> What would you have done to “crush radical islam.” <
Well, since you asked…
Step 1: Clearly identify the problem. And declare war.
That’s something FDR did after Pearl Harbor.
And something W refused to do.
Step 2: Identify and shut down every mosque in the US that has even the smallest whiff of radicalism. Deport the leadership.
Just like how FDR shut down the German-American Bund.
Step 3: Punish al-Qaeda and the Taliban.
Make the rubble bounce. And quietly put Saudi Arabia on notice.
None of that ridiculous “nation-building” crap.
Just like how FDR shut down the German-American Bund.
And interned the Japanese-Americans.
