The spectral Chertoff
The same old tired line from the same old tired Chertoff, even as he eases out the door. Consider: while Muslim and non-Muslim spokesmen have spilled oceans of ink since 9/11 asserting that Islam condemns “terrorism” and the killing of “innocents,” without defining what is meant by either term, no one has ever produced any examples of authoritative and orthodox Islamic religious scholars rejecting, on Islamic grounds, jihad violence against non-Muslims; rejecting the idea that Sharia law should be instituted in the Muslim and non-Muslim world; and teaching the idea that non-Muslims and Muslims should live together indefinitely as equals.
Got any such examples? Send them to me at director@jihadwatch.org. But I have asked many times before. This moderate, peaceful, pluralistic Islam is the great unicorn, the Santa Claus of public policy, that everyone believes in but no one has ever actually seen.
“‘As one threat fades, another may come in,'” from USA Today, December 18:
Q: Who is the war on terrorism against? Is it al-Qaeda? Is it the tactic, which seems impossible to eradicate? Or is it Islamic radicalism?
A: What we’re confronting is an ideological conflict with an extremist world view that I don’t think is an accurate representative of Islam, but uses the language or hijacks Islam for an extremist agenda. It’s an ideology that’s reflected in al-Qaeda, and it’s reflected in Lashkar-e-Taiba, which everybody now knows because of (the Mumbai attacks). That is the struggle, and unlike the Cold War victory, I don’t think there’s going to be a wall that comes down. It will be a process of using hard power to strike back at the leaders and using soft power to change the breeding ground where people try to recruit.

There is no currently Netflix server in Poland and the company has given no indication that they may ever release one.
Movies that you pick are barely a click away- literally and figuratively.
TV, as an example, is different so much inside the last couple of years, that the
industry is on par with it, with a few set top boxes becoming
obsolete after just a few months, with newer features being
added – including HD, safe-keeping for recorded programs, and in many cases gaming facilities.

There are sorts of benefits to watching movies online instead of
going to the cinema or extra cash that you haven’t got on the local blockbuster store.
It’s roughly exactly like what you’d spend to rent five movies from Blockbuster, yet you can easily go through ten
or maybe more movies per month with Netflix if you watch them when they come in.
Do spend some time to look for the ones that will not set you back anything when you decide to watch The Last
Song online free.
