It's a festering hell hole already.
We've done what we could. We've sacrificed enough for those barbarians.
It's time for the troops to come home with their heads held high.

then ALL muslims in the west must be sent to those countries as if we keep letting them in we will suffer the consequences. They will descend into chaos, be well trained by bin Fuckup, then come back to bite us in the ass.

Children As Bombs
The American Spectator ^ | 9/19/2006 | Ralph R. Reiland

As if things weren't crazy enough already in the Middle East, here's the officially sanctioned message in sixth-grade Palestinian textbooks for 11- and 12-year-old kids: "The noble soul has two goals: death and the desire for it."...It's Jonestown, writ large, a cult of suicide for the collective, for Palestine. Israel isn't on the maps in the Palestinian textbooks.

...A recent article in Rolling Stone, "The Unending Torture of Omar Khadr," tells the story of a 15-year-old captured by U.S. troops in Afghanistan ....

"Born into a fundamentalist Muslim family in Toronto," Omar Khadr "had been prepared for jihad since he was a small boy," reports Jeff Tietz. "His parents had raised him to believe that religious martyrdom was the highest achievement he could aspire to...

Before he turned 12, Omar had formal military training in bomb-making, assault-rifle marksmanship...and sniper tactics.

...After [the son] refused, his father, suspecting a weakening of faith, told him, "If you ever betray Islam, I will be the one to kill you."

What the aforementioned young people could use is some major deprogramming. For starters, the suicide-promoting poetry in their curriculum could be replaced with some Ayn Rand, the perfect antidote for self-immolation.

Rand warns against "death-worshipping mystics" who control and humiliate through the use of guilt and fear, preaching that a man's pursuit of happiness here on earth is evidence of depravity and selfishness, that his independent mind is a source of arrogance, his body a source of evil, that his liberty, self-esteem and individuality are desecrations of the commandments for obedience, humility, suffering, renunciation and self-sacrifice.

"There is no way to make a human being accept the role of a sacrificial animal," writes Rand, "except by destroying his self-esteem."

Ralph R. Reiland is professor of economics at Robert Morris University in Pittsburgh.
