They didn't join Bush. They joined the United States. What's your solution -- cave in to bin Laden and convert to Islam? Unless you do, he'll chop your head off.

You ought to take off for Holland with AmSpit. It will be tulip season before long, and the two of you can enjoy the tulips and windmills together.

Jihad (Holy War)
Jihad is one of many sacred duties Muslims perform. The word "Jihad" is an Arabic word, which means, "struggle". Jihad can mean striving to be a better Muslim, but it can also mean fighting in the name of Allah. In this sense
Jihad is the struggle for the cause of spreading Islam, using all means available to Muslims, including force. This kind of Jihad is often referred to as "Holy War".

In resorting to force, Muslims will not have any problem finding passages in the Quran (believed by Muslims to be Allah's word), and the Hadith (Mohammed's sayings as recorded by Al Bukhari), that will not only condone violence, but will also demand it.

Al Qaida bombed Spain. Why did did we attack Saddam instead of stay after AL Qaida? I don't see Saddam or Libya bombing anyone in the past ten years.
