| #9 Jonah, Ledeen, a couple of others. NRO has neocons and paleocons, and their neocons tend to the rightwing end of "neocondom". WS is more purely neocon, and leans to the less rightwing end of neocondom, IMHO. |

| #8 I think NRO gives off a false positive on account of Jonah. |

| #7 Um, last time I checked, National Review isn't a neocon outfit. It's pretty much a straight-ticket middle-of-the-road conservative publication. I think they're thinking of the Weekly Standard. Not that the Weekly Standard is particularly harsh on Islam - that's one of the characteristics of neocons vs. regular conservatives - a certain squishiness on the whole "nuke Mecca flat" thing. |

| #6 CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad, unaware that he is no longer relevant spouted unintelligible diatribes while spittle dripped out of the side of his mouth. I think that CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad needs to turn his sensitivity meter down a bit and take a deep breath. They had hoped that Americans would backlash towards Arabs over 9/11 but sadly they were left with nothing to complain about except that maybe someone might accuse ALL Muslims of homicidal maniacs. I bet CAIR is still denying that Arabs and Muslims had nothing to do with 9/11 or international terrorism. F%[K them and the camel they rode in on! |

| #5 What are they going to do, boycott them? Only use Airbus planes in jihad operations? Hey, CAIR! Is it still okay for them to continue to build bombers? |

| #4 Nice parellel, DB! "You do something for me, I do something for you" is something they should understand very well. No reason not to do it, but somehow I think we'll just hear "...if Americans didn't do x y and z in the past, then there wouldn't be any terrorism..." or some other such evasion of responsibility for being the RoW. Religion of War=RoW. Wow, I never noticed before-it's an abbreviation for the British term 'row"-fight. :) |

| #3 Awad "respectfully" requested that Boeing "address the concerns of Muslims worldwide.." Their products are doing it everyday in Iraq and Afghanistan. Hope these folks are paying attention. |

| #2 Well, as soon as they get an apology from Muslims for using their products to plow into the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, I'd be all for pulling the ads..... |

| #1 Still not quite getting a grasp on that whole "freedom of the press" and "difference of opinion" thingy, are we, Nihad? |
