I’m with y’all on this one.....only with a twist. My contention for years now is that we pull out of these pissant, unwinnable wars and very publicly warn the Muslim world thusly:
One more atrocity against the US or one of our allies, one more act of jihad, etc., and our response will be the following:
We will nuke one of your religious centers, starting with Mecca, totally obliterating it. Medina would be next. Then we’d start on your capitals, beginning with Tehran, followed by Damascus.
You set off a bomb or hijack a plane, we take out a city unblinkingly....and there’s not a damned thing you can do to stop it.
This would not be an idle threat, and it’s undoubtedly one we’d have to make good on at least once. If Russia or China balked at such a threat....screw ‘em. Truth is, I think they’d secretly love it given their own major problems with Islam.
Islamists understand one thing, and one thing only: strength.
Right on.
Love seeing the truth, and your post is / and was the truth.

I completely agree, time for implementing the plan, you typed.
