Thoughts on the War

If I had to reduce the War on Islamic Terror, and the value of this war, to its essentials, and I could say it to the enemy, it would be this:

"No culture can be allowed to survive that treats women the way it does. We simply cannot tolerate the existence of any culture that enslaves people. Its own people, at that, based on gender. The fact that you will slaughter people to maintain this evil privilege cannot stand."

That's a violation of minimized qualification for the word "civilized" number One.

Minimized qualification for the use of the word "civilized" number Two is: We cannot permit you to kill people on religious grounds. This isn't a polite society issue - it is a matter of world survival. You are killing (and genociding) all over the world, and you must be stopped. Mankind simply cannot progress with you in charge, and so you therefore become a deadly diversion. If you fight on, you will simply fight until you are extinct as a cause, another historical footnote at best.

Your violence doesn't make you religious. Your kind of sacrifice doesn't put you in heaven. I do not know Mohammed, but I do know you don't represent him.
