#1 What other religion teaches hatred and violence?

#2 The religion of environmentalism teaches gate and violence.

#3 ..and socialism, which substitutes man for god. Pretty good on preaching coveting, bearing false witness, and stealing.

#4 "Don't expect this to last very long. There are too many Kardashians, not enough attention span."

That, plus the MSM is too committed to its lefty narrative of Muslims being the Officially Designated Poor Helpless Victims of American Aggression.

This war will not end until Arabic is spoken only in Hell.

#5 That is because they pee on their desks not under them!

#6 simply not true

a few reporters are commenting but almost every exec in news, almost every anchor, almost every newspaper columnist, almost every editor is still hanging on to the religion of peace mantra

#8 Dave D., we've had a lot of new Rantburgers in recent years, who therefore never saw your thinking on different approaches to dealing with the War on Terror, or rather in the jihadi menace. I would be grateful if one Sunday you would submit it as an original opinion piece.

I consider it the single most useful thing I have read on the subject, Richard Fernendez's "Conjectures" included,

#9 I simply don't believe the MSM has caught on to the Mooselimb menance. They are also the enemy.

#10 Exactly John. Nothing less than the propaganda arm of the party, and a quite effective one at that.

#11 What TW said, and can we get an updated Flight II Give-A-Damn Meter with that?

#12 Thanks, TW. That's awfully high praise, I hope I'm worthy of it...

Going back through my comments, I found this one from May of 2006; is that the one you were thinking of?

#13 That's not praise, Dave D, but my considered judgement on the subject. It was the pivot that changed my conceptual world.

Your link shows where you worked out the idea. It was the combination of comments 38 and 69 that ended up as a more polished version on your web page, but the link I had to that died some time ago.

Incidentally, on rereading that thread I find myself nodding my head and arguing with the posters once again, and then then when I came to 11A5S at #77 I had to stop for a moment. Because the worldwide craze for fracking is removing the power of petroleum from the Middle East right now, just as he predicted. The next stage of the War Against the Jihadis is going to be very different as a result.

#14 Dave D - that's quite the thread. I liked your #69.

And I do miss lotp.
