#1 Pretty well sums it up. Please add in some behind the scenes Iranian and Russian action as well. The usual suspects of course.

#2 The alternative to fighting the jihadis as is done currently is to kill them, and take the land and women. Like old times.

#3 to kill them, and take the land and women. Like old times

YOU take the women...I sure don't want them! Well, except for that Lebanese....

#4 The answer involves the "G" word. Reduce, concentrate and quarantine.

#5 i wont sign off on a genocide, but the culture must die along with the ideology that feeds it.

#6 The demise of jihadis and their culture won't happen absent a nuke or similar destroying a major American city, followed by overwhelming retaliation in kind. Otherwise our civilization slowly bleeds away as passive jihadis flood in and gain power with the help of obtuse domestic enablers.

Pretty depressing when the most hopeful outcome involves your enemy wreaking unprecedented carnage on your fellow citizens and visiting slaughter orders of magnitude greater on them.

#7 Not a bug, a feature. The jihadis aren't going to nuke a red state city.

#8 Excalibur, there's not one city entirely composed of blue baddies.

#9 i wont sign off on a genocide, but the culture must die along with the ideology that feeds it.

Uh huh, you say that now, but events may change your mind later. My opinion is already formed.

As for the second part, that can only be realized by punishing the Umma collectively, brutally and without mercy. We will need to be, the strong horse.

#10 I think we've seen how to do it with minimal collateral damage. The imams show stark fear of satellite dishes because it reveals the outside world. We have the technology and the means to saturate even their primitive environment with this weapon that can ultimately undermine their own universe.

#11 #8 Excalibur, there's not one city entirely composed of blue baddies.

Perhaps not entirely. But visit San Francisco, Boston, Seattle, DC, or Detroit. And they're all on the water.

#12 If Pak is nuked, it will be for one of three reasons.

The first is that they pitched a nuke at India, trying some lame excuse that terrorists captured it and fired the missile, and India responds forcefully.

The second is that there is a protocol, which I have long suspected, that the US has told both nations that whichever one uses nuclear weapons first will receive full retaliation from the US. Of course this is solely directed a Pak, because India would never initiate fires, as its conventional army could once again whump the Pak army.

Three is "scenario X", which could mean that yet another player gets involved.

#13 You overestimate the capability of nukes and underestimate the capability of cell phones.

In a few years, anyone with a cell phone can home school in their native language everything taught in high school and most from college.

The internal inconsistencies of the Koran are readily apparent to the literate. Literacy is the doom that the Paks should fear, not nukes.

#14 "the culture must die"

Agreed. It is however impossible to beat something with nothing. First we need to reestablish our western tradition. Only once we get our mojo back can we even presume to change, let alone banish, another culture.

#15 Economic depression has a miraculous way of restoring bourgeois values. A shame it seems to require so much pain.

#17 "Economic depression has a miraculous way of restoring bourgeois values"

Hopefully this time. Last time it led to the rise of FDR etc. Let's hope that it's finally time for the wheel to turn.

Them as have eyes to see. Unfortunately, jihad (and especially Sudden Jihadi Syndrome) seems to resonate with Western-educated muslims.

#19 Goodbye, asshole.

Stormfront.org could use another one of you. We won't have you.

It's been 80 years, that's what it usually takes. But I'm not looking forward to 2020.
