See the AINA post from early this morning for details about the bombing and the official response to it.
Many thanks to Vlad Tepes for YouTubing this video. Caution: although the footage in this video is not graphic, some of the images are intense:
At the siege of Vienna in 1683 Islam seemed poised to overrun Christian Europe.
We are in a new phase of a very old war.

Notice how CNN frames it as "Christian - Muslim tension" and "Christians have long complained..." etc. etc.
It is the same way the media speaks of Palestinian terrorism as "Israeli - Palestinian violence."
What is happening in Egypt is not "Christian - Muslim tensions" but an increasingly fundamentalist (and orthodox, I might add) Muslim population routinely persecuting a Christian minority. It has been going on for centuries but with a slight decrease due to a handful of decades of British rule and subsequent secular leadership.
Now Egypt is returning to its violent and oppressive Muslim heritage. The main difference is that the Christians of today are not quite as used to as their ancestors, so they are reacting much less submissively.
I´m from Spain
Here in Spain, we have a huge problem with the muslims
BAN ISLAM NOW !!!
If anyone gets the "WWPGVIIID?" They have my full aquiescence if they want to make bumperstickers or whatever.
Of course to be accurate it should be WWPUIID but the first choice looks better.

People have been saying- it's good that 9/11 was so long ago. Finally people are getting some perspective.
Here's some perspective:
9 years ago after a jihad inspired mass murder brought down two buildings and killed thousands, people of all faiths, cultures and backgrounds rushed immediately to the scene to rescue survivors and then stayed for months to unearth the dead and bring some sort of peace to the grieving loved ones. Condolances and statements of both sorrow and solidarity for a grieving nation came from all corners of the world.
Over there they stomp on the victims bodies, yell triumphal cries, loot the victims businesses while their spiritual (Spiritual!)leaders make statements such as "THEY are in OUR country" and knowingly lie to the world in an attempt to shift blame away from themselves and onto whichever current petty political enemy they have in order to score political points off of the suffering they themselves have contributed to.
That's all we need to know.
Actually there are two more things I would like to know.
When will we have the power to kick these moral [imbeciles] out of the UN.
And lastly: WWPGVIIID?
Makes a good bumpersticker, no?
I had to delete another one, too. I don't have time to fix all these.
Please stop using foul language.
