They have started already

So those people that I suggested we bomb en masse have turned up in Australia. They were planning on taking some bystander off the street and beheading them. Yet some here got upset when I suggested obliterating them.

Fortunately they were apprehended before they could do their evil deed.

Stop letting the nasty 'beheading' thing make you crazy. Pretend they just shoot their victims like normal bad guys. The victims of beheading aren't extra-dead because of the messy method, you know.....

It's not like we can wave a magic wand and obliterate them and only them. You'd have 'collateral damage.' The equivalent of thousands and thousands of beheadings....

It is an islamic thing because if the head is buried apart from the body terrible things happen to the soul according to their belief.

The collateral damage has already occurred because once IS takes over an area they kill everyone who will not subscribe to their misbegotten beliefs.

As to your suggestion as far as these misbegotten pigs are concerned I think Drawing and Quartering would be apropos.

How does this fit with suicide bombers that blow themselves to bits?

Apparently then there's no difference between hanging, a firing squad, or lethal injection?

Why something is done matters.

OK. I agree that they are brutal and filled with malice and hate, and I understand that they piss you off.

Just don't let them fill you with malice and hate.

It's done because we hates them. Always, everywhere, regardless. True for all values of 'we' and 'them.'

1. "Those people?"
2. Where would "we" bomb them?
3. What impact do you believe that would have?

I empathize with your displeasure but folks like this have existed since the beginning of time. What you have now is mass media.

We are no more or less safe than we were before 9/11, no more or less safe than we were before Pearl Harbor.

Somebody just wants you to believe that we are for THEIR benefit.

Screw that.
