Boldly Clueless Terrorists

Today we have more proof that the terrorists are clueless but boldly clueless. Militants have kidnapped an Egyptian diplomat as he was leaving a mosque. So not only are they now abducting arabs - sure to alienate those who have opposed the U.S. up till now. Not only are they abducting Muslims now - the people who might be likely to support the terrorists for religious reasons. But they are abducting them right out of the doorways of their own holy places.



If there are any Iraqi Militants reading this page (hey, you never know) let me give you a few reminders:

1. Egypt was one of the strongest allies you could have had in the Muslim world.
   
   
2. Egypt has an army, and is not afraid to use it.
   
   
3. If the Egyptian army comes into Iraq to rescue their diplomat, it is likely they won't leave.
   
   
4. Egypt is the best example of how Iraq might become a secular democracy.

In other words, this may have been the best thing militants could do for the U.S. effort.
