The way i read your comment was that they may be doing all sorts of bad stuff, but they're "also fighting against Western political/cultural" etc etc
To me, that reads as apologist not that their motives are complex.
Personally, I think their motives are simple and the solution is just as simple.
They want total control, they need to be eradicated like you'd exterminate a nest of wasps.

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I prefer Rambo to bwuce.
And I don't give a fat rats clacker if they're human beings. They're meat sacks with a malfunctioning central processor. I'd have the same amount of regret exterminating them as I would a wasps nest or rats. Zero.

Oh no no no no no brucey baby all the way! Ripped singlet, cut near the eye, hmmmmmmm
And actually I meant that religion is just an excuse for the thing they are really fighting for, be it power, oil, more space or to feel as if they have the bigger dick!

Again, mate, your "they" is not likely to be a neat collective of TV villains, and not likely to be able to be removed with any sort of precision. We've heard these stories and seen their aftermath often enough to be responsibly cautious, surely. You're reacting to literary types tenth hand.stui magpie wrote:^And I don't give a fat rats clacker if they're human beings. They're meat sacks with a malfunctioning central processor.

In the end the rain comes down, washes clean the streets of a blue sky town.

As much as there might be intelligent arguments for and against greater US military involvement, I have to say I'm a little relieved that the Obama administration doesn't see "nuke everybody" as an ideal solution.
