MAKE THAT QUINTINATIONAL:
These guys want to kill us anyway (Mark Steyn, 15mar04, The Australian)
"THE bombs dropped on Baghdad exploded in Madrid!" declared one "peace" protester in Spain. Or as Australian Federal Police Commissioner Mick Keelty put it, somewhat less vividly: "If this turns out to be Islamic extremists . . . it is more likely to be linked to the position that Spain and other allies took on issues such as Iraq."By "other allies", he means you – yes, you, reading this on the bus to work in Australia. You may not have supported the war, or ever voted for John Howard, but you're now a target. In other words, this is "blowback". This is what you get when you side with the swaggering Texas gunslinger and his neocon Zionist sidekicks.

Posted by: jsmith at March 14, 2004 8:19 PMIslamicism, or totalitarian Islam, is never going to achieve anything and will always leave Muslims so dissatisfied with their lives that they'll lash out at us. But it's different than the other isms--Communism and Nazism--in one vital regard,the underlying faith can be the basis for a healthy state.
Posted by: oj at March 14, 2004 9:00 PMNo it can't. It never has been, and it's had 1,400 years to try. Therefore, it cannot.
Posted by: Harry Eagar at March 15, 2004 10:01 PMWoohoo, but you believe in speciation?
