Why They Lose
Britian unveils its plan to combat terrorism:
Islamic extremists could escape prosecution and instead receive therapy and counselling under new Government plans to "deradicalise" religious fanatics.
...the new plan makes clear that people who fall under the influence of violent organisations will not automatically face prosecution.
Instead, the presumption should be that some such individuals would face therapy and counselling from community groups instead of criminal charges.

You know who needs therapy? Those friggin nutjob liberals who actually believe terrorists can be talked out of being terrorists.

I’ve seen multiple counts of how bad McCain is on you Blog (which is great by the way). However, he will be the best candidate for supporting the 2nd amendment. And in the end that is the most important amendment. Don’t get me wrong, I believe he is a Democrat in Republican clothing, but relative to Hill and O, he will support the 2nd the most out of the three.

The West is doomed because of morons taking over. The lunatics are running the asylum and WE are paying for it - with our riches and soon our freedoms and then our lives.
I remember a cartoon with a white guy and a Muslim in a sensitivity class and the Muslim is holding the head of the Westerner while the teacher says that the West is not being sensitive enough. I'll have to see if I can find it for you

The only way to "deradicalize" a fanatic is to have him counseled Directly by G-d.... Personally, and in His Presence.
Morons

If you should not be allowed to walk the public streets unattended:Here's your sign.
”We do not want to put through the criminal justice system those who are vulnerable to, or are being drawn into, violent extremism unless they have clearly committed an offence,” a Home Office report says.
These morons think that biting a pickle on the other end is somehow gonna be an improvement!
This inanity is part and parcel to controlling the language, never mind the actuality relating to terrorist actions. PWNED by culls! Now THAT is what defines a live loser! The dead ones have no comment.

Bruce said: "The West is doomed because of morons taking over."
Bruce, I'm not so sure they are morons. I think they are more like sheep (in fact, I commonly refer to them as "sheeple"). Here's my theory: there are 2 types of people -- sheep and dogs.
Most humans are (or at least, used to be) like dogs -- they like to belong to a pack (community), they are loyal, active, defensive of their home turf, and (generally) intelligent and loving. That describes most people.
Some dogs, however, are vicious. We'll call them "mad dogs" or "wolves". They will attack unarmed prey whenever they can in order to gain some measure of control and domination. The terrorists are like mad dogs and wolves. They want control and they can be vicious when they attack. What's worse, like a dog in the distance, you can't always tell if the dog is vicious merely by looking at it from afar.
The liberals and bureaucrats, however, are like sheep. They view life as an ideal green pasture where we should all be eating freely and be free from predators. They want all dogs locked within the barnyard fence so they can graze leisurely without having to see or hear the dogs.
One day, very soon I imagine, the sheeple will call on the big dogs to protect them from the wolves again... it will happen. It always does.

ProphetJoe,
Your philosophy is very similar to my own. The people who elect the liberals are also sheep because the public school system and media (cartoons, kid's shows, etc.) teach them it's always wrong to fight. Well, when you're fighting your fellow students, that's true. When the wolves and rabid dogs are trying to tear out your throat and eat you, fighting is not only necessary, but the right thing to do.
We need a few more sheep dogs in this country. Keep on barking at the wolves and the stupid sheep.
The only way to de-radicallize a terrorist is to lower his body temperature to room temperature. Shalom.
