Alarmist Link of the Day



Click here for AmazonLittleGreenFootballs, with some choice comments from readers attached.

Yossef Bodansky told the Jerusalem Post yesterday that a massive WMD attack is 'inevitable.' (Hat tip: PDM.)

Bodansky was in Israel for the second annual Jerusalem Summit, an international gathering of conservative thinkers, the Post said.

Al-Qaida has not carried out a second major attack, Bodansky explained, because the first one sufficiently sent the message to the Islamic world that the U.S. could be penetrated, and a second attack necessarily would have to be more grandiose.

Now, however, the re-election of President Bush has set the stage for a massive attack with non-conventional weapons, Bodansky believes.

There has been a debate between bin Laden allies and some Islamic leaders over the propriety of such a large-scale attack on U.S. citizens, he told the Jerusalem paper. But, according to bin Laden’s mindset, that has been resolved by the American electorate backing Bush and thus "choosing" to be enemies of Islam.

Though some debate and doubt may linger, the planning for an attack is finished, Bodansky believes.

"They got the kosher stamp from the Islamic world to use nuclear weapons," he said.

Bin Laden’s theme has shifted since 9-11, Bodanksy said. Previously, perpetual confrontation and jihad against the U.S. was seen as the only way to protect Islam. Now, the emphasis is on punishing American society.

"Just as the West was challenging the quintessence of Islam by means of the globalization era, there was a parallel need by Islamic extremists to strike at — and hurt — the core of American society, this time with weapons of mass destruction," Bodansky said.


So, just as the West challenged barbarism, irrationality, and slavery, with freedom, education, and science; so Islam will challenge freedom, education, and science, with barbarism?

Just as the West challenged islamic oppression of women, so shall Islam challenge the free women of the west with oppression?

Just as the West challenged Islam with religious tolerance, so shall Islam challenge the west with religious persecution?


Wretchard at Belmont Club once detailed the cruel, horrific logic which would follow a nuclear strike on the US. If it looked as though there was only one weapon then there would likely be no nuclear retaliation, but instead a massive conventional one where all countries connected to Islamism would be attacked in some form and Islamist resources around the globe hammered into extinction.

If however it appeared that the enemy was able to deliver successive nuclear strikes then something like MAD would kick in. 1x10^9 people would be killed.


Perhaps the "we're sorry" idiots can wave their signs at the nuclear explosion and make it go away.


...they always have another excuse for hating us. That is why appeasement is such a stupid way to deal with these savages. If whatever condition they demand is met, they will always have another complaint and another threat. The bottom line is that they simply want to murder us. If we don't stop them, they will eventually reach their goals.


A nuclear attack on US by anyone would result:

Total global recession and starvation on a mass scale especially in 3rd world countries. US would eventually recover, large part of the world will not especially after what follows...

Nuclear strikes on Iran, N. Korea, and most of middle east would be demanded and would occur. Dont think for a minute that terror supporting nations will be able to hide behind anonymity of terrorists they will simply parish. No investigation will be needed, the US will simply lash out. I predict that such nations will immediately go through a massive pretense of investigations, arrests and disarmament anything in a rash effort to save their own bacon and appease a deranged US. The effort will prove futile and they will have only themselves to blame. Immediately following the strike US Muslims would be the first to feel the wrath of an angry populace followed by identifible liberals who wont be able to help themselves in somehow blaming us for the attack and praising the brilliance of the manuever. 9/11 anger would pale in comparison.

It will be the greatest tragedy in human history and will change everything everyone ever knew. Following the carnage the Arabs will be a small world minority with a claim to their own self-inflicted holocaust. Ironically, Arab survivors will have to rely on world sympathy to carve out a parcel of land for them to live after radiation renders much of the middleeast uninhabitable. Maybe they could be placed somewhere where all of their neighbors immediately attack them and attempt 'drive them into the sea.'
