Some Sunday Reading

Found this meticulously sourced column by Ben Johnson at FrontPageMag, which makes for an excellent Sunday read. Johnson makes a lengthy argument that arrives at five conclusions regarding the war on terror.

Fact #1: The war on Iraq is not a distraction from the War on Terror; it is the War on Terror – and al-Qaeda will stop at nothing to end it.

Fact #2: Appeasing terrorists cannot buy peace.

Fact #3: The enemy isn’t just “Bin Laden.”

Fact #4: Unbridled immigration and tolerance of radical Islam is hazardous.

Fact #5: The modern Left has become so consumed with hatred of the West that it embraces its would-be destroyers.

If these seem like common sense, you have an excellent grasp on reality. If this does not seem like common sense, read the entire column.
