Sometimes, being an Islamic Terrorist just plain sucks...

Wonderful analysis from Strategy Page about the P.R. problems that Islamofascists are having to deal with.

Making Sure No Good Deed Goes Unpunished
Islamic radicals, and their supporters in the media, are waiting for an opportunity to avoid a PR disaster in earthquake ravaged northern Pakistan. Over three million people were made homeless by the disaster, and over 100,000 were seriously injured. Nearly 80,000 died. For Islamic radicals, the real nightmare began after the quakes, when they not only found many of their terrorist training camps wrecked, but the area was flooded with infidel (non-Moslem) relief workers. At first, the Islamic radicals tried to cajole, then threaten locals to refuse help from the infidels. But the locals were desperate, and the infidels had much more assistance available than the more acceptable (to the armed and increasingly dismayed, Islamic radicals) Islamic charities.

This is all a replay of what happened earlier in 2005, when the earthquake off Indonesia, and tidal waves generated by it, killed over 100,000 people in western Indonesia�s Aceh province. This was a place long noted for Islamic conservatism. But most of the aid that showed up was from infidels. Even the U.S. Navy soon arrived, with supplies and huge helicopters. The Islamic radicals in Aceh took a beating in the PR department. Years of painting foreign infidels as devils, gone in a few weeks.

The author goes on to talk about the differences between the two areas and how the upcoming winter can give the terrorists an edge as they can point to hardship cases and say that they are the fault of the West not moving fast enough. The good news is that they are gradually loosing traction but the bad news is that they will be around for a good while longer until we stomp out their evil. The Left and the Media (but I repeat myself) are doing nothing to help.
