Maureen Dowd's photo may be 20 years old, but her nonsense is brand new
Some critics have said the ultimate victory for Osama and the 9/11 hijackers would be to allow a mosque to be built near ground zero.
Actually, the ultimate victory for Osama and the 9/11 hijackers is the moral timidity that would ban a mosque from that neighborhood.
No, Maureen, you’re wrong. Very wrong. Osama’s ultimate victory would be the subjugation of every Christian, every Jew, every Hindu, every non-Muslim. Falling short of that, his back-up goal would be to slice their throats.
The ultimate victory here at IHTM would be for Maureen Dowd to use a photo on her column that was taken in the last two decades.
