Weird there was a ad in my post.. My browser had crashed I wonder if i "caught" something - somewhat ironic for an ebola post.

It was not my intention to put those ads in there.. I removed a firefox plug-in "deallink" that I think was auto-adding them in.

I guess that works if you want the Israelis to grow extra limbs

And the worst thing is it wouldn't even be only the Israelis - you'd have millions of innocent people in Iraq and Syria and the whole region that would die - it's not like Isis is on some far away island somewhere. IMO it would be really hard to get rid of Isis without a really big operation/war on the one hand. On the other hand we've already seen that Isis itself was created out of such one. What to do NOW is a difficult question - I don't envy those needing to decide it. What to do MONTHS ago well they should have used alot more aerial strikes. Now it's too late for those to really make a dent.

Be careful with this sentiment. Next thing you'll know, I have folks calling for my head because I follow Islam.

Well, anyone who does that is kind of a DB. Even though some people might not like my opinion on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict(although I have said many times that I support a two state solution with the 1967 borders and mutually agreed land swaps etc etc, I just think it should be done in an agreement with reasonable security arrangements for a while and not unilaterally and I also think that does not contradict Israel's right to defend itself from Hamas...btw I've asked for some constructive and productive suggestions there and for two days now the thread is quiet lol) I really don't have a problem with most Muslims. A few years before I met my now American wife I actually had a British gf whose mom is Muslim and came from Iran - one of those who left after the revolution. I can understand the anger and the emotional posts by some folks here about open season because, well, Israelis have been dealing with that for decades and longer.

But it would not be right to nuke a whole country or region cause Isis happens to be there at the moment just as it would not be right to call for your head because you follow Islam.

I think if Muslims in the US were largely terrorists at heart we would have been victim to considerably more domestic attacks than have thus far taken place. I know what you mean though, but really it's not Muslims or the mainstream Muslim faith, it's the wacked out few who have hijacked the faith and use its terminology to hide their actual desire for political purposes.

Have no fear that most people understand the difference between an actual Muslim and the groups like Al Quida or ISIS.

I'm glad this part is true.
