1 Targetting Moscow kept the Soviets from doing something stupid, didn't it? Tancredo is onto something. They blow NYCity, we blow Mecca.

2 Yes, but being radioactive doesn't mean that it still won't be considered holy. These are people who blow themselves up in the name of Allah, mind you. Just a thought.

3 These people don't want to be responsible for triggering the destruction of Mecca. It would forfeit them their 72 virgins.

4 Its either slow trickle in an eternal war...or something drastic like in WWII. I say nuke em!

5 One word: Glassworks.

6 Jesus. I just read the kos comments, and I think the goathumpers are probably taking it better. Those morons all need taken out and shot, and I'd be glad to be the trigger man. I look forward to the day...

7 Destruction of Mecca? Are you INSANE?? Mecca has nothing to do with the stupid hijinks of Nutball George and Tiny's Crusade. Grow up you frothy mouthed warhounds before someone comes over there and gives you a rabies shot!

8 Way overboard on this one. If we can't distinguish between civilian and military targets, what is the distinction between us and the terrorists?

9 Mark J - Dr. Teresa Whitehead wrote an article just for you:http://www.antiwar.com/whitehurst/?articleid=6699 All the killing and rampaging is just that.. killing and rampaging! Time for Christians and patriots to stand up to George and Tiny's Crusade and take back Christianity and patriotism from those thuggish bloody beasts!

10 Gimprobulus, Klanrooster, Thingus and other explosively insane wackos on Jawa are so hell-bent for revenge that they advocate widespread killing on a near-genocidal level to avenge their inner demon desires. Why do you hate people so much? I hate wasp nests and scumbag liars, but I care not about the Arabs because they didn't do anything to me. That Bush has got you brainwashed, insane in the membrane, believing his sick, sick lies. Sick, I tell you, sick sick sick.

11 No way. Tancredo should be ashamed of this comment. I would expect this kind of stupidity from the American Left, not the GOP. The bombing of Mecca (or Medina) would serve no purpose other than to piss them off further. That's why we're not in Saudi Arabia in the first place - you just know the terrorists would retreat into the Holy Shrines in those two cities wand we wouldn't be able to get at them - political suicide. And political suicide always takes precedence over actual homicides, as we know. Is bombing Teheran still an option though?

12 If the beardos set off a nuke in the USA? Hmmmmmmmm. What to do what to do.....(tapping temple with pointer finger all the while employing the white man's overbite)....... Ding! Destroy every holy site known to their disgusting "religion" and they can burn their feet on spit atoms when they try to Haj.

13 Put a wall across the Mexican border and increase the patrol on the Canadian side. In my opinion, the Mexican border is way too porous. Shut down the mosques, and outlaw islam. I know. Liberal lemmings will cry that the Constitution forbids this, and goes against everything this country was built on. But to me, it seems that we've been fighting these islamic bastards on our own soil since before 9/11,(I'll use the the attempted millenium bombings as an example). We need to take steps to protect ourselves. If after this, the moon worshipers are still able to smuggle in a nuke, we should send DSM to Mecca. The suicide rate will soar, and we'll be shut of both the muslims, and DSM's moronic B.S.

14 Rear Echelon MotherF---er, you are a pretzel-twisted berzerker, a verically demented hallucination of the worst kind. Maybe we should take you and Obsnookie-snuggly to Mecca, have both of you exchange rings in a Massachusets Marriage on top of Bin Laden Groups' Hotels there and let the crowds decide the extent of your trespass. Sickness is in your brains, neocon whackjobs, Bush has you over a barrel getting boared, financialy ravaging your granchildren like a financial "Happy Joe" Duncan.

15 Nuke the Black Rock. We paid a lot of money for all those nukes. Lets just use them and bring our best young people home.

16 First step: respond to Islamic Advocacy Groups' immediate warnings of impending backlash. No, seriously, I agree with Ed Morrissey that the goal is not to give Osama the religious war he wants, but to ratchet up the response to a Spinal Tap-worthy 11 against ALL terror supporting states AND institutions. And regarding the backlash: it would be the final deadline for moderate Muslims to attach themselves to their country, unambiguously and aggressively separating themselves from the evil of their coreligionists. Muslims who unreservedly support America/"the West" are welcome to enjoy its freedoms and contribute to its success.

17 Mr. K, You are a boneheaded fool and a genocidalist in the core of your rancid heart. Our fine young people were sent overseas on a Bush mission based on a PACK OF LIES. They are fighting, killing and dying for Bush's PACK OF LIES. Wait, let me say that again in case you didn't hear me: A PACK OF LIES! To bring them home, we must say no the bloodthirsty Bushes who drink mixed drinks of blood and oil stirred and shaken with raw bones rattling in their frothy, fetid, flesh-chunked glasses. About the nukes in Mecca - pure insanity. Join Rear Echelon and ObSnuggly in a menage-a-Masssachusets wedding on top of the nicest hotel in Mecca. The crowds will surely be watching.

18 Beardo has already shown his "religon" to be bogus. Moooooehammid was nothing more than a cheap bazzaar sheep pimp who invented Islam inorder to corner the market on what ever he was selling from his dirty cart at the time.

19 My first inclination would be to glass the asshats as in, "all your bases belong to us." On second thought though we must change are mindset from one of first responders to first preventers. The former presupposes allowing a first strike by the enemy which SUCKS! Just posted this comment over at LGF yesterday: LGF Link I just posted these thoughts at WOC. We must play offense and not defense both on the ground and in the War of Information to ultmately crush the enemy and wipe its 12th Century ideology of hate and evil from the face of the earth. Then and only then will the GWOT be won. The Traditional LE Paradigm is Ill Prepared to deal with the GWOT WOC Link '

20 I can only wonder why we haven't nuked 'em before. The Japanese got with the program PDQ after we toasted a couple of their cities. Civilian casualties are regrettable, but better them than us.

21 Gimpy, you genocidal darling, want to go to Mecca and spout off how much you like the scenery? Nuclear Bombs are not for kids, especially Bushies and those cursed Cheneyite minions. May Greyrooster's hog-wild boar elope from his love nest and catch you trouserless over an oil barrel. Grunt Grunt!

22 I'm Home. Nice to see everyone getting on so well.

23 Moonbats didn't want to target the Soviets either cause that was mean too. But we did, and it worked. By targetting Mecca the object is not to destroy Mecca-- it's to keep the muslims from destroying New York.

24 Downing Street Hates Bush and da JOOOOOOOOOOOOS! All the fault of BUSHIES and the evil gollum like JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS!

25 Ron makes a good point about a first strike, but London's bomb strike only had people on the edge of their seats, so we can expect that there will be another major attack before significant action is taken. I would hope that for the past week-and-a-half the powers that be have been following money trails and shutting them down. I expect they've been using their undercovers in mosques and other likely gathering places, boards and websites to uncover what's next on the schedule of Allahdestruction. But it likely won't be enough. We will need to shut down the gears in the Mideast - the money and bank accounts, the supplies of any nature, the aid and comfort and the movement. It will need to be pretty widespread, and all necesseties will need to be rationed in order to control who gets them. US troops will be redeployed out of non-Muslim nations in order to begin exerting control on Muslim nations. All non-US passports will require extended screening, and travel out of the Mideast will have to be only in cases of extreme need. All nations that have exported weaponry or materials - either sanctioned or not by their government - will be put on notice that to do so is to declare war on the US, and will immediately face the same travel and banking restrictions as Muslim nations, plus US embargoes. All mosques, beginning in Afghanistan and Iraq, must be disbanded until cells are shut down and teaching abandons jihad. To teach jihad outside the US will be an act of war. Mosques in the US will be warned that any questionable activity or teaching of jihad is treason, and they will also be shut down and prosecuted as non-uniformed combatants. Their accounts will be restricted with no off-shore transfers. Both our allies and others will be put on notice that if they do not comply, similar restrictions will be applied to them. Do I think this and a number of other effective, non-"nuke 'em" strategies will happen? No, probably not even in the event of a nuclear strike. People at home will have to lose the liberties they see "innocent Muslims" suffering before they will support such action, and politicians know it. For those of you who abhor my suggestions because of the police state they imply, you might want to think about whether you will outlive the next strike on US soil to experience an Islamic-imposed sharia state. Under my plan, people aren't being stoned to death, tortured or raped. They just can't give aid and comfort and teaching of jihad, and their quality of living - and their life span - will be much improved.

26 The only problem with nukes is the fallout and radiation. Whatever happened to those neutron bombs that just kill everything organic but leave everything else intact? That's what we need to use. Then we can still have their oil, but not have to put up with their bullshit. But we should at least give fair warning...here it is, come have one last look. By the way, no more practicing the religion of pieces. All the mosques will be razed, surrender you copy of Islamic book of death and destruction. Or, stay here and get vaporized. I think that's fair enough.

27 Degenerate libs still think this is a police matter. Wait for us to get hit, then react by "arresting" those who committed the "crime" This Downing Street idiot is a putz. Tin Foil hat for you my loonie moonbat friend. Thank God for George W. Bush and his giant Balls.

28 Actually if it took out San Francisco, New York or Boston maybe we should exercise restraint.

29 NUKE THE KABBA!

30 hmmmm, it may be time for "Nuke Mecca" bumper stickers!

31 CREDO AND TANCREDO The links below are from the website of a physicist. Be forewarned that physicists possess a greater ego and arrogance than attorneys, doctors and televangelists but usually without the distinctive hairstyles. Also, learn to live with contradiction. This physicist reports many interesting ideas on a plethora of subjects but I do not agree with all of his positions especially his link to what I consider to be a misguided Arab/pAlestinian publication. But that's one link of many on his seven year old site. He also thinks that religion prevents people from independent thought and makes them mindless robots while the cooperative civilized aspects touted by religious people actually occur naturally without the religion which often takes credit for them. I agree with that but I make huge distinctions between different religious groups/masses. I live with contradiction. If you can't live with contradiction you'll end up with your legs crossed while another person, who can't live with contradiction, kills you. It's happening everyday, most recently and prominently in London, UK. Actually it's not most recently. Constant Iraq attacks and the relentless violence happening to the Indigenous Israelis who are getting squeezed by this bizarre roadmap and non-existant truce. Isn't it enough to be railroaded as an immigrant minority all over the world? It was a Arab majority that forced them to leave the land, an intolerant Arab majority. Why are bloggers reporting about an American making a aggressive statement on radio while Israelis, an indigenous population for thousands of years, are being exhiled from their own homes and land!?! The already "mainstream" blogs are ignoring the disengagement as if it isn't happening right now today. While mainstream media (mSM) is singing it's swan song bloggers are mimicking the grand tradition of crying wolf (isn't he cute, looks just like his father). It's the practiced tradition of misdirection, bending, turning reality. WOW! Who else does that constantly after every murderous assault? Since the controvesial remark focused on Mecca which is in Saudi Arabia I'll remind everyone that Arabia has been owned, run by, cashed in and/or dominated by the Saud family for 250 years. 250 years and thousands of family members. The Bin Laden construction company rebuilt Mecca amongst many other projects in Saudi Arabia. This made the Bin Ladens the second wealthiest family in the 250 year old kingdom/regime. Osama Bin Laden is a Saudi with about fifty siblings. Yeah, no kidding, Sheik condoms are only sold in the West. He reportedly was raised with his father's beliefs. Now crunch some numbers! Just like his father + Saudi made Billionaire = He's a pacifist with no ties to the Saudi power structure! DING! We have a Winner! Somewhere on the site below is a remark that states: By destroying Mecca you remove a physical object which supports the fraud on which the religion sustains itself. Remember the author, like myself, sees flaws in religion. Removing the symbols effects the belief. NOT THAT Tancredo said that! He apparently said if we're watching TV reports of Iraqis getting killed and maimed, Beslan children getting killed and maimed, Israelis getting killed and maimed, Londoners getting killed and maimed, Thais getting beheaded, Spanish getting killed and maimed AND suddenly here in the US we get attacked "again" then we should turn off the TV and think about destroying someplace of importance to the enemy. http://ebtx.com/wtc/wtc5.htm "The behavior of Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries indicates that they fundamentally approve of bin Laden type terrorist activities. They say that they decry the attacks yet ... " http://ebtx.com/wtc/incommon.htm "Well, there is something which differentiates Muslims in America from other American citizens. It is this. Their first loyalty is to their religion ... then ... to the United States. I don't mean loyalty to the dirt or the government but rather to the much deeper extent of philosophical principle ... that is ... they have no loyalty to our most cherished "Western" traditions which are, primarily, freedom of thought and expression ... freedoms antithetical to Islam. " http://ebtx.com/oats/wtc.htm "I suggest, upon confirmation that the act of war was indeed perpetrated by bin Laden, that the holy cities of Mecca and Medina be destroyed by "Biblical fire", aka: nuke 'em. I believe this will hit them where it hurts most. Some of the hardliners will get really nasty but it will take the wind out of those younger sails. After all ... How can Allah be all powerful and at the same time get nuked out of existence?" http://ebtx.com/wtc/truislam.htm http://ebtx.com/wtctoc.htm

32 Mr. K, If we are just going to waste them, I suggest, (and Saddam had it right), biological and chemical. The are a whole lot cheaper then nukes, and a fairly good job, and cleanup a lot easier. Or better yet, just fly round the clock B52 strikes. Who needs precision when we are killing Arabs, (men, women and children,) whole sell.

33 Butch - we probably need a nuke on the big black rock. that will pollute the site for 10,000 years at least...puts the kibosh on any rebuilding effort.

34 or perhaps they will just believe it is prophecy come to pass, and cause a lot more trouble, take this section about prediction of the end times: At the end of time, Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn, who will come from Abyssinia (al-Habash), will destroy the Ka'bah in order to steal its treasure and Kiswah (cloth covering). The Ka'bah is the ancient building which was built by Abraham, and whose foundations were laid by Adam. As Tafsir (interpretation) of the Ayah "Until the Gog and Magog (people) are let through (their barrier)'" (al-Anbiya 21:96), it was reported from Ka'b al-Ahbar that Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn will first emerge at the time of Jesus, son of Mary. Allah will send Jesus at the head of a vanguard of between seven and eight hundred. While they are marching towards Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn, Allah will send a breeze from the direction of Yemen, which will take the soul of every believer. Only the worst of people will be left, and they will begin to copulate like animals. Ka'b said: "At that time, the Hour will be close at hand." They'll probably think it's time to put all unbelievers heads on a pike, and destroy Israel.

35 Improbulus needs a tactical nuke suppository.

36 I say cut foreign aid to all Middle Eastern countries that refuse to aid us in the War on Terror, harbor terrorists or refuse to let their people choose their own destinies. Let their people starve, let civil wars erupt & maybe they will realize that there is more than 1 religion, 1 set of beliefs, etc. Meanwhile, with coalition aid, Iraq will continue to progress towards a representative based government, which will lead to greater freedom & economic prosperity for all that choose to participate. The rest of the Middle East will see the wealth, security & strength that freedom generates & will demand the same or will simply move to Iraq. I know that that would never happen & that the same people who feel compelled to blow themselves up would simply move terrorist operations to eliminate such prosperity (kind of like what is going on in Iraq right now). But I think that this approach – though seemingly naïve – coupled w/ harsh military reaction to any terrorist attack is probably the best approach.

37 Downing Street Moron: You are a liar. A traitor and a piece of shit. You see I have never advocated nuking anyone. This makes you a liar. I do not hate the Arabs. I have never said so. Again, that makes you a liar. I do hate the muslim religion that always brings death, torture and destruction where ever it goes. I would far rather have Arabs for neighbors than a purple lipped porch monkey like you. They are higher on the evolutionary scale. At least they are not traitors to their countries. You are. Nothing but a foul mouthed monkey who should be caged in a zoo. What other use could you possibly be. So shut them flapping lips, have a seat on de porch and wait for de govment check. Low life animal.

38 So you guys want to nuke all the Muslim holy sites. Does that include the sites in Jerusalem? Why or why not? If you think it would be a good idea to nuke Jerusalem, let me suggest you need to re-think your basic assumptions. Actually, you need to think through them a first time, and then re-think them as necessary. If you think it would not be a good idea to nuke Jerusalem, why is that? Is it a moral issue, based on the understanding that you would kill and injure a lot of people who have very little, if anything, to do with anything we're trying to stop by our retaliatory nuking campaign? Is it a practical issue, based on the understanding that, without respect to the moral considerations, nuking Jerusalem would more than likely set us back from our goal of stopping the jihadists? Either way, the same considerations apply to any other city. We're not at war with either Israel or Saudi Arabia. We're not even at war with Islam. Even if we were, there are some very weighty practical considerations that may weigh against bombing Mecca or Jerusalem.

39 Klanooster, you are a non-nuclear genocidalist thug with no morals, no decency and no belief in Jesus. You are a sick, sick man who needs help. You wouldn't last one minute in my neighborhood!

40 No, don't nuke Jerusalem, just demo Al-Aqsa mosque. It's only redeeming quality is that it looks like a giant golden tit.

41 Rooster, your head is a microwave oven stuffed with foiled potatoes squirming with maggots. Only you can stop your madness.

42 Tactical nuke enema... mmmmm naughty. Think about sticking things up guys' butts much, greg?

43 Downing Street Moron: Who in the hell would want to go to your neighborhood? Maybe dope addicts or cops looking for dope peddlers. You should try my neighborhood. The boys on the river would have lots of fun with you and it would only cost a rope. Gators get hungry too. Wouldn't last in your neighbor. I already send one like you to hell and one like you to Angola. And quite bring up Jesus. People who use language like you do are not Christans. Just copying your betters. Boy.

44 Many seem to continue bringing up if we do this or that it will only serve to piss the muslims off more. Perhaps that is exactly what we (the civilized west) should do. Piss them off and get it over with. It's going to happen sooner or later anyway. Why leave the problem for our grand children. The sooner we take care of business the better.
