Where did you come up with that simplistic ideology? Terrorism is evil and
violent. And while wisdom is a marvelous virtue, it (wisdom) without the
military wherewithal to make its voice heard is impotent. Nothing short of
military strength/action against the violence of terrorism will combat it.

Wisdom is born of experience. Your leader(s) and mine have shown exemplary
wisdom and strength in dealing with Islamic terrorists. It's time we the
people get behind them in support rather than babbling aimlessly with
pacifist platitudes and touchy-feely statements that have no value in truth.
