One should only say good of the dead. Howard Zinn is dead. Good.

OK,Stevie baby! Tell me something substantial about he Crusades. Anything at all. Like, let me think. Hey, I know! Who won! Hmmm..? C,mon, I can wait all night. Or, how 'bout this, what was the actual motivation for the Crusades? That is, the "casus belli" ?(You may ask an adult what that means.) Either or both, Big Guy. I'm waiting.

"Sanitize" indeed! We are watching history being revised before our eyes. I guess all that stuff I learned about propaganda back in the day was true. Never thought I'd see it here though. More fool me. It's been a subject of everlasting regret for me that I didn't tape any of the news that day. If you can see your way clear, Don't( may I call you Don't?), I would much appreciate if you could provide copies of some of those tapes or point me to a source that can. Needless to say, it's not generally available. I'll never forget and feel it incumbent on me not to let others forget, either. Any help with that from anyone here is much appreciated.

Surabi, Chill Dude! It goes like this:"Old World" those places we're concerned with when discussing "Western Civilization" ,"New World" North and South America and finally the "Third World" i.e. everything else. Classes of people don't enter into it. That having been said, these threads have been ugly of late.Not this one(yet) but others. Oh well.

@ notadhimmi, Welcome indeed.I, as many here I'm sure, was once as you are now. Lurking for ages and finally choosing my nom de web so as to join the discussions.Your ideas about fliers and CDs for distribution are certainly, to my mind worth pursuing. I doubt Robert or anyone here would object to your using the material here in that fashion. Robert or Hugh, correct me if I'm wrong. For my part Jihadwatch has been most valuable as a personal education resource. Using the information gleaned hereI have become an unstoppable font of information on the subjects of islam and jihad, both contemorary and historical. It only takes one question or naive comment or lie. Then I'm off!As Lazarus says, tell a friend, correct people, argue if needed. You'll lose a few arguments at first, I did. However, as you come here more often you will learn and absorb more and more. Soon, you will be considered an expert in your circle. Then you won't have to argue, people will listen and you will begin to educate and, maybe, open a few eyes and change a few minds. I believe I have done so. Not much perhaps, but we all do our part. Once again, welcome. Read.Learn.Above all TALK. At least that. If you want to do more, great, by all means do so. You have found truth. Now go out and give it to others, or it will surely die.

I don't hate you, Fool! Nor do do I even pity you. I do find you eminently risible. You and your merry band of primitive, paranoid popinjays. I will admit your posts reveal you to be a colorful character. Almost romantic in a way.If you like purply colors, anyway. As the revered philosopher W. Wabbit would put it " What a maroon!"

"....it already is" Brilliant riposte Thor! I don't like the idea of feeding the trolls generally speaking but anytime I'm privileged to watch someone shove their bile right back down their throats.... Well, it's a beautiful thing! Well done, sir! Btw: I'm stealing your arguments for my own use, that's cool, right? :-)

That is no doubt the reason for the contemptible return of the Churchill bust. Could it be that Barry is,on some level ashamed?

At this rate we'll be calling victory the same same thing they that cannot be named call peace. i.e. SURRENDER

Ben, An excellent list, and i concur. I would add http://joshuapundit.blogspot.com to the mix. Where he gets his information I don't know but I will say that I often see things there days before it appears anywhere else.

To quote a favorite movie line"What we have here, is a failure to communicate!" The reason for this failure is the refusal of some (ahem) "commenters", on this thread and others far too numerous to mention, to acknowledge the simple fact that words mean things! Look peeps, condemnation is not even close to censorship.Neither is disapproval. My friends on the fringe, there's no need to believe me. You could look this stuff up.Try any dictionary, that's what they're for.

Unfortunately, just about Zero. The only exception I can think of is if I were to ask such question of anyone who's known me more than a few months. Then the answer ,at worst, will be " Uh... Muslims?" That's one way I know I'm having an effect. Hopefully most of us here can make the same claim.

Attractive idea. I'd watch, but the problem is, how do we get lefties to watch?one by one maybe. I've been working on my wife for TEN YEARS solid.( In the nicest way, of course ;-)!) and she's beginning to come around. I guess we all have to do what we can. At least she didn't vote for Obama, she says anyway. That's something! Btw: OT, is it possible to do italics here? Anyone?

I like this idea! Socratic dialog! Sounds much less exhausting than trying to engage them rationally. G-d knows that's a nonstarter!
