Who can argue with the sentiment? But what are the options? The Soviets invaded Afganistan because there were concerned about a rise in Islamic nationalism spilling over into Soviet Republics. All they ended up doing was radicalizing the population. Someone else pointed out, you've got a land locked country surrounded by mountains with little or no urban infrastructure and you're enemy is someone who rides around on camels with a cell phone.

The only way I can think of to get their attention is turn the capitals of any country that was a part of this into a parking lot.

Does anyone believe that if these guys had a nuke they wouldn't use it?

Maybe up to 30,000 dead, this is WAR.

This is not about Muslims. True Muslims do not touch alcohol and one of the pilots was seen getting drunk two nights before and refusing to pay his bill in a Florida bar. He therefore cannot be a Muslim hero regardless what the claims are. This is about chicken sh%t limp D$cked coward wannabe warriors who target innocent and easy civilian targets that are already trapped in buildings. What warrior would prove his worth on easy prey ? Cheyenne indians used to go into battle and prove their bravery and skill by simply riding through their opponent and touching him - 'counting coup'. Send 4 Cheyenne on ponies to handle these wimps ! Or carpet bomb to soften the soil for fairways. If someone reports that we hit innocent civilians I swear I will laugh.
