Gosh, why should we care that Islamists are operating in Somalia?……

Yes, and as several other people have pointed out in other threads on the HA site, “There is no cure for STUPID.”
Time for me to add the CyberCipher corollary to this principle, because not only is there no cure for stupid, but “In Western Civilization, there is no shortage of STUPID (either).”

I think Einstein said it best:

There are two things in this world which are universal: Hydrogen and stupidity–and I’m not sure about hydrogen.

No, FLATTEN them!

Thank you, Ethies!

“It’s self-defense,” said Amare Aregawi, editor of the Reporter newspaper and a former rebel fighter. “People always say, ‘Don’t touch the terrorists. You’ll aggravate them.’ What are we supposed to do? Flatter them?”

Lengthen that “r” some and you’ve got my idea of flatten them.

And yet, are they saying they would prohibit all immigration (or visits) from an Islamist Somalia? Doubt it.

I do thank Ethiopia for having the guts to stand up to Islamofascism.

It’s still damn nice of him to provide that nice target on his forehead.

What’d he do? Go to Ash Wednesday a couple months early?

WSJ readers respond to Joseph Rago’s blog-bashing Lefties wonder why U.S. should care about Islamists governing Somalia (More later I’m sure.)…

As for those “less left,” i.e., the people we call “liberals,” they are simply useful idiots who can’t seem to grasp that our enemies don’t have the same sense of nuance and pastiche that they do, where us “neocons” (that’s liberal code talk for Zionist Jews who have taken over the government and the media, irrespective of whether or not we actually are Jewish, BTW) are simply not capable of understanding that a few hugs, a few choruses of Kumbyah will heal all the world’s ills. Our liberal friends simply cannot understand the our enemies have a 7th Century mindset where the only “nuance” they care about is wither to use an axe or a sword when chopping off heads, or when they slit throats, do they work the knife left-to-right or right-to-left.

Until proven otherwise, leftists ARE traitors as far as I am concerned.

And because they hate America and act in all respects to help destroy her, the left wants to see the ICU prevail in Somalia, so that Al Qaeda can carry on “God’s Work” and continue it’s quest to destroy America and kill us all. After all, Socialism and the rule of Marx cannot rise as long as the evil American government stands unbowed.

Names? Who cares what their names are or where they are.

It would be a political problem while critics complain that he has escaped, insinuating that Osama has freedom of travel rather than the administration’s claim that he is cornered.

But then we would have him right where we want him. In a place we can bomb to hell. All this assumes he isn’t already safe in Iran (taking hot showers and eating hot food).

Well, Patty Murray would.
