We Could Talk To The Nice Terrorists!

Taking a page from what Hussein Obama is planning, we could simply talk to the nice terrorists and all should be great! Obama is all for talking to terrorists and rogue nations alike. That is all that is needed because once those terrorists and rogue nations understand hope & change then we can all run through the flowers, skipping and jumping along!

NOT! There have been many nations in Europe, your ole stomping ground, who have pledged their support in Afghanistan. Now that things are getting tough in that nation the usual weak Eurpoean nations want no part of it and it remains yet another problem of the world that only the United States of America must attack and defeat the wrong doers. Just like WWI and all the rest, the European nations are liberal and unable to defend themselves against any attack and do not desire to defend themselves, as well. You know yourself that if it was not for the USA then Hitler would have taken everything. heck, he already had before we got involved. We may only have a 200+ world history as a nation but we have spent a lot of lives, money and time defending the weak, liberal idiots in Europe. No wonder you live here now! No wonder everyone wants to move here, yet you slam our nation with worthless liberal propaganda! Typical!

This is not a bad ideal, nada; however, in practicum it is simply that --
an ideal.  Governments and organizations look for leverage, not fairness.  If fairness gets into the equation, rest assured it is involuntary and inadvertant on both sides, regardless of lip service.  And there is another flaw in your argument.  All terrorists aren't Muslim.  Timothy McVeigh was an American Christian.  The Red Army of Italy use terrorist tactics, as do the Shining Path and other South American militant groups, not to mention the various drug cartels and organizations.  Eliminating terrorism would take true equality throughout the world (something you most certainly and admirably suggest) but is impractical given the current state of the human condition.  But terrorism is a tool of the fanatic and the zealot and the politically cunning and cannot truly be either fought or eliminated, merely prepared for, defended and retaliated against.
