You who deal in death and destruction;
You who murder in your god’s name;
Women, children, it doesn't matter to you
Who you slaughter, torture and maim.
Well, I’ve got a message for you from America,
Something you’re probably too deluded to know.
Afghanistan and Iraq are just the beginning.
We’ll hunt you all down wherever you go.
You say you have a gripe with our government.
You don’t like who we’re friends with or why.
But trying to intimidate us with violence
Just guarantees that you’re all gonna die.
I mean, what the hell were you thinking?
Did you think Americans would back down?
Did you think we'd live in fear of you?
You ridiculous, pathetic, fanatical clowns.
We’ll find you in every rathole you hide in.
We’ll fight you scumbags any time, any place.
And the last sight you’ll ever see in this world
Will be a U.S. soldier kicking you in the face.
What is it like to spend years in a cave?
You know, it’s all pretty funny in a way –
Trying to pretend you’re fierce warriors
While you're hiding and running away.
You must really be living the good life
With no toilets or showers in that hole.
At least now you match, inside and out -
Your body stinks as much as your soul.
It's strange, I thought we'd hear more from you
After your cowardly sucker punches back in 2001.
What have you been doing since way back then?
It must be hard to light a fuse while you run.
Your pathetic little threats don’t impress us.
America’s wiped out your kind of evil before.
It’s dirty work but hey, someone’s gotta do it.
You’re nothing special. You’re just one more.
And don’t be encouraged by those few, sad Americans
Who look for excuses for the things you have done;
Who think you’re just poor, misunderstood romantics
Who had no choice left but to pick up a gun.
The American people are very compassionate
And some may have supported your cause before.
But now the only thing we have learned from you
Is the difference between terrorism and war.
Yes, I know that you don’t make that distinction.
To raving lunatics like you, terror’s only a word.
But we've killed many tyrants and you'll die, too
When again, civilized people thin out the herd.
There's moral violence that makes this world better.
It’s the exact opposite of what you terrorists do
And the only reason peace never lasts very long
Is that it's always disrupted by psycho's like you.
You say America’s policies in the Middle East
Have filled you with outrage and despair
And that you can see no other alternative
To improving the situation over there.
We shouldn't even have to bring freedom to you -
Believe me, there are better things we could do
But your corrupt religious and political leaders
For centuries, have done nothing but lie to you.
Why do you think they only allow one source of news
And then proceed to control everything it puts out?
And like sheep, you gobble up everything you're fed.
It's wise, not anti-Muslim, to question and doubt.
Here's something I'd like you to try to explain -
Only one of forty-seven Muslim countries is free.
Seven are among the world's ten most inhumane!
But we're "The Great Satan"? Sorry, I must disagree.
And even if all your accusations were true
And you’re the victim that you claim to be,
How do you think indiscriminate bloodshed
Will help to set you and your people free?
You see, there have been better people than you
Who changed the world without killing a thing.
Their names were Jesus, Buddha, Gandhi,
Teresa, Kennedy, Malcolm, and King.
And as much as I love the idea of pacifism,
You maniacs leave us no choice but to fight
If we don't fight and, God forbid, you prevail,
The world will be trapped in one eternal night.
I’ve been witness to your version of justice -
Children beheaded on their way to school
And women jumping from burning buildings
Because of acts by madmen led by a fool.
I've witnessed your version of freedom, too,
Where people are silenced and music is banned;
Where women can't feel the sun on their faces
And all must bow down to your tyrannical hand.
You accuse the west of engaging in a holy war
Then kill babies while screaming, “Allah is good!”
And decapitating any non-Muslim you capture
While hiding your cowardly face under a hood.
Do you think you have the corner on outrage?
Do you know why I'm really writing this poem?
It's for the people in the airplanes and towers,
And the children who just wanted to go home.
There are some who will call me intolerant
Or say that I’m thinking in simplistic terms
Well, I say when you want to grow a garden,
You've got to kill all of the slugs and worms.
Like most Americans, I can be very sympathetic.
I would have taken your side if you were right.
But terrorism immediately overrides other evils.
You've left us no choice but to stand and fight.
Someday in a brighter future, I'll visit your country
And with true Muslims, sit down and break bread,
When the land is free and the people are happy
Because all of you miserable bastards are dead.
So have a good time for your days are numbered.
And remember, it was you who declared zero hour.
You've been begging for war. Well, now you’ve got it.
I hope you enjoy this lesson in the use of true power.
Author notes
I don't like terrorists very much. lol Please don't start an argument with me about Bush and America being worst terrorists than the Islamo-fascists because you won't be pleased with the results. I've been down that road many times before. You won't tell me anything I haven't heard.
And In case anyone wonders why I support the war on terror, consider this article describing just one of the over 5000 Islamic terror attacks since 9/11, this time against Christian children innocently walking to school.
THREE SCHOOLGIRLS BEHEADED IN INDONESIA
(They must be so proud, eh? See www.MichaelSavage.com for more information. In our liberal media, this is the only site willing to publish the photographs. God forbid we should see the true face of our enemy. Warning: Not for the squeamish. And don't watch the videos if you just had lunch. In fact, don't watch them at all if you can't take graphic images. The sights will never leave your mind.)

JAKARTA, Indonesia — Unidentified assailants attacked a group of schoolgirls on Saturday in Indonesia's tense province of Central Sulawesi, beheading three and seriously wounding a fourth, police said.
The students from a private Christian high school were ambushed while walking through a cocoa plantation in Poso Kota subdistrict on their way to class, police Maj. Riky Naldo said. The rural area is close to the provincial capital of Poso, about 1,000 miles northeast of the Indonesian capital Jakarta.
He said the heads of the three dead girls were found several miles from their bodies.
Indonesia is the world's most populous Muslim nation. But Central Sulawesi has a roughly equal number of Muslims and Christians. The province on Sulawesi island was the scene of a bloody sectarian war in 2001-2002 that killed around 1,000 people from both communities.
At the time, beheadings, burnings and other atrocities were common.
A government-mediated truce ended the conflict in early 2002 but since then, there have been a series of bomb attacks and assassinations targeting Christians. A market attack in the predominantly Christian town of Poso killed 22 people in May.

"FIVE QUESTIONS NON-MUSLIMS WOULD LIKE ANSWERED"
By Dennis Prager
(Dennis Prager's nationally syndicated radio show is heard daily in Los Angeles on KRLA-AM (870). He may be contacted through his website: www.dennisprager.com)
"The rioting in France by primarily Muslim youths and the hotel bombings in Jordan are the latest events to prompt sincere questions that law-abiding Muslims need to answer for Islam's sake, as well as for the sake of worried non-Muslims.
Here are five of them:
(1) Why are you so quiet?
Since the first Israelis were targeted for death by Muslim terrorists blowing themselves up in the name of your religion and Palestinian nationalism, I have been praying to see Muslim demonstrations against these atrocities. Last week's protests in Jordan against the bombings, while welcome, were a rarity. What I have seen more often is mainstream Muslim spokesmen implicitly defending this terror on the grounds that Israel occupies Palestinian lands. We see torture and murder in the name of Allah, but we see no anti-torture and anti-murder demonstrations in the name of Allah.
There are a billion Muslims in the world. How is it possible that essentially none have demonstrated against evils perpetrated by Muslims in the name of Islam? This is true even of the millions of Muslims living in free Western societies. What are non-Muslims of goodwill supposed to conclude? When the Israeli government did not stop a Lebanese massacre of Palestinians in the Sabra and Chatilla refugee camps in Lebanon in 1982, great crowds of Israeli Jews gathered to protest their country's moral failing. Why has there been no comparable public demonstration by Palestinians or other Muslims to morally condemn Palestinian or other Muslim-committed terror?
(2) Why are none of the Palestinian terrorists Christian?
If Israeli occupation is the reason for Muslim terror in Israel, why do no Christian Palestinians engage in terror? They are just as nationalistic and just as occupied as Muslim Palestinians.
(3) Why is only one of the 47 Muslim-majority countries a free country?
According to Freedom House, a Washington-based group that promotes democracy, of the world's 47 Muslim countries, only Mali is free. Sixty percent are not free, and 38 are partly free. Muslim-majority states account for a majority of the world's "not free" states. And of the 10 "worst of the worst," seven are Islamic states. Why is this?
(4) Why are so many atrocities committed and threatened by Muslims in the name of Islam?
Young girls in Indonesia were recently beheaded by Muslim murderers. Last year, Muslims — in the name of Islam — murdered hundreds of schoolchildren in Russia. While reciting Muslim prayers, Islamic terrorists take foreigners working to make Iraq free and slaughter them. Muslim daughters are murdered by their own families in the thousands in "honor killings." And the Muslim government in Iran has publicly called for the extermination of Israel.
(5) Why do countries governed by religious Muslims persecute other religions?
No church or synagogue is allowed in Saudi Arabia. The Taliban destroyed some of the greatest sculptures of the ancient world because they were Buddhist. Sudan's Islamic regime has murdered great numbers of Christians.
Instead of confronting these problems, too many of you deny them. Muslims call my radio show to tell me that even speaking of Muslim or Islamic terrorists is wrong. After all, they argue, Timothy McVeigh is never labeled a "Christian terrorist." As if McVeigh committed his terror as a churchgoing Christian and in the name of Christ, and as if there were Christian-based terror groups around the world.
As a member of the media for nearly 25 years, I have a long record of reaching out to Muslims. Muslim leaders have invited me to speak at major mosques. In addition, I have studied Arabic and Islam, have visited most Arab and many other Muslim countries and conducted interfaith dialogues with Muslims in the United Arab Emirates as well as in the U.S. Politically, I have supported creation of a Palestinian state and supported (mistakenly, I now believe) the Oslo accords.
Hundreds of millions of non-Muslims want honest answers to these questions, even if the only answer you offer is, "Yes, we have real problems in Islam." Such an acknowledgment is infinitely better — for you and for the world — than dismissing us as anti-Muslim.
We await your response."

"Experts Say US Complacent on Nuclear Terror Threat "
By David Morgan
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Four years after the Sept. 11 attacks, the Bush administration and the U.S. Congress are showing signs of complacency about the threat of a terrorist nuclear attack that could cripple a major city and shatter the economy, nuclear security experts said on Monday.
At a public forum sponsored by the former Sept. 11 commission, the experts said the government must do more to secure bomb-making materials worldwide, prevent proliferation, and promote international cooperation on security.
"We said on the 9/11 commission that there needed to be maximum effort and a sense of urgency. The sense of urgency is more a mood of complacency today," said former commissioner Timothy Roemer, a former Democratic congressman from Indiana.
"Rather than a brisk pace of activity, we are more seeing a business-as-usual approach," he said.
Panel members including former Sen. Sam Nunn, a Democrat who once chaired the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee, worried about the pace of efforts to secure nuclear stockpiles that are often poorly guarded in 40 countries, including former Soviet states.
"From my perspective, the terrorists are racing and we are somewhere between a walk and a crawl," said Nunn, who now leads a nonproliferation group called the Nuclear Threat Initiative.
He called on President Bush and Russian President
Vladimir Putin to accelerate U.S.-assisted nuclear security efforts in Russia and to overcome bureaucratic entanglements that have retarded progress in the effort.
Security has been upgraded for only about 26 percent of an estimated 600 tons (tonnes) of weapons-useable nuclear material in Russia that exists outside nuclear weapons.
'DISASTER' WARNING
CIA Director Porter Goss told the Senate in February that enough nuclear material to build a weapon is missing from Russian storage sites.
"Unless we greatly elevate our effort and the speed of our response, we could face disaster," Nunn added.
Monday's forum was sponsored by the 9/11 Public Discussion Project, a nonprofit group founded by the bipartisan commission that investigated the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on Washington and New York.
Many of the commission's recommendations for reforming U.S. intelligence have been embraced by the Bush administration or were formulated into law last year by Congress.
Former commissioners are holding a series of forums this summer to look at how the administration and Congress have implemented those recommendations. They intend to issue a "report card" around the anniversary of the attacks.
Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network and allied militant groups hope to buy or steal nuclear material for a weapon that could be used in an attack that would dwarf Sept. 11, intelligence officials have said.
"A terrorist nuclear attack on one of our cities could kill hundreds of thousands of people. It could shatter our economy, erode our civil liberties, give blackmail power to the terrorist group that carried out the attack," Nunn said.
Former Energy Department official Leonard Spector said the United States was likely to see an attack with a so-called dirty bomb that could spew radioactive material across an entire city neighborhood.
The nuclear security experts criticized the Bush administration for moving slowly to establish a new intelligence center on weapons proliferation. They said Congress has also withheld funds to secure highly enriched uranium, which can be used to build nuclear weapons.*
