I support Israel, her allies, and whatever military action needs to happen to protect her. I support eradicating the terrorists. I don't support armchair quarterbacks talking smack.

I responded in support of someone who questioned the "Bomb the Pyramids/be cute by writing the f word with the letters reversed" mindset. If you want to argue, I welcome it, but argue the point I was making -- that the vitriol in parts of this thread is not on the side of right -- nor is hate.

Bombing the pyramids is foolish because they hold little interest for Muslims; indeed, the Taliban would probably treat them as they did the Buddhist mountain carvings.

However, given the reactions of the Egyptian government posted on this thread, it is apparent that our enemies are not only the terrorists themselves but the civilians who cheer them, succor them and drag their feet in fighting them. If "moderate Islam" exists, it had better rise up and bring us some terrorists' heads on pikes. Until then, I feel that just as we did not blather about "moderate Shinto" or "mainstream fascism" in World War II, we had best be prepared to understand what the Muslims already do: theirs is a fighting faith and they are practicing it with relish.

I did. I addressed the reason for the vitriol even as it relates to islamic history.
