Al Qaeda spoils its nest. Again. 


Osama bin Laden's popularity in Pakistan has fallen dramatically -- in half, actually, since last summer -- which the pollsters attribute to rising violence in that country. Al Qaeda's doctrinal insistence on slaughtering civilians is to blame, as it has been in every country before. The jihadis grow in popularity among Muslims when they attack Westerners, but they quickly become pariahs when they fight war the al Qaeda way inside Muslim countries. It really is that simple. That is why it is to our advantage to fight al Qaeda there, rather than here. Yes, Muslims will, according to polls, hate us more than if we kept to ourselves and took the hits, but they will support al Qaeda and -- at best -- stay on the fence until the war comes home to them.

Modify the old cliché "Tell it to the Marines" thusly:
Tell it to the Democrats.

If jihadists grow in popularity when they attack westerners, if Muslims really had a "shared cultural heritage with the West", as so many Islamic propagandists are now saying in order to cloud the minds of Westerners, then shouldn't Muslims exhibit revulsion en masse when Al Qaeda kills Westerners? But they don't, they exhibit joy. That shows the "moderate Muslim" to be a myth, lie, and fraud.

When writing about Osama and his clueless crew of Stone Age dolts, write the headline the way it should be written. These sub-human cretins didn't "spoil the nest" they crapped the bed.

This is why while the fly paper was a great bonus the real basis of the "Bush stradegy" was make the fight in their home not ours.

Why, because the radicals would be honor bound by culture to fight US in their home. Then since in a straight up fight they stood no chance of victory they would be forced to use their one true advantage "terrorism".

The result; thousands of dead fellow Muslims that did nothing but get fame on the infidel TV and Western Pansy circles. No matter who you are the idea that killing your own to "show the enemy invaders failure" is just straight up a loser.

Bottom line if Iraq had not had been divided along Sunni vs Shia/Kurd so strongly PRIOR TO and after the US invasion AQ would never had gotta away with justifying their terrorist slaughter of fellow Muslims as much as they have.

If say just half or a third of Sunni had joined the gov after the invasion at the cost of a third of kurds and Shia I believe the moderate Muslims would have woke up much earlier than they finally did. The idea it was just infidels was ironically transposed in Iraq to it was just Shia/Kurds.

That was until enough Sunni finally started flipping in 05'-06' Anbar rat runs campaign. Then all the Muslim world soon learned the true face of terrorism.
