#1 The path around the bush is well beaten, but he just falls short of getting it. You won't get the sort of cooperation talked about - the threats are episodic, assymetrical, opportunistic. It's not a problem child or criminal - it's an implacable ideology of global dominion. Yeah, it's a big step. Yeah, it's hard. Yeah, it's for all the marbles. Almost there, but no joy.

#3 He's done pretty good:

Like spoiled brats they stomp their feet, hold their breath and make threats. They obviously believe Allah is too weak to defend himself, and that Mohammed is in need of their guns. Otherwise the violence and temper tantrums would not be there. Unlike other religions that pray for the unbelievers to have their eyes opened, and figure whatever god they serve can defend his own honor, while Islam has to do Allah's dirty work for him. Well, fine to believe that personally, but to try and enforce it with death and mayhem shows the contempt Islam has of other religions and cultures, as well as the propensity for violence as instilled into them by the writings of Islam.

But I agree he's not spot on:

To a Muslim there is no other way. If they truly held respect for Moses and Jesus, they could never hate the followers of those prophets with such intensity. So we see yet another Islamic smoke screen showing us that what they say is not how they truly believe.

They claim Moses and Jesus as Muslims, and declare that their followers have perverted "their true message", with the corrections given in the Koran. Not hypocrisy, just an accusation of apostasy to further justify their hate.

Where are the Muslims who claim they do not believe like this? They are silent as usual, with exception of a small press release here and about claiming different. They are not vowing death to Muslims who have defiled the name of Mohammed, or waging jihad against those who take the name of Allah in vain while cutting someones head off or torching their property. Which tells me that no matter what they tell me about Islam, their intention is no different than the others, just not as obvious.

And then this:

Europe did this with Christianity after the Protestants and Catholics went to war. They decreed that there would be no more religious wars and any offending nation would be dealt with severely. Why would it be unacceptable to do this with Islam?

Europe did no such thing. Instead, at Westphalia, all the kings agreed not to go to war with each other over religion. The Catholics had already won in South Europe and had lost in Northern Europe and England.

Finally, it can't be done given Oil dependence, which leads us to Dr. .com's 40x10 prescription.

#4 Place Mecca and Medina as the first strike targets, as well as outlawing anyone to practice Islam in the West.

Garsh, place Islam's shrines at risk over further terrorist attacks? What a novel concept!

Perhaps the world needs to step up very soon and begin taking action, by calling Islam what it really is to most of our nations. A treasonous organization bent on violence.

Bingo! Paging the Pentagon!
