There have been many here at FR, myself included at times, that have made light of the current Administration's phrase, "The Religion of Peace". I think this phrase is what the article attempts to deal with on its most conceptually elemental level.

However, for Bush to come out and declare things along the lines in which the author points would be to stir up more of a hornet's nest than has already been done by our actions. Does anybody remember Bush #41's comment, "Wouldn't be prudent"? Methods of action are passed down from Father to Son. 'Prudency' at the present time dictates we accomplish each designated task one at a time because it seems we are very alone in this struggle. Most of the rest of the 'Civilized World' (ie. Europe, etc.) seems to be, at best, uninvolved, and at worst, downright contrary to our overall mission. We are stretched at the present time, yet we must not fail, for Civilization depends on our success. 'Prudency' dictates a 'methodical' approach: First Afghanistan, then Iraq. Syria, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela........."Take a number, we'll be with you shortly".

I truly wish Bush would call a spade a spade! However, realistically, I know he can't. Not yet at least.

I am going to make a BIG assumption that the lack of belicose language on the Adminstration's part is actually a concious attempt to slow things down a bit and pick off these idiots one by one.

JMHO.
