One of the most important things in a war is to avoid doing stupid things that make your war more difficult than it has to be. Your "kill 'em all" foolishness is precisely what bin Laden and his ilk are trying to get you to do.
Lest we forget, folks on this thread are apparently not content with confining the killing to the actual terrorists. You're defending a position that appears to call for the deaths of Muslims in general (to get their attention, apparently).
Suppose you actually get the chance to go off and do some of the killing you're defending. How do you expect the non-terrorist Muslims will respond to that? Do you think they'd just roll over and give up? Nope -- they'd fight. And you'll have made an unnecessary enemy.
Lemme 'splain somethin' to ya, Lucy......
Many of the ones who AREN'T terrorists certainly know who IS and who MIGHT BE.
The fact that there's SILENCE from them makes them equally guilty as those who actually commit acts of terror. The day they start turning them in, denouncing publicly and loudly what the extremists do, maybe even issue a few fat'was and do some "internal housecleaning", (like the mob), of their own people would go a long way to defusing anything happening to them.
However if they don't after say a school is attacked and lots of kids are butchered? There will be hell to pay in the Muslim community because they didn't stop something or drop a dime on someone, or didn't come oot with enough condemntation fast enough.
They'll prolly send CAIR to moan and whine about how unfair thgey're treated and that thgey're being profiled. Well, that'll be the least of their worries.
One American child is worth more than 1,000 of them, so there.
