More Terrorism in Egypt: Have You Joined the Anti-Jihad Yet?

Egypt_bombings_42406 "Three explosions rocked the Sinai resort city of Dahab on Monday night leaving at least 100 dead and wounded, according to the doctor who runs Egypt's rescue squad in the peninsula," reports Haaretz.com

According to the report, one blast hit a hotel, a second a restaurant and the third explosion rocked the resort town's market area.

Injured_42406 "There were body parts and debris in the street ... There are ambulances and cars taking people to hospital," said another resident who also did not want to be named.

Another good day's work for the terrorists, eh?

But forget about them.  What about you?  Have you joined the jihad?

How many completely innocent men, women and children have you deliberately targeted and killed today?

More_injured_42406 Oh -- you're against terrorism, you say?

Then what have you done to fight it?

Don't tell me it's not your problem.  The cancer of terrorism is rapidly on its way to every country on earth.  Is that O.K. with you?

If you wait until terrorism clearly is your personal problem, it will be too late.

I know, I know.  You have other responsibilities.  We all do.

Man_runs_past_pool_of_blood_dhahb_42406 But have you at least spoken out against terrorism today?  Or this week?  Or have you lent your implicit support by saying nothing?  Worse yet, have you spent your precious time making excuses for terrorists?

Perhaps you are serving in the armed forces of a country that is fighting terrorism?  If so, THANK YOU.  Or is a member of your family serving?  THANK YOU. 

Are you doing anything to support the front line troops in the war on terror, and their leaders?  A care package perhaps, or at least a kind word now and then? 

Shock_after_blasts_42406 How about the leaders of the war on terror?  Are you supporting the leaders of any country that is currently taking the battle to the terrorists?  If not, why not? 

Which leaders the world today are fighting the war on terror the way you believe it should be fought?  Are you supporting them?  How?   (P.S. - If no country on earth is fighting terrorism the way you think terrorism should be fought, perhaps your ideals are unrealistic.  Pick the country that comes the closest and support them.)

Are you telling the story of the war on terror in a way that actually helps the good guys?   Are you helping to spread goodwill for those who are fighting terrorism?

There are probably a million ways to help in the war on terror.  Pick one.

Join the anti-jihad.

Before it's too late.

If we lose this one, we lose it all.
