It has been a busy week or two for the Islamofascists. While the hand wringing ninnies in Europe and the UN were busy denouncing the security fence Israel is building, Hamas has shown once again why it is necessary. Meanwhile, the bastards in Iraq continue their rebellion against the crusaders by beheading and shooting 12 Nepalese. This follows closely on the heels of their principled protest of France's ban on the wearing of conspicuous religious apparel in public schools. Of course, a bodycount in the 30s is probably somewhat of a letdown for them after last week's simultaneous bombing of two Russian passenger jets. The Islamofascists are serious. One candidate in this election is just as serious about meeting the threats we face head on - President Bush. Kerry, meanwhile, has no plan for protecting this country other than to appease the appeasers. The Belmont Club notes the following on how successful such a course would be:

Paying tribute is all part of the nuanced foreign policy of former great states. But whether the French ante up with secret political concessions or payouts, the result will be the same. More Americans and Iraqis will die as the price of French appeasement.

Sadly, it continues.
