Forest Gump and "The Religion of Peace"

That's a great blog, and very instructive for us today. There's also a little interesting part of that which happened before Jefferson took over. When the Barbary Pirates were doing their thing we didn't initially have a Naval Force to defend ourselves, and America was paying tribute to them so they wouldn't attack us. If I remember correctly, we were paying 20% of our GDP to these thugs. Along came James Madison and said, "We will pay millions for a Navy, but not a penny for tribute". That was the beginning of the U.S. Navy.
Like you said, the mindset of our enemy has not changed at all. There are of course peace-loving Arabs, in fact I believe the over-whelming majority would never consider participating in the heinous acts of terror that we see so much (although they are strangely silent when they should be vocally outraged with their own). Anyway, it's the small percentage, which in real numbers is millions, of the radicals Islamo-fascists that literally want to coercively take over the world. This strain of "The Religion of Peace" is extremely dangerous and can be stopped in only one way.......kill them. They cannot be reasoned with at all. They make false treaties to gain time to rebuild their troop's forces, they strap bombs onto women and children, they target innocent civilians. They are demonic, and evil to the core.........AND LET ME MAKE THIS ONE THING CLEAR..........THEY SERVE A DIFFERENT god THAN I DO. To paraphrase Forest Gump, "peaceful is as peaceful does".
