Ace, you simpleton. Don't you understand the nuanced media position that it's the United States' fault that archbishop was kidnapped?If not for American warmongering, the Archbishop would be happily flying his kite and swinging in his playground swing, like the little girl in "F911."

It's awful how some people just don't get it, isn't it? A terrorist is a terrorist is a terrorist.

On a similar note, I assume you are equally outraged that we allowed Mark Thatcher into the country this week without a second thought ?

Ah, this is a dog bites man kinda story. There's nothing new about Muslims persecuting Christians. That's why its going to fade away, just like the story of the family in New Jersey that got sliced up by these guys.
Oh, there'll be a splash if they find the poor bastard sans head, but nothing will come of it. Aside from Christians being purged from another Muslim country.
I wonder what 'd happen if the Chrisitians start purging back?

I'm outraged Adamant! No doubt Terry McAwful is bringing him here to engineer a coup! The bastards!

Ace, I think your "proactive Ghandi" quip is actually quite on the mark. That's how they see it - just one more "native son" doing his part to drive off the colonial regime.

The Euro's have a MASSIVE guilt complex (along with several others, I'm sure, but I'm not a psychiatrist). I think it blinds them to the realities on the ground.

Maybe this'll wake up the Vatican.

OK, fat chance, I know.

Of course the Vatican will feel particularly aggrieved considering how strongly they have spoken out against terrorism in Ireland....oh, wait. No, scrub that.

Iblis is right. This is dog bites man.

Christians are being purged throughout the Muslim word, as Jews have been. We can see the beginnings of it in Europe, which demographics will also soon make part of the Muslim world.

Nothing really happened as a result of the jihad-motivated slaughter of Theo Van Gogh. So if the Old Europeans don't object to this being done to themselves, why would they object to jihad actions being done to a brown native from one of those foreign countries they think even less of?

Old Europe is dying, Old Europe is dead. And the heart died first.

We don't have too much to sneer about. It could happen next in Sydney or New Jersey. Oh wait . . .

David Blue, get real. A majority of Dutch do object. Ever heard of Geert Wilders, member of the Dutch parliament, who was on Fox last week? Up to ten of the twelve jihad radicals connected to the Van Gogh slaughter have been arrested. The Dutch law has been changed since 9/11 to keep these freaks behind bars. Unfortunately, the suspected mastermind of this cell is still at large.

Check the news in Spain. More islam terrorist suspects are currently being captured than ETA terrorists. Check the news in Germany. They've actually ousted an imam out of the country based on his slander. Could the US do that if the imam would base himself on the right of Free Speech? I doubt it.

Bashing Europe is silly. It's the closest thing you have for an ally.

It is nothing short of miraculous that Archbishop Basile Georges Casmoussa was released. Many fully expected his head on a platter. But just as when Pope John Paul was shot by the KGB and recovered, this is a moment for joy, and to Praise God!
