My entire point was that we have a culture in the middle east that is turning mere children into weapons of war. Training them from a very young age to aspire to be Jihadists and find glory in dying for Allah.

I keep remembering a story that ran in the Chicago Tribune in late 2000 or early 2001, about a Palestinian-American woman who had moved with her family back to Ramallah during the Oslo years in hopes of building a business. One day, her eight-year-old son came home from school and announced, "Mom, when I grow up I want to be a shaheed (martyr)." She said, that's it, we're moving back to America.

I'm sure she is very glad now that she made that decision.

Maybe one day Jacob will take the same interest in the atrocities the Viet Cong and NVA inflicted on various "non-cooperative" Vietnamese.

And how about the atrocities they committed against American GIs.
And how about the atrocities committed by the terrorists everywhere.

The demos are on a search for the guilty so they can punish the innocent.
