I was
not saying we should turn the other cheek. I was quoting (I think) Christ. I am
still trying to reconcile the issues for me. Since that is my problem I will try
to leave it off the list.

The
problem in Afghanistan reminds me of what we did after WW I. We left Germany in
such a state that we planted the seeds for the WW II Germany to arise. We were
wiser after WW II and actually helped Germany and Japan to recover but with free
democratic countries.

It
seems that what needs to be done is to establish control over Afghanistan and
help rebuild it into a free democratic country so that they can join the rest of
the free world. This is, of course, a threat to all countries that rule by force
of arms. An impoverished country is the soil from which this sort of terrorism
arises.

I do
not think we should strike them hard blindly as I do not believe the people are
at fault. I think the target is the government, the military, and the
terrorists. My personal belief is taking over the country until a free
democratic government can be established.

never said you were asinine, or naive. I said you're ideas were naive
and asinine and sounded like something a college student would say. They
just killed over five thousand people (or more we don't know yet), they just
destroyed even many more lives, they just cost us multi billions of dollars,
and on top of that we haven't been able to trade (a bit of humor in all this)
and you were saying to just turn the other cheek? Come on man! But
you are now making a lot more sense, as you are talking about some type of
military action. We should strike them so hard that even our allies will
be shocked. This is the only thing they understand.

live in an imperfect world. I think we need to give this deeper thought.
Perhaps we need to take military action but I wonder in what manner. Perhaps
this might involve a coalition with the Northern group in Afghanistan and take
control of the country and establish a democratic government with NATO
occupation. Then move on to other countries one by one. This would all have to
be done with the support of the moderate Muslims and the rest of the
world.
