We haven’t had a
9/11 since 9/11, so everything’s okay and we can let our guard down,
right? WRONG! At this writing, two bombs secreted in
trash cans exploded at the finish of the Boston Marathon, an unexploded bomb
was found in another trash can, and a fourth went off at the John F. Kennedy
library. Nothing definite yet on who did
it, but I’ll take a wild guess and say it was the stinking Arabs. Home grown kooks and anarchists have it in
for the government; they blow up federal buildings in Oklahoma City and the
like. Why would an anarchist target an
event like the Boston Marathon? It also
seems that the second bomb went off a minute or so after the first, to kill or
injure rescue workers arriving at the scene.
This is a known Arab terrorist modus operandi. This attack illustrates what we all know or
should know – what should be in the back of all of our heads and in the front
of the heads of those responsible for this nation’s security. We have to get it right every time; the
bad guys only have to get lucky once. And sometimes bad guys just get lucky.
Where do we go from
there? My readers already know that I
don’t put much stock in winning wars by playing defense or making nice to the
enemy. Attack, attack, attack. The hell with Pakistani sovereignty, or that
of any country that gives safe haven to Islamic terrorists. If so much as a cap gun goes off from a
building in enemy territory, level the building. If the enemy doesn’t want
their schools and mosques blown up and their children killed, they should keep
their military assets the hell away from
schools, mosques and kids. The hell with
Geneva Conventions (they were meant to apply to uniformed soldiers of national
armies). Enough with free countries
having to fight by the Queensberry Rules while enemies of freedom gouge and
bite. Do whatever it takes to WIN.
