England Swings Like a Pendulum Do---Or is it a Noose?

The New York Times takes a welcome break from its own campaign against American soldiers serving overseas to question whether Muslim clerics in England should be prosecuted under English laws for advocating killing US and UK soldiers in Iraq.

One would think that some elementary instinct for self-preservation would kick in, but evidently the laws of God and Nature don't apply in many parts of Europe, whose slow collective suicide by under-reproduction is being accelerated by failure to exercise self-defense of borders or of internal public security.

One would also think that "citizens" or "subjects" of a country who call for the murder of their fellow citizens, contrary to the law of the land, would be arrested for inflammatory language.

Instead, in England ministers huddle with Muslim "leaders" and emerge about Muslim public holidays to assuage the bloodlust Islamists have for non-Muslims whom they regard as mortal enemies.

Yeah, holidays, that's the ticket.

You just have to wonder how bad things must be in England if even the cringing limp-wristed New York Times reports on Blair's failure to enforce the laws of the land.

The Daily Mail has more on a "firebrand" preaching inflammatory hatred that would get him sent to prison for life stateside, like his namesake Ali Tamimi in Virginia.

Makes you wonder what happened to the country that stood up to Hitler.
