WILL THE DUTCH BOW TO IRAN?
The makers of Jerry Springer: The Opera may have annoyed many Christians. The Christian response was not to murder them.
Yeah well ..... if they had the world might be a better place. Anyway , they didn’t do that mostly because they were probably afraid to. Hmmm, even for me that looks over the top but to be honest, that whole springer thing is sewer and nothing less. Don’t see why a nice cleansing would have been amiss.

Gee, too bad the Dutch don’t have an army. Too bad their government will knuckle under to Iran. Because when the threat is “or suffer the consequences” and you’ve got nothing to push back with ... what can they do?
Don’t give up hope just yet. For a long time, the French looked as if they were going go roll over for the Islamists, then there was a “minor” change in their government....
French Police Raid Housing Projects
VILLIERS-LE-BEL, France - More than 1,000 police officers swooped in on housing projects outside of Paris Monday, detaining 35 people in pre-dawn raids meant to flush out those who took part in violent riots late last year, officials said.
Would it be too much to hope that this will spread to England and the United States?
The ACLU is going to be an interesting question. It’s been decades since they did anything even remotely related to actually defending the Bill of Rights. There isn’t much question that the Islamists and many of their more moderate kin want to seriously abridge the rights of any and all non Moslems. So, how will the ACLU react? On one hand, they have a sickening track record in recent decades and on the other hand, they will be faced with gross violations of everything they claim to stand for. Get set for a bumpy ride.
Frankly, the situation in England is going to be a curious question. There really hasn’t been a populist political change since the end of WWII when Labour took over and dumped Churchill. How much of that was actually populist and how much was the machinations of the Communist party still remains a question. What kind of quiet political accommodations and payoffs are being made between the Islamists and British politicians? For that matter, where is the Royal Family on the subject? For decades, their roll has been entirely symbolic, but what will happen if Prince William or Prince Harry gets up on his legs and declares that England is for the English? Being kept from service in Iraq is rather humbling for the descendant of British Kings and Queens who are more accustomed to meeting the enemy head on.
God, I wish I had even half as many answers as I do questions.
