Our Nation's Biggest Problem

DHAKA (Reuters) - Three simultaneous bomb blasts rocked separate railway terminals in Bangladesh on Tuesday, with militant slogans claiming to be from al Qaeda found at two of the sites.

Thin metal sheets scribbled with slogans were found at the bomb sites in Dhaka's Kamalapur and Sylhet terminals. The third blast was in the railway terminal of the southeastern city of Chittagong.
"... If Hazrat (Prophet) Mohammad is not declared the superman of the world by May 10, all non-governmental organisations will be blown up," the slogans on the metal sheets read in the Bengali language. They were signed "the al Qaeda network" in English.


In April The Peter Heck Show interviewed 5 of the mayoral candidates for Kokomo and asked each many questions including, "What is the biggest problem facing this country today."

Not a single one said Radical Islam.

This biggest problem facing this country today... Is that our leaders don't recognize the biggest problem facing this country.

Well said Chris.

Most of our leaders are in a September 10, 2001 mindset. They're blinded by political correctness, multiculturalism and a "can't we all just get along" attitude. Believing America is the cause of terrorism in the world.

I'm sorry to say it, but, we need to be hit again for them to wake up and take this seriously.

I forgot to add their inability to recognize evil and admit it's presence in the world.

Does anyone else smell something fishy in this story? Like maybe an idiot wrote the letter?

MAYOR. THEY WERE RUNNING FOR MAYOR.

That's like dragging the abortion debate into mayoral politics. Mayors don't have a whole lot they can do about either problem.

Next you will tell me they aren't tough on North Korea and it nuclear problem.
