necessity is the mother of invention,but we don't need religious fanatics because we got guided missiles, nukes and a runaway military budget.

What? Define religious fanatics, please. Give me a break. We have people in this country that suicide bomb abortion clinics and sniper abortion doctors. We have people here that kill a bunch of finance company employees and then shoot themselves.
Are we going to nuke them? Put the nukes where they belong...on the shelf. We have treaties and moral obligations to work through these things.
If you want a radioactive nuke site as a parking lot in the middle east, then start doing your own work on your little bomb. I could guarantee you would be educationally incapable.
Further, your question is one of the most irresponsible that I have read in a long time.
Read a book or something. It will help you understand what Einstein meant when he said "man wasn't ready for the splitting the atom".
Take Care

No.
When was the last time you heard about an American packing a bomb with shrapnel and taking it into a crowded mall to kill and maim innocent men, women and children for the purpose of sheer terror - in hopes of killing as many infidels as possible and thus furthering his agenda of a demented ideology?
Or the production and distribution of a video of the beheading of an innocent victim for the same objective?
I have seen no American mutilate and drag any bodies through our streets recently - nor have I heard of any bodies being discovered that have been tortured and killed.
Or any religious affiliation demanding that you convert to their ideology - or you will be killed.
Yes, we have guided missiles and nukes - and maybe that's why your rights and freedoms continue to remain your rights and freedoms.
Have a happy thanksgiving.

ADDED: No mention in my answer about suicide bombers. Re-read it.
You have totally missed the boat on this one - it is not the "methods" that are important, it is the "reasons and objectives."
Surely you can't compare the Nazi death camps with the Allied invasions of Normandy or Germay? People died in both cases - but the reasons and objectives are NOT similar in any any way what so ever.
Neither is the indiscriminent terror, maiming and murder of thousands of innocent men, women and children to further an agenda of dominence and control vs. the tragic deaths of civilians when these psychos are finally hunted down in an effort to prevent even more murders. People die in both cases - this is tragic - but, hopefully, you can see the clear difference.

No the difference is mentality and brainwashing. Countries like Indonesia and Afghanistan have been told for generations that the American's are EVIL, wrong doing, Satan worshipers!!! That is the difference so this puts us in a position to fight Muslim extremist...terrorist and threaten with guided missiles. We are defenders not aggressors!!!

You are very correct in your assesment of the whole situation.
Killing by soldiers is right even if its a occupying force
killing by civilians is wrong, even if they are oppressed.
Kill, but let the prez say so. and you are a hero. and create Satans for the heros need a livelihood.

No, I do not! We have the flexibility to hold a live and let live attitude. We don't behead people who refuse to convert to our particular religion/religions. Preposterous....

That's right - it's the innocent who always suffer

We also have ethics and morals and do not believe others deserve to die because we do not believe in their god.

No. They want to kill us because they hate us. We want to kill them to stop them from killing us.
