Five Years Later

There’s a nice debate on Front Page. I like everything Andy McCarthy has to say. And this quote from Jed Babbin:

We can’t defeat radical Islam without saying — long, hard and continuously — that Western society is superior to radical Islam, and telling that to all we can reach on radio, the internet and otherwise. We offer peace, prosperity and human rights. They offer war, death, poverty and slavery. Until we break the hold radical Islam has on the countries it controls, this war will not be won. Which means that we need to be taking the initiative against Iran, Syria and the rest without regard to how well or how poorly Iraq’s nascent democracy is doing.
