Could it be to inform, to make people aware of what is happening all over the world, because nearly all of these incidents are NOT covered by the MSM? Could it be, because if people understood the frequency and magnitude of all these incidents, they would be truly alarmed and up in arms? Could it be we are intentionally being kept in the dark, because if we truly knew and understood what is happening, the self-blamers, the self-haters, the moral relativists, would have to be open to changing their minds? Could it be because there is ONE common thread, ONE common denominator in ALL the incidents, ALL over the world, in dozens and dozens of countries, and people would prefer to ignore what is happening around them? Or, prefer to ignore this common factor (HINT: it is NOT Israel, and it is NOT the US), and instead look to blame themselves, their culture, their government? Anywhere, but where the blame truly lies? Sorry, I'm not a passenger on the SS Titanic.

Who is ignoring what is happening? And, what do you suggest the United States do about all of these Muslim attacks around the world from Iraq to Indonesia?

1) we can surrender.
2) we can hunt them down and kill them.


Which do you prefer?

Judge, you and I have such a different view of the world and the U.S. role in it that I cannot even respond to that question.

This has nothing to do with my or your world view.

it's simply taking the jihadi's at their word. we either surrender or submit, or we die.

Now, based on what they've said, the reason they fight jihah, could you please answer the question.

thanks,

As has been said here several times before, the "jihadists" can want to make us submit to their will - and this is a minority of Muslims that we're talking about here - but they don't have the capability to do it. It's like me saying I want to rob Fort Knox.

To make the analogy consistent, it'd be like you saying you want to murder americans, then having your friends fly a plane into buildings killing 3000 people, many who chose to jump to their death rather than be burned alive.

then you lauch attacks on US embassies, troops and citizens around the world.

They only, only way they don't have the capability is if we return fire. We can do it over here or over there. I prefer over there.

How about you - over here or over there, or do you not think we should 'return fire' and than when they come back over here, they'll change their minds and leave us alone and we'll all get along?

I think we should try withdrawing and see what happens.

Never underestimate your enemy! And just remember, a small percentage of the muslim population that are "radicals" or "jihadists" is still a number that should not be taken lightly. It didn't take many people to strike Spain, London, WTC, etc.

Withdrawing? Were we occupying any Islamic nations when 9/11 happened? Now we're letting Islamic terrorists dictate that we may not even support Israel, a democratic state, without violent reprisals?

We did that in Beriut and Somolia... that was a huge boon to AQ, fueling their aggression and numbers. Why do you want to keep repeating that mistake??
