Maybe he'll storm the mosque in those humongous boots

Kiss bass player Gene Simmons earns a special place in my heart for standing up for Western civilization in this news item. A little flavor here:

"Extremism believes that it's okay to strap bombs on to your children and send them to paradise and whatever else and to behead people"
[...]
Simmons also warned that the West was under threat, and that the Untited Nations didn’t work, adding the West must "speak softly and carry a big stick".

Of course, pointing out the shortcomings of women-oppressing, intolerant midieval tyrannies provoked howls of protest from Australian muslims (both of them, I guess). Not that they're availing themselves of the opportunity to live in the places Simmons describes.
