Yeah...Britain's PC worship of *diversity* has got them in deep. I think it was Levin who said that they would be the 'canary in the cold mine', re Islamist using Free Nation mechanisms...to undermine/destroy Freedom. Kinda brings another Ideological group to mind!

But if they use the mechanisms of democracy to take over the U.K. at the ballot box, they'll have the entire British military at their dispoasl, in which case the can pursue their geopolitical ambitions in a "respectable" manner, using fighter jets, cruise missles and nuclear submarines, instead of suicide bombers. Wouldn't it be an improvement if the Islamists gave up terrorism and guerilla tactics in favor of conventional war?

You show flashes of sheer analytical brilliance, on occasion, TF. I think you might just be toying with us lightweights.

Seriously though, Morsi won the vote over in Egypt, based on lies. Obama too. But like I've long realized...it all comes down to who/what First Principles that the Military serves. I heard some guy say that there are 21 MILLION seasoned/hardened/skilled Vets out there now. It'll be whatever leader wins them over, who ends up running the show. And most certainly not illegals or the single women who think that the 'social conservatives are ruining the Republican party'.
