#1 A brief glance leads me to the conclusion Woolsey thinks we're going to have to deal with the Soddies and the sooner the better.

#2 This is a powerful indictment of the Saudi regime. What makes it particularly credible is:

1. it is not the product of some fringe group with a predetermined agenda
2. it is brimming with documented evidence and does not make unsubstantiated claims

I only hope it gets traction. I fear it won't, though.

#3 I forgot the history from 1979, when the fanatics took over Mecca and the blood bath ensued. So focused on the Iranian hostages.

Look at what the Soddie Royals' "bargain" has led to? Wahhabism with global reach.

#4 Ya know, because of freedom and speech and freedom of religion, they're perfectly able to distribute this crap. And I *really* don't think we should try to stop them.

However, there's no reason for the local mosque to *accept* or *distribute* this crap. For as long as this shit is passed out at mosques, we have every right to look funny at Muslims.

Look at it this way -- if you knew a certain denomination of (self-proclaimed) Christians were likely to have white supremacist literature available in their churches, then when you encounter a member of that denomination, you're likely to wonder if that person is, himself, a white supremacist. It really wouldn't be out of line, or bigoted, or even a bad conclusion to make: they distribute that crap, so they must have some level of agreement with it.

So if Muslims want people to stop looking at them oddly, they'd damned well better clean up their own houses of worship. Three years after 9-11, with the spotlight on them, that they still have this garbage on hand says a lot of bad things about them.

#5 Sounds like the Islamic version of KKK.
