I don’t think it’s possible to trap you. I’m not even sure I know what you
mean.

the existence of Islam will continue to spawn out groups hostile
to our security.
|
It’s already true.
|
Seriously?
| |
| |
I am asking how high the death toll can go before you
think that maybe the solution is worse than the problem.
|
your little hypothetical is stupid.
|
I appreciate the compliment.
| |
| |
I want to know if John believes that the elimination of Islam, if
that were required, would be justified.
|
Okay, Chris, here’s your answer: UNEQUIVOCABLY NO, NEVER, NOT IN A MILLION
YEARS, N-O SPELLS “NO”, NO
|
OK, now here’s what I don’t get. Before you said it was beneath you to answer.
What gives?
| |
| |
John, please don’t respond to this part...I fear dilution of the point.
|
Oops. Sorry.
|
Somehow I doubt it.
| |
| |
Given my hypothetical, I absolutely think that the murder of millions and
millions of innocents is worth our security.
|
Killing yes. Murder no.
|
Ah, so if I’d just changed the word murder to killing, you could get behind it.
And this brings us to another thing I don’t get. I think you said yes and no to
the same question in different places. Maybe I’m too “idotic” to figure out the
wisdom of John. Or maybe it’s something else. But either way, I’m confused.
| |
If we hadn’t acted in Afganistan and in Iraq, do you think that OBL would
have waited 3+ years to attack us again? I believe he hasn’t because he
can’t, not for lack of wanting.
|
I agree with your “I believe” part, but I don’t see what it has to do with Iraq.
Much of what we did in Afganistan seems to have been proper.
| |
Our military is doing its job--
defending you and me and our way of life.
|
Funny, I don’t feel any more safe.
I thought they were projecting our economic might into a region that expressly
doesn’t want our influence and had the wherewithal to resist our temptations.
That is something we simply cannot abide.
Chris
