Terrorist capture hotel in Mali; over 100 hostages.

Gee, I wonder what kind of terrorists they are: “Gunmen who are said to be holding more than 100 hostages in a siege on a Mali hotel Friday reportedly are forcing their captives to recite verses from the Koran or face death.” Of course, said terrorists’ habit of shouting “Allahu akbar!” as they attack something is usually diagnostic. It’s also an indication that the Left’s weird habit of not being able to say ‘radical Islam’ – no, really:

…anyway: the Democrats’ strategy is, in fact, failing, not to mention patronizing and parochial.  Because the people seizing hotels and murdering people in the name of radical Islam certainly consider themselves at war with us. We should all take that more seriously than the Democrats do.
