Your tax dollars helped paying for the military. remember that. You are murder too? Let's not go there. Enough anti military threads in this forum and all over the internet. you are nothing original. I heard it all.

Remember, many americans are now supporting sending boots to fight isis. LOL haha. yeah.. When they come back, they would be condemned again, by the same folks. You can't teach old dogs new tricks.
It's all a matter of process and procedure.

You should not think of yourself as the Commander's daughter.

Perhaps if they had a real CIC and not the feckless resident of the White House, there would be no reason to send our soldiers to fight ISIS.

If the soldier was a Vietnam vet, I would agree that being forced to fight a war by draft is wrong, but again, these brave soldiers are volunteering to fight, and NOTHING they do on behalf of this nation is "for no good reason."
This post is just more mumbling of excuses and worn out empty praise of American troops without looking at or understanding the entire picture.
Our military is not defending anyones freedoms in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Afghanistan. Babbling on and on about the evils of Islam is a meaningless defense of americas offensive and unlawful military actions.

Whatever you say. I am going to move on from this subject. You can find somebody else to debate with.

Right now it is not working.

Only 15% of Germans were Nazis and they killed millions.
At least 25% and probably a lot more are radical Islamic terrorist types. That number is over 300 million and we can't risk having ANY of them here IMO.

Put a wall up and bullet proof the vetting and I would love USA Constitution loving Muslims that would not want Sharia here any time.

Isn't what I am saying totally fair?

That is not the case here.

I would identify the Radicals and their supporters by:

1) The people who are or support Violent Jihadist.
2) The ones that belong to Mosques or listen to Iman's that Demonize Jews and Christians or other religions.
3) Any that support Female Genital Mutilation.
4) the ones that want Sharia law.
That is anyone who thinks the Quran is the word of God.

Yes, nominal Muslims who don't really practise the Quran are not problem precisely because they are bad Muslims.

Some of our Founding Fathers read the Quran and even they knew those that followed it were big trouble.

The Quran is viewed as the words of the Prophet as dictated to scribes over time. The thousands of Hadiths written after Muhammeds death are words attributed to the Prophet by others. Islamic scholars have challenged the legitimacy and authenticity of some or all Hadiths all along. Some believe the Hadiths and interpretations have hijacked Islam.

The gospels are words attributed to Jesus by others. Translations, interpretations differ amongst denominations and sects within denominations and have been influenced by regional politicians. Some gospels are mainstream while others are not. Interpretations continuously evolve within Christianity as new denominations and sects are formed. Not too different than Islam or any other major religion.

Muhammed viewed the gospels as corrupt documents that replaced the original gospel with false and oftentimes politically influenced information.

I obviously have an arm chair interest in religion and tend to focus on the context of the times and evolution of religions over time.
