In the aftermath of yesterday's attack in London England, their Prime Minister came out with the usual tripe ...'we will not let terrorists cause us to change our way of life' and so on and so on, while at the same time the British Parliament was hastily adjourning and heading for cover.
And this, while the USA is now blocking citizens from several Muslim countries from carrying electronics bigger than cell phones on planes bound for the States.
In a recent trip to the States, my wife and I were stopped at least 10 times and forced to present our passports and boarding passes before being allowed to plan. Indeed, one check point guard was so close to the next that he could almost shake hands with the other!!
No we'll certainly not change our life styles in the face of such terror......B.S.
What continues to be forgotten in all of this is that We Are At War With Extreme Islam...not with Muslims themselves, since they are often the target of these self same nutbar jihadists.
And despite the fact that any reasonable person knows that we are at war, Progressive Society still cannot bring itself to say the word and yet the Terrorist groups have no difficulty doing so.
If you are interested in who these bozos are, simply go back to one of my recent blogs in which I inserted an internet list naming dozens and dozens of these Islamic Terrorist Organizations.
So what to do?
Let me first say what not to do and that is when the next attack occurs...as it soon will, don't have the nation's Leader come out with platitudes like the above ... you know 'we are a Free Society etc etc and no act of Terrorism is going to cause us to change blah blah blah'.
Rather, have them say; We are a Free Society and anyone who poses a threat to our Freedom will be quickly and effectively dealt with by the Law.
In the yesterday's case the Killer was home-grown and known to British Intelligence for being sympathetic to ISIS.
As such he was a 5th columnist a term that dates back to the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s.
Granted, in usual circumstances just being sympathetic to evil is not sufficient to warrant lock-up but of course dear reader these are not usual circumstances...we are at War with Radical Jihad and anyone who expresses sympathy for our enemy is our enemy too.
Now some would say the West does not have the ability to survey all potential 5th columnists 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and to some extent they are correct.
However given with advances in electronic eavesdropping it is now relatively easy to keep up-to-date on potential risks without resorting to the 24/7 intensive approach.
So if these characters want to sympathize with our enemy evil Jihad, let's treat them like the enemy they are and ...Lock Them Up For The Duration.
As I see it....
