...meanwhile I patiently await an answer to my question...
you want me to write down a single sentence like "kill all muzzies" or something?
how did we win WW2, how did the US get rid of the communists?
were fighting a global war, and we WILL win, we will destroy radical islam because we have superior firepower, motivation, intellect and resources.
we will defeat them wherever they are, i am not a general and neither are you, there is no single answer to "how we beat them", thats like telling a child "those guys are bad guys", its simplifying things for a simple mind, i hold you higher then that.
You presume that I am looking for an all encompassing simple answer to a complex problem. You are mistaken in your presumption. Perhaps I should have clarified. Did we win WW2 by allowing Germans and Japanese to immigrate into England and the U.S. during a time of war? Did we beat the communists by being afraid to name who and what the enemy was because of political correctness. Do you believe the way we go about fighting this "global war" today is correct? Do you believe that the U.S. should not have dropped two atomic bombs on Japan when they had the chance and instead fought a long, protracted war resulting in the deaths of millions?
there were germans and japanese in the US during these times, the japanese were put into camps, this solved NOTHING, its a dark chapter in american history, and i myself questioned if it really was unnecessary, and it was according to history.
we must remember muslims arent a single entity, but yes we must crackdown harder on militant ones in our nations and indeed everywhere, this does not mean put ALL muslims in camps.
i support the decision to bomb hiroshima and nagasaki, but remember how many years it took to reach japan? they had to conquer islands and make a safe route in order to deliver the killing blow, this is a metaphor to how we cant just go around nuking the muslim extremists, its a delicate process of war.
Whether the Japanese internment camps were successful or not is debatable. I do not believe that ALL Japanese in the U.S. were the enemy but don't doubt that some were. The challenge is how to differentiate? You state that "we must crackdown harder on militant ones in our nations and indeed everywhere, this does not mean put ALL muslims in camps." How do you distinguish the militant Muslims? The flaw in your logic is that, to do both, is impossible. Yes, you can use intelligence and attempt to infiltrate the militant ones, but this is unreliable at best and at worst not supported by a segment of the population based on civil rights violations.
Also, the fact that Muslims already live in the U.S. does not address the insanity of continuing to let Muslims immigrate to the U.S. and to keep the borders unprotected.
My question about the atomic bomb was not meant to insinuate that we should nuke the Muslim world. It was to convey a mindframe that existed then that said we will use anything at our disposal to defeat our enemy, no matter how cruel it is deemed to be by some. I do not believe this mindframe exists today.
As far as I'm concerned, we appear to agree that the west is facing a huge problem and that we need to defeat it. We probably do not agree on the method to do so.
