The best defense of the rights of all Americans is to consistently defend the application of the Bill of Rights for all Americans, Muslim, Christian, or otherwise. Otherwise, we will get a heap of trouble in the future.
I disagree.
It is NOT "indiscriminate bashing" to say that the radical militant Islamic proponents and their sponsors are in fact our enemy.
These muslims have been quite clear, it deciding that we were their enemy and they have been attacking us at will for at least the past 8 years or more.
I believe it is long past time - for us to take their challenge and agressiveness seriously - and set about to destroy them where THEY live and flourish.
If there are muslims in the world that wish to join us in destroying the criminal murderous radicals within their Islamic community - they may do so, as Turkey, the Northern alliance in Afghanistan and as some in Pakistan and Indonesia have already done.
I'm sure you don't regard the murderous intent against a delared enemy to be "indiscrimaninate bashing" --- I think of it as SPECIFIC BASHING which needs to be devastating and kill the bastards by the 10s of thousands, or more...
