If this kind of crap continues, and escalates, the time will come for us to take the gloves completely off in this war. No more Mr. Nice Guy, no more being compassionate. Compassion for inhuman monsters will quickly get us dead. We're trying to restrain ourselves, not so much for PR purposes, but because we're honorable and don't want innocents to die. But if the enemy raises the stakes, we'd better have the stomach to fumigate the vermin and to hell with public opinion. The world hates us already, even as we do our damnedest to limit collateral damage. Regardless of what we do, they will still hate us. We have nothing to lose -- except the war.
This is not just a war, people. This is a biblical battle. The foe is pure evil, and we're going to have to smite it with biblical wrath. Remember, this is Babylon, the literal one, and it is a den of foul and evil spirits. Just as St. Paul explained, we fight not only against flesh and blood, but against powers and principalities. If our President and our troops wear the full armor of God, and do not shy away from whatever needs to be done no matter how it might play to world opinion, we will win. The rest of the world, and our own enemies within, cannot possibly hate us more than they already do. So to hell with them, and may they be utterly damned! And the millions of them put together cannot withstand the fury and indignation of the one true God.
