I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this "Islamist" issue. Yep, I'm sure there are a fair number of peaceful Islam practitioners but I feel from an historical perspective that we have been on a collision course with them for about 1300 years or so and history is littered with the evidence. For me this is simply another phase in a millineum plus old struggle. I regret their innocents and ours caught up in this but so be it. Better theirs than ours. Nearly all their rulers are despots and most of their mullahs are openly hostile to Judeo-Christianity and have been for the most part since that religion was first founded by the sword by a man who married a 9 year old while we're on children for the moment.

I hope some of the less vitriolic and secular Islamic nation entities will see the error in their ways but the militants will always be with us to varying degrees. Meanwhile, our mostly apostate Christian churches handwring about being "nice" as if that's all that matters anymore.

You are correct that FR is not suffering from a lack of resolve against the Islamist terrs but our country and some of our leaders and nearly all our "allies" are. That is what I regret.

Now, you already knew but have instant proof that I'm anything but non-judgmental. And I almost loathe the self derived morality crowd and the hard drug legalizers as much as you.

Regards....you can ping me for in the morning but I am not going to flame with you over this war issue. I will respect your right to disagree and hold you in no less regard.
