Terrorist Moms

Tip of the hat to Rick P. for the first terrorist pun I’ve heard yet:

Two Muslim mothers are sitting in a cafe chatting over a pint of goat’s milk. The older of the mothers pulls her bag out and starts flipping through photos and they start reminiscing.

"This is my oldest son, Mohammed. He’s 24 years old now."

"Yes, I remember him as a baby,” says the other mother, cheerfully.

"He’s a martyr now, though,” mum confides.

"Oh, so sad dear,” says the other.

"And this is my second son, Kalid. He’s 21."

"Oh, I remember him,” says the other, happily. “He had such curly hair when he was born."

"He’s a martyr, too,” says mum, quietly.

"Oh gracious me,” says the other.

"And this is my third son. My baby. My beautiful Ahmed. He’s 18,” she whispers.

"Yes,” says the friend enthusiastically, “I remember when he first started school."

"He is a martyr, also,” says mum, with tears in her eyes.

After a pause and a deep sigh, the second Muslim mother looks wistfully at the photographs and says:

"They blow up so fast, don’t they?"

Groan…

But this leads to a ponder… I’ve noted on quite a few occasions the proud comments of the parents of a jihadist 'martyr' who has blown himself up. These parents sound like an American parent whose kid made the winning run in a Little League baseball game. But their kid is dead, and in a violent and gruesome manner — killing innocent people in the process. Is there any more crystal-clear example of the differences between the culture of radical Islam and the culture of the West? Such a thing would be utterly unimaginable in our culture…

The liberals would (and do) argue that all cultures are morally equivalent; they urge us to make no judgment about other cultures based on our own mores.

To which I say “Bullshit!” I refuse to grant even the possibility of moral equivalence to a culture that celebrates the death of innocents, that takes joy in the 'martyrdom' of its children, and which believes that it is their duty and obligation to kill me and the people I love. Nope, radical Islam is a culture that is distinctly inferior and primitive by comparison with ours. And if they insist on maintaining jihad against the West, then I believe we (in the West) have no choice but to grind their sorry asses into camel feed.

And if that’s not politically correct, well then that’s just too damned bad.

    AMEN! A thousand times - AMEN!I have been thinking along the same line for years. I keep asking myself, “Doesn’t anyone in power (Congress) have even one brain cell to see that Muslims are our enemies to the death, and this is a kill or be killed proposition?"Thanks for saying it.Along similar lines, what idiots decided that profiling is a bad thing? I can see that there are a few people you couldn’t identify as dangerous, but there are also many that are so obviously not dangerous, that it is patently stupid to subject them to the lunacy of a security check. For example, stooped over, gray-haired, caucasian woman, kissing a younger woman and two small kids bye before she enters the security line. Is it really necessary to have her take her shoes off to figure out that she is not a hijacker?

    Touche' - the liberals want to talk through a solution, for which, when beliefs are deeply ingrained in “religion” is impossible.Well Said.
