We cannot win if we fight it by being fanatical in return.

I disagree. We stand a much better chance of winning it through commitment and ruthlessness (the western way of war) than the PC, "why do they hate us?", "more sensitive" war approach.

As long as the cult of Islam is regarded as a religion precious little can be done about it under the law.

Congress should pass a law outlawing Islam as a valid religion in the U.S. That ought to solve everything.

Ooops. Guess they'll have to repeal the first amendment first.

Interesting take on the concept of "religion".
Both Germany and Japan obviously neglected the perfect vehicle for their world adventures in the thirties and forties.
Just think how differently things might have played out if they had simply referred to their aggression, what they did, as their religion.
Then dressed their million man (religious) armies in civilian clothes and sent them overseas as "students" and "tourists".

Germany & Japan didn't want to destroy our Western 'culture', they wanted to control it, and us.

I have no problem with the "western way of war".
We should go after the fundamentalist leaders, and kill them all. IMO, our politicians are too 'PC', not me.

--- I was referring to being fanatical enough to violate our own Constitutions BOR's, as you well know.
