Why We're Fighting
We stand for -
rock 'n' roll
drinking beer
flying kites
gay discos
pretty girls
bar mitzvahs
fast cars
short skirts
soul power
- everything Bin Laden hates!
Come with us! Our guitars kill Al Qaeda
‘I would say that if containment worked for Communism it will probably work to contain radical Islam. The West's cultural weapons of mass destruction - rock music, videos, blue jeans, iPods, internet including pornography, etc.- are quite enough to bring down military jihad Islam over time. So is the picture of Western decadent luxury. Contain them so they cannot expand; defend the borders; and allow the market place to work on the rest. If they choose to keep out Western influences they will end up like Burma and North Korea; if they don't, the Cultural Weapons of Mass Destruction and the promise of earthly delights will have their way on their youth. In either event we give them far less to shoot at.
It's much easier to persuade someone to attack troops on your soil than to get them to travel a long way to blow themselves up in order to vent rage on the Internet or a rock band. If the West can't manage to win in the war of ideas: if we can't put on a better show, and demonstrate that here and now you can live in a world of rock stars, wristwatches, jewelry, pretty girls, careers for girls, pretty clothes for girls, freedom for women to drive cars and go shopping, education for everyone, birth control -- well you get the idea -- if we can't make our real world more attractive than a place where you get 71 unconsulted virgins for blowing yourself up, then we're really in bad shape. Radical Islam and the culture death shouldn't be more attractive to young people than what we can offer.’
