It's called WAR and has been around for centuries. The Somali's don't have a government to protect them or an army. I don't know anyone that would stand around and allow their loved ones to be murdered one by one. We have a God given right to self defense and we already know who wants to kill us. I don't need a specific name of a specific perp to know when my life is in danger.
Was Bush justified in bombing Afghanistan after 9-11, or should he have just told the families of the 3000 to go find Osama and kill him themselves? Part of the problem we are having in America today is we don't know how to fight a war anymore. That would explain Obama's war in Libya and why we don't know how to fight it. As far as I'm concerned, Kaddaffy still owes for Pan Am 103 and we have every right to level Tripoli starting with kaddaffy and his spawn. If a few people die that didn't take part in the bombing, tough! They should have taken care of him back then, otherwise they are guilty also.
Just as an aside, my father got the DFC for dropping bombs in Germany on schools, hospitals and private homes because they were Germans, not soldiers. If he had to bail out, however,these "innocent" men, women and children would have stuck a pitchfork in him and his crew. Trying to fight a sterile war is impossible. It's time we figured out who the enemy is and start to fight back. Otherwise we will just be waiting to be slaughtered like the Jews in WWII. Ever wonder how it would have turned out if the Jews would have fought back in the 30's? I believe the Jews outnumbered the Nazi's, but weren't allowed to have guns. The German citizens voted the Nazi's to power. Were they innocent?
If America is attacked, we voted Obama into power. Will we be held innocent by our enemies? We will fight for our land and families, not because we love Obama.
The Bible tells us we will be persecuted, but that there is no greater love that to lay down our lives for each other. If the Somali's allow the butcher of their people, they will just be butchered and forgotten. God doesn't REQUIRE us to die for our faith only to be willing to. David was a man after God's own heart and did his share of killing. When the Jews went into the promised land, they killed EVERYONE, even the animals. If you worship Allah, are you innocent to God? If your religion says you are to kill God's people, are you innocent? When the 6th commandment is read, "Thou shall not kill," it really should be translated, "Thou shall not shed innocent blood". Determining who is guilty and who is innocent when talking of Muslims takes about a half a millisecond.
One more thing,...Israel takes rockets and blown up buses almost every day. You sound like one of the UN thugs that would blame them for attacking Gaza. As far as I'm concerned, they have earned the right to level the whole damned thing and dare anyone to say anything. How long would you allow Mexico to lob rockets into America before you would demand action of your government? Mexico has murdered many of our citizens. Lets see what the body count gets to before something is done.
In 1933 there were about 500,000 Jews in Germany.
In 1929 there were 178,000 actual members of the Party, with of course a far greater number of believers and sympathizers.
In 1930 they won 108 seats in the Reichstag.
By January 30, 1933 a total of 1.5M party cards had been issued.
The Somalis are 99 point something per cent Muslim. I was quite surprised to hear that there are ANY Christians in the country.
So you suggest this tiny minority start killing random Muslims to deter additional attacks on Christians? Morality and Christian doctrine aside, this doesn't strike me as a tactic that is likely to attain its objectives.
I'm curious how far you would carry this analogy. When an unknown black person or persons kill white people, should whites respond by killing 10:1 in random almost certainly uninvolved black people?
Or should black people retaliate for attacks on "their people" by attacking and killing random whites while rioting? Well, actually they do so fairly frequently. Do you think they are justified in this? If not, why not?
Highly unlikely, simply because it would have been a huge waste of munitions. Now large numbers of those things were certainly hit and there was justifiably little concern given to such collateral damage. But there was no shortage of targets of tactical and strategic value that far exceeded the value of terror attacks.
