You really seem to have an affinity for tight-fisted police
states.
Is
that part of being a conservative?
When the alternative is genocide and never ending war, you bet

ass.
Tito was a prick but the people who rose up after the Soviets
left
were worse. Is the Ayatollah better than the Shah? (for anyone
but the
most radical muslim fundamentalists).
---------------------------
Some people are very critical of US installed or supported
"puppet"
leaders like the Shah, but there has been a long history of
interest
in attempting to control the growth and influence of religiously
motivated Islamic Fundamentalists. It worked for many years but
we
are losing that fight and ability. The Shah may have been
corrupt but
he was predictable and had some semblance of control. The
world is
certainly not safer when religious zealots take over, especially
those
who are fundamentalists in the Islam teachings and beliefs.
Remember, Harry is of the opinion that the religious zealots
causing problems in the world are
Christians.
Yeah, while hundreds of Christian churches are being burned, 100,000
displaced in Egypt... South America, etc.. The Muslim religion of
hate
and intolerance is pushing this issue....
So is the Christian religion of hate and intolerance.
-----------------------------
When was the last time a Christian beheaded someone simply because the
victim was not Christian?
When was the last time a Christian blew himself up in a crowded
marketplace, taking a few dozen non-Christians with him?
When was the last time a Christian flew airliners into buildings,
killing thousands of innocent people?
When was the last time a group of Christians declared death to all
non-Christians unless they converted?
What I said was "so is the Christian religion of hate and intolerance. I
made know mention of specifics such as beheadings.
Well, what are your Christian examples of hate and intolerance that compare to the Muslim examples
provided by Luddite?
Psssst, moron!! I said that before Luddite's post so it has nothing in
common. But, if you must ask.

Greg, et al, are correct....you don't read what you post as your 'proof'.
From your cite:

listed. Among the attacks with major loss of life a
Continuing intermittently to the present time: Rockets indiscriminately launched against civilian
