Kill Arabs, bring peace?

Melanie “Jews for Genocide” Phillips recently toured Australia and savoured the dark alleys and rough streets of Melbourne, Sydney and Canberra. It must have left a strong impression because she just loved – and I mean, adored – the “leadership” of Prime Minister John Howard and his merry men. Get a load of this:

Their scorn for the current British mood of defeatism and appeasement is palpable. What, for example, does Foreign Minister Alexander Downer think about those in Britain who claim that the Iraq war has made the world a more dangerous place?

”˜Their proposition that we should let the extremists win in Iraq and that will reduce terrorism is like saying, let Hitler take France and that will secure things a bit more. Or that if only we hadn’t taken on Hitler he wouldn’t have bombed the East End. It’s a completely fatuous proposition. For the extremists, it’s fantastic that people are saying this —because the logical conclusion is to surrender’…

The Australian government understands something that many in the beleaguered administrations of both Blair and Bush (not to mention the British Tories or US Democrats) just don’t get. The Aussies grasp that the free world is under sustained attack from the same enemy on a myriad global fronts; that taking the path of appeasement on any one of these fronts is to undermine that world’s whole defence; and that it is busy undermining itself at every opportunity.

Is Phillips the only deluded soul that seems to have missed the myriad of press releases that prove the Iraq war and the “war on terror” has made the world a far more dangerous place? Obviously. For Phillips and her dwindling bandits, keeping the Arabs in line is all that matters. What a shame, therefore, that the Muslim world is increasingly not taking its orders from Washington, London or Canberra. They’re finally fighting back.
