The sad part is that modern nations (and subsequently thier militaries) only believe in borders and armies. The concept of religion is just an idea that various individuals have instead of a binding ideals of a nation without borders. Declaring war on a religion is just something they won't do.
On a side note I got to thinking after typing this:
"The concept of religion is just an idea that various individuals have instead of a binding ideals of a nation without borders."
It would seem that islam, with its rather uniformity in rules regardless of location, would fit quite well with GW's NWO. Don't expect him to denounce islam in *any* way soon. < /tin-foil-hat >

It's just a dysfunctional culture. Maybe it can reform itself. But things are starting to progress and will probably get worse. I'm not happy about the prospect of where things will probably end up. If we are nuked, and some of our cities are rendered uninhabitable, then we will have to respond, like Tancredo said. But against who? It will probably be done by a terrorist group not affiliated with a country. So we just can't pick a random country? The target would have to be the sites that inspire the religion. That is preferable to just wiping out the entire Middle East.
Then the whole world would have to to deal with the consequences of containing a religion in its insane death throes. But eventually that too would subside. It's very scary and I don't say that with any glee or bloodlust. If anyone can give me cause to be optimistic, do so.
