Marines vs. Muslim Terrorists

I just read this post over at Dagney's Rant. It's a story that I am very familiar with. However, I realize that there are likely many people out there that are quite unfamiliar with the story about the Barbary Pirates. I'm quite sure there's no mention of these battles in government schools any more, they're too busy teaching students how to be a Muslim. Go over and read that story. It's excellent and it's very historically accurate.

3 Yeah, Jenn? I don't think anyone's going to take that bet!

Sorry about that, David, thanks for letting me know it didn't work! Should be okay now.

4 I knew the story, but I didn't know the whole story...

Very cool, and you can see the same things today.

5 Every time you let the Marines go, they win. The only time they don't is when they're hamstrung.

7 You bet, Birdwoman! But no, most people have NO clue -- especially not the background behind it.
