The real question do we have the brains and will to implement them.
And the answer to that question is "no". We don't have the willingness nor the resolve to do what must be done.
Our country is absolutely frozen with fear and at the complete mercy of Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia has one small thing that strikes absolute terror in the heart of anyone contemplating any kind of action against the country. That one small thing is the 'Kaaba' - "The House of Allah" - The spiritual shrine of all of Islam worldwide.
We are not at war with terrorism. That is like saying we are at war with 'bad people who do bad things'. We need to face the facts. We are at war with Islam ~ Militant Islam to be exact, and Saudi Arabia is where this violent brand of Islam originates from and where it is being spread from, even today as we speak.
Saudi Arabia the homeland of Osama bin Laden and the the hijackers of 9/11 ~ and so we beat up on Afghanistan and Iraq... HELLO MCFLY!! WAKE UP!
Do we plan on killing miliant muslims for the next 20 years while Saudi Arabia's madrasahs continue to churn out more foot soldiers worldwide?
We didn't defeat Nazism by beating up on pissant countries in North Africa ~ We knew that to defeat Nazism we had to go to the source, we had to go to Germany. You want to kill a snake - you cut off the head.
And so... The big question is "Why are we unable to resolve this problem once and for all?" ~ The reason why is because we know and so does everyone else that it will become World War 3 and it will become nuclear. To make matters worse (if it possibly could get worse) is that years of open borders, diversity and multiculturism crapola has left us with 'nips in the wire'.
And so until we have the resolve to win and the will to ensure our own survival we will die the death of a thousand cuts. We lose.
The only thing the West is starting to have in common with Islam is their mutual hatred for Christianity.
Of course we do.
Given that the president and Vice-President both have an intimate understanding of the oil business and world energy markets, you bet your ass we do.
And, given the utter ignorance of the left, you can bet that Kerry never would.
