They don't hate us for our Freedom, they hate us because we are in their sand box. What if America was occupied by another nation that wanted to change our way of life ? ( actually, we may already be ) Would people sit back and let them have their way with us ?Would their be a faction of insurgents to rise up and fight on a spot by spot basis, of course there would.

I'm not saying that pulling out is our only solution but if we are going to "stay the course" then we need to increase the number of troops and "protective gear" to an overwhelming degree and get this thing done. I am not sure if there is a point in this mess when you could call it "done".

Annihilation itself is no death to evil. Only good where evil was, is evil dead. An evil thing must live with its evil until it chooses to be good. That alone is the slaying of evil.
