Well, I guess I'll go with you.

It's time to cut to the chase here and fight this thing like a war.
It's time for a Harry Truman moment.
Screw the attorneys, politicians, peacenicks, Geneva Convention and the rest.
Give the collateral damage 24 hours notice to enter camps. Then go in to the cities, bomb, shoot, run over any thing else that moves.
Then give them their God forsaken piece of sand back and LEAVE.

How's that for political correctness? It's either that or get used to being in Iraq...forever and watching the endless flow of coffins coming home. This haggling over appeasement and being threatened has never worked and it never will.

I keep wondering just what a William T. Sherman...or a Stonewall Jackson...or a George Patton would say and do.

Enough is enough....time to fight the war like a war. Time to let those Islamic Terrorists KNOW...that hells a comin'...and it wears the Uniform of an American soldier.

Amen!

I'm totally with you, right up until you say we should then leave. This ought to be an option we should consider:

If we are going to do it this way, we ought to make the determination to make this a COLONY of the US. If we are going to do this, we ought to plant one of the most formidible military bases there that has ever been constructed in history, replete with all the most advanced weaponry. We take advantage of all that sand and virtually uninhabitable terrain to conduct very visible weapons testing. We use this as a base of operations to conduct all our future purgings of Islamofacist behavior. If we need more room, we take that, too. If we are going to do this, we MAKE it FOR THE OIL, and take full advantage of that oil - every last drop of it. God knows we are more adept at utilizing the resources of this planet in a more productive manner than anyone else is - especially the Islamofacists - so we would be honoring the planet by doing so.

It is also time to do as stboz says: "Folks, it's time to start showing up outside mosques in this country. No violence....but, put them on the spot. Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists." "Moderate Islam" better show up and learn to get with us - for real - and pronto.

It is time to start letting the world know there are other methods of utilizing massive force than the way the US has been inclined to over the past century. Cut and run is NOT the smart way to do this.
