so are you both saying it is right that these Muslims living here in England, can go around kidnapping Soldiers and Cutting their throats. and that is OK or have I missed the point.
No, no, chrisy, I don't think that is what is being said at all. I really think getting down and giving the Islamic terrorist a dose of what they give the people they kidnap is what the message is.
The Islamic terrorists are past the point of any kind of conscience. I read a book once, I don't remember, it might have been a Robert Ludlum book, or a Clancy book. Anyway, an operative was working to get out some people kidnapped by Islamic extremists. He was partnered with someone from the same country. I remember the operative being horrified at what the partner did, which was kidnap the extremists family and procede to torture and mutilate them and send pieces of them to the extremists. It worked and the kidnap victims were released. The partner then killed the family member, sending a message to the extremists that further kidnappings would result in the same thing happening to other family members.
It sounds horrible, yes, but with terrorist zealots, something has to be done to make them realize that they cannot continue to do such horrific things, such as beheadings and mutilation, to get what they want. There is no negotiating with these zealots. They have no regard for human life.
Would this actually play out and work? I don't know, because I cannot think like a zealot. I just wonder if these zealots can feel compassion, even toward their own family members. I can, however, see how it might be worth a try.
I also think the big guns need to be turned toward Afghanistan...
that's where they should have been turned in the first place. The mountains in Afghanistan should be leveled...I mean nothing left standing there...and it should be done with no warning whatsoever. Bin Laden is somewhere in those mountains and needs to be buried in them.
