Pacifists like Jesus and Ghandi take notice. You are with us, or you are with the terrorists.

I wouldn't class Jesus and Ghandi as do-nothing pacifists. They were activists who (mostly) practiced and preached love and non-violence in opposition to hate and violence.

John 2:13 Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the moneychangers doing business. 15 When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers' money and overturned the tables.

Luke 22:35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing. 36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

Rev.19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

Imagine, you are being killed.

Do you strike your attacker?

You would? Why you murderer!

Imagine, your child is being killed.

Do you strike your attacker?

The point is, that terrorists have not stopped killing, have they?

In fact, many Islamic groups are on record as praising the efforts of New York, Washington and Pennsylvania. Do it again!

Your way is anti-human, anti-life. A blind alley to nowhere.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Freedom, and Security, are not negotiable.

Peace comes after War.

Yup. Don't forget where Jesus made the whip and flogged the moneychangers right out of the temple. Not to mention all that He did preincarnate in the Old Testament!

Jesus whipped the merchants, violently, out of the temple. Sometimes, violence is justified.
