Who is winning?


Islamism - The solution

Violent, radical, utopian Islamism poses a global challenge to all free societies. How big that challenge is remains to be seen. But the solution to that challenge is clear. The solution is not to appease these violent, intolerant religious bigots. The solution is that America and the West must assert themselves. The Islamic world must change.

Ultimately, by a long cold war and a few hot wars, the modern totalitarian ideology of Islamism must be destroyed. Islamism - or any ideology that denies religious freedom - should have no place in our world.

Pessimism

It is clear that the West is under imminent nuclear threat. It is clear that if Al-Qa'ida get a nuclear weapon, they will use it immediately.




Optimism - Let's change the world

To prevent nuclear attack on the West, Islamism must be defanged and destroyed.

America's lasting reaction to Sept 11th may not be the reaction bin Laden expected. America's strong, lasting reaction is: Let's change the Middle East.


Offence, not defence


Let's change the Middle East

The plan

  1. Afghanistan - Al-Qa'ida, who had attacked America, and killed thousands of Americans for no reason, were supported by the Taliban of Afghanistan. The US, incredibly reasonably, offered to allow the Taliban butchers to stay in power enslaving their own people if they would hand over Al-Qa'ida. The Taliban refused. So the US took out the Al-Qa'ida bases and destroyed the Taliban regime, in just five weeks.

  2. Iraq - The butcher Saddam Hussein enslaved his people and threatened the world. The US, incredibly reasonably, offered to allow him remain in power, murdering and torturing and robbing his own people, if he ceased to threaten the rest of the world. Saddam refused. So the US destroyed his entire regime, in just three weeks.

  3. Libya folds without even waiting to be invaded:

    Status as at 2007:
    Just 2 states are supporting fighters killing Americans: Iran and Syria (in Iraq).
    Just 2 states are supporting fighters killing Israelis: Iran and Syria (apart from the Palestinian Authority itself).
    Just 1 state is trying to get nuclear weapons: Iran.
    Just got them: North Korea.
    Already has them: Pakistan.

  4. Iran - Time for the mullahs to go. The Islamic revolution was a failure and it is time to abandon it.

  5. North Korea - Now probably the most evil, unstable, dangerous regime in the world.

  6. Saudi Arabia - The source of anti-American and anti-Jewish poison.

  7. Sudan - Another candidate for the most evil regime in the world.

This is great. No moral equivalence. No blaming it on western foreign policy, or "root causes". No complaints about America, Iraq, India or Israel. Just complaints about Islamist terror.




"This is an amazing victory, a victory over a monster who gassed civilians, jailed children, sent millions into fruitless wars, harbored poisonous weapons to threaten free peoples, tortured thousands, and made alliances with every two-bit opportunist on the planet. It's a victory over those who marched in the millions to stop this liberation, over the endless media cynics, over the hate-America crowd, and the armchair generals. It's a victory for the two countries in the world that have always made freedom possible and who have now brought it to another corner of the world made dark by terror. It's a victory for the extraordinary servicemen and women who performed this task with such skill, cool, courage and restraint. It's a victory for optimism over pessimism, the righting of past wrongs, the assertion of universal truths against postmodern excuses, and of political leadership over appeasement. Celebrate it. Don't let the whiners take this away from you"
- Andrew Sullivan on the fall of Iraq, 2003

"Let's get rid of them all"
- Tony Blair on the regimes of the unfree world.

"I will do whatever the Americans want, because I saw what happened in Iraq, and I was afraid."
- An unnamed dictator, quoted by Silvio Berlusconi after the Iraq war.
It turns out it was Gaddafi!

"Others understand the historic importance of our work. The terrorists know. They know that a vibrant, successful democracy at the heart of the Middle East will discredit their radical ideology of hate. They know that men and women with hope and purpose and dignity do not strap bombs on their bodies and kill the innocent. The terrorists are fighting freedom with all their cunning and cruelty because freedom is their greatest fear - and they should be afraid, because freedom is on the march. ... I believe that America is called to lead the cause of freedom in a new century. I believe that millions in the Middle East plead in silence for their liberty. I believe that given the chance, they will embrace the most honorable form of government ever devised by man. ... This young century will be liberty's century. By promoting liberty abroad, we will build a safer world. ... Like generations before us, we have a calling from beyond the stars to stand for freedom."
- President Bush's speech, Republican National Convention, Sept 2004.
