Chop, what do you think my stance is? And what's yours? Is it Bombing ALL Muslims so we eliminate the few bad ones? And the innocent ones that are bombed, oh well, too bad?
Your stance is very well intentioned but misplaced. I don't think you are a bad person for not wanting innocent Muslims killed.
Its kinda like this:
Lets say there is a hijacked passenger plane with 300 innocent people aboard.
Intelligence finds out that the plane is armed with explosives and is headed to a football stadium with 80,000 other innocent people with intentions of strategically landing and blowing up all 80,000 people at the game.
Intelligence finds out in time to send some fighter jets to the hijacked plane in enough time to take away the threat to the 80,000 at the football game.
Yes unfortunately there are about 300 innocent people on that plane. But what needs to be done is pretty apparent .
Yes some things in life are not fair but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
If you were the commander in chief and you held your philosophy that you spew on this forum basically you would be telling the fighter jets to hold fire and let the plane kill 80,000 people because there are 300 innocent people on that plane that don't deserve to die.
Its just a few extreme idiots that hijacked that plane. The other 297 people are all good .
So let's let that plane kill those 80000 people .
This is pretty much your beliefs regardless if you want to admit it or not.
And it's pretty shortsighted with a lack of seeing the big picture.
