Every night there are these commercials showing the plight of these poor starving Sudanese pleading for the Infidels to feed them. They cannot feed themselves, or educate themselves or even goven themselves.

What they can do is riot by the thousands in the streets to kill a teacher who allowed her young students to name a Teddy Bear "Mohammed." This very brave and perhaps too trusting teacher gave us a lesson beyond her classroom. The lesson is that if we think we can match the Islamofascist hatred for us with diplomacy, good words, nice talk, charitable donations and let's give peace a chance nonsense, we'd better think again. They'd execute us in a heartbeat over a stuffed animal or better yet for nothing because we are the infidel.
