Religion of Peace Strikes Again
Headline in the NY Times: In Wake of Attacks, India-Pakistan Tensions Grow.
“There is … a groundswell of popular anger here aimed at Pakistan, and the attacks have raised tensions between the two countries to a level not seen since 2001, when a suicide attack on the Indian parliament pushed them to the brink of war.”
The muslims seem determined to start World War III. Every time there’s an incident between nations, or a catastrophe as in the case of this latest attack in India, it’s the muslims. In Somalia, it’s the muslims who are pirating the shipping and threatening an already very fragile global economy.
In Somalia’s case, the only answer is to go in en masse, free the ships and wipe out most of the coastal population, since most of them are involved in piracy now. Somalia has no functioning government, no police to stop the piracy, nothing, and of course the UN doesn’t want anyone interfering in a so-called “sovereign nation”. The morass of international laws protecting this and preventing that are what has kept us and others, even the Russians, from simply launching a heavily armed invasion and cleaning out those rat nests.
However, this can’t go on, and before much longer, considering how the pirates are getting ever more brazen and attacking more and more shipping, some nation will take it unto itself to launch a full-scale attack. What this will certainly do is cause the deaths of some other nations sailors on at least one of those ships, which will then result in reprisals of some sort.
A real possibility is that the oil from one of those captured tankers could be released by the pirates, which would result in a pretty huge ecological disaster for a very large area of coastal ocean, and which in turn would cause fingers of blame to point everywhere except at the pirates, along with clamorous demands for compensation from all affected parties.
No matter how you go with this, getting rid of those muslim pirates is going to create a lot of angry people, but someone is going to have to bite the bullet and get the job done. A bunch of barefoot native muslim savages with boats and guns are making the world look weak and ineffectual. Something’s gotta give.
