While the U.S. is dancing in the streets, the extremist are making plans. Martyrs are powerful.
The death of bin Laden is nothing more than a token win for the U.S. government, a trophy of sorts that the U.S. will be paying for for decades, unfortunately. How many more lives need to be destroyed before we learn from the past?
I feel no pitty for bin Laden or his followers, but I feel for the lives this action will distroy.


Exactly what do you say we are supposed to "learn from the past"?

You think killing bin Laden was a bad idea?

You think that because we killed bin Laden we have made it more likely that terrorists will kill us, therefore we should not have killed him?

Haven't you figured it out yet? Islamic terrorists commit acts of terror in order to advance their goal of imposing Sharia law on the the Dar al Harb, that part of the world not yet subjugated to Islam.

Every time anyone acts to resist them, that act is characterized as a provocation to people who need no provocation. It's a mind game to discourage people from resisting. It is an invitation to cowards to restrain those who would resist Islamic Jihad.

You cannot give up everything and remain free of these people.

Don't you get it?

Appeasement does not work. Europe appeased Hitler ... to what end?

There is no act offensive to Islam which does not provoke acts of violence and murder or threats.

Should we ban cartoons which mock Mohammad? Surely, you know that such cartoons provoked murderous mobs of Muslims all over the world. Do you think anyone is going to make a movie showing the life and acts of their prophet? You'd have burning theaters full of screaming infidels.

We are already restrained. In Canada Ezra Levant was prosecuted for republishing the Mohammad cartoons. Gert Wilders, a member of parliament, prosecuted in Holland for speech which is offensive to Muslims.

Where do you draw the line in order to avoid provoking Islamic Jihadists?

WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE IF ALL THE SHEEP UNANIMOUSLY PASS A RESOLUTION IN FAVOR OF VEGETARIANISM WHEN THE WOLVES ARE OF A DIFFERENT OPINION ON THE MATTER?
