(32,886 posts)You commit the logical fallacy of "False Dilemma" proposing that the only existing and therefore logical positions to have are if someone does something we don't like we go to war and if not, we don't go to war.
As I noted in my piece earlier this week on my show, there are in fact countries and groups who if we leave alone, they will leave us alone. But ISIS is not one of those groups and ISIS proved that with the execution of the Japanese Prisoners.

My position and the position of people who agree with me isn't that Saudi Arabia or Qatar or even Germany and England don't do things we dislike on occasion. We believe that it is wrong to treat every issue as if our only tool is a hammer.
For you to assert otherwise and that for us not to use the hammer in all occasions is juvenile.
