Neo-Cons are not at all like the National Front, which is essentially fascist in nature. The Neo-Cons tend to be along the lines of classical liberals, which is almost, but not quite, a polar opposite of the National Front's racist philosophy. Neo-Cons oppose the Islamists for ethical and political reasons, not racial/relgious ones.

.. Ps if you ever get into a fight with our mate Abu hamza remember stay away from his right hook .sorry couldent resist that one.o yes indeed the sophisticated British humor .. Would NEVER work against me - I'm a loofer, and have been dealing with the right hooks of people ALL of my life - it's the righties that have a hard time dealing with Me, since they have no natural defenses against an attack from that side, whereas we loofers practice it all of our lives. And it's the source of our secret strength - we've SEEN the left, know its strengths and weaknesses, and therefore also know the strengths and vulnerabilities of the right like no one else can know. That's what makes us neo-conservatives - a better term might be Kennedy Democrats - since many of its members consist of fomrer Democrats, who evolved out of the former democratic party, when the party abandoned them. Socially liberal, and defense and foreign policy activists. So I would say let the abu hamzas of the world beware the neo-cons instead - we have the left hooks to end all left hooks, and they dont even know its coming to its struck. ..I think sbull has called me this to amuse his self and to make me feel uncomfortable Stop messing with my head. I will ask the mighty sbull directly .are you happy appealing to the national front mentality on the matter of Islam.... It SHOULD make you uncomfortable - you HAVE described part of the neo-con ideology in regards to radical Islam, or, more accurately, Islamo-fascism. Wherein the National Front of rightist confronts the fascism of Islam. Absolutely delicious! And a plague on both their houses. As the operators of this board has said - with much evidence to back it up - the appeal of Islamo-Fascism should burn out by the next generation. And Europe begins to look to itself and re-evaluate its immigration policies, and, more importantly, the rot that has set in to its continental psyche, resulting in an ennui and insular outlook confined within its own territories. I find it ironic that it is Europe that has become increasingly isolationalist in the affairs of the world, reacting rather than acting, and it is the United States, who has traditionally been the isolationalist in foreign affairs, has become more and more activist. A vacuum that is being filled by Europe's collective lack of will. swhitebull swhitebull -

For many European nations, it isn't lack of will but lack of strength. Remember that Russia is also a European nation and I don't think that many would doubt her ambitions on the world stage. Oh, and what do you believe the immigration policies of European nations to be and how are they different to those in America?

"are you happy appealing to the national front mentality on the matter of Islam." No one has to appeal to them. They've every right to make asses of themselves as anyone else. And as far as containing them once they cross the line, that's easy. Plenty of people have died trying to steal more concrete than they could swim with.

Assimilation as opposed to pluralism. In the 'New World' assimilate or exercise your 'right of return' (from wherever whence you came). In the 'Old World', form a ghetto (there's that word again), marginalise and discuss, plan and ultimately carry out terrorist atrocities. Read it again, do you you notice the miniscule dissimilarities?.

quote: "Remember that Russia is also a European nation and I don't think that many would doubt her ambitions on the world stage" I reckon that you'd have a hard time convincing the Russians and (their emotional/genetic) cousins, the serbs of this. They're Slavs before anything else. Most Russians/Serbs I've worked with have been absolutely dismissive of Euros. the unfortunate expression "untermesnchen" springs to mind when I remember their opinions on europeans.

Mmm, I don't want to criticise you mate but if you can find a Serb or a Russian that says he isn't European, then I'll show you an idiot.

Dojik(?)!.
