I'd be glad to get the hell out of those cesspools they call countries and let them all kill each other.

Yeah, why are we there? They aren't going to change their ways? Get out and then if they stir up trouble, go in and drop some bombs. The bad things is that millions of women and children have to suffer under that kind of brutality.

A terrible idea, or a good one? Bit of a gamble. I presume it is their attitudes which compel their behaviour, in which case it is their attitudes that need to be addressed; there is an inherent intolerance in the belief system that insists upon itself as being the only right path. Taken to an extreme, as it is in the case of fundamentalism, this naturally results in madness. Imo the idea that it might be possible to wear them down direly underestimates the zeal with which such beliefs are held.

In their world/ country/ government/ religion, dissent is not allowed and often comes with the harshest of penalties. Protest, outrage, violence against perceived disrespect of their religion is freely tolerated and in some instances encouraged. Displacement of discontent.

Message deleted by mmhmm. Ameiko, I'm removing this post and one following post of yours. It is against the ProBoards ToS to promote hate against any group. You're welcome to disagree with what others might think, or believe; however, you are not free to foster hatred.

However, if your choice of what to say, print, or film gets you in a bind, it's not the government's job to get you out of it. You made a choice. The consequences are yours, too. That's the conservative way, is it not?
Not when the consequences are forced upon you by someone else. If you don't want to work, well you can starve. If you don't want to buy medical insurance, you don't get that operation.
However, if someone attacks you, that is a crime and it is the job of society to protect its people and their basic human rights.
That's not conservative or liberal, that's just being civilized.

"... No, we have a Muslim problem..." Agreed. Although, in all fairness, we also seem to have another problem on our hands, with respect to some of our nicest, best-intentioned fellow citizens... God love 'em...

Yes indeedy. Fundamenalist nutters are so nutty.... that if they have to destroy the world to make a point.... they don't really mind. Its only a tiny fraction of people who are doing this anyway........They were protesting against the protesters yesterday in Benghazi, shouting "No More Al Qaeda" There is a quite a bit of hijacking for political gain at play here....and others are just in it for the ruck. As for islamists...Give them no quarter at all. Welcome to the free world...We'll say what we like, when we please... so they had better start getting used to it and stop behaving like children. ...and Pakistan has proved itself untrustworthy... despite the billions poured into that country. Its bad for the region, bad for the citizens living in the West.... and bad for their economy if we withdraw support and leave them to it. but..hey.

However, if someone attacks you, that is a crime and it is the job of society to protect its people and their basic human rights. As I said- unless it is a SPECIFIC THREAT society owes jack shit to someone who has nothing better to do than piss off people just because they can. I don't get the extremist Muslims (anymore than I get the extremists from the other religions)- on the most basic level 'God' can handle his/her/its own issues and will deal with people that offend him/her/it or him/her/its 'prophets'- he/she/it doesn't need lowly humans looking out him/her/it. Eternal hell isn't bad enough in their mythology that they feel a beheading is in order- come on- let the person live a measly 70 years or so- not much considering the eternity after right?

Reason, you are SO right. The footing French always get someone else to bail them out. This time, let them suffer the consequences. What do you have against the French...footing? How so..? Methinks you have heard some sound bytes over the years against them and rather then really investigate and educate your self you just find it easier to just repeat the sound bytes.. With out the French we would still be a common wealth country at best..possible still a colony of the UK. Bail out ? Are you referring to the second WW...The ones we really bailed out , for our own salvation really, was Britain..and we didn't get involved full time till Pearl Harbor and then Germany declaring war on us...a mistake , one of many the Fuhrer made thank the lord, not really necessary.. Once some one declares war on some one are you suggesting that country do nothing or just capitulate? "Suffer the consequences..."?? Really wonder why your so big into this..? Did they, French, do something to you negatively , to yours personally to wish such misfortune on them...

Frankly, those women, who are treated worse than dogs, would be better off dead than living in a country that think so poorly of them. Plus, I'm sorry, but they are raising future killers. I have no issue with cutting off the system that keeps having future killers. You hurt one of our people, boom, a city is gone, just like that, in smoke and ashes. Do it again, same thing but to another city. You don't have to nuke them, just bomb them into another level of thinking. They may grumble but they will stop killing or be dead and then the killing stops anyway.

Send a dart to that dartboard and go for it. Geneva convention is just for wimpy countries, like us. The only thing a rabid animal understands is brute force.

You want to know what fosters the development of future killers ??

there are people with principles, and people without them.
the notion that somehow it is OK to side with those without them is utterly insane.
