[...when we were at war with the Japanese, Germans and Italians we made them subhuman through media propaganda to make the fighting and killing go a bit easier.....we now need to use all tools in our war against radical Islam...]
I'm perfectly willing to kill people who deserve to be killed (such as the Jihadists) and to also have the killing done in my name. We also have plenty of men and women in our military volunteering to kill the Jihadists because they feel the same way. I don't see why invoking racism to goad more people into helping is of any benefit. If the morally legitimate reason isn't enough, then why would a reason based on mindless bigotry suffice?

Radical Islam is an insane murder cult.
Moderate Islam is its Trojan Horse in the West.
"I think there are moderate Muslims, they are even the large majority, but I do not believe there is a moderate Islam,"
