Telling Muslims they should grow a thick skin or be more like Infidels accomplishes nothing

Neither does a careful explanation of hate speech under Infidel laws. That's because Islam doesn' t operate under, or respect, Infidel laws. Islam operates under Sharia law. Period.

There is only one solution, and that involves a newly powerful America, a newly wealthy America and a newly energy independent America. Presidents have pledged that America would energy independent since Carter, but it has never happened. We need to find out why not.

One possibility? Follow the money. Who benefits from the status quo of American dependency? All the oil producing Islamic nations. Who else? The extreme environmentalists. I wonder how much Saudi oil money is laundered here and then donated to extremist environmental causes.
