Somebody Give Cindy The Hook

Now the "grieving mother of a soldier son" is verging on endorsing a resumption of the Holocaust - or at least auditioning for a reporter job at al-Jazeera:

The media's favorite Gold Star mother is blasting Israel along with the U.S. for being the primary cause of worldwide terrorism.

"You get America out of Iraq and Israel out of Palestine and you'll stop the terrorism," Sheehan declared Saturday, in quotes picked up by the Drudge Report.

Israel, of course, is not "in" Palestine unless you adapt the Islamist position that Israel is "Palestine," in which case Mrs. Sheehan is calling for the destruction of the Jewish state, the massacre of a substantial portion of its population, and a fresh Diaspora.

But then, by the same token, every concession offered up to the Islamist enemy is just greeted by fresh demands. There is, in fact, not the slightest shred of historical evidence that any American and/or Israeli retreat short of complete and unconditional surrender to the global caliphate would "stop terrorism." And that would be to submit to terrorist rule, and the liberations of Afghanistan and Iraq were stark illustrations of what that outcome would be like.

Women like Cindy Sheehan would be the most severely impacted from the Islamic subjugation of American society, as well, doubtless, as the most astonished to discover, to their bewildered chagrin, that George Bush wasn't the villain of this war after all. Or, in other words, the President whose impeachment she is demanding is in fact saving her from the consequences of her own malevolent idiocy.

In the meantime, she's become the new "It" girl of the Democrat Party:

In a conference call organized by Joe Trippi and Bob Fertik, Sheehan blasted the U.S. government, saying that without the Internet, "we would already be a fascist state," according to National Review Online.

Trippi managed Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean's presidential campaign in 2004. Fertik is co-founder of Democrats.com.

Sheehan has also attracted the support of the radical left-wing Democratic group MoveOn.org.

And Bush-bashing conspiracy filmmaker Michael Moore is featuring extensive coverage of her protest on his Web site.

She has not, however, been willing to speak to any individual or group, much less mainstream media outlet (blogosphere, talk radio, etc.) that might actually challenge her despicable seditions.

So, since "Mohammed," as it were, wasn't willing to go to the "mountain," the "mountain" is coming to "Mohammed":

Demonstrators backing President Bush's war on terrorism traveled to Crawford, Texas, on Friday and Saturday - as the media continued to focus on Gold Star mother Cindy Sheehan's anti-war protest outside Bush's ranch.

Led by syndicated radio host and NewsMax contributor Mike Gallagher, more than 100 pro-Bush demonstrators arrived on Friday, as part of what Gallagher called a "pro-America bus trip."...

On Saturday, reinforcements arrived in the form of "The Heart of Texas" Chapter of FreeRepublic.com, which staged a support-the-troops rally that drew 250 people, according to WCBS Newsradio 880.

Rally organizer Kristinn Taylor also stressed that the protest was not an attack on Sheehan.

"It's about supporting the troops, the President and the war on terrorists," he told NewsMax.

I can understand Ms. Taylor not wanting to contribute to Sheehan's ill-gotten celebrity with that demurral. And it's true that they weren't there to throw her Bushophobic crap back in her yapping face per se. But by the same token, would any of the Freepers and other Bush backers been deployed to Crawford if not for CS and her BS? Surely the former is a clear, unequivocal reaction to the latter.

And that's certainly nothing to be ashamed of; indeed, it's not only worthy of patriotic pride, but can itself be seen as a skirmish in the GWOT - a microcosmic interlude of the forces of light and right squashing the forces of darkness and "insurgency."

One Islamo-symp goes to the President's ranch to piss in his face, and the end result is hundreds of Bush supporters holding a rally in support of everything she so bitterly and obnoxiously opposes. An excellent example of how God uses even His foes to accomplish righteous ends.

And how the Democrat Party just cannot get out of its own way.

UPDATE 8/15: Here is one Iraqi's response to the Bolshevik Bimbo:

But today I was looking at your picture and I saw in your eyes a persistence, a great pain and a torturing question; why?

I know how you feel Cindy, I lived among the same pains for 35 years but worse than that was the fear from losing our loved ones at any moment. Even while I'm writing these words to you there are feelings of fear, stress, and sadness that interrupt our lives all the time but in spite of all that I'm sticking hard to hope which if I didn't have I would have died years ago.

Ma'am, we asked for your nation's help and we asked you to stand with us in our war and your nation's act was (and still is) an act of ultimate courage and unmatched sense of humanity. Our request is justified, death was our daily bread and a million Iraqi mothers were expecting death to knock on their doors at any second to claim someone from their families. Your face doesn't look strange to me at all; I see it everyday on endless numbers of Iraqi women who were struck by losses like yours.

Our fellow country men and women were buried alive, cut to pieces and thrown in acid pools and some were fed to the wild dogs while those who were lucky enough ran away to live like strangers and the Iraqi mother was left to grieve one son buried in an unfound grave and another one living far away who she might not get to see again.

We did nothing to deserve all that suffering, well except for a dream we had; a dream of living like normal people do.

We cried out of joy the day your son and his comrades freed us from the hands of the devil and we went to the streets not believing that the nightmare is over. We practiced our freedom first by kicking and burning the statues and portraits of the hateful idol who stole 35 years from the life of a nation. For the first time air smelled that beautiful, that was the smell of freedom.

The mothers went to break the bars of cells looking for the ones they lost 5, 12 or 20 years ago and other women went to dig the land with their bare hand searching for a few bones they can hold in their arms after they couldn't hold them when they belonged to a living person.

I recall seeing a woman on TV two years ago, she was digging through the dirt with her hands. There was no definite grave in there as the whole place was one large grave but she seemed willing to dig the whole place looking for her two brothers who disappeared from earth 24 years ago when they were dragged from their colleges to a chamber of hell.

Her tears mixed with the dirt of the grave and there were journalists asking her about what her brothers did wrong and she was screaming "I don't know, I don't know. They were only college students. They didn't murder anyone, they didn't steal, and they didn't hurt anyone in their lives. All I want to know is the place of their grave".

Why was this woman chosen to lose her dear ones? Why you? Why did a million women have to go through the same pain?

We did not choose war for the sake of war itself and we didn't sacrifice a million lives for fun! We could've accepted our jailor and kept living in our chains for the rest of our lives but it's freedom ma'am. Freedom is not an American thing and it's not an Iraqi thing, it's what unites us as human beings. We refuse all kinds of restrictions and that's why we fought and still fighting everyday in spite of the swords in the hands of the cavemen who want us dead or slaves for their evil masters.

You are free to go and leave us alone but what am I going to tell your million sisters in Iraq? Should I ask them to leave Iraq too? Should I leave too? And what about the eight millions who walked through bombs to practice their freedom and vote? Should they leave this land too?Is it a cursed land that no one should live in? Why is it that we were chosen to live in all this pain, why me, why my people, why you?

But I am not leaving this land because the bad guys are not going to leave us or you to live in peace. They are the same ones who flew the planes to kill your people in New York.I ask you in the name of God or whatever you believe in; do not waste your son's blood. We here have decided to avenge humanity, you and all the women who lost their loved ones. Take a look at our enemy Cindy, look closely at the hooded man holding the sword and if you think he's right then I will back off and support your call.

Shame can be a powerful weapon. Not in a direct sense, since hatemongers like Cindy Sheehan are as bereft of conscious as they are of scruple, but in contrasting their irrational, immoral opposition with the reality of what it is they are opposing, and thus rendering them pariahs.

There are other weapons than the sword, the AK-47, the RPG and the IED. Mohammed wields moral suasion like Worf does a bat'leth.
