#1 How about this:

"Islamofascists chose bad time to attack Americans, says American street"

#2 How about: "Islamists piss off America one too many times, says radioactive glow over Mecca"

#3 "It just solidifies the Arab conviction that Israel is running the show in the Middle East."

Boy, they have this fixation on Israel, don't they? These arabs do not have the ability to look inward and fix their mistakes. In the end, that will be their fatal flaw. They will need to hit and stay at rock bottom for a while before they or at least a few of them have the sense to crawl out of their holes, instead of digging them deeper. Insh'allah, MoFo....

#6 Excellent move. Perfect. Consider the recent record:

1. We kick the living shit out of the Fallujans, and their outside support evaporates. Then, when it's to OUR advantage we bring in a basically toothless force of Iraqis in to calm the place down...while not giving an inch of true strategic territory.

2. Our actions in Fallujah, where we showed no hesitation about killing our enemies as well as a willingness to negotiate with the Sunnis, frighten the Shiites (who desperately want us to back them in their quest for power) and causes the Shiites to dump Sadr...whose "rebellion" has simply collapsed.

3. Turn up the pressure on Syria. And they're quealing.

Yes. No more screwing around with these miserable bastards and their allies in Syria and Iran. Make them pay, make them pay dearly.

#7 Finally! Something I can agree with the Arabs on. The U.S. did choose a bad time to impose sanctions on Syria. It should have been done long before now.

What? That's not what they mean?
