what do we do after we have withdrawn from the treaties and agreements that bind us? first, define our goals. if there are 1.3 billion muslims in the world and only a small percentage of them are willing to strap on bombs and kill us, that leaves many millions of terrorists willing to die for the cause. we can not kill them all.
goal 1: do as the israelis did after munich. train small teams to gather intel and even smaller teams to assassinate muslim mullahs and leaders who preach and teach that terrorism is good. wherever we find them, kill them. let them know that their lives are in our hands. will we make martyrs of them? sure. so what? if our laws prevent us from killing them in the us, deport them and kill them where they land. we must stop this rot where it starts.
goal 2: break out the MOABs. wherever there is a village, cave, or country that harbors or helps terrorists, make the price in lives so high that it will not be worth it to them. innocents will die, but eventually people will realize that we will keep killing until they stop helping radical islam. make it clear to the people that the choice is theirs. our side or the terrorists.
iran and syria: Syria can be dealt with as we dealt with Pakistan. make it clear to them that it's our friendship or our bombs. while syria has many radicals, it also has a more practical government. they would rather make concessions to the US, than have the country taken over by radical islam. we can help them with that.
iran is a different animal. they fund terrorism. they fund the fight in iraq. they fund groups like hezbollah. i have heard military leaders say that there is no military solution to iran. to some extent, that may be true. we can not put 100's of thousands of boots on the ground. we do have the assets in the area to bomb the living crap out of them. a massive bombing campaign that never let them get off the ground, would certainly be a good start. no targets off the table. primary targets would be military and political. after that, pilots choice. this must be done before they have working nukes. if we have learned nothing else from the n korea mess, we should learn this.
we are at war. we are not winning. at best, we have kept some jihadists busy in iraq and afghanistan. that's not enough. without warning and without mercy, we must take the fight to the enemy and bleed them dry. we have nothing to lose at this point.
