    What has Iran done ? You are making stuff up and pretending it is true. "Lets call some nation our enemies - they have done nothing yet but might in the future" What kind of logic is this ?

    At the same time - you want to give Al Qaeda - the group that did 911 and still is causing havoc around the world - and those groups that share this ideology - a pass ?

    I don't get it. This makes no sense. We have this nut job ideology spreading around the world like a plague .. people are getting into vehicles and mowing down people on the sidewalk due to this ideology. This happened in Canada just last month - and look at Europe.

    You give these people a pass but, you want to "Kill every Russian" because - although they have done nothing - they "might" do something in the future.

    This makes no sense.

    We have nothing to fear but fear itself.

    There is much to fear but - more comment would be helpful. Is there something wrong with my logic ? I am seriously confounded by the posters position.

    I meant that fear is the motivating factor for the majority of people's attitudes towards real and perceived enemies. Logic and truth take a back seat.

    BTW, the truck attack in Toronto was by a crazy "incel" dude who was frustrated cause he couldn't get laid. Nothing to do with AQ or Islam.
