#1 If the Grand Mufti isn't wearing his burnoose and turban, is he "in mufti"?

#2 divisio et imperio has generally been a smart strategy - some people in their rage would like to unite all our opponents and potential opponents.

#3 I wouldn't want to become my enemies, even if that *was* all that I had left. What would be the point?

#5 "In other news, a certain Fred Pruitt has been placed in charge of the impending de-Ba'athification of Iraq. When asked what methods he would use, he replied, 'Mustachios and truncheons.'"

#6 What is not funny is the fact that an overwhelming majority of blog operators and posters, are slavish supporters of a President who forced Americans to take an unnecessary trillion dollar economic hit, while he begged Muslims leaders to enable him to conduct limited war against select Islamofascists. Afghanistan and Iraq? Big deal. Those problems should have been handled by 9-21. The solution - pre-911 and today - has always been to force the liquidation of the entire jihadi movement on a global scale. Any mosque - including the (un)Holy Mosque, in Mecca and the (phony) Prophet's Mosque, Medina - which issues genocidal khutbah and fatwah should be turned into rubble. There shouldn't be one living supporter of HAMAS, Hizbollah, al-Fatah, al-Qaeda, Islamic Jihad, Muslim Brotherhood, etc in America. If that means shooting on sight, every member of the Islamic Society of North America and the Muslim Students Association, then that has to be done. TO HELL WITH AN ACCOMODATING PEACE. WAR ON ISLAM TODAY!

#7 Great minds do think alike. On February 17, I nominated Glenn for Pasha of Baghdad. Of, course, I wanted to be Grand Mufti.

For some reason, right now, the browser wants to try to add the Rantburg URL to any a href, so I'll not put the direct link.

#8 Among the many problems with the 'death to all members of all terrorist groups' is that among the members are informers/agents/liaisons paid by the US, Israel, Egypt, etc. This reminds me of the saying, "to every problem there is a straight forward and simple solution that is also wrong".

#9 Reverse Jihadâ¢ is always an option, but I would categorize it as a last resort. We do not want to become our enemies, unless that is all we have left. We have to fight smarter then our enemies.
