In short, the Iraq "problem" is a hopeless case, if what you want is to make the pacify the place with force. On the other hand, Iraq will eventually pacify itself if all foreign influences are removed (just as they have pacified themselves so many times in their 5000 year history).
Yeah.. uh-huh.. we understand that you're the Isolationistic Appeaser of the thread Bilow..
You're the guy who likes to wait until he can no longer ignore the obvious danger, before actually deciding it's time to do something about it..
Why recognize a growing international cancer in the form of Islamo-Fascism, right?
Why worry about it just because they flew a few civilian airliners into heavily populated buildings??
Just p*ss on them all, them dirty, crazy, Arabs... Huddle ourselves behind our battlements, and turn our country into Fortress Amerika, right?
Gripe about the ounce of prevention, and prefer the eventual "pound of cure" later on, and hope that you've passed from this planet before the US is forced to fight another World War against this growing tyranny... After all, the next generation will have to fight it, not you (or your immediate posterity)..
Yes... choose "peace in our time" by leaving the Muslim world to fall beneath the tyrannical sandal of Islamo-Fascism...
Amazing.. I feel like I'm flashing back to the 1930's whenever I debate with you.. And while I'm not even worthy of standing in Churchill's shadow, I feel an empathy with his burden of trying to make fools like yourself understand the future potential cost of your isolationist terpitude.
And let me leave our audience (if we even have one left) with one more point.. Had it not been for the vested self-interest of Monarchial France, the United States would likely not exist in it's current form..
It wouldn't matter how many guns and bullets we possessed.
And most of the weapons in Iraq were owned by the ethnic segment which was responsible for oppressing the rest of the Iraqi society.
They way I look at it, we're aiding that segment of Iraqi society that just might be tempted to create a secularist, democratic government...
