Kill 'em all and let (their) god sort it out afterwards!
We are no longer engaging in wars as we had over the past 200 years.
We are no longer defending ourselves against invading armies or assisting an allies in defending their boarders against invading forces.
We are now fighting against terrorist who "claim" they are fighting against any number of causes (which ever will get them the most press). They have no regrets about killing and maiming innocent people, claiming we (the US) have done so in their country, and yet it's THEY who use their own people as pawns, human sheilds and walking bombs, killing them to further their own cause and claim we did.
I listen to their rants and raves about whatever cause they are railing against, and all I hear is garbage. Rantings of a lost soul fighting a cause that they have no real knowlegde of, fighting for rewards that will only be received when they die (great plan, huh?) and complete disregard for any person or nation that doesn't acknowledge their way as the ONLY way, bow to their absurd demands for superiority (yeah, right) and allow them to do whatever the hell they please until they have to pay for their actions.
Our founding fathers are rolling over in their graves, probably ashamed of what we have let happen to ourselves.
As I told my brother last night, we have corrupted our society to the point where victims of crimes have no rights, and criminals and terrorists have all the rights. It used to be "innocent until proven guilty" but now the focus isn't about proven guilt as much as destroy the credibility of the victims. Lawyers are so eager to better their own sorry existence they will ruin an innocent persons' life for a victory, regardless of what is right or wrong.
When I see and hear the news nowadays, I turn it off because there truly is no good news these days.
Remember that no good deed goes unpunished, and there are plenty of people in this world ready to do it!
