Here we see the strategy of the Islamists around the world laid bare. They have the will to fight, endlessly if necessay, to take power in order to lord it over other people and institute their theocratic tyranny. What use is the power of the USA or of other civilized countries if we do not have the will to fight and kill those who would destroy us? If we do not want the above phrases to become the epitaph of Western Cviilization and liberty, we had better get off our asses and hunt down the jihadis everywhere. And we had better stick it out in Iraq and stomp out the jihadis there to start with.

I think it was Robert Heinlein who said “Those who would beat their swords into ploughshares will plough for those who do not.” That is if they don’t kill you to steal your wealth before you can surrender.
