London's Metro paper's headline declared today: "Executed Because She Cared." The story was that of the death of aid worker Margaret Hanson in Iraq. What follows is a blistering rebuff of the whole mindset of Europe so brace yourselves.
What is wrong with you people? Margaret was not executed...she was murdered!!!! Say it: murdered! Butchered might also be a good word. Slaughtered works well. She was not executed. That implies a civilized nation with procedure, grievances and a legal way of doing things. This does not fit Iraqi terrorists. What is the matter with Europe? Why has a formerly great nation fallen into this habit? Why is that Great Britain is now full of women who mourn the dead with no men to avenge them? In times gone past, people would have trembled to commit the outrages the terrorists commit on a regular basis. But no more! Every crime increases the wringing of hands, not the seizure of arms. If all the West were western Europe, the West would be no more. Enough weeping and gnashing of teeth. The wretches who did this awful thing are within your grasp. The US military and your Black Watch are ready and able and willing to do the job and do it right. For pity's sake, let them do it and stand behind them! These are not people, they are subhuman savages who must be exterminated, not placated.
