-RetweetThe Kos Kid-Al Qaeda Convergence

Thu, Mar 15, 2007 at 11:24:43 am PDT

At the web’s center of “progressive” thought, a Daily Kos diarist finds a lot to admire in the closing statement of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed at his tribunal in Gitmo: Daily Kos: The Eloquence of an Enemy Combatant. (Hat tip: Killgore Trout.)

...KSM delivered a closing statement in broken English that contains eloquent statements about the nature of war and America’s predisposition to define.

KSM makes a statement that many in a liberal arts college would find familiar; that it is often the winner of a war that dictates its history. If Britain had beaten out the colonies in the Revolutionary War, he insinuates, George Washington would not be a hero, but an ‘enemy combatant:’ a terrorist...

He is saddened by the deaths of the 3000 civilians in Sept. 11, especially the lives of children, but points out that America too, when pursuing a target, will knowingly bomb houses with children and innocents inside. ...

Now we are calling killing terrorism, he says, whereas centuries earlier we called it “manifest destiny” as America wiped out Indian populations. A shrewd point. ...

He is likewise preoccupied by making the point that Islam is not a bloodthirsty religion. ...there are exceptions to injunctions against violence found in the Qur’an. It is our “bad luck,” he says, to be included in that exception. ...

Killing is killing, and we need to stop defining our actions as noble and holy and the terrorists’ as evil and inhuman. KSM seems as saddened by the seeming inevitability of war as any pacifist.

He just wants us to admit that there are victims on both sides - that, to some suffering communities who have been on the wrong end of American bombs, Americans are the inhuman ‘enemy combatants.’

UPDATE at 3/15/07 12:10:00 pm:

Here’s another example of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s “eloquence:” Reputed 9/11 mastermind says he decapitated journalist Daniel Pearl.

“I decapitated with my blessed right hand the head of the American Jew Daniel Pearl,” Mohammed said through a personal representative, according to the transcript released by the Pentagon.

UPDATE at 3/15/07 2:29:41 pm:

The diary has now been deleted, and the Kidz are working themselves up into a lather: Daily Kos: LGF false flag op on dKos.

“False flag op.” Heh. As if it’s unusual to find posts like that at Daily Kos.

And these geniuses want to be the leaders of America.

"Killing is killing, and we need to stop defining our actions as noble and holy and the terrorists’ as evil and inhuman."

So in KSM's and the Wonderful World of Kos, we would RAISE ourselves if we would just accept the fact that we are to BE killed, and NOT kill in return.

Thanks for clarifying that !

I'm sure he was deeply saddened.

Anyway, if a civilian dies in an American attack, you can bet that the target was not the civilian.

It's amazing how eagerly the Left believes the Muslim imperialists' "explanation" of why they kill innocents.

The stock answer is that America has bombed and raped the world for pleasure and profit, and now the victims are fighting back.

The only problem with that answer is that it is a Big, Fat Lie.

Though it is a very convenient lie. It covers up the fact that Islam commands its followers to conquer the world. It covers up the fact that Islam opposes democracy and supports dictatorship. It provides moral cover for an ideology that embraces slavery, oppression of women, religious intolerance, law without due process, and obscene punishments for crimes--some of them victimless.

What moral degeneracy. Here is a Leftist heaping respect and admiration on a mass murderer. Islamists claim they don't enjoy killing children. But they make no effort to avoid killing them, celebrate when they do kill them, and on many occasions they have targeted schools.

41 kulthur  Thu, Mar 15, 2007 9:37:36am

This guy is begging for a lobotomy.

But the only thing that bothers me about the KSM confession sheet is that he seems like a Really busy guy, don't you think? I mean, this guy seems to've masterminded virtually every terrorist plot I've heard of, all of which occurred or were intended to occur within a few years...

Not doubting the validity of the information, the method of extraction or the gov't agents involved, but doesn't the list seem just a little comprehensive? On my first read it sort of sounded like it bolstered the anti-war claim I to which I generally and strenuously object, namely that this is a law enforcement problem. Aside from the Islamic Emirate of Waziristan, which badly needs a large dose of plausibly-deniable biological warfare, someone please point out the error in this very pro-WoT guy's vague suspicions.

Killing is killing, and we need to stop defining our actions as noble and holy and the terrorists’ as evil and inhuman.

The above is an especially detestable example of leftist moral equivalence, exactly as the LLL love to either practice it themselves or laud it in others.

Of course, all killings are NOT equal, and everyone here knows it.

First of all, what American ever calls killing by Americans "holy"? Killing enemies in war is simply a necessary job which we would rather not need to do but must do. This is war, idiot Kossite! This "holy" killing thing is typical lunatic, straw-man exaggeration by terrorists & Kossites.

Second, am I now to understand that the 9/11 attacks are NOT to be considered evil?

51 Hot Rod Kid  Thu, Mar 15, 2007 9:40:22am

K.S. Mohammed is counting on his audience not appreciating (or remembering) the distinction that for someone who professes sadness at the death of civilians he sure picked a method of attack (hijacking civilian jumbo jets with passengers on them and flying them into buildings, in the case of the Twin Towers, occupied by civilians) that guaranteed civilians would be killed, and in large numbers.

If Britain had beaten out the colonies in the Revolutionary War, he insinuates, George Washington would not be a hero, but an ‘enemy combatant:’ a terrorist...

What a poor grasp on history. First of all, the Americans established a government and formally declared Independence, thereby granting them the authority to declare war against the occupying Brits. al-qaeda is not a government entity in any way, shape or form, therefore a term such as Prisonor of War cannot be applied due to the lack of a government with which to arrange a prisoner swap or conduct any formal negotiations. Not so for the American Revolution.

Second, Washington, and the other Founding Fathers, would have been "traitors"- a term any kosling would avoid looking into since it might hit a little close to home.

Some Imams incite to kill women, beat children: PA Academic

In an open challenge to Palestinian leadership, Dr. Nadir Sa'id of Bir Zeit University condemned the violence in Palestinian society and placed the blame on the political and religious leaders. He blamed both Fatah and Hamas, including the Prime Minister and others ministers, for hundreds of killings. He condemned some Imams who preach the killing of women and beating of children. He criticized these actions, as well as the hate incitement that has created a Palestinian society permeated with violence. Children have learned that the use of violence achieves power and influence.

This self-criticism is rare in the PA media. If it continues, this is a positive development.

But it's Israel and the US that are innately violent.

66 Carolina Girl  Thu, Mar 15, 2007 9:44:05am

There are simply no words that Charles will allow on this site to describe this loathesome little object. If Kos cannot see the difference between those engaged in hijacking and flying airplanes into buildings, using children as human shields, beheading those who subscribe to a different religion with those who go to do everything possible to depose a ruthless dictator and repressive government, and who also do everything possible to avoid the taking of human life, even to the point of compromise of their own safety, then there is, at long last, no hope for Markos Zuniga and his band of mental defectives - they have finally gone through the looking glass are are totally incapable of dealing with reality.

I would advise anyone running for public office who have been pandering to these nitwits to distance themself(ves) immediately and condemn these remarks for what they are.

Just received this email from a lefty:

[Link: www.salon.com...]

When will we hear from Howard Kurtz with a front-page Washington Post story, or Wolf Blitzer and Sean Hannity with dramatic television coverage?


Revelations that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed planned assassination plots against former Presidents Carter and Clinton -- especially Carter -- are causing great confusion among right-wing Civilization Warriors...

But commenters at Little Green Footballs have not only expressed surprise, but outright support, for Mohammed's assassination plot against a former U.S. President. They are out in droves expressing sorrow that Al Qaeda did not have the opportunity to carry out its plot.

...

Here, one of the largest right-wing blog communities which pretends to be opposed to Al Qaeda is expressing support for Al Qaeda murder plots against former U.S. Presidents . ...

Unlike Huffington Post, which deleted the comments in question, Johnson (at LittleGreenFootballs) has left them on his blog. Even more significantly, Johnson actively and regularly deletes comments he does not like, which lends some credibility to the notion that he approves of these comments,


Ironically, some of the commenters wishing for the death of Clinton and Carter are THE SAME commenters who expressed outrage during the "liberals are meanies" non-story a few weeks ago.


Not a single LGF commenter in that discussion condemned this support for Al Qaeda's assassination plot, nor has a single right-wing blogger (that I'm aware of) said a single word about any of it.

"Killing is killing, and we need to stop defining our actions as noble and holy and the terrorists’ as evil and inhuman."

I am sure KSM is a real fan of Nazi science, after all, science is science - who are we to define our science as noble and holy and the Nazi's as evil and inhuman.

We're rational human beings that's who we are. That's why we define some things as noble and and some as evil.

On Saturday, Khalid Sheihk Muhammed confessed to a staggering array of terrorist plots, from September 11 to the 1993 WTC bombings, from attempts on a handful of public figures (the Pope, Musharraf) to attempts on a handful of US buildings (Sears Tower, Empire State Building

He just wants us to admit that there are victims on both sides - that, to some suffering communities who have been on the wrong end of American bombs, Americans are the inhuman ‘enemy combatants.’

Aw, innat sweeet.

He just wants us to admit that Islam is a viable answer for humanity. What could be more reasonable?

Oh, and he also wants his successors to successfully bomb the crap out of us whenever and wherever they can, using splodeydopes or flying airliner bombs, it doesn't really matter.

Actually, in this case as many, what Islamic Jihadists do is not killing. It is MURDER. What we're doing is Killing the Murderers. And it is just and right to kill MURDERERS.

Learn the distinction, dipshit. Maybe a few months hanging with some jihadists would change your slack-jawed reverence for these filth.

These terrorists really know what heart strings to pull in order to get the desired response from the ‘pacifists’.

While our enemies fly civilian aircraft into tall buildings both full of innocent civilians. Yeah, I can see the equivalence between George Washington and KSM very clearly.

I just looked at the comments on the Kos thread. Even THEIR readers think the guy's a monstrous creep.

Maybe there are limits, even for the that crowd.

I don't buy that for a second.

After the main Koskook Marcos posted the "Screw Em" diary, about the 4 American contractors who were beaten, their bodies had been burned, while they were still alive, hung from a bridge, and then beaten to pieces with sticks, by a mob after their hung, burned, completely charred bodies had been cut down, it is very clear where the Daily Kos stands.

Marcos Kos, wrote that diary, complete with pictures of the process of what happened to the Americans.

Those 4 Americans were as much Americans as you and I and the Koskook, yet, he clearly reveled in the facts of what happened to them.

I hope he burns in hell for that one, alone!

By next month, a liberal federal judge will rule the confession to be inadmissible in a civilian criminal court because of questionable tactics of the interrogators.

This is why the terrorist detainees must be jailed far away from mainland USA where the misguided ACLU and the Democrats will advise them that they have the right to remain silent and the right to a lawyer and the right to vote.

He is correct that there are victims on both sides with one major proviso. The American, Israelis, and British forces go out of their way to avoid civilian casualties; to the point that soldiers lives are put at risk in so doing. The Muslims make no such distinction. Indeed, they seem to seek civilian casualties and revel in the fact that the casualties occured.

148 looking closely  Thu, Mar 15, 2007 10:17:39am

To clarify here, murder (narrowly defined) is a deliberate unlawful killing.

Bombing a house full of civilians because Saddam Hussein is hiding among them isn't murder; collateral damage is a recognized, legal, (and unfortunately sometimes necessary) aspect of warfare, in this case, openly declared war.

But bombing a house full of civilians to send a message to Hussein that his regime is wrong, would most certainly be murder under any Western standard, and this would apply identically to 9-11. Its murder. . .period.

To equate the first thing to the second thing, which is what KSM did, is just propagandistic. Even KSM knows that targeting civilians is murder, and his grandstanding is deliberately aimed at stupid moral equivocators like the KOS doofus who authored the above post. Way to go chump, you've been suckered by a terrorist.

Even if the USA *did* engage in a policy of deliberately murdering civilians (which it did not) that still wouldn't justify 9-11. If you rape my sister, I don't get to rape your sister.

Now to muddy the waters, to Islamists, chopping the heads off of Jewish journalists, for example, may not count as "murder" if said decapitation is legal under Islamic law. (It probably isn't, but that's a whole other story). That doesn't make it "right", obviously, which is one of the big problems here.

Conversely, it could be argued that since Islamic law specifies a different and lesser penalty for the killing of non-Muslims (vs Muslims), there may literally is no such thing as "murder" of non-Muslims by Muslims.

Disgusting. . .yes.

Gandi's Way Isn't the American Way
Collective suicide is no foreign policy.
By Fred Thompson

I feel bad for Nancy Pelosi, AND her neighbors. Anti-war activists from the group Code Pink have been giving her the same treatment the president gets at his Crawford, Texas, ranch. Camping on her San Francisco lawn, they’re demanding she cut off funds to the troops in Iraq.

Besides coolers and mattresses, protesters have brought along a giant paper mache statue of Mahatma Gandhi, who is pretty much the symbol of the anti-war movement. Code Pink was founded on his birthday, and when Saddam Hussein was being given a last chance to open Iraq to U.N. weapons inspectors, posters appeared around America asking “What would Gandhi do?”

And that’s a pretty good question. At what point is it okay to fight dictators like Saddam or the al Qaeda terrorists who want to take his place?

It turns out that the answer, according to Gandhi, is NEVER. During World War II, Gandhi penned an open letter to the British people, urging them to surrender to the Nazis. Later, when the extent of the holocaust was known, he criticized Jews who had tried to escape or fight for their lives as they did in Warsaw and Treblinka. “The Jews should have offered themselves to the butcher’s knife,” he said. “They should have thrown themselves into the sea from cliffs.” “Collective suicide,” he told his biographer, “would have been heroism.”

The so-called peace movement certainly has the right to make Gandhi’s way their way, but their efforts to make collective suicide American foreign policy just won’t cut it in this country. When American’s think of heroism, we think of the young American soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan, risking their lives to prevent another Adolph Hitler or Saddam Hussein.

Gandhi probably wouldn't approve, but I can live with that.

Now we are calling killing terrorism, he says, whereas centuries earlier we called it “manifest destiny” as America wiped out Indian populations. A shrewd point. ...


This one is wrong on so many counts, I'm not even sure where to start. First, it isn't a shrewd point. It is a non sequitor. Combating terrorism has nothing to do with the western expansion in the US, unless he wants to consider the Muslims as being the expansionist movement. And then it would still not be a comparable situation. The civilization with the most effecient life style will, in the end, presevere. The land used to support a tribe of native Americans would support thousands of settlers. This can not be said of the Terrorists. Effecient life style? A seventh century frame of mind and lifestyle?

I don't want to get into the whole native American arguement as it is futile. It happened and it can't be changed. But the analogy used by KSM doesn't work. Whether he plays the terrorists as the settlers or as the native Americans, It just doesn't apply.

This is OT, but I'm furious so I hope you'll indulge me. This is Howard Dean right now at http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0307/3142.htm l

"I am trying to build relationships with other governments in preparation for a Democratic takeover," Dean told me. "I want to make clear that there is an opposition in America and that we are ready to take power and that when we do, we are going to have much better relationships with them."

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it (to say the least) questionable for a US politician to be interacting directly with foreign governments against the interests of the US government? There's a word for it somewhere. Er.. Traipsing? Teasing? What was it?

First of all, the Americans established a government and formally declared Independence, thereby granting them the authority to declare war against the occupying Brits.


King George III declared the English colonies in rebellion a full year before the Declaration of Independence. Though there had been some rebellious acts due to various tax laws imposed on the colonies, the revolution was forced on the English subjects who became Americans. The Declaration of Independence wasn't passed until major combat in Massachusetts and New York. If acts of Parliament weren't viewed as absolutely valid there's a good chance the Revolution would have been avoided. But the Brits at the time were absolutely seething about the colonists rejection of certain taxes.

That's why I always celebrate King George III on Independence Day. He declared our independence a year before we did.

I always find it hard to answer this argument, frankly. I think yours may be the best answer there is.


Man, unfortunately looks at history through 20th/21st century eyes. But the history of man is one of expansionist movements. As one group got larger they had to expand. As a group got pushed out, for example the Navajoes, they moved and pushed others out (Hopi and Zuni among others). As I said, it is history and we should read it, study it, and learn from it. We can not change it.

Methinks that the lefties have to embrace KSM while downplaying the confession for two reasons; they can say that the confession was forced, and is therefore worthless, while saying that KSM's grievances are justified. The confession is therefore, fake but accurate, because America is Evil. Gitmo! Halliburton! Surge! My Pet Goat!1!one!

HERBERT SPENCER:

Defensive warfare (and of course it is solely to this that the foregoing argument applies) must therefore be tolerated as the least of two evils. There are indeed some who unconditionally condemn it, and would meet invasion by non-resistance. To such there are several replies.

First, consistency requires them to behave in like fashion to their fellow-citizens. They must not only allow themselves to be cheated, assaulted, robbed, wounded, without offering active op-position, but must refuse help from the civil power; seeing that they who employ force by proxy are as much responsible for it as though they employed it themselves.

Again, such a theory makes pacific relationships between men and nations look needlessly Utopian. If all agree not to aggress, they must as certainly be at peace with each other as though they had all agreed not to resist. So that, while it sets up so difficult a standard of behavior, the rule of non-resistance is not one whit more efficient as a preventive of war, than the rule of non-aggression ...

Lastly, it can be shown that non-resistance is also absolutely wrong. We may not carelessly abandon our rights. We may not give away our birthright for the sake of peace. If it be a duty to respect other men's claims, so also is it a duty to maintain our own.

(FYI - Can't find a link to substantiate, but, I read Spencer while at university, and I remember it written as "pacifism" not "non-resistance"...I only did a quick search to found the above, and this is close to what I read in school.)

If Britain had beaten out the colonies in the Revolutionary War, he insinuates, George Washington would not be a hero, but an ‘enemy combatant:’ a terrorist...

Tired meme, real modern Leftist straw-grasping, and not true. Too many counter-examples to list.

He is saddened by the deaths of the 3000 civilians in Sept. 11, especially the lives of children, but points out that America too, when pursuing a target, will knowingly bomb houses with children and innocents inside. ...

False. Our ROE bend over backwards to spare non-combatants and "sensitive" targets. Any idiot who watches even MSM Nooz Teevee knows this.

Now we are calling killing terrorism, he says, whereas centuries earlier we called it “manifest destiny” as America wiped out Indian populations. A shrewd point.

No, we're calling attempts to influence policy through deliberate murder of non-combatants by non-uniformed, non-judicially-accountible parties "terrorism". That's what terrorism is. Did the U.S. military use terror tactics against the natives two centuries ago? On occasion, yes, unfortunately. Does our military do that now? Absolutely not.

He is likewise preoccupied by making the point that Islam is not a bloodthirsty religion. ...there are exceptions to injunctions against violence found in the Qur’an. It is our “bad luck,” he says, to be included in that exception. ...

And there are lots and lots of exceptions in the Koran, Hadith, and Sunaa. The big exception is being an "infidel". Sorry, KSM doesn't get off on a technicality here.

The Kos kooks are upholding American the left's long tradition of providing America's enemies with aid and comfort and by doing so reconfirm its long history of treasonous stands against the safety and security of all Americans.
From 1880 until 1921 the American left was married to the discredited vicious bomb tossing anarcho-syndicalists but ditched that declining cause after the Palmer Raids to lend its loyalty,devotion, and obedience to the Bolshevik Brigands who had usurped the Russian Revolution of 1917 and established the most evil totalitarian regime in the history of mankind and continued to do so for the next 74 years.
With the Bolsheviks gone in Russia the American left has tied their political and ideological wagon to the islamofascist's shock troops the jihaddis labeling them as they did the Bolsheviks and their clones around the world freedom fighters.
They excuse the islamofascist mass murderer Mohammad and his fellow traveler henchmen with the same fervor and aplomb they used to support and defend Stalin, Mao, Ho, Pot, Gottleib, Honecker, Mengitsu, and dozens of other killer tyrants.
Despite the historical proof of the left's betrayal of our country, its Constitution, and our freedoms American and western left and their lamestream media mouthpieces have the chutzpah to tell us we dare not question their patriotism despite their current support of those who kill us and continue to shout their intentions to keep doing so.
Conservatives need to vocally remind the public of the left's baggage of more than a hundred year record of treason and complicity with the bloodiest perfidies in the history of the modern world.

This guy is begging for a lobotomy.

I think he's a little late for that.

But the only thing that bothers me about the KSM confession sheet is that he seems like a Really busy guy, don't you think? I mean, this guy seems to've masterminded virtually every terrorist plot I've heard of, all of which occurred or were intended to occur within a few years...

Not doubting the validity of the information, the method of extraction or the gov't agents involved, but doesn't the list seem just a little comprehensive? On my first read it sort of sounded like it bolstered the anti-war claim I to which I generally and strenuously object, namely that this is a law enforcement problem. Aside from the Islamic Emirate of Waziristan, which badly needs a large dose of plausibly-deniable biological warfare, someone please point out the error in this very pro-WoT guy's vague suspicions.

You're right to be suspicious. This laundry list of terror leaves us with two possibilities:

1. He really was the single most important operational mastermind of AQ, and AQ's much-studied USMC-style delegation of responsiblity to relatively low levels didn't apply to senior leadership. All those guilt-ridden college-educated punks running cells in the western world were not, in fact, operating so independently; KSM is a lynchpin, and his capture is one of the main reasons why there haven't been many major, regular attacks against high-profile targets since his capture.

2. He's full of shit. He's telling us he's the Grand Wizard of Ku Klux Queda in order to keep us from asking too many questions about what's really going on inside AQ. It's a big smokescreen.

I've read that many mid-level officers in staff colleges and think tanks seem to "get it". AQ is certainly being studied by many, many intelligent, sharp, capbable people. I'm hoping that whatever's going on here, we have our brightest, most flexible minds picking it apart and pressing our advantages to the maximum.

Now if the people at the top could just pull their heads out of their asses...

This is the new liberal Messiah.

I was just thinking about this. Here are your Top Ten Reasons why he resonates with the self-loating left:

1. He's Brown. Automatic +100 HuffDUKosian Street Cred.
2. He's Anti-American. More Street Cred.
3. He got busted by jack-booted thugs for "standing up to The Man", man!
4. He's in Gitmo, which automagically makes him some kind of martyr.
5. He's "eloquent" (meaning, he can write more than three sentences in a row without using Koran verses).
6. He's published.
7. He's photogenic (compared to Osama).
8. He's a full-time Revolutionary with a long history of Standing Up To The Man (multiple attacks, spanning years).
9. He knows how to play word-games without getting angry. He's an intellectual, man!
10. The only person he admits killing with is own hands was a Jew, which, as we know, is excusable... Because, like, Israel is the root of the problem, man. Jews are fair game.

I think everybody has figured out that Osama is just some moron with money who liked the idea of being the Islamic version of a rock star, namely, an international mass murder and it was other people who did the thinking.

He has a Mohammed Complex the size of Everest.

Of course, the very idea of a "Mohammed Complex" is heretical against Islam on so many levels, not the least of which is that psychology is Haram, but deep down inside, you know Osama thinks he's another Mohammed.

It's easy, this definitely not an LGF plant. I found it and I didn't write it. If it was written by a right wing infiltator it's someone who understands the LLL very well. It's pretty damn convincing

I also doubt that it's a "plant".

But, while I don't post as often as I once did, I take accusations like this seriously.

That's why I was wondering if Charles has the technical gee-wizz tricks to be able to put the accusations to rest.

That may be true of today's Left leadership, and even for the tattood youth on the Left. But I think the middle-class liberals aren't even aware of socialist/communist history. Perhaps it's fear and ignorance that drives them to lean Left.

So dKos is an Evil Place because that diary appeared, and now it's an Evil Place because it's disappeared. Ain't that right, guys?

No.

Evil isn't the right word for the overall spiritual status of Kos. I'd pick words like Perplexing, Frustrating, or Depressing.

Oh, and for #220: My understanding is that "kestrel9000" isn't a "guy".

Pretty sure it's a "he". I can't recall why we know about this person, though; I just remember that s/he posted something ridiculous over there once. I want to say it was some kind of threat against Charles or LGF, and there was discussion of "talon flexing" that made the author sound like a lonely refugee from the Furry community.

Moral equivalency at its most sickening

By the way, when did the settlers "wipe out Indian populations"?

To the best of my knowledge, most of the Indians were lost to disease, assimilation, and inter tribal warfare. Sure there were bloody massacres and wars with the colonists, but there was no systematic slaughtering of civilians on a mass scale.

Another leftist canard that pops like the turd bubble that it is

Who would have ever thought that they would radicalize so fast. When the dems tipped the congress in their favor (yes tipped..it's not like this was a landslide people!), I did not expect them to put in far leftists like pelosi and murtha. I probably should have seen it coming when they placed howard dean at the head of their party..like that made any sense..lol he fails primaries and they rehire him! And then they offered up john kerry...wtf. They couldn't do better than that? Dems in the past have insulated those whackos to the far left from really overpowering their party.

I can only hope this will motivate the conservatives or even the mild liberals out there to vote in republicans to balance this out or we'll end up uncivilized faster than I thought. I do have a few friends that I suspect lean to the left mildly but they are beginning to get very pissed off at the dean and pelosi and co. movement. In essence, I do think this stance they have taken will backfire. Reasonable people do not identify with howard dean, pelosi, murtha, etc.

I also think that it's a good tactic on kos' part..put the blame on Charles and try to stifle him from looking through their many crazy diaries and pointing it out their unhingedness (is that a word? /snicker) to the world.

This tactic seems to work for dems, unfortunately for them, Charles doesn't have to worry about elections..and has a mind of his own.

Look, this is the sort of mindless piling on that gives LGF a bad rep. I've heard a bunch of hearsay over there and over here about who the poster was. Does anyone know? Apparently the person was not well integrated in the Kos community, does anyone know anything more about it?

I'd just say that we can't blame the "left as a whole," because they are human and react to violence in primarily the same we do. "We are all Americans" was the call of even the more terrible people around the world.

I agree that "Eloquence trumps morality" in general Leftish rants, but it's better to become eloquent than to attack them.

No one has ever been convinced by being belittled into submission, aside from those practicing clever passive-aggression.

One link, coming up. I keep wondering when the Head Lizardoid is going to kick me off his site.

Osama has killed his thousands, and Bush his tens of thousands.

by Sura 109 on Thu Mar 15, 2007 at 01:22:17 PM PDT

[ Parent ]

You don't have to get "kicked off" sura, you could leave of your own volition. Or, you could engage in intelligent presentation of your ideas and convictions in a manner that will be respected by those here who do not agree with you. But that isn't the way for those who support totalitarian socialism.(socialism is totalitarian by its nature.)

" Osama has killed his thousands, and Bush his tens of thousands.." How old are you, 13? 14? I interpret you many comments here at LGF to be the values of either a secular progressive socialist or a Islamist. Then again, the two belief systems cross paths and commingle until it's impossible to tell from which ideology one speaks.

But assuming you're a leftist, explain to me why you secular progressive pacifists are so gullible, naive, and ignorant of human nature (or simple game theory) that you allow yourselves to believe in the utopian fantasy that humanity will all "live as one" someday?

There exists in human nature the capacity for Mother Theresa as well as for the likes of Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, Hitler, Jeffery Dahmer et al.

If you think the secular progressive nonsense spewed daily at Dailycus is the vanguard of a happy hugfest towards which you are leading humanity, then get a clue. So long as there are millions of people on the planet who are willing to fight to the death before succumbing to socialist collectivism or Islamic tyranny, you'll have a hell of a fight on your hands.

Al Qaeda to Democrats: We Won When You Won

What I find remarkable is al-Zawahari’s insight into American politics. He understands the last election was about George Bush’s war. He understands that we are Americans first and that party affiliation is, where foreign policy is concerned, less relevant. He warns all Americans that we share the responsibility as a country for allowing George Bush to occupy Iraq, and ignore the plight of the Palestinians. The warnings are strong, and the analysis is quite accurate.

Slightly OT, but a must read piece:

The Coming War with Islam

[Link: www.frontpagemag.com...]

From this article:

He [the Israeli Arab Christian] sipped his coffee and gave me a long look. He seemed like someone who wasn’t quite sure whether to say what he was about to say. I gave him an encouraging nod.

“I have to tell you something which very few of you seem to comprehend.” He continued, “Your bungling war against a few thousand Hezbollah fighters which you should have crushed no matter what, considering the importance of the outcome, has created a completely new situation, not only for this area, but globally. Your inept leadership totally misunderstood the importance of winning this war."

“As a matter of fact, the whole Moslem world, not only the Arabs, simply couldn’t believe that the mighty Israeli Army that defeated the combined Arab forces in six days in 1967, and almost captured Cairo and Damascus in 1973, couldn’t defeat a small army of Hezbollah men. As usual the Moslems see things the way they want to see things. Most think that the present generation of Israelis have gone soft and can be defeated."

“The American bungling of the war in Iraq only added to their conviction that victory not only over Israel but also over the West is not only possible, but certain. The ramifications of these two bungling wars may bring an Islamic bloody Tsunami all over the West, not only in Israel. The sharks smell blood and these two wars gave them the green light to attack sooner than they had in mind. Your problem is that you are on the defensive and they have the option to choose the time and the places when and where to attack and there is nothing much you can do about it. When will you Westerners realize that half measures don’t work with people who are willing to die by the thousands for Allah to achieve their goal? In their eyes the Western World is simply an abomination on earth that has to be wiped out.”

“The Americans, the Europeans, and even you Israelis really don’t know what it is all about, do you? During the last generation hundreds of thousands of children have been taught all over the Moslem world in Madrass schools to become martyrs for Allah in order to kill the infidels. These youngsters not only are ready to do it, but are actually in the process of doing it. Bombs are going off all over the world killing and maiming thousands of people, not only on 9/11 in the US, in London Madrid and Bali, but in Africa, India, Bengladesh, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and many other places. The first signs of the Islamic Tsunami is already here, but the West doesn’t understand, or doesn’t want to understand what is coming."

“The Americans, instead of realizing that this is as bad as World War Two, or even worse, are going to pull out of Iraq, handing it over to Iran on a silver platter. Next may come the Saudis and the rest of the Gulf states. When dirty bombs go off all over Western towns, who is going to stop the Iranians?"

“Now is the time to stop them, not only because they are developing nuclear bombs, but because Iran has become the base for all Islamic terrorist. They supply, money, men, and weapons to Islamic terrorist around the world, quite often through their diplomatic mail. Billions of petro-dollars that are pouring into Iran are being funneled into terrorist organizations world-wide. They believe, and perhaps rightly so, that the West will do nothing to stop them in achieving their goals. Is history repeating itself? Are the Iranians making the same mistake that Hitler made when he attacked Poland? Is the situation similar?"

I don't understand why the Left hates America so. We live in the greatest, most dynamic, most generous, and most forgiving country on earth. I think Kos and his cronies need to be shipped to Cuba and see what their beloved Fidel and his brother will do to them.

So, generally, only an uber-lib would resort to talking "native." I speak American -- I'll leave the "Neeejer" and "Qur’an" to the David Gregory's of the world.

Ah crap. That is so silly. You use your words and I will use proper words. You want to think I am an uber-lib, then so be it. That alone will probably keep me awake all night stressing if I am being conservatively polically correct enough to meet your standards. pffft

Anybody else notice that kestrel also denounced Judy19 as a troll -- for condemning the diary!

After I read her comment I started the think that maybe not all kos kids are America-hating imbeciles. I guess that's a perception they can't afford if they want to keep their leftwing credentials.

Isn't it funny how "progressive" usually means "regressive" nowadays?

They should call it what it is, but they won't so I guess it's up to us.

Btw - I finally got to register after lurking for months. thanks =)

Welcome to the club. The registration process here is based on the "space monkey" selection proccess they used in the film "Fight Club"...if you stand on the porch long enough...you are deemed worthy.

we need to stop defining our actions as noble

The ghouls at Kos wouldn't know a NOBLE ACTION if it bit them in the arse.

I find it ironic that they complained that LGF does not allow open registration all the time and that means that it is restrictive against them.

So does that mean Kos has OPEN registration and will not cancel anyone showing even a little bit of conservative touch?

#151 J.D. -- great post, I like Fred Thompson, too. I also didn't know Ghandi said this:

“Collective suicide,” he told his biographer, “would have been heroism.”

What do you think about that, kossacks?

OK, I'll confess...

"I KILLED KENNY! BA$+ARD!"

-or-

"I stole the cookie from the cookie jar!" (So much for giving up sweets for Lent...)

-or-

"Yup, it was me, I left the toilet seat up AGAIN."

I'll confess too.

It was Baldwin IV, that machiavelian Leper King, and his army of singing, psychic dolphins, that did it!

(and I"M Spartacus!)

Kestrel9000, a scrawny, stoned, one-winged yardbird with "talons" that look suspiciously like Lee Press-on Nails. About as terrifying as a KFC Extra-Crispy drumstick... Think he/she would like to meet Mr. Mossberg and see who is tougher?

"...day-um, ain't nothin' left but a couple o' white feathers and a singed Bonkey sticker. Weren't a whole lot o' anything there..."

Is any of the stuff they said about the "plant" at Kos by an LGFer even true? Somehow it strikes me as...well...not.

He is saddened by the deaths of the 3000 civilians in Sept. 11, especially the lives of children, but points out that America too, when pursuing a target, will knowingly bomb houses with children and innocents inside. ...

What is bloody wrong with these people? Do they not get it? Do they practice being stupid or something?

304 h0mi  Thu, Mar 15, 2007 6:22:23pm

Heh, I'm so sure that picture kestral posted is so every frightening. That picture of his basement is much more disturbing.

What nation do these terrorists represent? That would be none, which is why they are terrorists. Even that nations in which they were born do not like them. But according to the people at Kos, we should sit down and try to understand them. What are we suppose to do? Try to understand everyone in the world that is not happy with something we do? That is insane, as of course they are.

The lug nut dip-shit Kostrato that wrote this -

KSM makes a statement that many in a liberal arts college would find familiar; that it is often the winner of a war that dictates its history. If Britain had beaten out the colonies in the Revolutionary War, he insinuates, George Washington would not be a hero, but an ‘enemy combatant:’ a terrorist...

These Komputer Kommando bravos jes don't get the basic premise.

War ain't about who's right - it's entirely and only about who's left.

KOS KIDZ = LOSERS

they are little more than self loathing spoiled self important children.

Get out of daddy's basement and into the real world and see what it is like. You might actually learn something. Nah, probably not.

Killing is killing, and we need to stop defining our actions as noble and holy and the terrorists’ as evil and inhuman.

(KosKid comes across someone fighting off a mugger)

K.K.: Hey, you two! Cut that out!

They act like my children. Only my kids seem smarter...
