Ann Coulter's solution as suggested in her column of September 14, 2001 "This is war" Located at: <http://www.townhall.com/columnists/anncoulter/printac20010914.shtml>
Airports scrupulously apply the same laughably ineffective airport harassment to Suzy Chapstick as to Muslim hijackers. It is preposterous to assume every passenger is a potential crazed homicidal maniac. We know who the homicidal maniacs are. They are the ones cheering and dancing right now.
We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war.

Well, she's right on one thing -- civilians will die. This is war, and that's what happens in war. That's why, generally, we prefer to AVOID war -- unlike some people, we don't like killing civilians.[1] But we'll do it if we have to. Anyone who thinks we can get out of this without massive civilian casualties is an idiot. (No, 'turning the other cheek' is not an option. If you've once paid 'em the Danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane.) I don't agree with "Convert 'em to Christianity" bit. Let them remain Muslim. Just turn them into good capitalists locked in a trading alliance with the US, just like Germany and Japan. Global capitalism means global peace. No one wants to bomb their customers. [1]The terrorists could have crashed into their targets at night, causing massive destruction but dramatically less loss of life. They chose to cause maximum civilian death, for the purpose of causing maximum civilian death. Civilian casualties are an inevitable consequence of war -- only madmen make it the AIM of war.
Well here is another moron. From Jerry Fallwell's statements, and Pat Robertsons concurrence, I think it is pretty safe to say that we are in just as much danger from christain fundamentalist terrorists as from muslim fundamentalist terrorists. I fail to see what a conversion would accomplish. Let alone a forced conversion. Blech. Just when I'm feeling proud to be an American, watching the wonderful response of the people in New York, these scum come along and make me ashamed to be an American.

Just as the terrorists are not representative of all Middle-Easterners, so Fallwell and company are not representative of all Americans.

And yet many Americans do follow them and respect them. That is what disgusts me.

Indeed. Fallwall, Robertson et all would do well to pay a little attention to the gospel they claim to preach. As a long time "born again" I say that were "Jesus alive today" his focus would be much more along the lines of comming up with the Parable of the Firemen, his actions would be in consoleing those who Fallwell and Robertson so desperatly despise, and his anger would be directed at those pharases long on legality and short on mercy. So his word illustrates. So after these and many other public statements in the past, i say that not only do Fallwell and Robertson not speak for America, neither do they speak for Christ.
One of Bin Ladin's companions on the FBI 10 most wanted list is Eric Roudolf, the suspected Atlanta Olympics bomber. Phill
