"The pervasive ignorance in this country, of what is significant in the Muslim world, is going to cost many lives."

Tolerance & understanding is a two way street.

Much of what is posted on this thread is far too frequently
like that statement of yours. One sided & Anti-American.

Their ignorance of us, much of it false & misleading, is
fed to them by their governments & their religious leaders.
If they bring death & destruction to innocent civilians
with terrorist atrocities, it will be at their severe
peril. There is absolutely no excuse for either types of
behavoir. And the former in no way justifies the latter. I
will support their demise if they choose terrorism over
understanding & tolerance.

We are a peaceful nation. However, evil cannot be allowed
to thumb its' nose at us & threaten our security. The
Butcher of Baghdad did just that. Diplomacy, peace &
tolerance utterly failed after 12 long years.

If certain extremists choose to use this action to attack
US interests or its' citizens, it will be their mistake.

They should choose peace & tolerance first, just like the
US did with the Butcher of Baghdad. They will find that we
can be very understanding & tolerant in a civil dispute.
