Im pretty much on board with your way of thinking however im not sure this particular point is realistic.

Its impossible to hit just "them" with nuclear weapons. Terrorism works due to the fact that terrorist embed themselves in normal society. I agree nuclear means would work but you would kill many "innocent" people as well. We are a diplomatic country concerned with the rest of the way the world views us, and what would they think if we did such a thing?

In this particular case im with you becuse it would work. We should make the statement "take care of your problems that affect us becuase if we have do do it for you you wont like how it ends". Pretty soon middle east civilians would fight back against terrorist becuase if they dont they know theyll be wiped of the face of the earth by us.

To bad this will never happen...

 

Thanks. Im just glad that these forums arent filled with ignorant kids unable to comprehend the big picture. Most the points stated here are at least educated/informed.

 

Dear 240m3srt, That was indeed a rant, but that was really a great rant! Obviously I'm not the only one that gets livid when I hear that America Hating bullshit. I remember those self rightious little ****** back in the sixties flying the enemie's flag, wearing those Che Guavarro shirts, and spoutin' all that communist crapola. I Think people in this country should have the right to burn the American Flag and I think the bystanders should have the right beat the livin' **** out of them for doing it. My dad fought in the Pacific theatre. He and his buddies were plenty pleased that Harry dropped the big one. Rest assured they would have dropped it on us.
