Schultz: We're In a 'Religious War,' Haven't Been 'Strong Enough,' Must Consider Ground Troops
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Holy schnikes: was that really Ed Schultz, or has the soul of Norman Schwarzkopf suddenly assumed control of the MSNBC host's body?

On his show this afternoon, Schultz—discussing the latest ISIS outrages—stunningly declared that we are in a "religious war" in which we haven't been "strong enough," and repeatedly raised the possibility that ground troops might be necessary.

As long as we would rather ignore the causes of the war and fail to identify the enemy, it will go on a lot longer than 100 years. When only one side considers it a war, there will be no resolution of the problem.

He waited long enough.

What other piece of wisdom will come flying out of his mouth?

I didn’t hear it mentioned what “religion” was involved. Does anyone know?

Ground troops are necessary - NOW. And every American who can handle a firearm had better buy some and the ammo to go with it, and learn how to use them - VERY WELL. That maniac in the White House and the fools who preceeded him, have allowed ISIS to set up training camps all over the country.

We shouldn’t send in any troops until we have pounded the entire area mercilessly with our air superiority. If there is collateral damage it’s something that we will have to accept as the terrible cost of war with an insane evil enemy.

No, we don’t need boots on the ground in the Middle East and Africa or any Islamic majority country. This is their mess.

Yes, I’m sorry some Christians are caught up in this, but it isn’t like they didn’t know what Muslims are like already. It’s mostly Muslims butchering other Muslims in these places. We should let them get on with it.

We need ground troops HERE in our own country.
We don’t need to be saving Muslims from other Muslims.

NONE of them are trustworthy and are not our allies.

Thanks to the traitor in the White House and the fools who preceededhim, we need them in BOTH places. They are being drawn like a magnet to ISIS, and by killing them THERE, we keep them out of HERE. In that respect, Bush was right.

As for HERE, get on the horn TODAY, call your congressman, TELL him or her a) you want OBAMA IMPEACHED, NOW, b) TELL him you DEMAND a STOP to ATF trying to block the sale of .223 ammo for AR15 rifles, buy one yourself, learn how to use it properly and be prepared to employ it. ISIS IS HERE. OBAMA LET THEM IN.

No, we keep them out of HERE but let them kill each other over THERE. Why do their work for them?

Plus, their fight is not ours. It’s not our business is if they are slaughtering each other over THERE.

We should focus on keeping them out of HERE.

They are threatening the entire world - like NAZIs. They are killing Jews and Christians like never before. A disease like this needs to be stamped out or it will spread.

See:

This needs to be exterminated, all of ISIS and anyone who supports this thing.

They are not threatening the whole world. They are killing mostly other Muslims. Jews have figured out how to protect themselves ... perhaps Christians in the Middle East need to follow the example of Israel and get themselves into a defensive position.

Jew and Christians in the West need to get Islam out of the West or very tightly contain and monitor them. But we don’t need to go over to their lands. Just keep them out of ours.

Now if Iran gets a nuke, then we can say they are threatening the whole world.
