World War III Begins?

    I was waiting for this to happen, and it did. This will result in some casualties in the US at some point. Although our homeland defense to this point has been successful in preventing acts of terror, when Al’Qaida actives all its sleepers (which it appears to have done) they will squeak one through. Although I’m saddened by the potential for lost life, there is a good side. This will expose the terrorist in our midst, and I trust in the patriots spirit to pull together and work through it. We did it on 9/11 and we will do it again. It will separate the traitors among us, and we should act to remove them. This may include people that aren’t in this for the holy war, but just to over throw the government. Some people hate the President so much, they will be willing to stand with Al’Qaida to over through our government and our way of life. What they fail to understand is, Al’Qaida targets Bush not for the same reasons that they do. Al’Qaida would just as gladly kill a liberal as a conservative, a democrat or republican, atheist or Christian.

    Here is the announcement of the beginning of this war as told by the California Conservative:

    Al-Qaida Calls for Holy War Against Israel — And The Rest of The World, Too…

AP reports: “Al-Qaida’s No. 2 leader issued a worldwide call Thursday for Muslims to rise up in a holy war against Israel and join the fighting in Lebanon and Gaza until Islam reigns from “Spain to Iraq.”

In the message broadcast by Al-Jazeera television, Ayman al-Zawahri, second in command to Osama bin Laden, said that al-Qaida now views “all the world as a battlefield open in front of us.”

The Egyptian-born physician said that the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah and Palestinian militants would not be ended with “cease-fires or agreements.”

Do you hear that, liberal protesters?

“It is a jihad (holy war) for the sake of God and will last until (our) religion prevails … from Spain to Iraq,” al-Zawahri said. “We will attack everywhere.”

Well, there you have it. That’s the plan.

Diplomacy? Anyone?

He said Arab regimes were accomplices to Israel. “My fellow Muslims, it is obvious that Arab and Islamic governments are not only impotent but also complicit … and you are alone on the battlefield. Rely on God and fight your enemies … make yourselves martyrs.”

Appeasement and negotiation are not options.

He also called for the “downtrodden” throughout the world, not just Muslims, to join the battle against “tyrannical Western civilization and its leader, America.”

Sounds like Cesar Chavez and his pal, Cindy Sheehan. Is he also blogging on the DailyLostKos?

“Stand with Muslims in confronting this unprecedented oppression and tyranny. Stand with us as we stand with you against this injustice that was forbidden by God in his book (the Quran),” al-Zawahri said.

Y’know, maybe we should rethink our strategy and forget about military might. Instead, simply send armed liberals and the ACLU to the Middle East. Just like the successful battle they’ve been waging in U.S., in no time they would have all references to religion driven from politics and the public square.

Only problem is, unlike Christians today, who allow themselves to be mocked and persecuted by remaining nonviolent, the Islamists would respond to the ACLU much differently.

Terrorism is a plague upon the earth. And that’s no joke.
