Lest We Forget

Aside from the timely reminder that Hezbollah is responsible for the murder of hundreds of Americans, this excellent article from the Seattle Times says a few more things that have needed to be said for quite some time.

Can anything positive emerge from the current carnage? Perhaps. Since Hezbollah has over the years killed hundreds of Americans (most notably the Marines in Lebanon) without ever paying a price, its destruction by Israel would constitute a major American victory; the same may be said of Hamas, whose agents of mass murder are already operating in America.

Perhaps the incessant nattering about "the occupation" will finally give way to a recognition that the real "root cause" of Middle Eastern wars is a genocidal Islamicist culture, which must be uprooted by a process roughly akin to the denazification of Germany after World War II.

It's nice to see something that makes this much sense coming out of the MSM for a change! All I would add to this is, at the risk of sounding like I'm beating a dead horse here, a few good examples of bringing the war to the enemy would likely go a long way towards this "denazification".
