Yeah.

I forget exactly when it was, maybe several months ago, but when the Libyan rebels were first starting out and still outmanned and outgunned by Khaddafi's forces, there was a wish from the rebels that George Bush were still around.

04 February 1984, U.S.S. New Jersey BB-62 looses a broadside with her 16 inch guns at targets in Beirut, Lebanon.
On that day alone the "Big J" fired 288 16 inch rounds at enemy targets ashore. This of course was when America had a real president and instead today we have Russian naval forces on station cruising those same waters.

I believe that Islam is the current greatest evil facing humanity in the 21st century.

Only when Islam as an ideology is defeated will there be actual peace. Maybe Egyptians need to suffer under 30+ years of an Islamist regime to wake up to reality.

It's titled "Women's demonstration against children slaughterer Al-Assad in Kafranbel town," a demonstration march by a group of women and children shouting (Mostly religious chanting, I recognize the Arabic for "There is no God but Allah" as a recurring part of it); they're holding up a banner (In English) that says "America, you lived 11 September once, we live it every day" meaning I suppose that they're saying Assad is killing them and their kids off at a pretty bodacious rate.
