The 'official' statements from our government is that this is 'not a religious war'. They know very well that it is. Diplomacy- and an amount of naivete,IMO, -prevents that from being said.
The soldiers in the field, the ones dealing with this face to face, know damn well that is IS a 'holy' war - and they are fighting against the UNholy ones. You don't prosecute them for it- you praise and encourage them.

To win- you use the best weapons you have, physical and psychological. They want to use the Koran to dominate the world-use the Koran to defeat them. Immerse it in urine. Line a pig pen with it. Paper the floor with it and leave not a place to walk that isn't on Mohammeds word.
Why should we respect their document of death and destruction when it proposes all other religions be eradicated?

If the idea is which side is going to dominate the world- and make no mistake, it is- then it has to start face-to-face, one on one. They will tell us how to act, or we will tell them. Islam is that black and white. To go on thinking compromise and reason are possible( with entire Muslim countries, or individual Muslims) is suicidal.

Everyone should go back and re-read ClearBlueSky's Post No. 40 because he understands this war better than anyone in the media or in government.

Well said. Lately, it seems that the Muslims know exactly which buttons to push to get us to jump to their bidding. They cry foul, and we trip over ourselves to make nice. I posted in the other thread that we've become a laughinstock. We're more concerned about offending people than we are about mopping up this War on Terror.
