Look my Marehan friend, you are a smart kid. But you are blinded by your faith. It's all hogwash man. If you want to believe that crap, go ahead. Join the billions of other religiously inclined who are too lazy to think and prefer to believe what mommy, daddy and Santa Claus or whoever told them when they were kids.
The US is doing anything other than "tip toeing around". We are killing Muslims almost as fast as they kill each other. And as a population we are pissed off. We have an armed force that go reach any spot on the globe - you know this. The B2 can range anywhere, and at anytime of our choosing we can bomb any target. Our navy can easily, and with impunity, close any harbor. The new development of EMP devices not yet released by DoD (but already reported in news media) can destroy and entire electric grid. Think about what that means. Every electrical device in a city and it's power generation, destroyed. Nothing, no cars, no radios, no TVs, no cell phones - nothing works. We could easily cut off the Arabian peninsula, seize the oil fields, create free fire zones, cut off in ports and exports of food - this would be childs play. Kill every man, woman and child. If you don't think we have the capacity to do that right now, you are very wrong. In fact, it is MUCH easier to exterminate, than it is to try and do what we are doing in Iraq.
Using air bursts, which generate very little radioactive fallout, we could destroy every major Arab and Persian city in one hour. One hour.
The problem with Islamic systems is they impinge on all kinds of freedoms. And in so doing, they become less competetive. The Islamic world is NEVER going to catch up economically or culturally to the West. They haven't been able to entertain the reformation that would be required to do so.
Step away from the emotion of it and think analytically and you will see what I am saying. In order for you to openly and honestly analyze the issue, you first have to entertain the possibilty that Islam is not right. You can't do that. When you do that, your world comes apart. Your whole foundation. Not to mention where you subsequently fit in within your own society. For that reason, you can not entertain anything other than the conclusions that you have already drawn.
Muslims don't like to think this thing through. Now I ain't saying that all the US actions are right in this conflict. But you are saying that all these little Islamic oriented acts of violence don't mean anything, and I'm saying they do. Now look, I've seen a million Muslims conduct a million little acts of violence and resistance, and they all meant something. Everyone acts like they don't, but they do, that's what's so focking dangerous about the whole thing. There's an insidious something going on there where, nobody really wants to talk about up front, but you know it, we know it - focking George Bush knew it, and the Muslims should have better focking known better. I mean, that's US national security you are guys are focking with. We're not going to have a sense of humor about that sort of shite. Ya know what I'm saying?
