One side of me agrees absolutely, but the other side says the enemy can be beaten without (specific) violence. The USSR fell without a shot. Brains, courage, prayer—and probably not in that order.

The Soviets (Communists) are/were pure materialists; i.e., they only care about what’s available to them in this world, that is being atheists, the next world is nonexistent. Therefore all that was precious was in this world, and in the end, couldn’t be risked on mutually assured destruction through a nuclear exchange. The mohammedans on the other hand, are both, and are willing to do as martyrs to get the delights of this world in the next. Per their perverse beliefs, they gain heaven (paradise) automatically as martyrs in war against non-mohammedans. Not an easy belief system to take out, without a shot. By all means, as Christians, violence as a last resort, and that has been usually the case with these thugs.
