I never said nuke Mecca. There was that Senator who said that we should threaten to nuke Mecca, if any of our cities were nuked by a Muslim terrorist. That seemed like a good idea to me, because there is nothing that these Muslims seem to care about. They don't care about their own lives and they don't care about the lives of children or innocents. So how do you find something that they care about to produce a kind of leverage that acts as a deterrent? Well, religion is the only thing they care about. So this senator said that we should threaten to nuke Mecca as a deterrent capability and I said it was worth considering.

That is a far cry from Muslim terrorists who would nuke one of our cities just for the hell of it. Shoot, you don't even have to go looking for the terrorists anymore. They are so emboldened by the pacifists in the West, nowadays they openly display their terrorist ways. Check out the President of Iran. He is now openly calling for the absolute destruction of Israel, but our pacifists are still thinking Iran is a peaceful country not interested in acquiring nukes. How stupid is that?

Frankly, you are as much a radical as their radicals. You are part of the problem... the moderates on both sides are the solution.

Remind us again, what was your solution to 20 more years of Saddam terrorizing Iraq followed by 20-30 years of Uday?

This is the interesting (and seldom talked about) part, when you guys stop complaining about what has happened and advocate your own solutions to the world's problems.
