General Pershing had it right!

When dealing with people such as the Islamic Extremists I feel in order for them to understand is to hit them in the head with a bigger and harder bat than the one they hit us in the head with. If they hit us once we hit them 10 times and repeat it 10 to 1 for each blow they inflict. If they listen then fine but if they don't then hopefully at some point in their 10 "whacks" they'll expire and we can move on to the next one. The problem has been we've had a bunch of spineless weenies dealing with them and after they got hit they tried to sit with them and discuss what anger problems they had as a child that would cause them to try to inflict pain on someone that loves them as much as the liberal left loves them.

You tend to lump folks in one bucket and paint them with a broad brush.

I don't love any religious extremists, and I consider myself since the election of George W. Bush a "left" as you call it... "liberal left".

I consider your views as extreme as "an eye for an eye"; and "turn the other cheek".

Its been 5 years since the US invasion of IRAQ, and now Afganastan. I don't see US citizens any safer than before 9/11; its that we are just more cognizant of the perils that could happen. That just doesn't make us safer in my mind.

I believe that when the entire Republican Admin. is gone in 2008, others around the world view will change.
And just maybe, the US can dialog with the world and they may decide to listen with support. There is no middle east country that wants to deal with the US on any level, unless they receive billions from us including IRAN, and N. Korea and IRAQ. As long as these countries can extort $$ from the American people to buy peace, they will consider it.

Not until the American people MAKE CHANGE IN VOVEMBER will htere be any kind of hope for the world to negotiate some kind of "peaceful existence". Unfortunately, all lot can happen between now and 2008.

So where would you lump all the Islamofacist extremist?

I consider myself since the election of George W. Bush a "left" as you call it... "liberal left".;

and the liberal left is precisely the reason for me, along with many others abandoning our party of choice.

I consider your views as extreme as "an eye for an eye"; and "turn the other cheek".

Defending ones freedom and country in your view is extreme?
Sorry to hear that, go live in France if capitulation is your cup of tea.

Its also been 5 years since the last terrorist attack on U.S. Soil.
Yes we could be more secure but we would'nt want to offend anyone who wishes to illegally cross our borders now would we? 🙄

Oh you mean the same kind of peaceful dialog and existence we had with the last administration?

remember the 1993 world trade center bombing, the botched raid in Mogadishu in 1993, the 1996 Khobar towers bombing, the 1998 Embassy bombings, the 2000 USS Cole bombing, and lets not forget that failed abortion in kosovo in 1999 where over 200,000 serbs and other minorities have been murderd by ethnic cleansing. The UN has really shown their value and worth thru peaceful dialog huh?

Are you suggesting more of that same failed policy?

Don't you think the enemy views our previous failures and lack of decisivness as a sign of weakness?

Hello...They (the enemy) don't want peace, they want to remove your head with a dull knife.

This is exactly why the "left" gets accused of not "getting it". It's actually very simple. The Islamic religion does not want a "peaceful existence". The Quran spells this out with glaring clearity. Either you convert to Islam or you die. It's that simple. I will never convert to Islam so therefore they have targeted me and any other that feels that way to die. Now I have a choice. Capitulate and let them kill me or fight and take as many of them with me as I can before they kill me. My choice will be very simple if I'm ever confronted with that scenario.
Personally I think the US should turn the entire Islamic region into a large glass factory.

Well there was a time when the radical Japanese Imperilist were willing to commit suicide strapped to a bomb.

Look at what a peace loving country they became once we sent the message.

Amen!! That's exactly what I'm talking about!

How do you negotiate with someone when their first offer of negotiation is "we want to kill you" and they don't care if they die in the process?

Simple, convert to Islam and wear a Turbin or a Burka!

It's a waste of time to negotiate with those type of people. The best negotiation tactic would be to arrange their meeting with Allah and move on to arranging another meeting with Allah for the next one you encounter.
