I'd stay out of it. Anger them enough and they'll be ready to come back and lay us out again, because in my opinion we shouldn't have even went over there. When the troops were sent over to Iraq, they took their concentration off of Afghanistan and the terrorist groups started getting stronger. That's the reason why they're sending marines to Afghanistan now.

The war is about these terrorist groups and nuclear weapons. Even if the weapon issue is concluded, this is something that can't be solved unless the terrorist are completely wiped out, but I don't see that happening.

Leave the area, let 'em attack again. Nuke 'em. Problem solved.

If it was that simple don't you think it would have been done by now? They don't want to risk another attack and they don't want to blow innocent people to oblivion.

place equal value on life and business ethics and laws..

if we start taking some of their claims seriously and start investigating corporate irresponsibility on pressing criminal charges it might solve some problems..

we would also need to stop supporting tyrannical governments just to get a decent price on oil or keep them from selling to others..

basically we get what we put in and we have ourselves caused their disdain toward us.

That would only work if all terrorists came from outside a country and if terrorism always took more than one week to pull off and if terrorists were highly respectful of the laws nations they intended to attack.
they usually do come from outside the country.

it all started with Jews. It'll end with Jews.

No no, violence was invented by Islam. Don't you know anything about history?

no one invented violence. its been around since the 1st day there was life on earth

This is a difficult question to answer. I've heard a few solutions.

1. Just get out of the middle east!! We're keeping the radicals united!
The problem with this is us being that it's not exactly accurate. While some factions ARE united, as a whole, the middle east fundamentalism is largely divided, and our presence is causing that division. If we leave, they will slowly unite against us and Israel. Our foreign policy has always been the ardent support of Israel, so we would not allow this.

2. Keep doing what we are doing.
This isn't working either. Rather, it's showing some progress but it's been 8-9 years, and thousands of our troops have died needlessly. If the mighty Soviets couldn't do anything in the Middle East in the 70s, what exactly are we going to accomplish? We're fighting in a land with thousands of miles of mountains and plenty of hiding spots. We're not going to find what we want.

The reason I don't really post my opinion, is because it can be considered quite radical even by conservatives, while "bloodlust" by the Liberals. I believe in the eye for an eye concept to an extent. They suicide bomb innocent civilians, we round up the captured prisoners and execute them. They blow up a building, we blow up one of their complexes. I don't believe in the "moral high ground" argument because sooner or later, there won't be anyone alive to take the "moral high ground". Anyways, that's just a run down version of what I think.

What were you agreeing with? Jews trying to overthrow the Romans, Christians trying to overthrow the Romans, or...Islam?

I'm Jewish with an extended knowledge of my people, and I've been to Masada. It's called "The Last Stand" for a reason, so when you say to an extent, you're REALLY reaching.
