We are Americans and we don't stoop as low as the Jihadists training children to espouse killing as a profession. I don't know what "America" you grew up in, but my America is full of hunters and fishermen who kill for sport and self-sustainment. And our young adults, both those who were previously drafted into, and those who volunteer to serve in, the military are trained to kill our enemies with efficiency and ruthlessness in the of self-preservation and the protection of our nation as authorized by the Congress and Commander in Chief. Your "Utopia" doesn't exist.. Never has and never will (unfortunately). I would love a world where young men do not have to be trained to kill their fellow man. Just as I would love a world where religious tolerance is upheld as an inalienable right of humanity. Until such a day arrives we have little recourse but to deal with our enemies on the same level as they would deal with us. We cannot fight with one (or both) hands tied behind our backs. It's the only "language" they understand. Welcome to the world. Welcome to reality. If you don't like it, create your own. Hawk
