The world is not a safe place at the moment...

I think Charles Krauthammer said it best. The current US President vowing to bring the guy who beheaded the Americans to justice is tantamount to FDR vowing to bring the Japanese pilots who bombed Pearl Harbor to justice.

I am not sure our current president really understands that these are not criminal justice infringements, but, rather acts of war against the US. ISIS, and the rest of the islamic radicals, are at war with us, whether or not we are at war with them. I know our current president (it irks me to mention his name) is the president that ends wars, but, unfortunately, history has dealt him a different hand, whether he wants it or not. I suspect he is purposely doing a slow, plodding strategy that really goes no where, and that will last another two years, just in the nick of time to get him out of office, and let the next guy deal with it. I don't think he is really serious about decimating ISIS.

How about we let these fanatics win some more terrain on us... And in ten years you'll only have girls in burka's on your boats... Because sharia law dictates so...
Funny? Science fiction? But, when you realize that we have whole neigborhoods in various European cities and villages, that are already "caliphates", where neither police nor any other authority has anything to say, it really isn't that funny anymore nor science fiction...

I for one am not letting our freedom, where our forfathers fought so hard for, get washed down the drain. I for one will pick up my weapons and stand on the frontline, so you can all continue to go boating and skiing when ever you please, have a beer whenever you please, have girls in bikini's on your sandbar parties, buy the car you want, wear the clothes that you want and so on...

We all need to stand tall, just like Krisof.

It is WWIII, no doubt.

Sometimes when I'm walking around my yard barefoot, I'll get an ant bite. My typical reaction is to head to the man shed to grab a bag of ant killer. When I return to the antbed, I treat the entire mound because it just isn't practical to go after the one or two that caused me pain. I usually follow up by walking around the yard and treating any other mound that I see as I don't want my wife and children to have to deal with them.

Now the overwhelming majority of these ants did nothing to me. They were perfectly content to caravan around carrying 8 times their body weight in crumbs,dig new tunnels, etc., but they are incapable of policing their own so I do what I need to do.

I'd like to think that Muslims are more capable of policing their own than the ants that bite me between the toes. I think the only way to combat this is to enter these countries that are muslim dominated and causing ISIS type trouble...syria, iraq, iran. Enter them with the shock and awe bombs that we've spent trillions of tax dollars to develop. Make no apologies and explain that if that wicked nonsense continues, there will be more bombs.

Civilians will die, just as they did in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but casualties will be unavoidable and necessary to kill of the responsible ants/muslims. Someone asked earlier if genocide was justified to prevent genocide. The muslims are the people who are perpetrating this genocide, so our response is a direct result of their aggressive actions. I would guess that if we unleashed the horror that was unleashed on Japan that the "peace loving" muslims might stand up with surrender flags and make some real efforts to distinguish themselves from the "few" radical muslims that are behind all of this.   Who knows, maybe they'd even pitch in to help root the bad guys out.

Either way, I want to keep that mayhem in the desert and away from here.

Sorry if the post offends, but as a country, we've danced around hurting anyone's feelings for decades and that's one reason we're in this mess.

where's my ant poison?

Agreed sir. Doing business in China and Japan you are expected to respect the values and customs of the country you are entering or you won't end up doing business with their companies.

Everyone is just too scared to offend anyone these days by the expectations setup by the liberal way of looking at political correctness and it could cost us.

Islamic people are very offended by women not wearing customary clothing as we should be very offended by Islamic women in our country wearing their customary clothing based on the activities of radical groups associated with their religion.

Islamic people have no reason to be offended by American women not wearing their traditional clothing other than that it isn't their standard. Our religion (or general way of life until recently) doesn't project a harmful demeanor towards people of that race or religion.

We on the other hand do because of the radical actions and overall hatred of their religion towards the civilized western culture.

    kristof,

      You can stand shoulder to shoulder with me.

Time to revive this topic...

Attacks in France... Complete insanity!

ABC News

I agree with you to a certain level Zach.
But should the media belittle it and report it as a "fait divers"?

Here in Belgium, people do not have a clue what's going on and go about their every day business with their heads stuck up their a**es.

Our Defence budget has been reduced yet again, because the average Belgian considers an army as 'not necessary in these modern times' and 'too expensive'... NATO considers us as the bad student in the class, because at this rate, we will not be able anymore to fulfill our missions as a NATO partner.
And what most of my countrymen do not realize: the enemy IS at the gates (to quote the title of a movie).

Reason why I mention this, is because this is the mentality over here. And because of this mentality of 'political correctness', 'tolerance', 'multi-cultural thinking' and what not, we created the mess we are in now. And if we have no 'soldiers' to defend our freedom (that so many of us take for granted) anymore, then who will?

Kristof, I hope all is well with you!

Oh and BTW, this is not the first attack our national intelligence foiled... Quite a few more that did not get mentionned in the press.

Due to my current job in the Belgian army, I have some more insights on Intel Ops (still low level mind you) than the average civilian

Have been wondering what you have been up to during all this and if you were ok,stay safe_____

Good to hear from you Kristof, sounds like total chaos all around you.
How many more of this type of situation needs to happen before people start waking up, random killing of innocent people is so out of control in our world.
Be Safe Brother!!

It's an interesting way to wage war on a country and they must think we are suckers, (which we are!).

I've been thinking of Kristof as well. God Bless him. He's been worried about his country for a long time.
