This was posted on the Traveller Mailing List by Jeffery Schwartz under the title Apologies To Papa Heinlein:
Like barb wire ties around me
tightening and cutting all my girth
are all the stupid laws
Of the nanny state of Earth.
The arching sky is calling
Spacemen to their trade.
ALL HANDS! STAND BY! FREE FALLING!
But the call is allowed to fade
A third or more of what I made
goes to EBT and things
that insure that I'll never fly
near Saturn's rainbow rings
We're denied each spinning space mote
As they steal all that's worth:
Taken from us the homes of men
and locked us to the Earth.
No longer ride the sons of Terra,
silent the thundering jet,
a shackled race of Earthmen,
whipped dogs, once the lone wolf's get.
We rot in the molds of Vegas,
We retch at New York's tainted breath.
Foul are her urban jungles,
Crawling with unclean death
My heart breaks in longing
As I stare at the voids between
To out along the spaceways
Until what my soul hears is seen
Across the seas of darkness
looking up from Earth's blight
wishing another Star was my homeland
Praying it shine down on me tonight.
Cursed with life in prison
since the moment of my birth
Damned to ever hear the lies
of the morons that rule the Earth
I pray for just one launching
On the globe that gave us birth
to escape to the fleecy skies
And from the cold dark streets of Earth.

The Problem of Islam
Is there a solution to the problem of Islam short of a Final Solution?
The doctrine of Islam denies all of the Rights of Man including the Right of Life. Given that Muslims are required to act as the mortal enemies of Mankind there are no middle grounds under which a peace can be negotiated with any of them. In the end the practice of Islam must be removed from existence altogether.
Even if Muslims are not exterminated altogether they must be removed from rationally functioning human societies. Those who deny the Rights of Man cannot live in a rational Human Society based on those rights. Therefore Muslims have no place in a rational Human Society in and must be expelled from it.
Under no circumstances will any attempt be made to comply with any part of the Islamic code of law, including the dietary code. If for example the least expensive food available to feed the Muslims in temporary detention before deportation is pork then it will be used. If Muslims insist on complying with the false dietary laws and starve to death as a result then it’s their fault alone.
Can any of the children be saved?
Good question. Certainly those children who haven’t experienced full indoctrination to Islam could be separated and assigned to voluntary foster parents. As to other children who have been indoctrinated I have no information to come up with a sound theory of action.
