Terror Strikes Home - Paris and Belgium

Last week brought home the terror Islamist terror attacks to the Western World's doorsteps.  Twelve people were killed in Paris because some small minded Islamists were insulted and offended by satirical cartoons drawn by Charlie Hebdo artists.

This whackadoo Islamist wish to bring their brand of Islam and terror to the world.  Because they are so up close and personal with Allah and Mohamed they know what God and the Prophet want and are offended by.  If Islamist want to rule by terror in their lands, so be it.  If the people they rule won't rise up against the slaughter and terror, so be it.

When the terror comes to our lands and our homes, we must continue to defend and fight for our way of life.  Islamist are adamant about insults to their religion and way of life.  We, as freedom loving people, must also be equally offended by their hatred of our way of life and acceptance of diversity. 

What do we do next? Again take the war to their lands?  An argument can be made for destruction of their whole society.  Do they really want to make it a war of West vs. Islamist?  If the West fully mobilized and aimed to root out the Islamist, the West wins.  When I say root out Islamists, I mean the whole destruction of society from top down.  Eliminate all fighters, men and potential fighters.  They want a blood bath on our shores, take the fight to their homes and destroy everything they hold dear.

Nazi Germany posed a real threat to the destruction of the free world and the free world armed up and fought back.  The price was  heavy on both sides but the threat has been eliminated.  Nazi Germany nor allies will ever threaten again.  Same with thing happened with Imperial Japan.  A total war of destruction without mercy stopped a society hell bent on domination.  In ending the Pacific theatre of operations, the United States resorted to the only wartime use of nuclear arms.  Again, total war, total destruction and total victory.

Does the rest of the world need to continuously keep vigilant against terror groups?  Yes.  Can the West entirely eliminate terror groups?  No.  Should the West mobilize to destroy and annihilate societies that support extremism?  Yes.  How?  Arm to the teeth, invade and destroy all strongholds of the enemy.  Completely destroy societies if it means massacre of the people.  This is no different than the World War II fire bombings of Dresden and Tokyo.  You don't just break and destroy the infrastructure, you break and destroy the will of the people.

And when the blood letting is done, we remind Muslims they are free to practice their religion in their countries and lands but they must police themselves against extremists.  If they don't the price will be heavy....all Muslims will pay with death and total annihilation of their religion.  And the first place the massacre will start will be the nuclear bombing of their holy sites.

Will it ever happen?  Of course not.  The West, including the United States, don't have the stomach or the will to take such extreme measures.  But it is a price we must pay if we wish not to live in constant fear.  Instead, the alternative, is much cleaner. No one wants to send their sons and daughters into battle.  Again, look at the price the West and Allies paid to destroy a global threat.  I doubt we'd pay such a heavy price again but one would be paid to achieve out goals. 

Instead our governments wish to adhere to our ideas of justice and not impose our will on our enemies.  We should instead, adhere to our enemies ideas of justice and impose it on them for the crimes the commit against our societies.
