... be a Muslim right now.

I'm a little slow catching up on posts today...lets just say I have been busy at the Bin Laden Liquor Site... :)

I won't try to repeat what has already been responded to this post.
I would like to point out that Pakistan is right now making a great stand in the Muslim world. They are a giant stick in the mud to those who want to tell us to "rethink Palestine". Pakistan is THE example of a country that was involved in terrorism and has chosen to condemn it and support freedom. Pakistan makes it hard for those countries fearing the "Wahhabi" thinking to justify it. Pakistan is making it very hard for those countries to reject our extended hand in treating them as a friend if they cease and fight terrorism in thier own countries. Notice that Musharraf hasn't once even hinted at giving in to any of that "Wahhabi" thinking since he committed his country to freedom. I know Pakistan is a powder keg... It appears Musharraf is doing a good job of fighting that minority. It appears that the Pakistani silent majority is taking a stand for freedom.
Furthermore...that stupid Islamic League that met last night. Where they agreed we should rethink our policy toward Palestine and they didn't want any "eye for an eye" action. We should make it clear to them that our stance (taken from a biblical reference as theirs is) isn't an eye for an eye...it is actually: "You have bruised my heel. Now I will crush your head."
