Terror! Is there anything more frightening?
Ed Driscoll of Pajamas Media spent all afternoon in hysterics over a whole bunch of nothing involving some Muslims on an airplane, when you'd think he'd be better employed hunting down whoever the bastard was who stole his chin.
Amid the general asininity, two points are salient, by which I mean, remarkably dumb. First:
And if this run was popular before, it’s certainly becoming the go-to flight, to test the limits of airlines security.
Which is a very stupid thing to say. Driscoll had just noted, OMINOUSLY, that this incident occurred on the same Amsterdam-Detroit route the undiebomber failed to assplode. Why Al Qaeda would be perpetrating "terrorist dry runs" on this particular flight, of all possible flights, is rather mysterious. You'd think they would not need further recon. Also, this incident had, in fact as opposed to fond imagination, nothing to do with "testing the limits of airlines security." Though I suppose this may be merely another example of the sublime perfidy of the Musselman, innocence being the supreme evidence of guilt, and whatnot.
Second:
As Mark Steyn wrote shortly after Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab’s underwear failed to detonate:
Islam is bilingualism on steroids. When the community reaches the size it’s now at in Yorkshire or Malmo or Rotterdam, it has the ability to self-segregate and you wind up on the road to “two solitudes,” parallel societies. (That partially explains the second- and third-generation disassimilation Derb references.) For example, we think of Amsterdam-to-Detroit as a flight between two Western cities. But if you’re Muslim it’s a flight between two outlying provinces of the dar al Islam — the fast Islamifying Amsterdam and Dearborn, Mich.
And, for obvious reasons, the Islamists want to blow up airplanes full of Islamists going back and forth between their own "provinces." For. Obvious. Reasons. Reasons that cannot be shared because of reasons of Notional Security reasons. This is reasonable.
Anyway it really is very remarkable how many successful Dry Terrorist Runs the Islamicists have managed to pull off, once you look into it. They are everywhere! Clearly we need to exterminate all the brutes, including that Scottish guy in the arm sling. He's the ringleader, or "Imam," and would very likely have whiskey on his Koran as he tries to weasel out of a check.
