I would prescirbe doing more of what we are doing - toppling the governments of the enablers of these terror groups. Stiking down the terror cells wherever we find them. In short, I prescribe doing what we are already doing.

In the event of a nuclear strike against the U.S. that's not nearly enough, and I'd venture to guess that the vast majority of Americans would agree with me.

Also, I would shore up the border, cancel visas and deport visitors from suspect nations....

Well, I agree with you on that one. In fact, I maintain that it's reasonable to conclude that because we haven't taken these steps we're not entirely serious about fighting this war. ....or that we have other priorities.

What you fail to grasp is that we're not just talking about a few Islamist nutballs here. We're talking about millions of them, and perhaps tens of millions. And considering that the fanaticism is getting more widespread by the day, it's inevitably going to get to the point where nuking their epicenter - Mecca and Medina - is the only option we have. .....And in the event the U.S. is nuked, not only will that option be on the table, it'll most likely be used.

We will just have to agree to disagree and hope we never find out what happens. I don't see us using nuclear weapons on Mecca and Medina in the context I described. You think I'm wrong.

You think we would nuke Mecca and Medina in that conext. I think you are wrong.

Since we are both Freepers, lets just shake on it and continue agreeing on other stuff (I imagine - but I may be wrong - that we probably agree on a whole lot of stuff).

Peace, brother! And lets hope this situation never happens!
