Does the fact that these people are intent on destroying our way of life and the freedoms that it affords not justification enough for our conflicts in Afganistan and to a lesser extent Iraq? If we were not fighting them there then we would be fighting them on the streets of our cities and towns.
Incidentally I am not tarring all muslims with the same brush here.

I've been there. They will kill where ever they can and then call us terrorists. They aren't the ones that scare me though; it's the people that believe their lies and blame us for them being psychopaths.

In fact the more "we fight them there", the more realistic it becomes for us to expect them to fight us "on the streets of our cities and towns". What do the people in Iraq and Afghanistan know about the Western or the Christian world? For them we sure look like infidels, throwing bombs on them and killing innocent people on their own land. Who can blame them for thinking so? What do we do to prove them wrong?
Then why do we wonder that every idiot, looking for an effective death seems like a martyr to them? Why would otherwise warring wings of Islam come together in a fight against Israel and the USA? Because they consider the anti-terrorist coalition as "the new crusaders" and fight to defend their families and their land. Its very easy to believe the terrorists' lies if Israeli or American bombs are falling over your head.
The World Trade Centre should never have happened in the first place. Not with the tracking devices super developed America has. Why were those planes let to crush in the towers?
War is not the solution. It only makes things worse. The more bombs, the more hard-core fanatics. You can't have schools and discussions when there is war around you. I think in this way we are actually helping the terrorists - that's what they want - angry and ignorant people. On both sides.

You have quite correctly identified the reasons to war against the jihadists who will take a local fight global. Al-Quaeda has vowed to fight Israel & co for bombing Hezbollah in Lebanon... anything US and Israel are targetted from Spain to Mid East. The worst part is that there are thousands of Muslims all over Europe and the US - homegrown Islamist terrorists may be American, French or British.

How with regard to the IRA? The Crusades? you may learn some history. via the way, there are non violent Muslims. i'm friends with a number of them. there's no longer multiple outcry from them because of the fact there's a stable edict in Islam against talking out against fellow Muslims--no longer between the flaws i'm prepared on approximately that faith. yet i in my view be attentive to non violent Muslims and that i've got heard a number of them bemoaning the movements of the unconventional terrorists and their effect on the international's thought of Islam. in case you look interior the Bible you will locate some stuff that's a minimum of as violent and frightening because of the fact the stuff interior the Koran. The Bible, Torah, and Koran all incorporate fabric that must be used the two via an excellent individual or an evil individual to perpetuate their values.

There is an English word: Outlaw. Any body or group of people that goes outside of the known, accepted and time tested legal and moral codes that are cultural universal, to result to inflicting pain and hard ship on his /her fellow human specie is an outlaw.It does not matter whether the person is a muslim, budhist, pagan or christian. The earlier they are halted in their tracks, the better for the human race.

Justification? How about the World Trade Center Towers? How about the way Kuwait looks down on Americans, even after we saved them from Saddam? I could go on and on.

Aggression is not the answer.
War does not heal wounds, it creates more.
Why not leave the people intent on destroying our way of life to look bad and maintain the moral high ground.
Increase security in our homelands but do not invade other countries for spurious reasons.

If Islamic terrorists hate you and are trying to kill you, is it not reasonable to try to stop them, and with violent means if necessary? And what do you call it: self-defence, fighting evil, war? And what is the alternative: try to understand them, give them what they want, just accept the attacks? In the case of Israel's enemies what the terrorists want is the total destruction of Israel, nothing less. In most other cases, they simply want to kill anyone who doesn't believe what they believe. Nice people...

I agree, keep the fight on their land, since they want to be war mongrel then they should suffer the most for it. Unfortunately war is terrible for everyone involved, however we should fight to keep our freedom and way of living because if we ever lose it to those crazies God help us.
