#1 I've floated this idea before...and there were some really fascinating reasons given for not pulling the trigger...but they seemed to be specifically & distinctly American reasons for not assassinating al-Sdar. I hate to say this but Yassin was left on the stage for about 10 years too long to preach and propagate his version of hate.

I hope that the same mistake isn't made about al-Sdar. There is always the concern over who comes next, but no one could be worse. Mr. Sdar is our responsibility as Yassin was for Israel.

#5 These guys need to start seeing cause/effect principle. He need one of our "miracles from God" to launder his turban. They do respect power when it slaps them in the face. Esp kinetic metallic shapes travelling at Mach 3.

#8 If he who hates and calls 3000 slaughtered a miracle, and who no longer hates on this earth, but, instead hates in hell, having consigned himself there by that unrepentant hate; I say lets help him make his appointment with judgement

#10 We could turn that around, it was a Miracle from God, because God's hand is going to bring democracy to your world. It just took God's hand a little while to get going.

To me killing al-Sdar is a practical question. But, I am willing to argue it on moral, effects, historical or Psycho/Sociological grounds.

It is just an interesting Q.

As I wrote somewhere, hopefully not here, Kill McKinley and you get a vastly more powerful American through Teddy Roosevelt, kill Kennedy and you get a full blown Viet Nam War, kill Lincoln and you get a failed reconstruction... assassination works.

Also, as someone noted, kill Martin Luther King and you get both black power and the failure of Jesse Jackson.

But it is the linkage of God and bringing down the Twin Towers that I want to kill...it is not Sdar that is the problem...it is the idea and the birth of a mythic narrative in Muslim lands that I want to strangle in the cradle.

I don't care a wit about al-Sdar himself...it is the ideas in his head that I wish dead.

I know, I know, ideas are hard to kill. Well certainly, that's what wars are really all about...the predominance of one historical mythos, direction/thread/switch/fork-in-the-road over another.

I am just trying to find a way to short-circuit the looming next war before it happens.

Best Wishes,

#14 This from a cleric whose faith has just been freed from how many decades of vicious repression by those who endured the attacks he now extolls. Freedom of speech it might be, but a more profound ingratitude is impossible to imagine. Hundreds of our brave soldiers are dying in their forsaken cesspit of a country so that this bilious fuckwit can enjoy the liberty of condeming us and cheering about the 9-11 atrocity.

This maggot has the nerve to lead a crowd's chant of "No, no Israel! No, no to the Jews! No, no America! No, no to terrorism!" So, it's "No, no to terrorism" when it comes to offing a malignant murdering pig like Yassin, but slaughtering thousands of innocent people is just fine. This turd needs a few months in solitary confinement with hard labour and short rations for inciting violence against American soldiers.

I hope the next Kurdish car bomb is disguised as this rotting slime bag's fucking taxi, with the dynamite charge directly under al-Sadr's shriveled microscopic scrote. I want this shithead's putrescent vapours wafting into paradise on the next khamsin.
