Comments: Muslims are waging war
I consider the Napoleonic Wars the first world war. That makes WWI into WW2, and WW2 into WW3. Then the Cold War was WW4, and now we're in WW5: the war against terror. Just because everyone wants to forget it and the president pretends its over doesn't mean it went away.

The world never stopped being at war, some are just larger than others.
we happen to currently enjoy an interregnum to sharpen our knives.

Muslims vs Everybody who is not an insane lunatic, i.e. all non Muslims, is a war that began when the original dirty old man fought his first battle around the beginning of the 7th Century. It is the original World War. All the later ones are pale imitations of this one.

While all is being said, not much is being done.
To address a scourge such as Islam we must think in terms of extermination.
Think: Dresden;
Think: Hiroshima and Nagasaki;
Collateral damage? Every time some unfortunate guy gets beheaded and the video goes viral?
Really, collateral damage? You're worried some kids or old people are gonna get killed?
When they kill one of ours, we kill one hundred of theirs.
It has been seen and experienced in most every other country in the world, from the "super-powers" to the Third World yocky-dock countries: Islam is not a good thing.
It benefits nobody, apparently not even the adherents.
We are all listening to rumors that something bad is gonna happen on 9-11.
Instead of cowering and hoping that it won't happen near us we should be fire-bombing Baghdad and other concentrations of Muslim terrorists. Can't find 'em?
Enlarge the target area.

Before extermination, can we please try the humane plan of deportation and exhile? There ways are not our ways. They need not be here. They add nothing of value. And, they provide cover for those among them that want us dead. Deport Sharia and if that doesn't work, nuke Islam.

@tscott — I appreciate your desire for humanitarian solutions. I have trouble reconciling my attitude about killers and plague carriers with my Christian beliefs. The only way I do it is by considering them as Evil. Minions of Satan out and about doing the dirty work. They have run out of "one more chances". Draw a parallel to the Ebola plague. Contain, isolate, eradicate. Extend the circle outward to sever the tendrils and repeat.
The justification, rationalization call it whatever, is defend the host, kill the cancer. It comes down to lifeboat morality: it's either them or us, no compromise, no surrender.

Obama has solved the "no (American) boots on the ground" in the ISIS ruckus -- he'll order our military in wearing sandals or barefoot!
And our military going into Ebola-ridden Africa? That's so, for our guys who don't mutiny, we'll have 1000's of loyal Americans coming back home with Ebola or its deadly, contagious variants.
Western medics have already been attacked and their clinics wrecked for imposing their expertise among communities with Ebola outbreaks and superstitions about Western medical techniques.
In the Stupidity Olympics our government is way ahead in Fool's Gold medals.
