Also, the idea that if we don't do whatever we will be wearing burkhas is very tired.

Yes.

It's stupid to think about global geopolitics and demographic reality. If we don't think about militant Islam, it will go away. All together the Islamic countries have no Navy to speak of. They have no long distance capable submarines. They have no long range bombers. They have no ICBMs. They have weak armies which we have defeated in days, not weeks, repeatedly. They have a demonstrated inability to organzie themselves in many realms, business, religion and yes, military.

Moslems are a small minority in the USA, and since 9/11 their immigration has been greatly slowed.

In retrospect the Soviets were a hollow threat. They never were as formidable as some of the hawks claimed, but they were none the less a world-spanning, first world superpower with all of the military attributes that the Moslem states lack.

Despite this we defeated them handily.

9/11 may well prove to be the highwater mark of their exploits. In the nearly six years since then they have failed to do anything that equals it. In fact, even on 9/11 a full quarter of their plot was defeated by a plane full of ordinary Americans armed with cell phones.

After 50 years Israel still exists, and they are surrounded by these idiots.

Toss around smart-sounding phrases like "global-geopolitics" all you want, but I just don't see the second coming of Ghengis Khan in the unwashed, semi-litterate, Moslem horde.

Underestimating your enemies is best gift they could hope for.

The Imperial Japanese Navy depended on the Czar to do just that.

Islam is not genetic.

Only because we never treated them as such.

If you take small problems seriously they never become big problems.

And that, you believe, is purely luck. Fascinating world you dwell in.

And how did Israel manage this feat? By being aggressive and interventionist.

You don't need a bath or a spelling bee medal to operate an AK-47 or drive a tanker truck full of chlorine.
