I understand exactly what shes saying, and used to think just like that, then I started to live in the real world and now understand its either, 1. We work and try to help these people progress or 2. Kill every Muslim on the planet,,,
Im not prepared to spill that much blood so we need to change some hearts & minds along with the culture.

You are naive, ignorant and unsophisticated in the ways of the world. And you worship the ground that PresBush walks on. Not a good set of circumstances to be discussing the reality of the WOT and our Muslim enemies.

Warning, don't get between me and any "islamofascist" or "jihadist". I will go right through you, to get at my enemy. Okay.

No disrespect, but I think you are living in a dream world. Islam is inflexible. Everything that Muslims believe is written in the Koran as Mohammad dictated it. Other religions have evolved and become more tolerant. Islam is incapable of evolving or peacefully coexisting with other religions.

"we need to change some hearts & minds along with the culture"

Couldn't agree more as to the goal, but they have to want change first. Only way I see that happening is for them to come to their own realization that their ways don't lead anywhere but poverty and/or death over the long haul.

Trying to force cultural change will only lead to further feelings of resentment. Rewarding nations who don't change, and continuing to look the other way is just inviting a knife to the back.

"or 2. Kill every Muslim on the planet,,, Im not prepared to spill that much blood so we need to change some hearts & minds along with the culture."

As I have said before, the culture is toxic. That is the essence of what she is saying. Western Civilization has been at war with this toxic culture since 700 A.D. Now is the culmination. The simple truth: the solar system isn't big enough for Western Civilization and Islam. So...
