Fox News Journalists Released

Fox News journalists Steve Centanni and Olaf Wiig have been released by the terrorist group Holy Jihad Brigades after being held hostage for almost two weeks. This release came shortly after a video was released by the terrorist group showing Centanni and Wiig reading a statement of conversion to Islam.

It was later revealed by Centanni that this statement was done at gunpoint.

"We were forced to convert to Islam at gunpoint," Centanni told FOX News. "Don't get me wrong here. I have the highest respect for Islam, and I learned a lot of good things about it, but it was something we felt we had to do because they had the guns, and we didn't know what the hell was going on." - FoxNews.com Article

Whatever your views of Islam and whether or not it is a religion of peace are irrelavant. The fact is this is what these terrorist groups want. To convert the entire world to Islam by any means necessary. It is a convert or die policy. Convert to the ideals of the Taliban. Live the life of pre-2001 Afgahnistan, or die. This is what we are up against folks.

During the Cold War there were two comflicting viewpoints in America as to how to deal with the Communist Union. One side said "better Red than Dead". The other said "better Dead than Red". Now we face a new set of conflicting views. "Better Taliban than Dead" or "better Dead than Taliban".
