Anti-American Quiz, Number 1,651
Who said the following statement this week?
It suffices as evidence of this your entering of this war and your excusing of American soldiers from being held to account by the European courts. For this reason, this address of mine is to you, not to your politicians, as it is no longer a secret that Blair, Brown, Berlusconi, Aznar, Sarkozy and those with him and their like love to shade themselves in the shade of the White House. And there isn’t a major difference worth mentioning between them and many of the leaders of the Third World.
A – Cindy Sheehan
B – Nancy Pelosi
C – Osama bin Laden
D – Harry Reid
E – Dick Durbin
F – John Kerry
G – John Murtha
H – Hugo Chavez
Hard to tell, eh? The answer is C – Osama bin Laden…. but you would hardly know for sure, would you?

Here’s some analysis of Osama’s speech by Walid Pharis:
http://counterterrorismblog.org/2007/11/bin_laden_and_future_jihad_in.php
Back to Usama’s Euro concerns. In short, he is preparing the psychological terrain for an escalation on European soil. Remember Madrid. His cells struck the trains while claiming it was because of the unjust presence of Spanish troops in Iraq. It is very possible that future strikes in Europe would be accompanied with claims related to French, British, Spanish, Danish, Dutch and other military presence in that part of central Asia. The potential forthcoming attacks are being prepared now with al Qaeda propaganda.
Interestingly Bin Laden mentions Blair, Brown, Aznar and Sarkozy. While the first three past and current prime ministers have ordered troops into and within Iraq, the French President has inherited a previous military policy in Afghanistan. What links all these leaders in the mind of Bin Laden? In my estimate, it is not only the past; rather it is the future. The Jihadi supreme commander has been advised by his operational emirs and advisors in Europe that the fight is coming to that continent. Many combat Salafists are already deployed and preparing for violence in Britain, Spain, Scandinavia, Germany and the Benelux. The so-called youth gangs in French suburbs – manipulated by the radical clerics – are already in a state of war against the French state.
Global Jihad in Europe has begun. Al Qaeda wants to claim it, own it and boast about its coming spread. That’s what is on Bin Laden’s mind.

Also, I notice he is refocusing on Afghanistan…. cuz his peeps got their asses kicked this year in Iraq by the U-S-of-A.

I’ve long thought that the Congressional leadership was getting it’s talking points from UBL.
Europe is lost. The son of the British teacher who touched off the Teddy Bear rage sniveled thus:
“I don’t want the verdict to lead to any anti feeling towards Muslims. … One of my fears, and I imagine my mother’s also, will be that this results in any sort of resentment towards Muslim people.” (H/T to John Derbyshire)
This PC drivel is a surrender. A few more Al Queda outrages will seal the deal.
(Isn’t it a bit bigoted to associate mobs calling for the execution of a school teacher over a teddy bear’s name with Islam?)

Now the libs will start raising hell because UBL has shifted his attention from Iraq to Afghanistan. They’ll start bitching that he needs to focus on Iraq where the GWOT is taking place.

The Real Moral Of The Story
I’m going to go out on a limb here and probably upset some people. How? By explaining that I have absolutely no sympathy whatsoever for Gillian Gibbons, the ‘Mohammed Teddy Bear’ teacher.
Why? Well, rather than engaging in the faux outrage of the Left and the MSM at this ‘terrible injustice’ in the utterly dishonest pretence that this one of those ‘isolated incidents’ so beloved of MSM commentary on all things Islamic, I think perhaps we should look at what the poor dear was doing there in the first place.
There of course being the apartheid-oriented capital of Khartoum, dominated by Muslim Arabs – and specifically a school ‘where the majority of pupils are Muslim from well-off Sudanese and expatriate families’.
Where Ms Gibbons was not, was in the concentration camps where the Christian and Animist population of Sudan are being starved, raped and massacred into oblivion by the Janjaweed soldiery under the control off…the Islamic elite. You know, those well-off Sudanese families whose children she was teaching?
So what is actually going on here is that, in that manner so beloved of the MSM, this piece of Sharia-inspired insanity is momentous news…but only because there is a middle-aged white woman involved. This kind of lunacy is par for the course in all Islamic countries the world over, but this time for once it’s a (shock horror blood dripping letters) British Citizen on the receiving end, so now we must care.
Consider that, in the time it took several million of us to watch tonight’s headline news item about the dreadful plight of Ms Gibbons, there in Sudan by her own choice teaching the children of the ‘well-off Sudanese’, the murderous swine under the control of those same children’s adult counterparts probably slaughtered a village, or gangraped a few dozen helpless women and girls. Or both.
So spare me the shock and horror, and the sympathy for a victim who had a choice about where to be, and knew full well the despicable rules of the country she chose to be in. Reserve it instead for the people dying in the camps just a few hours drive away, and the hundreds of millions of women who live helpless under Sharia Law without that choice of where to be, how to dress, whether or not to have a career or even at the most basic level to gain the slightest measure of justice when they are raped.
If you crawl around in the sewer, expect to get covered in…well, you can guess the rest.
Comment by Vince P — December 1, 2007 @ 1:06 am - December 1, 2007
I’ll meet you halfway, Vince P. I have some sympathy for her plight just because I hate to see any innocent person put through something like that. But at the same time, she is in that position because of her own liberal left naivete. She went into Sudan thinking her good intentions would protect her, and this is what she got in return.
She’s a metaphor for the Cindy Sheehan – Nanny Pelosi – Barack Obama naive brand of liberalism that says we can solve all our problems with diplomacy and negotiation and as long as we go to Iran, and the Palestinians, and al Qaeda with “open hearts and open minds,” nothing bad can happen to us, either.

Do they really believe themselves…. are they under a stupor.. what is their problem
Comment by Vince P — December 1, 2007 @ 8:54 am - December 1, 2007
Let’s see….6 years, 2 months and 20-some days and for all of the Bush’s whup-ass talk about defeating terrorism, we still haven’t caught Osama. And it seems to me he is still doing doing the job you conservatives love him to do. I mean, god forbid he should actually be captured or killed, because then you couldn’t compare him to all your beloved liberals.
And as far as Chavez? I’m very interested in seeing the response from our esteemed oil business people when he wins his referendum on Sunday to essentially vote himself dictator for life. Seems to me that will be the moment we should immediately cease accepting oil from Venezula, but then again we still have American oil (and oil based businesses) that have fudged their way into do business in Iran for years.
Comment by Kevin — December 1, 2007 @ 10:03 am - December 1, 2007
Yes, Kevin, because Osama is the only terrorist in the world. And if we would just arrest him, give him an ACLU lawyer and an OJ jury and put him on trial, all terrorism will be gone forever.
And gee Kevin, since your Sorocrats and their radical environmentalist buddies won’t let us drill for oil in Alaska or the Gulf, and won’t let us build any nuclear power plants, won’t let us build any wind farms (because they might be glimpsed by Ted Kennedy or John Kerry from the decks of their yachts), and won’t let us build any clean coal plants… WTF are we supposed to do? Sit at home in the dark until we freeze or starve to death?

I mean, seriously, that same stupid ‘We never caught bin Laden’ point has been shot down every time it’s brought up, but like a brain-damaged rhesus monkey, he keeps grabbing the banana as though this time he’s *not* going to get an electrical shock.
Comment by V the K — December 1, 2007 @ 11:05 am - December 1, 2007
Do you really think the original blog entry is intellectually honest? I’m not sure. How about this as a blog entry:
‘Which of the following dislike Gay rights: 1) Hitler 2) Castro 3) The KKK 4) Bush 5) Pol Pot 6) Stalin
The above statement was dishonest. So is the original blog entry here.
Comment by Tom in Houston — December 1, 2007 @ 11:09 am - December 1, 2007
Tom: i think you would have to explain why you think its dishonest first.

<em>Which of the following dislike Gay rights: 1) Hitler 2) Castro 3) The KKK 4) Bush 5) Pol Pot 6) Stalin</em>
Say what?
On gay marriage, Bush (and John Edwards) don’t see things my way. But I’ve not seen any efforts by the US gummint to toss me into a concentration camp.
And you might remember that it’s been the western LEFT last seen kissing Castro’s ass. And Stalin and Pol Pot had plenty of sympathy from western commies.
[GP Ed. Note - On gay marriage & civil unions... Bush is in sync with Hillary, Obama & Edwards, in fact.]
Comment by Robert — December 1, 2007 @ 11:45 am - December 1, 2007
There’s nothing dishonest about the blog entry or Tom’s example. And since Tom presumably thinks that Bush’s position on gay rights is the same as Hitler’s and the KKK’s (which it isn’t), he implicitly validates the assertion that Osama’s political views are the same as his Sorocrats.

Now you are being ridiculous (and projecting heavily btw). Bush isn’t Hitler, he’s Bush. But its just as ridiculous to imply that John Kerry, Dick Durbin, Harry Reid, and John Murtha are like OBL simply because OBL had some statement issued in his name that asks for US compliance with international treaties signed by the US. Its especially hypocritical of OBL to issue a statement giving legitimacy to international courts and conventions that he himself would never submit himself or his organization to.
Comment by Tom in Houston — December 1, 2007 @ 1:44 pm - December 1, 2007
Robert,
Go back and read my last post. I was using that intellectually dishonest example to illustrate an example of the larger blogpost here from the other side. I believe both examples are intellectually dishonest.
GP Ed. I didn’t know John Edwards supported the Federal Marriage Amendment. Its news to me
Comment by Tom in Houston — December 1, 2007 @ 1:49 pm - December 1, 2007
Tom, your example didn’t say Bush was Hitler. It asked if Bush and Hitler both “disliked” gay rights. A little intellectual honesty on your part would be appreciated. Bruce similarly asked whether OBL and the “leaders” of the Sorocrat party shared common beliefs vis-a-vis American surrender in Iraq and submission of U.S. soldiers to foreign courts. In fact, the Sorocrats do want the U.S. to surrender to Iraq and do want the USA to turn over sovereignty to the ICC. Bruce has pointed that out in a perfectly valid way.

So you really think that John Murtha John Kerry etc. think like and support the same cause as OBL? That appears to me to be the implication of this blogpost and your response.
Comment by Tom in Houston — December 1, 2007 @ 2:34 pm - December 1, 2007
They all want a US troop withdrawel immediately.
So yes, maynard, they support the same cause.
Plus OBLs ultimate goal is a Caliphate.
JM and JK probably dont know what that is, nor would they care they did So since they aren’t opposing it, they may as wel be for it.
So yes.. they are smiliar.
Comment by Vince P — December 1, 2007 @ 2:46 pm - December 1, 2007
So you really think that John Murtha John Kerry etc. think like and support the same cause as OBL?
They want the US to lose in Iraq, so does OBL. They want the US to be tied up in futile diplomacy while Islamo-Fascism metastasizes and potential acquires WMD. So does OBL.
I don’t think all of the Sorocrats consciously wish the US ill, but I think they are so blinded by their greed and power-lust that they don’t see or don’t care about the damage they are doing. For the last two years, they’ve been openly saying to the terrorists “Kill our troops, because we want to surrender and that will give us a reason,” when they could have demoralized the enemy by presenting a united front for victory.
Comment by V the K — December 1, 2007 @ 2:55 pm - December 1, 2007
I really think they’re misguided, foolish, and concerned for their own political power. With the *result* that their actions support OBL. You know, kind of like Neville Chamberlain in the 1930s, a pompous fool whose misguided actions ended up supporting Hitler – even though Chamberlain wasn’t personally a Nazi.
Comment by ILoveCapitalism — December 1, 2007 @ 7:49 pm - December 1, 2007
10 & 11: I’m very amused when this response comes up. There are 2 reasons for not capturing Bin Laden: 1) the Bush administration and company are simply too flaccid to get the job done. 2) God forbid we should ever remove one of the top symbols to keep people in fear of terror.

Yeah, but Kevin is also amused when the Teletubbies are on, so his amusement means nothing to me.

And rather than arresting the “symbols” of terrorism, I’m happy the administration has chosen to kill actual terrorists.

Damn Bruce, I thought for sure it was one of the Congressional Democrats. Bloody hell, I got it wrong.
A request for the future: the next time you get one of these “terrorists-sound-like-Democrats” statements, don’t do a spolier at the end of the statement telling us who it really is… do one of those polls where we get to enter our hunch and then you can identify the correct speaker when we check for results.
I bet there are some great, great lines from Chavez that sound like Pelosi, lines from Putin that sound like Murtha, lines from bin Laden that sound like Reid, lines from Robbie Mugabe that sound like CindyZeroSheehan and lines from Iran’s now Ayatollah Khamane’i that sound remarkably like JohnKerry –especially if it’s about America’s burden for the world’s ills… or why blue collar guys go into the US Army.
I was absolutely sure that the syntax and tone of that statement was dead-on Democrat Sen Maj Leader Harry gReid. Are you sure bin Laden didn’t do a “JoeBiden” and just steal an earlier gReid piece? Maybe something gReid had published in the NYTimes??
