Yes, these are sheep stalking lions. I have to wonder at the claim that "American blood is best," because they have tasted so very little of it at such a huge cost.

When the Islamists and their allies have succeeded in keeping the contest in the political realm, they can do very well, because there are a lot of people ideologically committed to the notion that the West needs to be engineered in various different directions politically. When it comes to a physical contest, this is simply not the case. They lose. In fact, they get their butts kicked. There is an admirable resilience in that they keep coming back but in fact, they tend to lose. A lot.

In Iraq in a simple physical contest the United States and its allies had a 25/1 kill ratio over the best the jihadists had. That's an interesting number when one considers the claim, "you can't kill all 1.2 billion of them!" There are 330 million Americans. At that ratio, yes, we can. We absolutely can.
