I wonder if the Sunni Man considers this more evidence that his side is winning the war on terror in Iraq?

It means there were more terrorists to fight.

This is hard to explain, 'cause I'm getting the feeling that you think that war works like LazerTag.

We kill people. The people attached to those people try to kill us. We kill them. More people try to kill us for killing the people that were trying to kill us for killing people attached to them. We kill them, too. Then yet more people, ones who were attached to the ones that we killed for trying to kill us after we killed people that they were attached to for trying to kill us because we killed people, try to kill us. And then we ... well, you get how this works, right?

The only way you can "win" under these circumstances is A) if you want the fight to continue indefinitely or B) genocide. Personally, I'm against indefinite war and/or genocide. I regard them as unacceptable options in American foreign policy.

You want to call it Genocide, fine, then call it what you will. The fact is Muslim terrorists attacked us and they did so without valid justification or provocation. We have taken to them, the war THEY ASKED FOR!

Now there is no right to murder innocent people, they believe that there is, for all manner of specious reasons and those that carry this belief will be annihilated.

Now if Hussein Obama is elected and the US surrenders the middle east to Muslim terrorism, then that fight will simply collect interests until the certainty of another exponentially more viscious attack upon the US comes along, then we'll simply begin killing them again, but in much MUCH larger groups with less concern for collateral damage to what are today considered non-combatants and continue to do so until there is either no more to kill or evil flees them due to its keen sense of survival.

I, my side, "BUSHIES" we want to finish the fight now, to end the problem and to give an oppressed people a chance at freedom. We realize that this enemy is an evil, it is a false religion, a fraud which perpetrates itself through lies and deceit. We realize that there is no negotiating with mass murderers, because they have no principles to rest on. They are willing to end the lives of innocent people, for no other reason than they are frustrated with their impotence. We understand that you can't give powerto that personality without knowing that whatever power you give to them will be set back on you as certainly as the sun rises.

Now I don't believe that we will have to kill anywhere near the volumes of murderers that you claim would rise to the level of genocide. But I do believe that if an entire culture was out to murder our culture that killing that entire culture is not only the right thing to do, but the duty of our culture, a duty which stems from the responsibilities that come with our human rights.

Now I ask YOU, what would be your solution to resolve the problem where an entire culture is determined to destroy our Culture? This culture could not be bargained with, they would not compromise and demanded that our culture accept their culture without reservations or face their constant wrath and eventual cultural demise.

What say you sir? And please do not dismiss this scenario to avoid answering it. What would be your decision in regard to what actions to take in our national defense?

So we should let al Qaeda murder people in Iraq becasue *one* of their focal points is in Afghanistan?

Do you have any idea how sick and insane that is?

Is Australia a "free kill zone"?

I was just picturing DuH and Jerome and maybe "Gun-Happy" superdude to post some serious flame posts in response to that...

I hope Jerome does come back, I'd like to hear what he has to say in response.
