It may come to a flat out war soon, full killing zones and all. I think things are going to get very nasty, sooner than later.

I think you are right - but a fight that must be fought now - or, instead of thousands dying in that region, it will be millions around the world - including on US soil.

The same enemy the civilized nations have had to pound back into the sand every few hundred years is no longer confined in one generalized area of the world. They have slowly, with malice aforethought, permeated every country...It is not going to be easy - but it needs to be done - we cannot twiddle our thumbs and hope for the best. We did that in 1938, 1939 etc. By the time we took the blinders off, things had escalated almost to the point of no return - and millions died who would not have had Hitler been nipped in the bud.

This is another one of those times in history -

And Bush better get the hell out in front of the people and get on and stay on message and force the democrats to face this issue square on

So far he is not acting as a LEADER up front where he needs to be communicating

"and millions died who would not have had Hitler been nipped in the bud."

Sadly I have the sense the Euro's are angling towards appeasement just like before WWII. History not learned from will be repeated.

Evan worse we are "working" with France on getting a "solution" to the crisis. This is all very disconcerting.

---including on US soil---

Yep. Time to start gathering personal intelligence.
