re: Only 17 out of more than 4000 Japanese soldiers survived Tarawa. They would not surrender. Eventually Japan stopped fighting faced with annihilation. Only a complete idiot would compare WWII with the "war" on terrorism. WWII was a war between states... the "war" on terrorism is a police action against political vandals. Who the hell is it you want to surrender? Palestine!?! You want 50 worldwide Al Qaeda cells to simultaneously call Bush and say "we give up, Oh Christian One"? What's your end game, except "killing the cockroaches"? Did you ever note that bombs are not the best way to kill cockroaches (colateral damage, kill 10 cockroaches, destroy everything for a mile around)? re: The terrorists or Islamic extremists do not want peace. They want the destruction of America. Bull sh-t, they want to be left alone, self-determination, in their own corner of the world. re: We can do it now or we can do it later. What, destroy Islam? Kill all Al Qaeda? Draw me a picture of what victory looks like, and tell me how we get there... especially from the hell that is here and now. We've made a mess of the ME... there is no telling where that is going to lead. The best efforts of generations of careful and cautious diplomacy has been laid to waste... and the world has been made into a very dangerous place, from both a political and economic perspective. Americas fine reputation in the world has been completely destroyed, and you and Rush and your ilk take pride. John
