Maybe you're true love #29 in this girls' life. Maybe you really are an asshole.

Ok champ the balls back in your court.

Please quote for me, with specific examples that highlight such things as "I agree with..." or "Such and person is someone I support....."

Please do. Take as much time as you like. Please please please tell me in all the gory details about all the people "On my side...." With specific examples. Thank you.

Ok we all prostrate ourselves with obligatory worship of WW2. And oourse we flagellate ourselves with obligatory Vietnam guilt. And we're kind of ignorant of all those lesser wars and warlettes like Grenada, Panama, Bosnia/Kosovo. And Gulf War 1 wasn't long enough to develop a blog worthy overblown opinion over. But why do Korean War vets always get screwed. Can't radicals form an appropriate message about racism? Didn't enough nonwhite people die? Didn't it ultimately end, or not end, as the case may be, kind of oddly? Isn't Big Bwana Assmurrica still there bein all white and Assmurrican and globalist and shit? Don't we secretly admire North Korea?

Help me out why is it no one remembers that nearly as many Americans died in ~3 years in Korea as in the entire VN conflict? And why is it the media and the DoD never really pay attention?

Gee some of you are painfully uninformed.

Which has pitched headlong into the multicultural stew, it's generated nothing but divisions among people. See when you sanctify the difference between people, real or imagined, you give everyone an excuse to imagine that they are better than anyone else. As a result, all the 'different-ness' creates frictions between people and, worse, creates an environment where anyone can and should be encouraged to create yet more divisions on their own? Got a union of Lesbian Albanian circus midgets??? Are they LEFT handed???

I applaud the Danes. We wish them well with that. Now the moderate Muslims can face off against the radical Muslims.

It's a freakin novel. Only the truly unmedicated or the blogging class would try to project a secret conspiracy into it.

I could have sworn I heard you folks claiming first hand deity given absolute proof. For years. And years. At some point even you folks have to admit that you're engaging in the same kind of fearmongering as Bush.

It real real simple, honey. You claimed to have proof and what I do and do not support and advocate. Put up, and/or shut up. Point to it. Or admit you are a namecalling fraud.

True bees we'd like to have but not because we enjoy their buzzing. Because industrial bee polination is multi hundreds of millions of dollars industry. At least 200 million dollars would disappear from NC alone if bee polination ceased and those crops failed. Man has not come up with a better technical solution than the lowly bee for managing whole classes of cultivated plants.

Which of our non-allies in the mid east, west Asia are in fact more liberal and democratic open societies than the ones we support? Are Yemeni elections somehow more tainted than Algerian elections for instance? Is Kazhakstan nominally more 'free' than Uzbekistan? Are the upper middle class people of the Gulf States somehow worse off than the Freedom smelling

patriots of....where? Sudan?

And more importantly, in the context of middle eastern, west asian geo politics, what exactly IS an ally? A customer? A friend? A country of shared values? What? Seems that in reality all of these states are simply looking for the best overall bargain wherever they can. Iran for instance buys nuclear technology and weapons from Russia using German credit. Syria does more or less the same thing but with the help of French banks. Libya, ditto, and so on. I'm left wondering what you think who is an ally who is not and by what measure this one or that one ranks anywhere near what you or I would call nominally open?

Than their home cultures make their host country something else you're mistaken.

In other words the great pull of the west is its ability to embrace and include immigrants to the extent that they WANT to become part of their new country. After all, all the millions of immigrants who came to the US 1880-1910 eventually all became Americans more than America became more Ukrainian, Irish, Russian, Slovak and such. Same with most other countries that people choose to come to. I suspect Muslim Danes have more to worry about losing their Muslim identity in Denmark than they do overturning the country and making it a Sharia-Lite state. I could be wrong on this but I don't think so. If Muslims want political power in the EU it will come at the expense of their self professed cultural 'uniqueness'. Because time and time again it's been proven that you can't have backwards looking relgious fundamentalism implanted from outside a country and have it thrive side by side with modernism. Something's got to give. Either Muslims become as Muslim as today's young people in Ireland are as Irish as their grandparents. Or, the Muslims in the EU become permanent enclaves walling themselves off into special relgious courts, rules, schools, and such. It's possible that Multicultural EU would be willing to do that but that too comes at the price of essentially evaporating the boundaries of their own countries. Now this is not to say there are real issues for them. For instance Lyon France is probably 40% Muslim today. It is its own enclave. The challenge is to figure out a way to prevent it from going off the rails, culturally speaking.
