It may not make everyone happy, but our peace and safety could well require the will to take "irregular steps" against known threats. A few final thoughts... "If you aren't pre-emptive, you could be pre-empted." So, a concern over political correctness could get a lot of Americans killed.

In this Fox NY interview below on Thursday, 9/11 firefighter Tim Brown describes the mosque project as "a Trojan horse being rolled into our most sacred ground". He squared off with the mosque's imam, Feisal Abdul Rauf, asking whether any of the money for this mosque will be coming from the regimes of Islamic countries who have actively aided and financed Islamic terrorists, and where Rauf got the reported $4.85 million in cash to purchase the building, prompting profuse evasion and side-stepping by the imam. Tim Brown is one of the few 9/11 survivors to survive the collapse of both WTC towers. He also a first responder to the 1993 WTC bombing by another group of Islamic terrorists.

LONG WAR JOURNAL.org: "HIZBUL ISLAM SPOKESMAN INVITES BIN LADEN TO SOMALIA" by Bill Roggio (SNIPPET: "Hizbul Islam and Shabaab are considered the two top Islamist insurgent groups in Somalia. While Shabaab is widely recognized as having close ties to al Qaeda, many counterterrorism analysts and African experts consider Hizbul Islam a domestic, nationalist insurgency with no links to foreign terror groups. But Hizbul Islam is a radical Islamist group whose top leader has ties to al Qaeda. The group is led by Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys, who is wanted by the US for his links to al Qaeda. He is also on the United Nations terrorist sanctions list, again for his ties to al Qaeda." SNIPPET: "Last September, Aweys advocated more suicide attacks in the country, just days after suicide bombers struck an African Union base in Mogadishu.")

It added: "This does not preclude possible attacks on other large vessels with dangerous cargo." The Navy Centre's advisory reportedly said: "The terrorists' intent is probably to achieve widespread publicity and showcase that it remains a viable group." It reminded shipping operators that the militants could use smaller vessels such as dinghies and speedboats to attack oil tankers. It recommended that ships should "strengthen their onboard security measures and adopt community reporting to increase awareness and strengthen the safety of all seafarers," according to the Association.")

Because would-be jihadists and martyrs have been known to frequent strip bars -- such as the 9/11 hijackers and Major Nidal Hasan, whose "late-night jiggle-joint carousing stands at odds with the picture of a devout Muslim" -- many Americans have concluded that such men cannot be "true" Muslims, leading to the ubiquitous conviction that they are "hijacking Islam." In fact, Islamists rely on several rationalizations -- doctrines, even -- that make "jiggle-joint carousing" consistent with Muslim piety. Considering that Islamic law permits sex slaves (Koran 4:3), permits their masters to keep them topless, and makes sex one of the highest paradisiacal rewards, this should come as no great surprise.
