Blame the Jews!

Well, I am sorry to hear that. But seriously, doesn't it get old to have all the world's problems blamed on you? I mean, I've read a good chunk of the Old Testament, and it seems like the Jews have been getting blamed for over 3,000 years.

It's my assessment that Muslims are now more focused on Europe. The EU will never, ever be a world power. The potential is there, but post-modern liberalism is an infection it just can't shake. The population decline and the will not to use military force will their heads below the water.

That's why, I think, they are going after Europe, not Israel. Sure, Hamas and Hezbollah will still be funded by Iran (they want access to the Mediterranean to control the oil shipments), and the terrorists won't let up, but I truly believe that more and more Muslims see Europe as being weaker than Israel.

There's no doubt that liberals will be the first to go. But I'm sure some of them will convert to Islam. Oh, they won't like it, and they'll probably still blame Bush or Israel for it, but they'll do it to save their hides.

I really hope your family gets some perspective. Mine are pretty much the same way. Selfish democrats who believe the media. Why? Because my cousins got sent to Iraq.
