It looks to me as if your whole hope for the future is in belaying some future escalation of the conflict in hopes that moderate muslims will come to your rescue. How different from that characterization is the real sentiments you wish to express?

If that is close to what you believe, what will you do if it fails?

"It looks to me as if your whole hope for the future is in belaying some future escalation of the conflict in hopes that moderate Muslims will come to your rescue."

My position is simple, the one you've chosen to disregard, and misrepresent at every opportunity, while thumping your chest at the sacrifice that "your people" gifted me with, as if "my people" had not suffered a million deaths to gain freedom, so quickly stolen from them...we need to identify the enemy, keep them separate from the non-enemies, and work to eradicate the enemy. The enemy being defined as extremism, and confined to the actual perpetrators of that extremism. We do not need to paint all Muslims with one broad stroke of a brush, and fault them with the actions of a minority.

Having said that, I have no desire to converse witn you any further, I find your posts offensive in their position of my being somehow less an American, because I got here after your immigrant forebears did.
