I have never said "leave him alone"

all I am saying is...

We need to be smarter about how we go about it...

exposing us more than what we need is idotic.

let me put a thought in your mind...

Let's take for example the invasion of Normandy...

AT the top.. we had a bunch generals that at best were ego-maniacs... AND they knew they were NOT going to be in any of the hamburger hills that were about to take place....

So... they plan "D" day ... now... I have to say that battle was really stupidly planned that cost the allieds hundreds of men... I cannot comprehend why.... (unless my knowledge of WW II is defective)... but why couldn't we prior to the invasion.. simply didn't bomb the absolute shit of the German bunkers... I mean we knew they were there and they were sitting ducks.... why not ... why send thousands of troops to walk in front of the machine guns.... ? I mean come on.... Are we going to do the same... again ?

Bomb them of course... just find out where the weapons are and do it...

By no means I am saying don't do anything about it...

Besides.... there is another threat and that is the economic war that China, which is getting ready for... We can't afford to lose that one...
