"pathetic as the rest of the world" - heheh ok, let it be that way :-)
I think that you somehow misunderstood my point. I think that - sadly - there is no possibility to win a war WITH BOMBS AND ARMS with fanatic ideology that believe in better life after death...and doesnt value life at all.
The only way to win such "war" is to eradicate that type of thinking that leads to such type of fanatism. Which in my opinion would be - educate people, have them love material things
and current life more than life after death (that they are supposed to get only if they will blow up themselves because some fat sheikh that fucks 15 years old virgins IN THIS LIFE just told these naive and stupid people to do...)
yeah I know, I know...it all sounds like hippie bullshit
but IMO it is like it is...
the realism is that - sadly - there will be always bad and good people, and I agree that good people should have means to stand for their values..that I share and understand.
so just
also, if you would think more about it - Im pretty sure that you would start to wonder if actually SOME terrorist groups have SOME connections with intelligence agencies of SOME & VARIOUS countries....at least the guys that I name "fat sheikhs". not the usual typical useful idiots that will blow themselves up. sadly it is like that.

We had no military with much offensive capability until 1941, then we had to clean up the world's mess again, twice in 40 years so we just decided to keep our toys and not let that happen again. You should be thankful. We don't want to play the world's police, if you live here you know that sentiment is not for being all over the place refereeing everybody. Nobody else will do it, has the ability or will power and if we don't someone bigger and badder will come and really fuck your world up. Imagine what Putin would do if he didn't have the US to worry about every night. He'd probably have gobbled up half of Eastern Europe already aiming for Western soon. There would be no South Korea or Japan for that matter. Taiwan would be part of the PRRC as well as Hong Kong and most of the South China sea area. Pakistan would tear into India and reverse all the time. Israel would have destroyed all it's Arab enemies by now if we didn't have to restrain them and beg to let the diplomatic course work.
