Do you want to get really, really mad? Read this.

Only technical defects prevented two suitcase bombs placed in two commuter trains in the German cities of Dortmund and Koblenz from exploding on the afternoon of July 31, setting off a fireball in the trains that would have killed scores of people. Two men from “southern countries” are being sought. Germany debates increased surveillance cameras in train stations. The thought of sending the Musulmans back to Dar al Islam is not even a gleam in anyone’s eye.

Speaking of security measures in transportation facilities, get your Digitalis out, as Bob Grant used to say, before you read this. In fact, this is so shocking and disturbing I don’t even know if I want to post it. Ok, I feel sick, but here goes. WorldNetDaily reports that “On June 21, a senior DHS official from Washington personally guided Muslim officials from the Council on American-Islamic Relations on a behind-the-scenes tour of Customs screening operations at O’Hare International Airport,” in order to demonstrate to CAIR that the security methods were not unfairly targeting Muslims.

In a meeting, Brian Humphrey, Customs and Border Patrol’s executive director of field operations, assured CAIR officials that agents do not single out Muslim passengers for special screening and that they must undergo a mandatory course in Muslim sensitivity training. The course teaches agents that Muslims believe jihad is an “internal struggle against sin” and not holy warfare.

Customs agents involved in the CAIR tour at O’Hare tell WorldNetDaily they were outraged that headquarters would reveal sensitive counterterrorism procedures to an organization that has seen several of its own officials convicted of terror-related charges since 9-11.

We are eagerly assuring the jihad-supporting, terror-supporting CAIR that our agents are taught that jihad is only spiritual! We are unctuously assuring the predator that we inculcate in our own people the belief that he is not a predator!

In all of natural and human history, has such a sick and debased thing ever happened?

This is beyond sick, beyond depraved. I want to get my hands on Michael Chertoff and wring his scrawny neck.

And the administration and their journalist apologists have the nerve, the chutzpah, the hubris to tell us that we are in a GREAT STRUGGLE AGAINST “ISLAMIC FASCISTS,” even as, like a dog demonstrating its submissiveness to a stronger dog, that same administration lies down on its back and exposes its belly to those same Islamic fascists?

This will not stand. We will never, never, never accept an America in which such things are done by our government.
