Thank you Greenie. I would have said that, if I'd thought of it. The other thing is, if they want to root out fundamentalist fascistic religiousity with aerial bombs and artillery, there is going to be no end to it, ever. Following that route can only end when one side or the other ceases to exist, because every bomb creates more militants. They'd have to follow the prescriptions, first of Hiroshima, and next of Hitler and Pol Pot. And that would be the end of the world. No more Beethoven, no Beatles, no walks on the beach with your kid, just horror, and more unceasing horror. Cause we'd all be in that one, every last human on this poor planet. And not much of it would be left. People need to try to calm the fuck down. The Amazon is entering its second year of drought. The Siberian peat bogs are melting. If this continues for another year or two, global warming will go into hyperspeed. And that's just for starters. We're looking at three huge problems--a catastrophic climate change, a world economy on the verge of collapse, and vast shortages of both energy and water, which will inevitably spark more localised conflicts. The adults of the world need to focus on those problems, together, not on a competing view of whose God is more righteous, ruthless, and indefatigable.
