SO, WHAT SHALL WE CALL THEM?

According to the Associated Press, documents it obtained reveal that Federal Agencies have instructed their employees to stop describing Islamists as "Jihadists" or "Mujahedeen" and not to call them "Islamo-Fascists," a term favored by Roach Limburger and his dodoheads. The Bush administration believes that such terms may actually help increase support for Jihadists within Muslim audiences by "giving them a veneer of religious credibility or by causing offense to moderates."

Hmmmm, the Bush administration is going to wage a kinder and gentler war on terrorism so as not to offend any "moderate" Muslims. Are they going to have federal employees take sensitivity training? God forbid that we might offend all those Muslims who love us so dearly. Has the administration taken leave of its senses or do they really believe that by not using those terms, they will make it difficult for the Islamists to recruit suicide bombers?

Let's see now. Who was it that bombed the U.S. Marine Corps barracks in Lebanon? Who bombed our embassies in Africa? Who bombed that train in Madrid? Who bombed the three London subway trains and a bus? Who were the doctors that plotted car bombings in England? Who in England plotted to blow up seven jumbo-jet airliners simultaneously over the Atlantic? Were they Anglicans? Or, Catholics? No, they were all Muslims.

And who took over our airliners to crash them into the Twin Towers and into the Pentagon, thereby causing the deaths of 3,000 innocent people? Were they Baptists? Catholics? Jews? Buddhists? Hindus? Or, how about Atheists? No, no, no! They were Muslims, each and everyone of them. Should we be sensitive to their feelings and avoid offending them? Hell no! It's we Americans who have been offended by Muslims, and big time to boot.

So, what shall we call those Islamists? We can always call them by the name their Marxist supporters use - "Freedom Fighters." Or, how about Boy Suiciders of Islam and Girl Suiciders of Islam? Or, the Salvation Army? - No, that name has already been taken. How about Muhammad's Martyrs? 72 Virgins in Heaven Seekers? Allah's Avengers? Infidel Terminators? Or, whatever.

Mr. President, please spare us that Political Correctness crap. You know what? I think plain old "Muslim Terrorists" will do just fine. No matter what we do or do not call them, the Islamists will keep on recruiting more terrorists, and do so quite successfully. And, if by calling them Islamo-Fascists and other names we end up offending those Muslims who believe America is the Great Satan or who equate Christians to swine and Jews to apes, that's just tough shit!
