You should never assume.

Belgian Neo-Nazis? It just seems so anti-waffel.

Wow, sometimes it is neo-Nazis. I guess I shouldn’t have made fun of the movie adaptation of Sum of All Fears.

A broad strata of Belgians.

Huh, and we’re sure none of these guys have a name with Mohammad in it?

Not that I’m assuming of course.

If the Truthers are aloud to submit that Bush Co. is behind 9/11 and every Bin Laden video, etc. I suppose it’s appropriate for me to submit that this is a staged event by the far left and Europe to appease Muslims and blast those who say “Islamic fascism”.

The favorite flavor enemy of the left, next to Christian fundamentalists, actually more cherished than Zionists as a diversionary enemy.

Has Clinton called upon NATO yet?

Forgot, he isn’t President.

Has Clinton called upon the shadow NATO yet?

What kind of waffles are those guys eating? Belgium really is a suicidal nation. These Nazis should ask themselves WWHD? What would Hitler do? Evil is sweeping the world. Meanwhile, the Belgian government is beating up on the editor of the Brussels Journal for homeschooling.

That’s interresting. More arrests of potential terrorists. It seems like we’ve been seeing a lot more of this sort of think lately. So, if this phenomenon rally is increasing in frequency, what’s the reason?

1. Better intelligence that enables us to detect more of what’s out there?
(This would be good news, because it would mean we are improving interdiction and therefore removing more of the scum, thereby reducing their numbers).

2. We haven’t gotten better. There are just more of them?
(This would be bad news, for obvious reasons).

3. A combination of both inproved interdiction and an increase in their numbers?
(better than #2, but not as good as #1).

We need to find them, and neutralize them, …HOWEVER we can. We are NOT going to win this world war with Islamists by good defense alone. And it would be a whole LOT easier if the idiot Leftists would stop their obstructionism!
