To Be or Not to Be

Lisa Fabrizio argues in favor of the Moussaoui verdict at TAS this morning.

In many ways I agree with her, and the thought of this guy being buried alive to die in ignominity as opposed to martyrdom is appealing. These Jihadists all want their 72 virgins and a mule, and by denying them their coveted spot on the Islamic all-star team, we may discourage others. Also, from a purely Christian standpoint, perhaps this jackass will, with a long contemplation of eternity and the loss of his sexual paradise, find true repentence and thus save his soul. Maybe. At any rate, there is something to be said about this approach.

The problem is, we can`t lock up every two-bit Jihadist in an underground bunker, and the ACLU will undoubtedly fight tooth-and-nail to protect the rights of those who would deny ALL rights to Americans. The problem is, much like the argument against repatriating illegal aliens, one of logistics; we can`t build enough secure prisons, and can`t manage those prisons properly, to effectively deal with this problem. We certainly don`t want to let these guys continue to harm us from the inside, and Islam has been very successful at recruiting criminals in the penal system, so we cannot rely on ``honor among thieves`` to deal with the problem.

I`m afraid that we have to execute these guys-publicly. After all, the Jihadists have been executing OUR people on camera, and these are often innocent people who have done nothing to deserve such a fate. This becomes a matter of will; what we perceive as intelligent justice, the enemy perceives as weakness. They are encouraged because America has, once again, shown herself weak-a paper tiger. We don`t have the will to fight, as they see it, and our ``mercy`` is a symbol of our lack of will.

But what to do about that whole 72 virgins and a mule business? Too many young Moslem men gladly kill innocent people in return for the joys of the flesh to follow. These executions must 1.prove the futility of action against us and 2.offer no hope for personal profit either in this life or the next. We need to study Islamic law to find a way to scare these stupid young punks away from suicide bombing and the like. If they are to sleep, they perchance should unsettled dream.

I have heard that many Moslems believe that a dead body wrapped in pigskin will prevent the former owner (of the body, not the pigskin) from attaining paradise. Perhaps we should bury a guy like Moussaoui in a porcine jacket? This would show our committment, and make the enemy realize that they have a great deal more than their lives to lose.

Of course, the ACLU and the rest of the Hate America First crowd would blow a headgasket-not to mention the cries of indignation from PETA for using real pigs! Maybe the Jihadists are right, after all, and we lack the will to fight the kind of war the enemy has forced upon us?

Furthermore, America has slipped back into the peaceful slumber of the `90`s, with few realizing the gravity of what we are engaged in. Sentencing Moussaoui (and others of his ilk) like a common criminal makes the whole matter appear to be just another matter for law enforcement. America watches with jaded interest, yawns, and falls back asleep, while the enemy continues their campaign of extermination against us. The death penalty is the final act, the most serious act a State can take. If we start executing Jihadist monsters, perhaps America will take notice. SOMETHING needs to wake this nation!

We are fighting one of the most ruthless bands of thugs ever to walk the Earth, and we continue to pretend we are engaged in some kind of war game. This is deadly serious; it`s about time we realized that!

I would humbly suggest this as a means of excecution, and attack for our troops abroad.

When the jury took so ridiculously long to return its verdict I suspected that they would be voting for the life sentence or try some to end in some form of no-decision such as a hung jury, (which I am not sure is applicable in this case.) Moussaoui as retarded as he is manipulated our system to the best of his ability to gain his martyrdom, mule, and 72 virgins so hopelessly ugly that they must be covered from head to toe, and was denied. I suppose we could pat ourselves on the back and say that our system “is fair” and “does work” but the real thorny question to be answered is, why was he even allowed to participate in our system?

We have a mechanism for dealing with people such as Moussaoui “enemy infiltrators” in times like these “War” that was fully vetted and legally approved by the Supreme Court some sixty years ago. It is insulting that this trial regardless of its resolution has taken five years to worm its way through our courts to conclude in such an emotionally unsatisfying fashion. The time for Military tribunals is at hand they would deal far more rapidly with issues that our civil courts are ill equipped to handle. They are simply better suited for this work as they would not allow the show trial aspects of a case like this we have all been treated to for the past few months. Everyone involved the prosecution, the defense, the media, would be tightly controlled and subject to a code of conduct under the UCMJ and silliness would be curtailed with military efficiency.

This case has been botched from the moment they took this doofus into custody, I don’t know why the verdict should have been any more sensible. Perhaps we would have been better off to prosecute him for his immigration violations, oh yeah we don’t do that right either, never mind ...
