Something like this...
"Look folks, you have told us time and time again that these terrorist attacks are the work of a fanatical few and are not perpetrated in your name, yet these folks that continuing blowing themselves and innocents into plasma claim that they ARE acting in your name -- and we do not see you doing much to stop them.
"That being the case, and since you refuse to identify them, turn them in, we are forced to categorically eliminate the threat by restricting Muslims to a set area and to subject them to the most intense scrutiny whenever they venture outside that area."
Terrorists do NOT operate in a vacuum. For every dingleberry that blows his lame idiotic self to supposed Allahland in hopes of eternal nookie, there are a huge number of people whose actions both overt and covert make it possible.
They include not only the Mullahs preaching Jihad, the actual recruiters, the bomb-makers, the financiers the paperwork artists, etc., but also the friends and families of the bomber.
I do not for a moment believe that these people would make a decision like that, or gather up the courage to actually volunteer for it, without letting their desires/intentions be known in some fashion prior to strapping on the device. And, that friends of mine, make those people just as guilty as the bomber.
Terrorists also need safe-houses, routine medical and dental support, food, clothing -- all the normal things everyone else needs, all of which have to be provided by people who know who they are, what they plan, and are willing to support them. They also bare direct responsibility for the deaths of anyone who the bombers kill.
Collective guilt? You betcha!!!
And as soon as the rest of the Islamic world realizes that they will be held collectively responsible for the actions of the Jihad-jockeys, the sooner the supposed moderates Islamic governments (assuming such actually exist) are going to start cracking down on the operations, eliminating the leaders and generally pouring cold water on the fires.
Interesting. The timing for this article is very appropriate considering that the Pakistan scenario may be the first case of the extermination option!
You’re comments sound familiar to me - in another context, of course, because I’m a Serb. That is to say, your comments sound similar to those made by General Ratko Mladic during the war in BiH.
I couldn't agree more.
I look at war as an economic problem. When you make the cost of waging a war so high, then people will reconsider the value of war.
Sounds good. No one has ever transported a nuclear weapon over a well sealed border...
