Apologia Pro Bloga Sua or Sticking up for nasty and calling it nice

This needs to be read after reading Richard Collins's post - http://linenonthehedgerow.blogspot.com/2011/06/am-i-nasty-catholic.html and my last post -

Shadowlands has described me as "sticking up for nasty and calling it nice". I apologise to her and anyone else of good will whom I have offended. Perhaps if I explain without irony what I meant, it will be seen that offence was certainly intended, but only to the 'enemy', and that what I ironically called 'nasty' is in fact very nice indeed.

To begin with the concrete and historical, Constantine, King Alfred, St Joan of Arc, Ferdinand and Isablella, Don John of Austria, King Jan Sobieski, the poet Roy Fuller, the Polish Home Army, the killers of Heydrich were all nasty in that they killed to preserve what they saw as rightfully theirs or their fellow Catholics': their religion, native land, or civilisation.

Can it be realistically argued that the world would not be a better place if Hitler, Goebbels, and Himmler had been assassinated in 1940, or if Luther had been executed before he really got going?
Saint Thomas More was definitely not 'nice' to Luther. Of course, he was not martyred for being 'nasty', but for telling the truth about the so-called 'reformation', as he had told it earlier about Luther.

Jesus himself said thet he had come to bring "not peace but a sword". The sword, or its modern equivalent is sometimes necessary for those who have something to protect.

I proposed three enemies in my post: the first dedicated, courageous, but wrong - militant Islam. A worthy enemy with whom we have much in common, if he tried to kill me, I would be obliged to try and kill him first. Very nasty.

Secondly, the 'liberal' West , morbid from the deep tumour of the Frankfurt School. Not a worthy enemy, and to be denounced, trounced, exposed whenever possible.

Thirdly, the enemy within: those "Catholics" who deny or blur the essential teachings of the Church, leading the young into unchastity, defending the indefensible: abortion, tring to accommodate our Religion to what is socially acceptable. They should be attacked as St Thomas More attacked, vigorously, reletlessly, without mincing words or  fear of giving offence.

They are the poison in the Church.

I have nothing dire to say of Charismatics. I do not think for one minute that they are the enemy.
