They kill Arab children left and right! The snipers actually practice with miniature targets. |
Sure things aren't very bright, sometimes not bright at all in those countries. Time will tell. It wasnt long ago when Soviet Union was under an iron curtain. Launching a full-scale war against Arab states, or fighting evil with evil is not going to make things better for those people. On the other hand, it will give those dictators an excuse to impose even harsh laws and pull whomever left into a long war.
Americans instead should use what worked before: media, western music, easy lifestyles, spread the word and story of happy democracy (not using military), etc. Arabs' hearts will melt when they see this and no American agression. Radicals will eventually weed out because they'll have noone to fight. Peace is possible.
Carpet bombing and invading those nations will NEVER, and I repeat NEVER EVER bring peace to the region. It will only cause more hatred, war, guerilla warfare. But thats what neo-cons want, to scare people into submission by creating an enemy to fight an endless war for profiteering.
