In a perfect world the UN would do it’s job or even average arabs would confront Islam. Hell it would be nice if private militas confronted terrorists and we never had to pay a dime or get involved at all!

We either confront it sooner and farther from home or we confront it right here in our own streets later.

I just don’t see many other scenarios.

Frankly...we’re doing both already...the first WTC attack...then 9-11...but we’ve had several close calls also.

Unfortuantely we’ll also be needing oil until we come up with an alternative.

Or at least convince enough people to drill in ANWR etc.

In a perfect world the UN wouldn't exist. Iraq had an evil dictator but it was a fairly secular nation. Christians were allowed to practice their religion. They have since fled Iraq in droves from what I have read.
