The Flying Carpet is Grounded

Europe has clamped down on immigration and even visits from muslim countries such as SA, pakistan etc. US is doing the same. U are not welcome anymore into the civilized world. When the muslims come (including some others) they are photographed, fingerprinted and "booked" like criminals - hey, we have to protect ourselves against assholes like Atta, Moosavi etc. The only thing is they are not given an anklet. One day the technology will be such that the unwanted and the dangerous will be tagged in a noninvasive manner that these bastards can be followed by a satellite system and the monitor would know exactly where these bastards are at a given time. O yea, Civil rights!. If an animal wants to attack a civilized people, that animal loses its civil rights and will be branded - not with a hot iron, Us is too cultured and compassionate for such a thing- and tagged for the purpose of monitoring. Of course, they can forget about flying lessons, crop-dusting, death-chemistry, nuclear physics etc. The surveillance equipment like cameras can be programmed to follow certain facial types like that of Atta, whenever they visit our monuments. The technology is not far off to lock on a marked face and follow that face throughout the building. They can go back and entertain themselves with camel-racing--just don't employ the third world muslim children to serve as the camel jockeys. (There goes the myth that Allah's children are equal.) Your destructive "civilization" is at loggerheads with the other civilizations in such ways that you pay the price of being shunned by everybody. The world has changed since 9/11 and you have to clean up your act or face the music - I know music (sweet sounds) belongs to infidel and not to your belief system. You are grounded and your carpet will be sent for dusting by long sticks and daisy cutters.

Won't happen because of India's stupidity. But it would have been a great idea. Getting the US and the British to enforce order along the LoC is the only solution that makes sense.

JPR, it would be suicidal for the US and the British troops to be stationed on the LoC. And here is why. These troops, if they are stationed on the Afghan/Pakistan border would not be that vulnerable to attacks from the Osamas and Talibanis since they have air cover and surveillance from US base in Kandahar. Instead, if they move to the LoC, then they have nowhere to go if there is a military confrontation between them and terrorists who have infiltrated and infested the Pakistani side of the LoC.

On the other hand, the US can have India do that job of eliminating the terrorist camps while it (the US) provides nuclear cover from Paki nukes by securing them in a swoop. India, as we know have no territorial designs in Pakistan, not even the Pakistan held part of Kashmir. If India had those designs, then they would not have retreated from Lahore during the 1976 conflict. The Indian army was on the outskirts of Lahore then. The Indian army withdrew from Lahore and forced Pakistan to peace talks resulting in a peace agreement at the Simla summit. A similar thing needs to be done now.

It is noteworthy that China, who typically opposes India at the drop of a hat, is not opposing India and siding with Pakistan (albeit blindly) on this issue. They are well aware that very soon Muslim radicalism would overtake their Communist regime if they do not side with India and contain the threat now.
