This is what we're facing

They're teaching kids to be suicide warriors (I know, that's already been known, it's also enough to make me yack)

http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/08/ ... index.html

a quote:

After a short drive we switched cars, and I cowered, motionless in the strange, new back seat. Soon I realized that there were children next to me, and men in the front seat.

A cassette blared a recitation of the Koran and every few minutes the nervous men would mutter "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar," as we drove through the darkness.

Then one of them said in Arabic, "What are you? What are you?"

A tiny voice next to me replied, "I'm a Mujahid," a holy warrior.

It was a boy -- I'd learn that his name was Ismael, and he was 5 years old. Just a child, already indoctrinated.

IMHO the only way this is going to get fixed is for the majority of peace loving Muslims to fix it internally.

Yup, I think so ... and what a long, long, long road that is

I say we bomb them and their friends a bit more. Nothing brings people back from the extreme end of "I want to kill you" like a bunch of bombs do.

// really, I don't care anymore just as long as they don't disrupt ski season.

The human race has a long and dishonorable tradition of throwing kids at the enemy. 14-15 year olds and old men defended Berlin at the end of WWII.

As the Pacific war was ending the Japanese were training kids to perform kamikaze missions.

Don't think anyone was under any illusions that end result was going to change except for the fact that alot of kids were also going to get killed.

Those are just two recent examples. There are more. Many more.

The Muslims aren't acting that differently.

Well if that's the case and history holds true to the two examples you've provided ... history shows that the Muslims are about to be defeated.

While I agree that it is sick, bear in mind that my young son just yesterday told me at different times that he was a: cricket, snake, squirrel, monster, and a fireman at varying times.

I like the premise, but that extrapolation is a bit of a stretch, I think.

Well ... seems like we have hope. Yeti made a good point

It's going to end badly. The only question is when.
