Scores dead, hundreds wounded. Probably just some jihadis upset over Kyoto stalemates and subprime lending.
Or Maybe Bhutto was caught reading “My Pet Goat” while the Towers fell.
So difficult to tell sometimes what sets these folks off.
****
Michelle Malkin has more.
Jihadis were so much easier to read when all they wanted to do was kill them a few Jews.
Well, she is pretty uppity for a female…. so clearly a few bomb blasts are in order
RoP.
Not.
Also it’s Thursday.
Bless the poor victims, and God help Pakistan.
Someone forgot to tell the bombers that if women ran nations, there wouldn’t be violence.
Mostly electronic detonators.
“Well, she is pretty uppity for a female…. so clearly a few bomb blasts are in order”
Oh, that is way too funny. While you guys are picking apart the lefty brain with your nutcrackers and shrimp forks, real people get blown up just trying to get a government. Where the hell is Condopoleezza Rice? Why not take that ill-advised ride with Bhutto? Too busy at the Famous Footwear blowout?
No, all you got are halfassed asides. The terrorists are on cruise control. You lit this fuse; all you can do is contain the explosion.
Drunk again, Cynn?
Yes, WE “lit the fuse.” Those planes loaded with civilians flown into our buildings loaded with civilians? But a fleshwound.
But you’re right. Condoleeza Rice should not buy shoes. Ever.
FOR THE CHILDREN!
Grow up. Or drink some coffee. Before you wind up face down on the sidewalk like an unfamous version of an unfamous Randi Rhodes.
Condoleeza was in Israel at the time, trying to make everybody there like each other more better. Then she went to London. I think she looked good, and didn’t look like she was at all particular about her shoes.
I haven’t had anything to drink I swears.
Do you care to address any of my points / questions? Sure, I’m so drunk I’m miraculously in a gutter with wi/fi access.
How ’bout those Pakis?
I guess you missed the points addressed:
We didn’t light the fuse. That’s a direct counter to your bald assertion, so your turn. Perhaps some support for your position?
Secretary Rice was in Israel, presumably doing something mroe like work than a shopping junket, so again, ball in your court.
And aside from those two crustacean sized tidbits, you said nothing else resembling substance, so perhaps you’d like to try again?
By “lit the fuse” I am referring to the bungled adventure in Iraq, which left us exposed on numerous fronts.
Terrorists love that shit, because it’s all about, well, exposure.
There’s no one reading this that missed your meaning Cynn. Now perhaps you’d like to support your still bald, however well understood, assertion
where does Kashmir fit into this?
I don’t think the men and women fighting in Iraq consider it “an adventure” — nor do I think the President or Congress, the majority of whose members initially supported the operation, think of it as some sort of glorified game of paintball.
As to the bungling…well, we’ve been through this, haven’t we. Seems that al Qaeda in Iraq is having problems, and that much of its worldwide presence is drying up.
No telling how many potential terrorists and jihadists have been killed, but I venture to say it’s a whole bunch. Is that a bungle?
Or am I missing all the attacks on the US homeland? You seem to have swallowed the propaganda about the terrorists being hydraheaded super warriors. Turns out when they die, no new heads grow — and in fact, some heads decide to go back home and drink some sweet tea.
Hell, even terrorist attacks in Israel seem to have dropped way off.
Incidentally, seen that commercial where the Brit finds the internet in the middle of a swamp?
Because I still go with your being drunk.
“You lit this fuse;’
Sorry cynn, but this is why you are not taken too seriously. Honest to God. “You lit this fuze”?
“Do you care to address any of my points / questions” You had a point? Ok, if you say so.
“By “lit the fuse†I am referring to the bungled adventure in Iraq, which left us exposed on numerous fronts”
Yes, because these jihadist assholes never blew anyone up prior to the Iraq war. Is that root cause, too? Brilliant.
Kashmir was a cool Led Zeppelin song. Is that relevant to the fact that upward of 100 people just died in Pakistan, a place where we might have some small influene?
Or is the War on Terror such an industrial force that nothing attracts its attention.
That’s pretty straightforward, but..
So it’s a clear choice between Bhutto’s vision of democracy and Richard Haass’s dream of a Pakistan under “total control.” Which one do you think the terrorists will draw more inspiration from?
OK, I got it. You are so focused on discrediting me that you all offer nothing at all about this nasty and possibly foreboding attack on an aspirational democracy. You have nothing relevant to say about the enormous (and a bit dangerous) sacrifice Bhutto has made.
Too bad I’m not a child, or this would be de rigeur.
sorry – here is the link
Cynn, do you have the faintest idea what Kashimir is? In real life, I mean?
Or what relevance it has to Islamic terror groups?
Because what I see is someone totally ignorant of anything worth knowing about Pakistan, except that there’s this cool chick named Bhutto who almost got killed, and wow, doesn’t that just suck for the Chimpler!!!11!!lol
Mastiff: I’ll admit my ignorance, and learn. So I take it you approve of the terrorist attack today?
What’s not a “force” is the depth of your historical perspective. Maggie brought up the province of Kashmir, which is the real estate that Pakistan and India have been squabbling over since 1947. That considerably predates the GWOT and even the establishment of Israel (and represents yet another prime example of a botched UN job).

Another 18 months would elapse before the invasion of Iraq. So I await your detailed explanation how all of this violence directed at the US is the result of the invasion that so significantly postdates them all.
RTO — I applaud your encyclopedic knowledge of whatever it is you guys are peddling as the litany of outrages. I don’t dispute it. My god, it is tiring, and almost hypnotic. I merely wanted to point out the singular lack of outrage over a country in which religiuos violence might be countered, over a country where such violence is the currency.
If you weren’t a child, you wouldn’t be acting like one.
But here, let us assuage your emotions: we’re against terrorist attacks like today’s. But most of us don’t think it the result of some “adventure” dreamed up by a pretender to the throne trying to avenge daddy and score some war booty for his Halliburton buddies.
See RTO? All those deaths? Just you “peddling” a “litany of outrages.”
Hell, they aren’t even SHARED outrages, given that it’s just “you guys” who are “peddling” them. To cynn, the barely rate anything other than a perfunctory acknowledgment as dry hypnotic data.
No use crying over spilled Americans. Where is your outrage over the attacks on Bhutto? A BROWN WOMAN OF COLOR! (Not that you don’t feel outraged, mind; just, well — cynn wants to see some emoting!).
Gah.
Sickens me.
It’s all about Cynn’s approved and selected outrage. The fact that she *thinks* she knows what’s at the base of her chosen attack-to-be-cared-about-more-than-you-do is just the unperceived (by her) irony.
I doubt that Cynn, who seems to be best representative of those people who regularly respond to the surveys on the historical and geographic knowledge of the average American, even knows who Benazir Bhutto is, why she’s special, and why, in several ways, she’s really not.
So you are all in the same boat as Bhutto — personally. I understand the incidents RTO was outlining, sorry if I seemed flippant. But the larger issue is get off your lazy complacent butts and agitate for those who actually have a chance of making a difference.
Jeff likes to disparage me, and if it makes him feel all Teutonic, let ‘er rip, I say.
cynn- I am unsure what your 8:50 means.
Here is the encyclopedia Britannica’s entry on Bhutto.
Her father, a former leader of Pakistan, was executed. She spent time under house arrest. Her two brothers died young under suspicious circumstances, and if you google around you will see she is suspected in the death of one of them. She was run out of Pakistan due to corruption that had led to a coup.
We didn’t light this fire anymore than we lit the fire that made the Sikhs kill Indira Ghandi.
Are you concerned that people aren’t outraged that she almost died? Of course I’m saddened. I was more frightened when there were attempts on Musharraf’life. Outrage, however, has long been exhausted.
But the larger issue is get off your lazy complacent butts and agitate for those who actually have a chance of making a difference.
Who? Musharraf? Imran Khan?
Any emoting would be far in excess of what one could reasonably expect from the average Pakistani, who is brown and indifferent to hopes of democracy cause democracy is indifferent to brown people I think is the logic. CNN International explains more better than I can:
CNN is for sure against taking that ill-advised ride with Bhutto cause democracy is teh silly.
Teh anonymous brown people have spoken and I can’t argue but I still think that democracy would have been cool but oh well I guess.
Again, here’s my freely proffered ignoramity: I only know Bhutto left the country under accusation of miscondict, was absolved; absolution under question.
If Tom Delay came marching down my street, promising to end my suffering, on some days I might fall in behind him.
Not to mention that “Paki” is generally considered an offensive term.
Cynn, the ideology that includes, “Let’s only do what seems easy” is repugnant. It’s the heart of true decadence.
The only really worthwhile stuff to fight for is the stuff that just might be impossible. As a member of the Army, I’d be offended to be asked to try less.
And while we’re approaching something substantive, for a change, even if it is just you dancing to avoid your original statements, and given your, as yet untapped, expertise on the India-Pakistan conflict, why don’t you lay out for us the easy road for peace in the region that former PM Bhutto will magically conjure up for us all?
Maybe answer the grand question as to why she didn’t do this when she was the PM?
And just maybe the biggest outrage in this evnet is not the attempt itself, but that in the attempt to take out just one person, the terrorists who you’be cheerleading for if the target were different, they casually snuffed over 125 bystanders. Go look into the list I posted earlier and see how many more than just the US deaths I tabulated there were, how many of them were “just bystanders.” Your outrage ignores them, doesn’t it? But that’s okay because you care more than I do.
You call it Imperialism. I call it defending the bystanders.
The whole conversation’s just rich comming form someone who regularly defends these tactics and now uses crocodile tears to justify leaving the innocent to their fates.
BTW; No one has to disparage a caricature.
Well said, RTO, well said indeed.
The Teutonic Jew pounces upon
the phlegmatic Anglo-Saxon;
this last one, the pseudo-Teuton,
falls into the freezing waters of the Thames,
famous for the nymphs
that of yore sang on its banks.*
“Well, she is pretty uppity for a female…. so clearly a few bomb blasts are in orderâ€Â
Cynn, honey, this is what’s known as extra-dry, arid, sere, dark, phantasmagoric, understated, British-esque, whistling-past-the-graveyard humor. By its faux-flipness, it conveys exactly the opposite in meaning and intensity.
Oh, that is way too funny…. all you got are half-assed asides… get off your lazy complacent butts and agitate for those who actually have a chance of making a difference.
And here’s the difference between the Left and the Right, cynn. We tend to respond to outrages by taking or recommending actual action, not by holding candle-light vigils or writing emo-screeds in blog comments. The only “agitation” that’s going to help Pakistan is the kind of agitation that’s being going on in Iraq and Afghanistan lo these last few years.
We either sign up or we hammer the Congress to make sure they do right by the troops, or we send care packages or defend them against slander whenever necessary.
I’m not sure what kind of response you would have found acceptable. If you want weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth, go hang over at DU or dKos.
Well I’ll just let this go, RTO. We’re speaking past each other. I happen to be familiar with most if not all of the horrific inicidents you cite, because I have relatives in the forces, and they love to remind me. Skip it, and best to you and all you care about.
The terrorists are on cruise control.
Your relatives regularly trash your arguments and you still hang out here?
Glutton.
Hey, that’s my line!
Feets, yer alright.
And you didn’t lose your cool like I did.
RTO — They don’t trash my arguments. They shun me. I never even get to ask questions. Wah.
Thank you, sir. It’s your line cynn, and not a bad one when it’s left to stand on its own.
Perhaps asking questions, rather than making pronouncements would help.
i’m guessing it’s the bunnies. I’d suggest getting bunnies, but they’re probably too possum sized, and we know what the Roxie does to possums.
Oh, come on. Cynn is nice to RTO and everything is just over? Doesn’t it bother anyone that we’ve been getting lectured all this time by someone who doesn’t even know about Kashmir?
What are you gonna do, MayBee? She doesn’t even see that the similarity in the messages she gets here and from her own family members might be a clue.
And she’s not been nice to anyone. She got her arguments trashed and withdrew over the horizon.
These are even smaller – some weird mini-bunny that this guy that lives next to this guy that a guy I know knows raises. Unbelievably anime-like cute but delicate. I got the bunnies cause there used to be three of them and the guy I know who knows the guy that lives next to the guy that raises the bunnies said he never ever wanted to hold a lifeless little mini-bunny in his hands ever ever again.
cynn
I admit I was mocking.
I think groups of people who set off car bombs and suicide vests over a woman (gasp) who may not agree with their agenda (gasp)
deserve mocking.
I could care less if they are killed… after all a suicide bomber wants to die anyway, and who says I have to let him/her fulfill their dream.
Suicide bombers don’t need understanding… they need to die quickly.
Car bombers need to die before they can kill others.
I have zero respect for idiots that conspire to blow up a bomb in a marketplace, or a cafe. For example it would be ridiculous for me to go into the sidewalk farmers market and blow the place up because I hate Bush. I should be killed before I have the chance and people like me who would do such a f***** up thing should be mocked, ridiculed, shunned and turned into the police.
Holy crap.
Who kills a couple heundred innocent people because Bhutto shows up?
I’m not a big fan of Barack Obama, but when he visited my town,I did not feel compelled to try to incinerate his motorcade and the hell with innocent bystanders…
Why did Bhutto have to say that Islam forbids the intentional killing of women who want to lead via random bomb blast? Wouldn’t that be a given?
Can I raise an eyebrow at least?
you are a saint happyfeet.
he never ever wanted to hold a lifeless little mini-bunny in his hands ever ever again.
I had a similar thing with baby guinea pigs.
definitely not a saint, but all these people on my street that keep these huge dogs in their apartments, definitely not saints either
BBC, btw, was the first I’d heard that there were kids among those killed in Pakistan. NPR didn’t mention kids.
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I can’t wait for cynn’s input on the next thread that deals with illegal immigration.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think cynn’s point is that a post shouldn’t have the words “blow” and “goat” in it.
“When the Levee Breaks” is an absolute Zeppelin jam!
…..sorry NOLA.
Cynn: “You are so focused on discrediting me that you all offer nothing at all about this nasty and possibly foreboding attack on an aspirational democracy.”
Cynn, you absolute twit…
The very reason that we are interested in this AQ attack is precisely because it is, as you point out, a “nasty and possibly foreboding attack on an aspirational democracy.”
That is also exactly the reason that we support the troops in Iraq: they are helping the millions of Iraqi voters to defend their country and their freedoms from the same a**holes who just tried to kill Bhutto.
AQ’s reason for existence is to destroy democracy everywhere.
It’s the democracy, stupid.
And Cynn,
I am agitating for those would make a difference, namely our troops. They ARE making a difference, as much as you would deny it.
“I don’t know about the rest of you, but I can’t wait for cynn’s input on the next thread that deals with illegal immigration.”
That’d be “Stairway to Heaven”
[lights Bic in the back of the Tower Theater]
We’re off the Washington, DC today, got a date with a crowd of rowdy Scots for a wedding.
The reception is at Fort Myer, which should tell you something.
Oh, and Jeff, I got a bottle of the pure: Glenmorangie Cellar 13.
Back in May of 2003 we were discussing the Bali bombings on an internet forum, and like Cynn in this thread, the progs were explaining the attacks as “blowback” for Iraq. I happened to read this news story in the Los Angeles Times (5/12/03):
Cynn:
When you make provocative statements you need to be prepared to be challenged. That’s just the way it works.
However, if you come back, here’s a little Paki history quiz for you with some background. When Bhutto’s father was prime minister he was (and is) widely acknowledged to be one of the most personally corrupt and incompetent heads of government in recorded history. He reigned over the almost complete collapse of the Paki economy and enriched himself and his family in the process. Up until now, the public debate in our media has bulls eyed Musharref as trying to protect his grip. True enough but what has been given short notice is daughter Bhutto’s historical connection with her father’s corruption. It’s a pick your poison kind of thing. The good news is that both are committed (in some manner, shape or form) to defeating radical Islamists. Her return may bolster some deep feelings about democracy in Pakistan but there are others who remember that democracy failed them and their country when her father was democratically in charge.
Now, on to the quiz portion of our little tome. During the 70’s when Bhutto was fattening his bank accounts and virtually bankrupting the country, Pakistan’s public education system collapsed nationwide. Schools closed and students had no where to go to get an education. While the system was ever so slowly being built back up what educational institution filled the role, especially for poor children and expanded geometrically to meet the need?
The answer: Saudi Funded Wahabbi Madrassas!
This was the only road to education for many poor Pakistani children, not to mention the fact that poor families could bounce a few mouths that needed feeding as the schools were live in, all expenses paid. Thus 2 whole generations have been indoctrinated into ultra conservative originalist Islam, where science and math are almost unheard of, replaced by rote memorization of the quran and fierce preaching of the abomination of apostates, Jews and Crusaders. Thus radical Islam had its growing field which is why there are so many Pakistani’s (and other Muslims from other countries, eventually) involved in jihadist activities.
Where did I get this information.? Not from a conservative think tank or even from Bernard Lewis or Robert Spencer. It’s from the book “The Age of Sacred Terror,” written by two guys from Clinton’s National Security Council.
So, before you throw around catchy, meaningless phrases like “lit the fuse” I would suggest that you log onto Amazon and order the book. Fear not, there is plenty of apologizing for Clinton and terrorism that your fragile progressive sensibilities won’t be harmed.
– I for one, am not going to pile on cynn. Its been a really really tough week for the Left (shhhhhh, don’t mention the letter). Besides, Feets is on a roll with the bunnies thing, so I’m not going to do the accursed “Shah/Cahtah” thing, and mess up all that good “providing the trigger” stuff, because like, you know, all those “Brown people NOT Anericans” that have died by the hand of the courageous freedom fighters of the Uber-righteous religion of peace were just, Allah be praised, necessary for the cause.
– Still, it would be nice if the Left at least gave a flying funk about them, but I guess you only make your bones as a good cult member by saving all your rath and outrage for the oil hungry American infidels. All those hundreds of thousand “Others” that have died for no apparent reason will just have to do without.
– Its times like this that we should all remember the strirring words of that great peacemaker, Neville Chamberlain, “Peace in our time”. After all, look how well that worked out.
A good post, BJ, but you can forget it for now. Cynn’s nursing a hangover, but I’m sure she’ll be back with more selective outrage and hand-wringing. Whatever, cynn’s alright for the most part, but I’m w/Big Bang on this one. Whenever she has one of her outrage spasms I resist the urge to pile on, knowing it will probably pass eventually.
Well, it really has nothing to do with cynn.
I just like me the piling on! It goes great with roasted brown person and a side of fricassied penguin.
– “….So this baby seal walks into a club….”
(yeh I know its old, but I think it still catches the spirit of the fake but accurate Leftward “outrage”…..)
“I just like me the piling on! It goes great with roasted brown person and a side of fricassied penguin.”
Don’t forget the al dente Penn pasta.
With a mixed salad of rainforest greens.
“…Paging Mr Regis….Mr Regis please pick up the nearest courtesy phone… Your wife has parked the van in the express elevator…………again…”
You call it Imperialism. I call it defending the bystanders.
Outstanding, RTO. I’m stealing that.
Are you sure that was cynn? It sounded exactly like semanticlown. Check the IP.
I’m starting to think “cynn” is a handle shared by a diverse group of individuals with a wide range of IQ scores.
– All lower than their ages…..
OK, Cynn, here’s my proposal:
1. Tell the Democrat Congress to get the fuck out of the way when the NSA wants to intercept their communications.
2. Encourage the use of whatever interrogation tactics are needed to convince the scum responsible to tell us who ordered this attack, and when the next one is going to happen.
3. Write a letter to the Copperheads in Congress encouraging them to advocate sending the next batch of Iranian Quds force officers back to Tehran from 20,000 feet sans parachute.
– Well RTO, it looks like you can add yet another “peaceful religious event” to the Jihadist E-ticket fun-death rides agenda. Here. (not here, back at the other here.)
Well, looky what Cynn’s SW Asia Savior has to day to Voice of America today:
So does this make her look knowing, informed and courageous? Or does it make her look callous, unfeeling and possessing poor judgment?
BB, did you know I keep a database? Yes, this one will go on the books. Thanks for the pointer.
RTO- Do you know about The Burnhams and their group?
Yes. I have not yet read her book, but it’s one on my list.
I am so defeated.
It’s a new day, cynn.
Blank slate, people! Enjoy it!
The tabula, it is raza. And so can you!
SDN: Let’s just blow the whole fucking world up. Nobody to answer to; maybe life would reconstitute itself.
“I merely wanted to point out the singular lack of outrage over a country in which religiuos violence might be countered”
I wasn’t outraged when a terrorist killed an old lady next to my house.
I wasn’t outrgaed when terrorists shot up my brother’s school.
I’m not going to get outraged about this.
It is self-evident that these terrorists are scum. I am all in favor of imprisoning or killing them. But what the heck does outrage accomplish?
And how does one “counter” religious violence in a foreign country without military force?
