Apparently, when it's time to rid an area of jihadists, Ethiopia gets the job done. No hand-wringing, just action. Like we did in Afghanistan shortly after 9/11, except the Ethiopians will probably not spend time "rebuilding" the things they've destroyed...
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy... Kill hundreds of people, get killed yourself. Justice, old school.
Have you seen this joke making the email rounds?
For My Democrat Friends:
Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, our best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. We also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the of the generally accepted calendar year 2007, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere . And without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishes. By accepting these greetings you are accepting these terms. This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for herself or himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.
For My Republican Friends:
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Kinda funny. People need to get over it and grow a thicker skin- I personally like "Happy Holidays," but then the sensitive types believe even that is an attack on Christmas!
and their decision to kick the imams off the flight... I'm thinking this whole thing was staged by the Muslims to prove a point, but still the right decision by the airline.
