Rational demands of Islamic terrorists?

I haven’t commented on the Newstalk 106 Breakfast show for some time now. That is mostly because I haven’t had a stomach to listen to that clown Richard Curran. (Bring Eamon Dunphy back!!!!) This morning I did.

Tony Blair said at the news conference that the demands of Islamic extremists are not rational and therefore cannot be heeded in a bid to save us from further carnage. Richey and his cherry picked guests on this morning show begged to differ. Of course the demands of al Qaeda are rational: ‘all they want is to get the Western troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan’. Really? But the last time I checked there were a few more issues on their agenda.

Islamic extremists want to overthrow the regimes in Egypt, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. At least that is what their principal ideologist, spiritual leader and the prime source of finances say. While this proposal probably seems reasonable at the first glance because the governments in Saudi and Egypt are run by unelected tyrants, the lefty buffoons forget that dear old Osama is not exactly a fan of democracy. He cares to replace these regimes with an Islamic state from Morocco to Indonesia based on a purist form of Islam as seen under Taliban in Afghanistan. (I am sure al-Andalus, which is almost half of Spain, is there lingering in the back of their minds. And watching The New Al-Qaeda on BBC ONE the last Monday I heard some angry Muslim men claiming Britain too.)

Even though his immediate goal is indeed to drive infidels out the Islamic states, on the long run Bin Laden wants to put in place a tyranny much more ruthless and unyielding than any other ever seen on the planet (with the possible exception of those of Kim Yong Il and Hitler). There is no doubt about it! Just check his agenda: he blames the Saudi ruling family (who run the least secular country on the planet) for not being Islamic enough!!!! It is hard to conceive any other option for those in this state who do not fit into this apocalyptic vision of purist Islam except to comply, die or become dhimmy (slaves). And what fate there is for the state of Israel in the minds of those fanatics, one can only imagine.

So, does all this appear like a rational proposal to you?

I am positive the lefty buffoons are aware of all this in the back of their minds. It is only that their self-loathing and anti-Americanism overwhelms their reasoning. Or maybe it doesn’t. Maybe they would be more than happy in a world run by the Islamic fanatics. There would be no commercials, no profit, no corporations, no gas-guzzling cars, no supermarkets, no businessmen and no need to assume personal responsibility or initiative because the state would have all the answers. Sounds like a lefty paradise to me.
