Turn Mecca into a smoldering heap and do not stop until All of their cities are destroyed.
And then our enemies would fear us. Which they don’t today. Today, they laugh at us. And they should, because we are ridiculous.
They laugh at us for being fools who think that with just a little more submission, just a wee bit more self-abasement, our enemies will accept us as friends.
They laugh at us for being fools whose response to spilled blood is flowers and cards and tweets.
They laugh at us for not having a fraction of the faith in ourselves that the terrorists have in themselves.
They’re willing to blow themselves into chunks for what they believe in.
We’re not even willing to take our own side in this fight.
In a war there are many moments for compassion and tender action. There are many moments for ruthless action – what is often called ruthless – what may in many circumstances be only clarity, seeing clearly what there is to be done and doing it, directly, quickly, awake, looking at it.
