended Islamic terrorists for their important work and concluded by openly advocating the use of atomic bombs against the Jewish State: "The Jihad operations against Israel must continue unrelentingly until victory is achieved … when the Islamic world acquires atomic weapons, the strategy of the West will hit a dead-end — since the use of a single atomic bomb has the power to destroy Israel completely, while it will only cause partial damage to the Islamic world.” He has also attacked America on numerous occasions, accusing it of “doing evil”, committing “atrocities”, and even threatened the US by saying that their opposition to Tehran’s nuclear program will be “America’s suicide”. Sounds a lot like Ahmadinejad - except for one thing: Rafsanjani currently has an international warrant out for his arrest due to his involvement in terrorism.
This much for Iran's peaceful intentions for its nuclear project!
The Mullah Jihadis are also quietly and meticulously planning a fifth column in the Western World, as another front of their asymmetric warfare. It is high time the US and the West opened its eyes to the happenings around them and give up the delusion they would not have to fight their forthcoming war against Islamic Iran. The Mullah Jihadis are getting ready for it. The world needs to learn that whenever they had their way the Jihadis have moved through an unsuspecting and ill-prepared victim nation like a hot knife through butter; now if human civilization is to be saved, then it is high time for that butter to turn into lava so as to melt the knife of the Islamic Jihad. A knife which is today being given a nuclear edge at Isfahan, Bushehr and Natanz.
To counteract this before it is too late, our principle is simple. Kill massive numbers of the enemy to give them a choice death or surrender. This option works in all wars – the point is when will the Muslims hurt America enough for us to give the Muslims that option, as we gave the Germans and Japanese in 1945. Only when we do that, will the swamp of Islam be drained.
A case for War Against Iran Now
Seven recent developments have brought us closer than ever to war with Iran:
• Results from last Friday’s second round of Iranian parliamentary elections show that the various hard-line principlist factions and their “independent” allies will once again dominate the Majlis with roughly 80% of the seats in their hands. Although not a surprise, the results do make the prospects of a negotiated settlement with Iran less likely.
• On April 25th, the U.S.’s top military officer, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. Michael Mullen, said that the U.S. is planning for “potential military courses of action” against Iran. Mullen also said that Tehran was complicit in the death of American soldiers and was an “increasingly lethal and malign influence” in Iraq. Defense Secretary Robert Gates made similar comments a few days prior.
• A report to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee revealed that if the Iranians were permitted to acquire nuclear weapons, the Saudis and Turks would almost definitely follow suit. Pakistan’s nuclear weapons already have the world on edge. A handful of additional nations with their very own Islamic Bombs will cause a decrease in regional stability and security that will severely endanger U.S. interests.
• A report by Reuters stated that Tehran has begun to install IR-2 centrifuges at its uranium enrichment facility in Natanz. These advanced centrifuges can enrich uranium at a rate that is two-to-three times faster than that of the centrifuges currently in use. This development further erodes the small window of opportunity that exists to solve the situation without force.
• On his nation’s National Day of Nuclear Technology, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad boasted that Iran has begun to install 6,000 new centrifuges (in addition to the 3,300 already in operation) at Natanz (it is not clear whether they are IR-2 or not). 3,000 fully operational centrifuges running for one year can produce enough fissile material for a nuclear bomb.
An attack on Tehran’s nuclear facilities would not be simple. Iran learned a lot from Israel’s 1981 Osirak strike on Iraq’s nuclear program. The Iranians have spread their nuclear plants around the country and have also built them deep underground and behind thick shields of reinforced concrete.
Assuming that a strike could be successfully carried out, the associated consequences would be very severe and may well consist of any number of the following:
• The 350,000+ American and foreign troops, contractors, and mercenaries stationed on Iran’s borders in Iraq and Afghanistan will almost certainly be targeted in some way as part of Iran’s response; as will Israel and nations in the Gulf and Caucasus that have a hand in the attack.
• Parts of Europe, all of Israel, and the Middle East (including the Gulf nations’ oil installations) are within the range of Tehran’s ballistic missiles.
• Iran has established biological and chemical weapons programs.
• Iran’s terrorist proxies could also be activated:
-- Iran’s militias in Iraq will cause as much havoc as possible, undoubtedly erasing all the security gains made in the past year.
-- Israel can expect to be attacked from all sides by Tehran’s proxies with Hezbollah’s Katyushas raining down from the north and Hamas/Islamic Jihad striking from the east and south.
-- Iranian funded Shia militias could also cause mayhem and unrest among the Shia populations in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
-- Terrorist attacks against Western and Israeli targets in South America (where Hezbollah has extensive terror networks and has struck on behalf of Tehran before), Europe, Africa, and Asia might also be part of the retribution.
• Iran can retaliate against the Strait of Hormuz, through which 30% of the world’s oil passes, sending the price of oil skyrocketing and dragging the economy down with it.
But what would this attack really accomplish? Domestically, the Iranian people, under attack, will presumably “rally around the flag.” In all likelihood, there will also be a vicious crackdown on all forms of dissent and opposition to the regime.
All of this, to, at best, set the nuclear weapons program back a decade.
Of course, if it comes down to bombing Iran or allowing their elementary school dropout Supreme Leader and his apocalyptic President to get within a button’s click of setting the world on fire, there really is no choice at all. So, in spite of all of the associated consequences, military action must truly be the best resort.

Optional Scenarios if the USA does not exterminate the Mullah Jihadis of Iran now
- Loss of face in front of
the world.
- Impression amongst Allies that the US is not going
to be consistent and decisive in the war against terror.
- Al
Qaeda and other Terrorist organisations will be emboldened to strike
the US in a way that would be even more devastating than 9/11.
-
The Mullah Jihadis will gloat over their second survival after the
first one when they attacked the US embassy in Tehran and held the
diplomats hostage for years
- They will go full steam ahead with
their nuclear program.
After developing nuclear weapons the
Mullah Jihadis will extend their co-ordination with Islamic terrorist
organizations.
- They will be emboldened to be less circumspect
with their, so far tacit, links with Al Qaeda (remember their giving
refuge to Mohammed bin laden (Osama's son) and other Al Qaeda thugs) .
- They
will be emboldened to finance terrorist strikes more openly across
the globe (remember their financing of the Hezbollah in Lebanon).
- They will be emboldened to strike the US surreptitiously with
more chemical weapons (remember the Anthrax attacks in 2001).
-
Other Islamic terror sponsoring states like Sudan and Syria, will
also be emboldened to defy and strike at the US and the West.
-
It would be a psychological defeat for the West in general, and for
the USA in particular, and a psychological victory for terrorism.
So folks, make your choice.
Since taking office, Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad has wasted little time in molding the Iranian government in his own extremist image, a process which started with the appointment of Ali Larijani as Iran's chief nuclear negotiator. Larijani, a former commander in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) and a close advisor to Ahmadinejad, possesses impeccable extremist credentials and is a favorite of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei. Supposedly a diplomat, Larijani is evidently not a fan of tactful parlance, recently declaring, "We have bloodthirsty foes like the United States and Israel who could attack us with all they have. So, why should we deny ourselves any category of weapons just to please the savage European powers?"
This much for Iran's peaceful intentions for its nuclear project!
And so in the light of Iran's open pursuit of nuclear technology and declaration of belligerent intent, the then President George Bush had issued a strident new warning to Iran hinting at the consequences. "This behavior is completely unacceptable," he said during a press conference at his ranch in Crawford, Texas.

A knife whose edge is today being given a nuclear edge at Isfahan, Bushehr and Natanz.

The Askariya Mosque attack and the ensuing Iraqi Civil War in Iraq will ominously take the entire Middle East into a vortex of self-destruction and apocalypse
The attack on the Al Askariya Mosque is not going to be the last one on the Iraqi Shiites from the Al Qaeda in Iraq. The attack on Karbala today and the attack on the Saudi Oil refinery near Dhahran yesterday are ominous indicators of the shape of things to come even if the radical Maverick cleric Moqtada Al Sadr, still manages to keep his flock of gunmen under control to ensure that Iraq does not fragment and the Shiites can rule the entire country, and not just the southern Shiite rump.
The reason why Iraq is going in slow motion towards a full-fledged civil war was revealed by the statement of a Sunni cleric yesterday. He said "Next time, we Sunnis will be prepared to meet the Shiite attack." Oh, you mean that this time you were not ready and from now on you will stockpile weapons coming from your co-Sunnis in Saudi Arabia, Syria, Jordan. Is that why Sunni clerics joined the Shiite clerics in appealing for calm? So that next time around the Shiite militias that storm the Sunni encalves will be mowed down by machine-gun fire and blown off by grenades and missiles? Just watch out, this will happen sometime soon, when Sadr or Sistani or Hakim or the Imam Ali Shrine are blown up sky high, by another Al Qaeda suicide bomber.
The blown up dome of the Al Askariya Mosque:
In Iraq, today there are three possibilities:
- an Iraq
convulsed by violence for years to come;
- a Shiite-dominated
Iraq; or
- an Iraq that fragments.
The first possibility
could unleash Islamist forces in Saudi Arabia (and also in the Gulf
countries, Yemen, Egypt, Libya), inviting greater American
involvement for stabilizing the Saudi regime....

The Shiites have everything to lose from a fragmented Iraq and so they in spite of the extreme provocation from the destruction of the Al Askariya, they are trying to keep Iraq away from a full-fledged civil war and a three way disintegration in to Shiite south that may eventually come under the sway of Iran and may finally merge in to Iran, a Sunni Central triangle, that may come under the influence of Baathist ruled Sunni dominated Syria, and a Kurdish north that will have to try hard to keep the prying eyes of Turkey off itself.
Turkey would make all out attempts to regain the Vilayet of Mosul which they lost out to the British Mandated and newly created country of Iraq after World War 1.
In response to the Askariya Mosque while Jalal Talebani, the Kurdish President of Iraq has also called for peace between the Shiites and Sunnis of Iraq, he would be keeping an eye on when he needs to retire to Mosul, the future capital of Kurdistan away from the mayhem in a country of which he ironically is the President of.
Iraq would soon see increasingly provocative attacks by the Al Qaeda in Iraq on Shiite sites. Al Qaeda may destroy the Shiite shrines at Karbala and Najaf, as the attack on Karbala has ominously indicated today just a couple of days after the Al Askariya attack. So even if the Shiites keep their cool in spite of the very provocative attack on the Al Askariya, the Al Qaeda will not let them rest till they take on the Sunnis, plunging Iraq in to a civil war.
The Al Qaeda has everything to gain with an Iraq convulsed in to a civil war, as that would prove the American liberation to have been a dismal failure. But more importantly, the Al Qaeda would keep getting recruits from the Sunnis across the Islamic crescent through Iraq being kept on the boil. That is why Al Zarqawi, the Al Qaeda thug in Iraq has pledged to wipe off all Shiites. It is going to be a difficult time for Shiites, as he would keep pinching the Shiite bottom, till they blow off their top - finally but reluctantly!
And so Iraq would eventually be divided between the rebellious Sunni triangle of Iraq, an area that will fall under the influence of the Syrians; and its increasingly turbulent Shiite south, an area that will be used by the Iranians to keep Iraq on the boil to stave off American action against Iran; and also the relatively stable Kurdish north, the area coveted by the Turks.
If you're a Kurdish leader in northern Iraq watching the mess unfolding in the rest of the country, the questions increasingly running through your mind would be: How long before we Kurds give up on a united Iraq and choose independence?
Why would the Kurds want to stay part of Iraq and risk being drawn into the out-of-control maelstrom overtaking the rest of the country?
And if Kurds break away from Iraq, that would enrage Turkey, which fears that an independent Iraqi Kurdish state would attract its own 12 million to 14 million Kurds. Iraq's fragmentation also would prove that Washington's vision of a united and democratic Iraq was a pipe dream. A restive Turkish Kurdistan, could strengthen Islamist forces in Turkey, destabilizing Turkish Democracy and weakening the secular traditions of Kemal Ataturk, pulling Turkey even further from the possibility of EU membership, giving rise to the demand for an Islamist Turkey, if not, hopefully, for a revival of the Khilafat (Caliphate) abolished by Kemal Ataturk in 1920. A Turkish civil war on the lines of what happened in Algeria cannot be ruled out entirely.
Coming back to Iraq, for the Kurds of Iraq, after decades of torture, mass executions, forced relocation and chemical attacks by Saddam Hussein's monstrous regime, the Kurds today have a chance to chart their destiny. So far, they have followed the American script. But today there are three possibilities:
- an Iraq
convulsed by violence for years to come;
- a Shiite-dominated
Iraq; or
- an Iraq that fragments.
The first possibility could unleash Islamist forces in Saudi Arabia (and also in the Gulf countries, Yemen, Egypt, Libya), inviting greater American involvement for stabilizing the Saudi regime with limited intervention in Egypt and elsewhere.
The second possibility of a Shiite-dominated Iraq, would strengthen Iran, inviting an American pre-emptive strike on Iran by the Fall of this year leading to further convulsions in the wider Islamic world, especially in Pakistan.
The third possibility of an Iraq that fragments, is equally perilous, since it would destabilize Turkey. The increasing upheaval we see today makes it increasingly necessary to contemplate all the three possibilities; all of which translate to one eventuality – a Middle East in ferment. And to be buried in this chaos will be the rubble of our blueprint for a democratic Iraq that was to transform the Middle East's landscape into a benign zone of Jeffersonian democracy.

An Analysis of President Bush's Democracy and the GWOT speech (8th March 2005)
In President Bush's mind there exits a seemingly valid connection between the spread of democracy in the Middle East and victory in the GWOT (Global War on terror). While it is true that with the exercise of universal adult franchise on which rests democracy, the idea of rule of Allah through a Caliph (based on the Shariah as interpreted by the Mullahs), receives a setback. This was why Abu Musab Al Zarqawi, the Jordanian terrorist leader causing mayhem in Iraq decried democracy as anti-Islamic. So every advance of democracy in the Middle East should logically be a set back for the Islamists and their concept of Khilafah (Islamic Caliphate) where the Shariah would be the constitution, and the Mullahs be the wielders power. With democracy, power is transferred to the common people. This is all seemingly very good. But is this what really happens in the Middle East when people exercise universal franchise?
What if a majority of the people who vote, want the establishment of Islamic Khilafah under the rule of Shariah, as interpreted by the Mullahs. Then you end up legitimizing religious fanaticism by using democracy as a tool. Remember mass support for a wrong cause does not make that cause right. Hitler was also elected on a popular mandate!
Yes we had elections in Iraq and that is being touted as a victory for democracy, but it looks like we are on the way to having an Islamic (Shia) fanatic dominated parliament there.
Yes we had elections in the Gaza, Judea and Samaria too, but Abu Mazen calls for a 'Greater Jihad' against the 'Zionist Enemy' and in the municipal elections there it was the terrorist Hamas which was elected to power.
Yes we had an election in Saudi Arabia, of all places, too. But they just gave legitimacy to a farce in which only males could vote for candidates selected by the Saudi monarchy. This only served to legitimize the hold of the Wahabi monarchy over what will masquerade as democracy.
Yes the global pressure on Lebanon, would see the back of Syrian troops there, but if it means that Hezbollah becomes stronger through the ballot box, as was evident through their massive rally addressed by their terrorist leader Sheikh Hasan Nasrallah, then the ballot box would only legitimize the evil of Islamic fanaticism.
The point is that democracy is only a method, which would be a noble method, only if the people who vote are nobly intentioned. If the people who vote are evil intentioned and support terrorism, then giving them the right to vote leads to evil leaders being elected and legitimized in the name of universal franchise that was exercised thru the one person, one vote principle. Thus the issue to be addressed is not whether people have the right to vote in a free and fair election, but if they have the right temperament and cultural ethos that supports a civilized peace-loving way of life.
The Middle East under Islam does not have this prerequisite for a civilized peace-loving way of life, so whether Muslims are ruled by dictators like Bashar Assad or Hosni Mubarak, or by despotic kings like Fahd or Abdullah, or by Military dictators like Pervez Musharraf, of by elected leaders like the leaders of Hamas or the Shias in Iraq or in Khatami's Iran, does not make the system civilized just because the leaders have been elected by the people who have exercised universal franchise. Is this point being missed at the White House?
By the way Aslan Maskhadov, the Chechen terrorist leader who was hunted down by the Russians, was also elected by the majority of Chechens. That did not prevent him from murdering school kids at Beslan. Like him, the majority of the people of the Middle East support Terrorism, since their Islamic ethos supports terrorism, as it has been terror that has born and bred Islam since the 7th century when it was founded on terror by the founding father of mass theology-inspired terrorism Mohammed-ibn-Abdallah whom the Muslims look upon as their prophet. Till we zero down on this root cause of terrorism, no amount of universal franchise and elections can change the beastly Islamic core of the people of the Middle East. What has been achieved is a mirage, that will delude us into believing that Iraq or the West Bank are now safer places since the people of those lands have participated in an election. As long as these people are motivated by the murderous ideology of Islam, nothing changes - elections or no elections. In fact if this murderous mentality has to change, we would need ruthless leaders (like Mustapha Kemal Pasha of Turkey) to rule over the Middle East. Leaders who would uproot this murderous mentality from the minds of people, as was done by Stalin's Russia with the Chechens and which is what ensured peace in Chechnya, till the freedom which the fall of the USSR, gave the Chechens to go back to their murderous roots and start the current campaign of murder and mayhem. By hunting down Aslan Maskhadov, the Russians have shown us the right way to deal with terrorists, whether they be despots or be they elected by majority support of a population who support terrorism.
For freedom to be secure in the long run, it has to be curtailed in the short run, till the murderous mentality of those who want to establish a theocracy based on the murderous mentality of Islam are not eliminated like Maskhadov was. Only after all such criminals are no more, can our experiment with democracy bring peace. President Bush needs to keep this in mind while formulating the future strategy of the GWOT. He can learn a lesson or two from President Putin, instead of hectoring him on the niceties and civilities to be observed by a leader of a democratic nation.
Is any one from the White House reading this?

Hezbollah and Syria enter the game of suicide attacks on Israel
With the Tel Aviv Night Club bombing, one of our predictions has come true. We had predicted that once the Israel-Palestinian peace deal comes thru and the Hamas/Jihad Islami/Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade suspend the attacks against Israel as part of their Hudna, the Hezbollah (Hizbollah) will not rest quiet, neither will Syria which wants another front to attack the US-Israeli interests to counter the pressure on itself (Syria) to withdraw from Lebanon, due to its murder of Rafiq Hariri, the former President of Lebanon, who was an ardent advocate of Syria's withdrawal from Israel. That this prediction has come true is not the point (see the story -Shape of things to come in Iraq and the world over-below). The point is about the logical consequences that will follow from this prediction coming true, as we have mentioned, in the story below. Just keep watching as the trajectory of predictions unfolds, barring few aberrations. Our advise to the US and Israel is to not just keep their gunpowder dry, but also to keep their finger on the trigger, to launch retaliatory (if not pre-emptive) strikes against Hezbollah, and their sponsors Iran and Syria.

Bush - Putin Summit, Democracy and the War on Terror
During World War 2, we destroyed the Nazis by allying ourselves with Stalin's USSR and China (then under joint Nationalist and Communist rule) which hardly were democratic nations, so we should have no hassles about aligning with Russia and China today to destroy terrorism. Islamic Terrorism is far more pervasive than was Nazism, since Islam is basically a form of theology-inspired terrorism having an emotional grip on the psyche of one billion and a half persons.
And unlike Nazism, Islam is not limited mainly to one nation. So it is all the more critical for the USA and Russia to unite on the war on terror, without making a fuss about the perfections of Russian Democracy. Let the Russian people worry about that. Russia under whatever form of government does not threaten the security of the USA. So President Bush needs to be focused on the commonality of interests between the two, rather than on the different ideas that he and President Putin have about democracy for our respective countries.
The same holds true for China and its human rights record. The Chinese human rights record too, does not threaten American security interests. So it would be foolish for the USA to be fastidious on this issue of democracy in Russia and China. And it would be wise for the Americans and Russians to learn from history. When the Terrorism of the Islamic Jihad started 1400 years back from Arabia, the Muslims faced two formidable powers of those days the Byzantine (Roman) Empire and the Sassanid (Persian) Empire. These two empires were rivals of each other and had fought a protracted war, quite similar to the Cold War of our age. When the Islamic Arab invasion began, these two powers refused to display foresight and did not unite against the Islamic Jihad, and consequently the Muslims defeated and destroyed both the empires one after another, and forcibly converted the population to Islam. Today the Muslim Jihadis hope that Americans and Russians also play the role of the Byzantines and Sassanids so that the Muslims could once again prevail over both. In fact the Al Qaeda, refers to the Americans as Rome and the Russians as Persia. We hope this wisdom dawns on the Americans and Russians too, and the camaraderie displayed when the two Presidents met at Bratislava is preserved and shapes the future course of relations between these two great nations - the United States and the Russian Federation. The Bratislava summit would really serve its purpose if it leads to the formation of a Russo-American military alliance that could defeat the Islamic Jihad and destroy this threat to civilization once and forever.
Presidents Bush and Putin need to stop Russian-American relations from going into a nosedive
If not halted soon, the nosedive in these relations will be a cause of worry for the future course of the War on Terror.
We agree that both the USA ad Russia are different countries and have divergent interests, but they also have one overriding common cause in fighting and winning the war on terror.
Both are fighting the same enemy. But both have divergent interests too. The Russians were wanting to have pro-Russian governments in Georgia and in Ukraine, These Russian objectives have been frustrated by the West, mainly by the USA. Yes, the current governments there represent the will of a majority of the people of Georgia and Ukraine, but are not those which Russia would have preferred viz., Eduard Shevardnadze in Georgia and Viktor Yanukovich in the Ukraine. The West disregarded Russian preferences and let the anti-Russian, but popularly supported leaders like Viktor Yushchenko, (the current president of Ukraine) and Mikhail Saakashvili (the current President of Georgia), to get elected. But then when fighting a common enemy and that too one who is as cut-throat as the Jihadis the Russians and the Americans needs to overlook, such small niceties.
This message holds true for both the USA and Russia. If not, both will undermine each other in the common effort to the benefit of the Jihadis and to the detriment of the entire civilized world.
Yes, immediately after 9/11, the Russian President Vladimir Putin had asked the Americans to jointly undertake the fight against the Jihadis, by first targeting Saudi Arabia the fountainhead of the Jihadi terrorist outlook. But the USA baulked at the prospect of upsetting oil supplies to the West, and decided to go after Iraq, following the successful completion of the short and swift Afghan campaign. The American aim in attacking Iraq was to frighten the Saudis into co-operating. This has worked only partly, as seen in the perfunctory efforts being made by the Saudis in fighting terror on their homeland, and making cosmetic changes in their school curriculums, which call for death to all non-Muslims and holding all male elections to local civic bodies.
But these Saudi efforts are only meant to stave off any resolute US action against the Saudis. As 9/11 told the USA and the West about the ruthlessness of the Jihadis, Beslan did so to the Russians. Both are convinced that the Jihadis have to be fought to a finish. But the Cold War temperament still hangs over the mindset of both the USA and Russia and so both continue to play petty games to outwit the other. This could prove disastrous for the war effort and benefit the Jihadis.
The moves by the USA to support the Viktor Yushchenko, the president of Ukraine and Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili have not gone down well with Russia and President Putin in particular - who is a very sensitive but a determined person. He struck back by offering to sell missiles to Syria and give nuclear technology to Iran. We realize these moves could turn out eventually to be feints to deflect any further anti-Russian moves by the USA. But such moves hurt the overall effort in the war against terror.
After Beslan, the Russians had said that their military is readying itself to strike at terrorists everywhere across the globe. But helping out Iran and Syria with nuclear and missile technology is hardly a way to do so!
We Americans would do well to remember that in a long term and titanic effort which the war on terror is going to be, there need to be many small compromises. The Russian aberrations with regard to democratic finesse and niceties need to be ignored and the USA also needs to be far more sensitive to Russia's sensibilities. Only then can a rock solid alliance among all Western (Latin American, Asian and African) nations be formed. An alliance of which the USA, Russia, France, UK, Germany, Japan, Australia, Canada, Brazil, Spain, Italy, as also India and China would be an active military a part. The USA cannot fight and win this war alone. It is high time we Americans showed more maturity and far-sightedness in dealing with potential allies like Russia China and others.
The US should also not offend China needlessly by trying to blockade European Arms sales to China.

Land for peace, in Israel
The Israelis need to realize that by starting on a land for peace deal with the Palestinians, they will eventually be pushed to go on to a faith for peace and finally a life for peace deals. The Palestinians following their Muslim tradition will never negotiate in good faith with any non-Muslims, as their prophet has told them never to compromise with Kafirs (non-Muslims). He himself had set an example by his Treaty of Hudaibiyya in which he tricked and trapped the pre-Muslim Quriash of Mecca. The Israelis better remember that any peace with the Palestinians will be looked upon by the Palestinians as a Hudna, a temporary peace, to re-arm themselves towards the final struggle of destroying the Jewish state. The Land for Peace is a first Palestinian step to push the Israelis down the grave into the next stages of giving up Land for retaining their (Jewish) Faith and finally Land for saving their lives (embrace Islam and be safe). This would be done in the typical Muslim tactic of their ancestors who had started with their prophet Mohammed by giving the Dawat-ul-Islam (Invitation to embrace Islam) to the non-Muslim kings of Persia and Byzantine to embrace Islam and be safe. The Israelis better be aware of Muslim tactics, as is evident from Islam's bloodied history of 1400 years and refute the deal with the Palestinians, and prepare themselves for a mortal struggle against the Palestinian Jihadis that will certainly come in the near future.
Attack on Iran and Israeli-Palestinian peace - is there an eerie connection between War and Peace
Before the USA invaded Afghanistan, they brokered a peace between India and Pakistan, so that tension between the two south-Asian nuclear powers did not break into open war and complicate the strike on Afghanistan in October 2001. Remember Tony Blair's many visits to Islamabad and New Delhi, followed by those of Richard Armitage?
The before the Iraq attack was launched, there was a peace contrived between Israel and Palestinians, when Abbas and Sharon were forced to shake hands for the first time. This ensured that a flare up in Israel did not complicate the attack on Iraq.
Now the US is forcing a second peace between Israel and the Palestinians. Can this be a precursor to an attack on Iran.
Lets wait and watch.
North Korea's Nuclear Challenge
And we hope the US negotiates with Korea on the nuclear issue and works out an alliance with China so that it could focus on the most dangerous enemy of humankind - Islam. Communism is past its prime and anyway it was not as dangerous as Islam, so we need to focus on Islam, while neutralizing Communist states like China, Korea and Cuba, if we cannot bring them into the Western alliance against Islam. A Communist-Islamic nexus is dangerous for the whole of humankind.

Waiting for an American Tsunami!
We write this with a heavy heart, but caution readers that this article is not for the faint-hearted.
The coming of the Tsunami has distracted us from the war on terror, but can there be any connection between the Tsunami and the war on terror? Surprisingly so yes, let's see how. The logic of war demands that any natural (or man-made) disaster has to be exploited against the enemy. Imagine, if a five hundred foot high mega Tsunami had started off in the mid Atlantic and had washed off a large part of the USA and Western Europe as it lashed both shores of the Atlantic, along with a major part of our nuclear arsenal and military capability. Now also imagine that the Arab Muslim world had (as it perhaps has) enough nuclear arsenal to wipe out Israel, Europe and the USA. Would they send across Doctors and medicines to the devastated Western world or would they empty their nuclear arsenals to complete the job of destroying the Western world that the mega Tsunami had left half done?
The answer is obvious. What does a man-eater tiger do when the hunter trips falls and his gun slips from his hands. The man-eater tiger would sink its fangs deep into the hapless hunter's neck and make a dinner out of him. So what should a hunter do when a tiger slips into a trap laid for him, or gets into a natural bush and gives the hunter an unique opportunity to put a bullet between the tiger's eyes. A sensible hunter would do precisely that. But what do you say to a hunter who keeps aside his gun and tries to manfully help the tiger out of the trap that he has fallen into. Such a hunter is an inveterate fool.
Now what do you say to the Western countries who are helping the Muslims of Aceh to regain their disrupted livelihoods? We would say our administrations are making the cardinal folly of the hunter who has set aside his gun to save the tiger, rather than killing it.
Since ours is a Judeo-Christian website and would be attracting many Western readers, did not David, first disable Goliath by shooting a rock into this eye, before slaying him? This is precisely what the USA and the West should have done. Bombarded the survivors at Aceh till there were none and then gone over to take over Aceh, followed by the rest of Indonesia and Malaysia. Thus reducing the number of the enemies of humankind by two nations. In fact if a Tsunami, or an earthquake, or a mega sandstorm strikes the Middle East, if the USA has survival instincts, it should capitalize on such a disaster and destroy whatever is left of the infrastructure in the affected areas and take over control by destroying the survivors entirely. This is what the logic of war and survival demands, when we are up against a beastly enemy - the Muslim Jihadis.
The other alternative is to wait for a window of opportunity to open up for a natural disaster to hit the West, which would be utilized by the Jihadis to the hilt to harm the West if not to deliver a final and fatal blow to the West that they are eagerly waiting to do and of which they have declared their intent openly in their slogan - Death to America.
So in our heartless but practical view we ask where is the American military Tsunami which is necessary to complete the work left half done by nature's Tsunami.
If readers do not agree, then pray please tell us if David was wrong in slaying an enemy who had been disabled?

An Agenda for President Bush for efficiently winning the War on Terror in his 2nd term Terrorize the Terrorists
Dear President George Bush,
Congratulations on achieving a much deserved win in the elections. Now President Sir, you need to give a fresh look to our strategy in the war on terror. So far our tactic has been to overpower regimes like those of the Taliban and Saddam in a conventional combat. The enemy stands no chance of prevailing against us in such combat. But once we prevail over the enemy, then starts the second phase of covert guerilla warfare where the enemy snipers and mortar gunners and shoulder fired stinger missile operators can pick up our marines one at a time at their convenience in an endless sniper war. No army howsoever powerful with conventional weapons using conventional war tactics can win such a sniper war. At this juncture when are about to repeat (after the 2004 Presidential elections) the same war strategy in Syria, Iran and then maybe elsewhere, it is high time for us to consider the other option – the Hiroshima option Had we not used this option by bombing Hiroshima and then after a few days bombed Nagasaki, the Japs may never have surrendered that fast and would have taken many more American lives. In today’s War on Terror, instead of sending our marines into Syria and then Iran, Sudan, Somalia, Libya, etc to win a conventional war, only to be bled day by day in a sniper war as is happening in Iraq, we should use the Hiroshima tactic of picking off some cities in the target countries and then setting out terms of surrender to the target Muslim country:
The terms should include (among other terms) the following:
- Lay down your arms, by disbanding your army and police.
- Hand over all weapons to the allied forces at the borders.
- Give up Islam as your religion, and the Quran as your religious book and the Shariah as your lawbook; or else face more Hiroshimas.
- Demolish all your Mosques and Madrasas.
- Ban the use of Hijab, Chador, Burkha by females.
- Ban the wearing of religious caps and growing of beards (a la Ataturk) by males.
- Accept any one of the non-Muslim religions.
- Agree to establish parliamentary democracy and secularism.
- Any non-compliance will lead to more Hiroshimas.
This way we can win the war on terror by sending a minimum number of marines into hostile territory and taking only a minimum number of casualties. This tactic would also have immense psychological impact on the terrorists, since in spite of the contempt they have for life, they would be under tremendous pressure from their co-religionists to stop targeting the civilized world, since many more Muslims would die in retaliation. Only this can work, since the Muslims fear nothing other than overwhelming force. The history of Islam for the last fourteen hundred years since Islam was founded, is evidence of this.
Act before the Nuclearization of Terrorism makes the War on Terror a Nightmare
But we need to act on this pretty fast, before the Jihadis acquire nuclear capability, making the nuclear option useless. And future Nuclear terror attacks makes 9/11 seem like a dress rehearsal. While the right focus is placed on the proliferation of nuclear capability in Iran; not much attention is being paid to Pakistan. Today Pakistan has 30 nuclear warheads. If we wait for a few years, then this number will grow to 200 warheads and they would be dispersed in different countries in different hands, some of these hands would belong to the Al Qaeda. The Al Qaeda-Pakistan Army connection is not just a bogey. It is real. Some serving officers have been detained for having passed on critical information to the Al Qaeda. We also need to remember that when Musharraf was in the US, General Aziz, Gen Musharraf’s right hand man who brought him to power, had said that “America is Islam’s enemy number one.”
So we need to urgently and decisively act against all nuclear aspiring Muslim states, especially the only Muslim Nuclear power which has aggressively named its Atom bomb the Islamic Bomb – Pakistan. Unless we act before the Nuclearization of Terrorism makes the War on Terror a Nightmare, we shall unfortunately have to confront Jihadis having nuclear arms and have only the following two dead-end options:
- be prepared to either end up destroying all life on this globe fighting the Jihadis to death;
- or surrender to the Jihadis and accept Islam as the religion for the entire world!
Yes, we are well aware that our Hiroshima option suggestion will be censored by those many blind-to-reality liberals and those hand-in-glove friends of the Jihadis those defeated communists and discredited left-leaning liberals of the Noam Chomsky clan. But we can bypass their objections and set our determination to go about winning the war on terror with such daring non-conventional means – since we face a non-conventional enemy. Only such smartness and iron-will can break the Jihadis and the Islamic faith that represents their world view which is today shared by one billion and a half humans. The other option is a Vietnam all over the places we go – Afghanistan, Iraq, followed by Syria, Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia with an endless stream of body bags coming home and a clamor to end the war, with a prospect of losing the war on terror to a beastly enemy signaling the end of human progress and civilization.
Our current policy of sending in ground troops and policing the Muslim countries like Afghanistan and Iraq, once we have subdued the established governments, is fast proving to be a failure. The Jihadi snipers can pick our marines one by one at ease and bleed us as they are doing in Iraq and Afghanistan. While we foolishly spend billions of dollars in reconstruction of these countries in an effort to win their hearts and minds. Such reconstruction is meaningless since their hearts and minds are anyway turned against us in a civilizational divide that goes back to the foundation of Islam where for them, we are unbelievers and infidels who should be converted to Islam by force or be killed or be humiliated to be treated as dhimmis (second class citizens). The Jihadis care two hoots for reconstruction of Iraq or Afghanistan, in fact they want to disrupt this reconstruction effort and make a laughing stock out of us. The number of Muslims who support us is negligible, and they too are scared to death to openly support us. Till the beastly mentality of Islam is not eradicated, it is futile for us to spend money to reconstruct these countries. It is also futile to establish democracy and secularism in these countries till the temperamental core of these countries remains Islamic. The paranoid submission to religion that Islam demands alongwith the call of Jihad to convert the world to Islam, goes against the spirit of both democracy and secularism. The countries of the Muslim world that we overrun are not Germany or Japan after World War 2. The populations of the Muslim countries hate us in a civilizational divide dating back to the foundation of Islam. This was not so in the case of Germany or Japan.
We need to first. break the stranglehold of Islam on the minds of these people and this calls for iron-clad measures. Only after we are able to break Islam, can we start the reconstruction of the post Islamic ex-Muslim countries. Till then the smart thing would be withdraw our troops from Afghanistan and Iraq and not send any more in the Islamic crescent. And to give Iraq and Afghanistan followed by other Islamic countries the Hiroshima treatment, one after the other, till they either give up Islam or perish.
Safeguarding our rear by neutralizing the enemy within
But before we begin such action globally, we need to safeguard our rear, in our homeland. For this we need to take into preventive custody all those whose loyalties as Americans are suspect. All Americans of middle-eastern origin and all tourists and students of Arab and Muslim extraction, including all Arab and Muslims in our military, should be relocated into reserves to be kept out of harms way (i.e. to keep them from harming us). We know that this suggestion will draw explosive reactions, but we cannot fight a war with half-hearted measures. The enemy we have living amidst us today in the War on Terror is far unlike the Japanese Americans or German Americans or those locally bred Nazis of World War 2 vintage. The enemy living amidst us today is really malignant and malicious. Only with our rear safeguarded we can rest assured that we will not be stabbed in our back in our homeland with our bridges blown off, railroads messed around and subway stations gassed, while we pursue the war on terror across the globe. No amount of pacification and appeasement by declaring that “Islam is a religion of peace” and by visiting Mosques will help us in protecting our rear and flanks, when we start sending broadsides to hit our enemy’s jugular in the final struggle. Hence these iron-clad measures need to be taken before we start the final struggle. There are no soft options if we are to win against a beastly enemy. Please ponder upon this unorthodox but honest advice, Mr. President.
Yours Sincerely
- Robin MacArthur
On behalf of the Team of Webmasters
http://www.newsonterror.com
P.S. : Looks like what we have recommended here has struck a responsive chord at the Pentagon. Recently an analysis of US war policy criticized a proposed Pentagon plan to use low potency nukes on enemy targets. Although the article is critical of the direction US policy is taking. We are heartened to note that the policy finally shows some sense in recognizing how a beastly enemy can be overcome.
the bluff of Islam needs to be called. And it can be called only when Islam and all its believers face the threat and real prospect of being sent into the stillness of death. A stillness from where they could do no more harm to anyone else. In this scenario at times some innocents may get killed. Can’t help it when the scenario dictates that you either “kill or be killed”.
Those who want succeed in fighting the Jihad, have to out-match the boldness and paranoid commitment of the Muslims by declaring that their singular mission is to wipe out Islam from the face of this planet whatever that may cost in terms of human lives
And in this war, temporary setbacks to the Muslim Jihadis, like those in Afghanistan and Iraq serve no purpose, except for making them more wild and more willing to die while killing others. They are like man-eater tigers whom we Americans are merely wounding, but not hunting down. A hurt tiger is even more ferocious. So are the Jihadis. The point is to hunt down the Jihadis, so that they are dead meat, and so can harm no one any longer. They cannot be won over, their hearts cannot be won over. The only way into the heart of a Jihadi is to put a bullet into it! Till we Americans realize this bitter truth, we cannot win the war on terror.
We need to remember that the Muslims are audacious, they are paranoid, they are reckless, they don’t fear death, they seek it and welcome it, but only if they can kill others while killing themselves. They celebrate their own death and of their enemies, they rejoice at their enemy’s death and dance over their corpses. Islam is a psychological disorder from which one billion humans on this planet suffer. And so we need a doctor to perform the surgery to cut of this cancerous cyst of Islam from the body of global human society, or else the Human species will not survive as a civilized species.
The only way to defeat Islam is for its adversaries to outmatch the fanaticism, the audacity, the recklessness and the lust to kill that the Muslims have. Only a world leader who openly declares that it is his/her aim to destroy Islam worldwide by using thermonuclear weapons, can possibly strike terror in the minds (of the heartless) Muslims. Only he/she can defeat the Muslims, and deliver the human species from the paranoia of Islam. Yes, in Europe, there have been such leaders who came closest to defeating Islam. Leaders like Karl the Hammer who slaughtered two hundred thousand Muslim Arabs troops on the battlefield of Tours (Poitiers) 200 Kms. south of Paris, ending their Jihad in Western Europe in 732 C.E. and saved Europe from Islam. In Asia, there was Hulagu Khan who in 1238 sacked and burnt Baghdad to the ground after killing the Caliph alongwith the entire population of Baghdad, by putting the city to torch, bringing an end to the Islamic Caliphate. In normal times such persons cannot be role models for a civilized person, but these are abnormal times and do if we are to succeed in our mission to save Human civilization from the challenge of Islam, we need to destroy Islam, and for that unfortunately, we need to emulate Hulagu and Karl the Hammer (Charles Martel). In fact we need better their record by being even more efficient in the task, that they set about doing – since today our focus is global.
Yes this sounds morbid, but the alternative is our own destruction and the eclipse if not demise of Human civilization at the hands of the Muslims. For achieving this a determination to vaporize all forms of life across the Islamic crescent from Morocco to Indonesia is unavoidable. Not that one billion Muslims will have to be actually put to death (hopefully not), but only if such determination exists and is openly displayed, can we bring any sense into the minds of those of our species who operate at a beastly level. So we agree with our President George Bush when he says “we’ll hunt down” our enemies. If the enemy is a beast, then to save yourself you gotta be a hunter!
And unfortunately, if the Muslims persist in being paranoid killers that they have been for the last One Thousand and Four Hundred years since Islam was founded by the world’s most successful terrorist and the founding father of organized terrorism, the prophet Mohammed-ibn-Abdallah, then for the benefit of the rest of humankind, this determination would have to be acted upon up to its gory end. Our guess (and hope) is that once the Muslims see the determination in the rest of the world to destroy Islam whatever it has to cost in terms of human lives, can they sue for peace. And if they don’t, they will have to be sent into the stillness of death, so that the human species can once again pick up the journey towards building human civilization, in the post-Islamic phase of Human History.
We are told over and over again that the Muslims love death while killing others; and that they celebrate martyrdom while putting others to death. Great! Now it is high time for the rest of us to come together so that this death-seeking and death-glorifying bluff of Islam can be called by declaring that we intend to give martyrdom to all Muslims all over the globe. Islam that was born by the sword can go away only by the sword. Let’s see if all of them choose death or at least some of them choose to come to their senses. Either way the world stands to gain. We need to give them this hard choice if we are to succeed in meeting the Muslim challenge to Human Civilization.
No wonder till people on this planet consider such an Instruction Manual of Terrorism to be the inviolable word of some god, we shall see people who are not just willing to kill, but wanting to kill those who do not conform to their world view. They can be stopped only if they are brainwashed out of this delusion or are stopped by some, rather ANY other means- as long as they are stopped. Any ideas on how to stop them from their perverted business of killing?

Now let's roll with Western Private Militias against the Terrorists...or should we??
We have had enough with the beheadings of Western Professionals who are in Iraq to help re-build that country. The beheadings of Armstrong and Hensley and many others like Berg, Pearl in the past is a harbinger of worse things to come in the Middle East. All American professionals, diplomats and marines are in danger of being hacked one after the other and all of them need to go on the offensive. The question is HOW?
There are thousands of Western professionals scattered all across the Middle East. In the given circumstances, we have two options. To cut and run, or take the war into the enemy camp. The time has come to think and act on unorthodox lines. Can we suggest that Western and more so American professionals should team up with US marines, diplomats and CIA operatives located across the globe and form informal secretive partisan cells to share technology selectively to cause napalm and scaled neutron explosions in the most notorious mosques across the globe during Friday prayers when most of the terrorists gather to listen to the incitement of the Mullahs? Can we suggest this?? Can we say that we need to get them when they are at the game of inciting and getting incited.
Can we say that in New York good targets to begin with are the Jersey City Mosque at 539 Bergen Avenue, the Islamic Center of Asbury Park at 209 Bond Street, the American Islamic Academy at 110 Harrison Street, Boonton, and the Masjid Al Haqq at 689 Springfield Avenue, Newark. And in London we can start with the Finsbury Park mosque of the notorious Muslim cleric Abu Hamza, the Brixton Mosque in south London whose imam Abdullah el-Faisal, was convicted of soliciting murder and three charges involving stirring up racial hatred. No way! So can we suggest that blowing up Muslim marchers in Western cities and also the peaceniks is also a good idea, can we ever suggest this?? No way. NEVER!
Can we suggest that it would be superb if our private militias succeed in blowing up the nuclear facilities at Natanz and Bushehr by teaming up with the Iranian student movement who are dead opposed to the Mullahs who are in the last stages of making an A-bomb.
We say this in desperation as we have so far have proved to be ineffectual in understanding the ghoulish aims of the enemies of civilization. We need to team up with Israelis, Serbs, and all others who have had experience with fighting Muslims in an unorthodox way and carry the war into the enemy camp. Can we dare to say that sympathetic officers in CIA, the Scotland Yard and Mossad can help out. In fact they can take the initiative in this, other volunteers would join in later. Can we suggest this?? No way! Can we say that private volunteers joining in would have to be fiercely committed to this cause and method. Can we suggest this?? No way! Can we say that they would need to be thoroughly screened and tested out for their will power before they can be deployed. Can we suggest this?? No way! Can we say that this is no game for the faint-hearted and lily-livered.
Can we suggest this?? No way! Can we say that we need to come up with ideas and deploy unorthodox methods that can work in taking the war into the enemy's camp and put the fear of death in them too. NO WAY!
Can we ever say all this even in our dreams, NO WAY, WE CAN NEVER EVER SAY ANYTHING EVEN HALF AS DEADLY.But the fact is that what we have seen from 9/11/2001 till today is a "Phoney War" like the one we saw in 1939 and 1940, till the Nazis turned the Maginot Line and invaded France via Belgium and Netherlands. After all we know that appeasing the enemy will win us the war as it did World War 2, or did it?? Was the war won by the pamphlets that we threw to the Boches (the German rookies) manning the Seigfried Line, calling on them to stop fighting and make peace with the allies? Or did the D Day landing followed by our relentless march through France, Belgium into Germany culminating with the bombing of Dresden, win us the war?
Today we cannot as private citizens take the law into our hands. We need to wait till the necessary wisdom dawns on our leaders. Till then can we at least picket the mosques mentioned here (and others) on every Friday and tell the Muslims that we want them to ask their co-religionists to stop what they are doing. Ask them to stop their co-religionists from beheading us, after all we have better uses for our heads rather than providing them to the Islamofascists as targets to be sawed off, and then posting those gruesome videos on the internet. Let us do the least to take the message home to the world at large that we are annoyed, very annoyed at the beheadings.
Its answer is, "Unfortunately, it could - and many experts believe that such an attack, somewhere, is likely." The Aspen Strategy Group, a bipartisan assortment of policy experts, focused on nuclear risks at its annual meeting in New York recently, and the consensus was twofold: the danger of nuclear terrorism is much greater than the public believes.
According to the CIA, the weapon had supposedly been stolen from Russia, which indeed has many 10-kiloton weapons. Russia is reported to have lost some of its nuclear materials, and Al Qaeda has mounted a determined effort to get or make such a weapon. And the C.I.A. had picked up Al Qaeda chatter immediately after 9/11, about an "American Hiroshima."
President Bush dispatched nuclear experts to New York to search for the weapon and sent Dick Cheney and other officials out of town to ensure the continuity of government in case a weapon exploded in Washington instead. But to avoid panic, the White House told no one in New York City, not even Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
In addition to Dragonfire's report, similar reports - that Al Qaeda has its hands on a nuclear weapon from the former Soviet Union - have regularly surfaced in the intelligence community, even though such a report has never been confirmed. We do know several troubling things: Al Qaeda negotiated for a $1.5 million purchase of uranium (apparently of South African origin) from a retired Sudanese cabinet minister; its envoys traveled repeatedly to Central Asia to buy weapons-grade nuclear materials; and Osama bin Laden's top deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri, boasted, "We sent our people to Moscow, to Tashkent, to other Central Asian states, and they negotiated, and we purchased some suitcase [nuclear] bombs."
William Perry, the former American Secretary of Defense, says there is an even chance of a nuclear terror strike on America in the near future. "We're racing toward unprecedented catastrophe," Mr. Perry warns. "This is preventable, but we're not doing the things that could prevent it." The White House has insisted on tackling the most peripheral elements of the W.M.D. threat, like Iraq, while largely ignoring the central threat, nuclear proliferation. The upshot is that the risk that a nuclear explosion will devastate an American city is greater now than it was during the cold war, and it's growing.
The question now is how do we prevent an attack. And even if succeed in preventing the first attempt, how do we ensure that the attempt will not be repeated, as it surely will be. The enemy we face is a determined one. It made the first attempt at blowing up the WTC in 1993, and when that attempt failed, it tried once again at the same target, on 9/11, this time with success. If we succeed in thwarting the first attempt, that would be real good. But what next. Will the enemy stop in its tracks? No way. The enemy fights us as a matter of faith. Their Instruction Manual of Terror (the Quran) asks them to wage unrelenting war against us unbelievers in a endless global Jihad. 9/11/2001 is just the date on which the jihad made a Grande Entree into the American homeland. The Jihad had reached Europe much earlier and had been first turned back at the battle of Tours in Central France in 732 and later at Vienna in 1699. Failure for the Jihadis is just a blimp on their relentless march against us infidels. They will come back again, and again and again, till either we or they cease to exist. So our success in thwarting their first nuke attack, would mean only one thing, the enemy will strike again, only the time and place would be uncertain. How do we face up to this scenario. Our history tells us "One who pulls the trigger first, lives." So in this scenario, pulling the trigger first would mean:
We should give up our fixation that the aim of the war effort is to keep the oil flowing to our gas stations by securing the oilfields and the pipelines, nor should we be hamstrung by the fiction that we can win over our enemy the Muslims - all of whom consider the Quran to be the word of God and the Quran tells them to wage everlasting war on us. This would make our nominal allies like King Fadh, King Abudullah, Prez Mubarak also our enemies along with Saddam and Osama. Since all of them uphold the Quran and the Quran asks them to wage everlasting war on us. During World War 2, we Americans never tried to win over the Nazis. And the attempts by the British Prime Minister Chamberlain to appease the Nazis only made them more defiant and hold the Western allies in contempt. Only when we started to speak with them in language of carpet bombs and land assaults did the Nazi threat come to an end. We need to do the same with our enemy of today - the Muslims. Bring an end to all of them. This will sound an over-simplification to most readers. But think about it. How many Muslims want a rapprochement with us and want to share a milti-cultural world? How many of them allow multi-ethnic and multi-religious societies to exist, how many of their countries are democracies, how many of them are pacifists, how many of them want to use science and technology for the general benefit of humankind? This is a measure of how low the Muslims are on the scale of being human. As against all this, how many of them hold a grudge against us and do not condemn the 9/11 attacks? How many of them defend the 9/11 attacks by saying that there are roots causes for the attacks and that we are to blame for these root causes like not allowing the Arabs to destroy Israel? How many of them take to the streets to trample on the Stars and Stripes? How many of them cry "Death to America"? How many of them burn effigies of our President? And how many of them are plotting in sleeping cells to launch the next Jihadi Bloodbath against us? This is a barometer of their hatred for us. The only reason why they have not yet harmed us the way they would like to is that their hatred for us is not matched by their capability to harm and destroy us. That is our only saving grace. This is why all of them have not yet taken up arms against us. Once they have the capability, there will be nothing to stop them from destroying us, since they already have the will to destroy us, as sanctioned by their Quran. So what option do we have in this scenario. And how do go about saving ourselves from destruction at the hands of those who are straining on their leash to devour us? Only a leader who can be the destroyer of Islam and the killer of all Muslims can be a savior of humankind. And this leader will have to go about a strategy that would have the following broad outline for its success with minimal loss of American lives: Today's strategy of sending in ground troops leads to many American casualties and fatalities; and after winning a conventional war against the enemy, tying down our troops to re-build their countries is foolish and only strengthens the enemy and leads to an unending list of casualties by sniper fire, roadside bombs and suicide bombers. So we need to make our present strategy stand on its head by doing the following:
- Withdraw all American business persons, professionals and all other non-combatant personnel from all Muslim countries. - Next, withdraw all American diplomatic and consular staff who need to be retained in the first stage for processing the papers of all other non-combatants who leave. - At the next stage withdraw all American defense personnel and infrastructure, destroying that infrastructure that cannot be relocated. - Stop the immigration of Muslims into America, expelling all those who are here on a H1 and L1 visas (Students and Professionals). - Those Muslims who are American citizens or Green Card holders and who cannot be deported, should all be taken into preventive custody, and held in detention camps as we held the much less dangerous Japanese Americans during WW2.
Needless to add that the present Presidential system and the existing legal framework would have to be suitably changed to accommodate these measures. We are living in conditions of war and peacetime laws cannot meet the situation we face today Once this is done the second phase of the strategy can begin with a pre-emptive missile assault on enemy targets (of all Muslims nations, starting from the most belligerent) to take out their nuclear and conventional military capability, telecommunications infrastructure, transportation infrastructure, going down to civilian targets as the operations progress. The primary condition for stopping our military operations has to be a complete and permanent repudiation of Islam by all Muslims. Failing which an attack that would begin with MOABs and Daisy Cutters should progress to using Nuclear Hydrogen and Neutron payloads on the missiles that would land on enemy territory. We need not have qualms while doing this, since the enemy would do this to us if and when he can. The only thing that stops him from doing this today is that he does not have the capability to match his will to destroy us. And the cherry on the pie lies in the very curious fact the destruction of Islam has been foretold in the Quran itself which says: "There will come a day when there will be no one on earth to say; 'Lah Allah il Allah Mohammed Ur Rasoolallah' ('There is no god but allah and mohammed is his prophet')." Needless to tell you that if the inhuman and subhuman creed of Islam is not brought to a complete and permanent end, human civilization has no future. The devilish creed of Islam has to be checkmated, reversed and rolled back to Mecca and buried into the stillness of death from where it will never ever arise to torment humankind again. It is up to America to deliver humankind from the threat of Islam by saving itself and saving the rest of humanity from doom. Can the US rise to the occasion before it is too late?

Under what circumstances can the USA lose the War on Terror to the Jihadis A crazy question any reader would say. The USA, the strongest power on earth, losing to a bunch of disorganized, although highly motivated thugs! Hah! Impossible! But before we endorse this obvious judgment, let us for a minute take a look at how the Jihadis have made true their word on impending attacks. In 1993, after the abortive first attempt on the WTC, one of the terrorists Ramzi Yousef said to his captors that next time around the WTC would not survive a Jihadi attack. And so it did happen that on 9/11/2001, the WTC did crumble in face of the second Jihadi attack! Another instance is the Madrid Train bombings. The Spanish Govt had been given due warnings by the terrorists. In October 2003, five months before the Madrid train bombings, assassins shot a Spanish military attache in Iraq, Jose Antonio Bernal Gomez, near his residence; in November, seven Spanish intelligence agents were ambushed and murdered south of Baghdad. Photographs of the killers standing on the agents' bodies circulated on Islamist Web sites. Another Internet document soon appeared, titled 'Message to the Spanish People,' signed by the Information Commission for the Help of the Iraqi People (Department of Foreign Propaganda), which threatened more attacks. 'Return to your country and live peacefully,' it demands, or else 'the battalions of the Iraqi resistance and its supporters outside of Iraq are able to increase the dosage and will eclipse your memory of the rotten spies.' True to their word the Jihadis carried out the Madrid train bombings five months later. Even in history, the Jihadis back in the 7th century when they started the Jihad had challenged and openly threatened empires far stronger then the fledging Jihadi forces. Empires like the Persia and Byzantine. The Jihadis overcame both of these through daring attacks. While Persia fell in seventeen years from 634 to 651, Byzantine fell after eight centuries from the first attacks on it at Yarmuk in 637 to the fall of Constantinople in 1453. The reason for this delay was holding of the Jihadis at the Cilician Gates in southern Asia Minor (Turkey) up to the 10th century and later the intervention of the Crusades. But in spite of this Byzantine also fell to the Jihadis, who after that reached Vienna in the 17th century. What is the lesson from all these ancient happenings in the 21st century? One may say all this is irrelevant. The USA is the sole Superpower today and can destroy the world seven times over. Oh yes it can, but what if Jihadis get hold of enough nuclear ammo to blow all State Capitals in the USA simultaneously along with all capital cities in Europe? A preposterous scenario, you would say! Oh yes, it does sounds preposterous even to the authors of this piece. But then we have poured over the history of military tactics of the Jihadis over the last fourteen centuries which have been made more supple, stealthy and surreptitious in the 21st century by the, miniaturization of nuclear technology (suitcase bombs) facilitated by globalization of banking networks that make money laundering easy to finance these nefarious operations and the easy availability of nuclear building blocks from the remnants of the former Soviet Union. Before we could dismiss the Jihadis boast that they would soon speak the Language of Blood with Europe and USA we need to very seriously consider their advise to the Muslim citizens of Europe and USA to return to Muslim countries to save themselves from attacks that would make 9/11 eclipse from memory. This certainly is no empty boast, given the track record of the Jihadis and it points in the direction of a devastating surprise in store for us in the West. 9/11 was a trailer of the attacks to come and in spite of Homeland security and the new Intelligence Super-Czar that the President is to create in light of the 9/11 Commission's Report, we are ill-prepared to face the next Jihadi blood bath. All indications point to a devastatingly large and geographically spread out attack that would be carried out in Europe and the USA by the thousands of sleeper cells that are quietly preparing to unleash their murderous designs on us. We need not be deceived once again by the fact that American citizens of Middle-Eastern origin, have merged perfectly into American society. We need only to remember that the 9/11 hijackers had families on whom they doted, were members of health clubs, visited pubs and night clubs and nobody could ever raise even half an eyebrow to suspect what they were about to do. If we today continue to live in a fool's paradise about the innocuousness of Arab 'Americans, then we would be inviting a calamity on ourselves. A nuclear 9/11 would burst on us any day. The only difference would be that it would happen simultaneously in all major American cities (and perhaps European Cities as well) . Unless of course if we rise to the occasion, put all Arab-Americans of Muslim extraction under observation in reserves (as we did with the much less dangerous Japanese-Americans in WW2), and launch a pre-emptive strike against all Muslim nations. Is that too much to ask to save ourselves from annihilation?
Had Ronald Reagan been President on 9/11, the history of the War on Terror would have been different. In our view, within 24 hours of 9/11, the cities of Kandhar and Kabul would have been reduced to radioactive wastelands by Ronald Reagan, or even we guess by Bill Clinton. That would have been a fitting punishment for the Jihadis and their one billion and a half silent supporters, their co-religionists. But rather than doing this, immediately after 9/11 Dubya visited Mosques and declared "Islam is a religion of peace" (sic). What signals did that convey to the Jihadis - that the USA is scared of them and that they can re-enact another 9/11 using WMDs without risking devastating and immediate retaliation from the USA. The democratic Presidential nominee John F Kerry or JFK for short has not yet made the mistake of declaring that "Islam is a religion of peace". We hope that if he is becomes the next occupant of the Oval Office, he goes back to the policy of crashing Cruise missiles into terrorist bases and cities, but this time with nuclear payloads. We for one, till now, favored George Bush, but are now wondering if JFK would in fact be a better option for a more resolute continuation of the war on terror.

Can Western Democracies win the War on Terror This question came to mind when we heard President Bush apologizing for the actions of the American wardens at the Abu Ghraib prison. Surprisingly, even the iron man Donald Rumsfeld was apologetic. The USA cannot be led by such attitudes. Decisive and ruthless commitment won us the War of Independence, the Civil War and World War 2 – symbolized by Hiroshima. It was with this decisive ruthlessness that the Wild West was tamed taking our frontiers from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Pusillanimity is not going to take us anywhere in the war on terror, especially at a time when the Jihadis are poised to launch a nuclear attack on us. The Black Dawn exercise at Brussels simulating a post nuclear attack scenario is only a harbinger of the state of things to come in real life, someday. At such a juncture we need a single-minded handling of any situation. We are in the midst of a war of a type that mankind has never seen before. In this war either it will be complete victory for Western civilization or a return to an endless Dark Age under the victorious Muslims. In this context, the diffident behavior of Bush and Rummy bring to mind the question raised by none less than General Tommy Franks that if the United States is hit with a weapon of mass destruction that inflicts large casualties, the Constitution will likely be discarded in favor of a military form of government. We are not wanting to sound alarmist. But there have been events in history where the Muslims have defeated armies and nations that were far more powerful than them. It happened with the defeat of the (pre-Islamic) Meccans at the Battle of Badr by a handful of Muslims from Yathrib (the pre-islamic name for Medina), and again with the defeat of the Christian Byzantines at the Battle of Yarmuk by the Muslim Arabs in 636 and yet again with the defeat of the Persians at Qadisiya by the Muslims in 637. These victories opened up North Africa, Europe and Asia to the Muslim hordes. What has driven smaller compact Muslim armies to victory over their larger and ponderous adversaries is their cruelty without compunction or compassion, and a fanatical rather bloodthirsty zeal to vanquish their enemy. All of this was pitted against adversaries who followed the rules of war, respect for sparing the lives of non-combatants, and a general humane approach even during warfare. This led to a string of defeats of the Byzantines, Persians, Visigoths, Chinese, Hindus and Berbers at the hands of the invading Muslims. And now we see history repeating itself, with the apologetic American (and British) response to the Abu Ghraib events. We have started having serious doubts whether we have the right form of Govt that can deliver us victory in the War against a beastly enemy. The time is fast arriving, when we need to ask ourselves; Can Western Democracies win us the War on Terror? A question that has also been posed by none less than General Tommy Franks The usually camera-shy Franks retired from U.S. Central Command, known in Pentagon lingo as CentCom, in August 2003, after serving nearly four decades in the Army. Franks earned three Purple Hearts for combat wounds and three Bronze Stars for valor. Known as a “soldier’s general,” Franks made his mark as a top commander during the U.S.’ successful Operation Desert Storm, which liberated Kuwait in 1991. He was in charge of CentCom when Osama bin Laden’s al-Qaeda attacked the United States on Sept. 11. Franks is the first high-ranking official to openly speculate that the Constitution could be scrapped in favor of a military form of government. Discussing the possible dangers posed to the U.S., Franks said that “the worst thing that could happen” is if terrorists acquire and then use a biological, chemical or nuclear weapon that inflicts heavy casualties. If that happens, Franks said, “... the Western world, the free world, loses what it cherishes most, and that is freedom and liberty we’ve seen for a couple of hundred years in this grand experiment that we call democracy.” Franks then offered “in a practical sense” what he thinks would happen in the aftermath of such an attack. “It means the potential of a weapon of mass destruction and a terrorist, massive, casualty-producing event somewhere in the Western world – it may be in the United States of America – that causes our population to question our own Constitution and to begin to militarize our country in order to avoid a repeat of another mass, casualty-producing event. Which in fact, then begins to unravel the fabric of our Constitution. Two steps, very, very important.” Franks didn’t speculate about how soon such an event might take place. So the point now is do we wait for doomsday to strike us or do we take pre-emptive measures and suspend the niceties of peacetime laws of human rights for wholesale murderers like the Jihadis, civil liberties for criminals convicted in the war on terror and lodged at prison camps like Camp X-Ray (Gitmo Bay) and Abu Ghraib? In a war situation, a federal emergency needs to be declared suspending all peacetime laws and a new war-driven constitution needs to be brought into effect. The alternative is defeat and a travesty of all times, at a cost that humankind can ill afford to pay – a Muslim victory over Western Civilization. AMEN!

Moderchai Vanunu - the modern-day Judas Vanunu, the Israeli nuclear technician who betrayed Israeli nuclear secrets to outsiders, wants Israel to give up its nukes, he wants UN to send inspectors to Dimona? Why Israel? Has Israel used its nukes on anyone else (in spite of sufficient reason to do so in 1971). Has there been a Chernobyl in Israel? Has Israel been immune to terrorists attacks, which may someday turn nuclear if the Al Qaeda and Hamas get their hands on dirty nukes or suitcase nukes? Vanunu (Yossi Beilin and many traitors like them who infest the Israeli Labor Party and the Shalom Achshav - Peace Now - movement) need to be behind bars for endangering the security of Israel. Vanunu should thank his stars that he is an Israeli, so that today he can walk free in Tel Aviv. Had he been an Iraqi under Saddam, his family would be laying flowers at his grave.

'I Hereby Offer Europe a Peace Treaty' - Osama Bin Laden’s first Hudna aiming at a European surrender to Islam
"The door of peace will remain open for three months from the broadcast of this statement. Whoever rejects the peace and wants war should know that we are the men of war, and whoever wants a peace treaty and signs it, we hereby allow this peace treaty with him. - Osama Bin Laden In the text, what needs to be noted is Osama’s boast that “we are the men of war”. We need to realize that men of war never seek peace, they always seek war. And only if they are unable t
