Yep. The “root causes” are Islam, inbreeding, low IQ, and a crap culture. The only cure for it is to bomb the snot out of it.
Greenfield’s wrong.
Think of all the lives that could have been saved during World War II if only we had stated jobs programs for German and Japanese youth... rather than fighting them.
It boggles the mind.../s
"He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST - TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE . Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. The war is yet flagrant ... While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men."
Excellent students of history will wonder about the "1200 years" comment, since Islam began 1400 years ago. The trick is that this was written by our President... our 6th President... John Quincy Adams, in 1830.
Our problems with Islam are not new, and they are not about jobs.
Actually, there is a moment in every war where Harfs statement is true, the instant when the losing side realizes that they cannot or will not win.
In the aftermath of Little Bighorn, when the US cavalry brought down the thunder from the skies, the Indians realized that they could not kill their way out of the war with the United States.
When Berlin was surrounded, the Germans realized that they could not kill their way out of World War II.
After two atomic bombs, Japan realized it could not kill its way out of World War II.
After the first shot is fired and the enemy fights back, liberals and progressives in the vicinity of any war begin the cry that they cannot kill their way out of war, after which they begin a campaign to fulfill the prophecy of losers, undermining any strategy or person with the power and will to win.
“Think of all the lives that could have been saved during World War II if only we had stated jobs programs for German and Japanese youth... rather than fighting them.”
WWII was a jobs program - except the enemy themselves were arranging to come to take over our jobs. The only difference this time is that some intruder got into the white house and is from their coaxing us to invite them to take our jobs.
(It would sure help if we would populate the earth with Christians rather than insult God with birth control and abortion. Then the invaders wouldn’t be demographically overwhelming us and God might actually fight against them with us. But until then...)
Somewhere else on FR, I’m sure. Just spreading it as much as possible, because it deserves it. :)
IMHO, the other big reason this particular enemy isn't afraid of us is the ridiculous win-on-the-ground, surrender-by-the-Congress mess John Kerry and Teddy Kennedy made of the Vietnam war. If not for the bleeding hearts in DC hamstringing our military, we could have been in and out of there with a clear victory. But no.
Surely the islamists made careful note of that, followed by Jummah Cahtah's mess with the Ayatollah and not being able to summon the strength to get our men out of captivity.
It reminds me again with yearning for the simplicity and profundity of Reagan's foreign policy: "We win; they lose."
So you want U.S. troops to become Muslim?
