Debbie Schlussel: Would Winston Churchill Do This?

By Debbie Schlussel

Tony Blair is trying to figure out a wimpy way out of facing facts: That Islamists commit terror, and they need to be dealt with harshly. So, he's got a nice, touchy-feely idea that only liberal "outreachers" could love: an Islamic extremism conference with Islamic extremist leaders and clerics. I call this idiocy, "dialoguism"--so obsessed liberals are with the word and act of "dialogue"--no matter how odious the "dialogue" partner--you'd think it was sex.

Can you imagine Winston Churchill having a Nazism conference with members of the Nazi Party and the German-British Bund? How nice that "dialogue" would be. Thank goodness, he went to war and killed people. Otherwise, our friends the Brits--Hugh Grant, Tony Blair, and the whole lot--would be eating sauerkraut and weinerschnitzel, right now, if not being, themselves, cooked in an industrial strength Auschwitz oven.
