There is no way that the good people of our nation will come to grips with terrorism until we start to reflect Israel in our malls and stadiums.

Sorry. There are many deaths in America that must be borne first. The first response will be to change the government and try pacifism. When that fails, and only when that fails, the next government will declare martial law and give us a "patriot act 2" with real crackdowns on freedom issues and muslims. That government will change the world, and we will probably then embark on a true age of American Imperialism in order to control the nasties.

The longer it takes us to come to grip with the need, the longer the pacifist government lasts and the more deaths it takes, the greater the imperialism will be.

It takes no genius to make such prophecies. Most people only look at the first step in a process, and they are truly incapable of seeing the third step. Our children will be living in this age, but I don't expect to see it.

Take heart: we will prevail, in time.
(Unless Christ comes before that time)

Unfortunately, that is what I see as the future if we do not deal with this relgious/fascist threat now.

The words you state sound eerily familiar to the actions we were forced to undertake to defeat Japan and Germany in the past, although the implementation of true imperialism was not enacted or necessary.

However, the enemy we face today is far more heinous than the ideologies we fought than. The only saving grace is that our enemy today is not nearly as militarily powerful. But even with that being said, they can, and have, caused serious carnage throughout the world. If left alone, their reach and power will grow.

We have learned nothing from history accept how to repeat it. Our children will pay the price of us not heeding its call.
