A modest proposal.

Following a discussion about terrorism last night with a friend, we came to a few conclusions.

1) The "War On Terror" makes no sense. As pointed out in this article, that makes as much sense as saying we were fighting the blitzkrieg in WW II.

2)What we are really fighting, is Islam. I think it's fair to say this. Islam has shown itself to be what religions, at their core, really are: violent, dangerous, and serve to control men. How can a "religion of peace" start issuing fatwas, burning flags, threatening people over a cartoon. A cartoon, by the way, which pointed out the very fact that this is what would happen if someone made cartoons about Mohammed. We are only so lucky that Christianity is so liberalized these days that we only really have one religion to deal with.

3) Since we have accepted the fact that we are at war with Islam, we all need to be soldiers. So, The Accuser proposes a subversive plan: bring it down from the inside. The only way to sway public Muslim opinion, is to show how our way of life is superior to theirs. SO.....Start sending over beer, pornography, movies, books, magazines, music, food, candy bars, cowboy hats.... Anything you think represents the best of western culture. Pick a name out of the Tehran phonebook. Just start deluging them with our wonderful excess. If you lived a life of asceticism, denial and fear of stoning for looking at a woman's calf, I think the latest issue of Hustler would be a powerful incentive to revolt.

More to come on our new John Frum Movement...
