In order to fulfill the "same strategic vision" I'd stop being a meddlesome fool, stop attempting to "remake" the world in my image or the image of my god, and I'd sure as hell stop sending my sons and daughters to kill and be killed in the process.

Oh.. what a beautiful solution CD... We shouldn't "remake the world in our image", but it's alright when the Islamic militants of the world attempt to do so...

Just stop being involved.. I bet that's why you live in a canyon rather than a neighborhood, right? Because you chose isolation rather than permitting yourself to be "bothered" with actually having to become involved in keeping gangs out of your neighborhood..

I can see your credo now:

'All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing’

After that I'd try to recreate the kind of nation that the world once looked to as a shining example of what was right in the world and what they wanted to strive for.

And when might that have been? Maybe under "Jim Crow", or before women's suffrage? Maybe before Roe v. Wade?

Before Social Security and Welfare?

Or do you want to go back all the way to when black people were counted as 3/5 a person for purposes of proportional representation (but not allowed to vote)?

I bet you really believe those were the good 'ol days, don't ya?
