What you are not addressing is that the "Islamo-Facists" want primarily to run their own neck of the woods without us butting in. If we stay out, we have no problem. I would hardly move their myself, but then its none of my business what sort of Gov. they decide to impose on themselves.
Neo.. you should read some more about Islamo-Fascism. They may be setting their short to intermediate term goals towards ruling the Mid-East, but their long-term goal is to restore the Caliphate and restore the past glory of the historical Islamic Empire.
And this makes sense. Because, quite simply, their antiquated political and economic views require two things in order to sustain its momentum. Access to wealth (oil) and a ideological vision that justifies its non-democratic governmental style (Jihad).
With oil, they will have the wealth necessary to fuel their political/religious aspirations of waging Jihad against the Infidels (you and I).
In fact, they NEED this imperialistic vision of conquest since Islamo-Fascism mandates that the infidels be destroyed whereever they are found.
In this vision, they are quite comparable to the Nazis, who rose to power on the goal of exterminating all Jews and non-Aryan peoples.
So it's a just a bit more than "mind your own business" with regard to their view of the US. They know they are weak, so they only means they have to further their power is to use fear and violence to intimidate others who might have the power to oppose them.
But beyond this... we must ask ourselves why they have more right to inflict their totalitarian and intolerant worldview upon the people of the Mid-East while we're not entitled to advance the concept of democratic and accountable governments??
They have the will, and the patience, to pursue their values. So why don't we?
Is it going to require another, even more catastrophic, attack than 9/11 before we wake up to this reality?
