Meanwhile those of us who are still sane realize that the radical Muslims are not going to refrain from chopping your head off just because you want to hold hands and sing kumbaya with them.
There has never been any instance in the history of the world when a strategy of appeasement worked. And yet leftists continue to pursue that strategy.
You go ahead and place your faith in chanting "can't we all be friends." I will place my faith in the U.S. Army. We'll see who lives longer.

I agree with you for the most part, but deposing Saddam Hussein and denying any former members of the Baath Party from the new government was a big mistake. Trying to bring democracy to that region also turned out to be a mistake. They are just not ready for it. Every time we go over there and intervene in something, we create more problems. That's not to say I don't see the huge threat that ISIS could turn out to be. We can't let ISIS be in control of a major oil-producing nation like Iraq. Thankfully the Sunnis and Shiites hate each other more than they hate the United States, so I don't know that their dreams of a caliphate can ever be realized.
I'd rather see our military protect this country than try to build a country for these idiots.
