Come on. The war spending is not the issue. Look at a budget pie chart. The entitelments are what are killing us! Here is a nice chart of defense spending from the Heritage Foundation:

We are spending under norms, despite the war.

Also, the idea that if we don't do whatever we will be wearing burkhas is very tired. The muzzies are not a conventional military threat, and they will never have a serious impact on American culture. They are like a big crop of lake flies, intensely irritating, but not a threat to our continued existence.

The attempt to pump them up to Nazi level existential threat are also getting very old, and discredit us.

Yes.

It's stupid to think about global geopolitics and demographic reality.

If we don't think about militant Islam, it will go away.
