| #5 ZF; it's no different than drawing a distinction between Nazis and Germans or communists and Russians. We don't, I hope, have to slaughter all Muslims, but we DO have to openly recognise the conflict between the enlightenment virtues / values and the dark ages death cult which is attacking us. Turkey can decide if it wants to be part of the modern age or if it would rather revert to a pre-Ataturk life run by sharia. |

| #4 Though I voted for him twice I mostly blame GWB for this. As of 9/11 it was up to him to define the enemy and go after it openly. We are at war with Islam not their preferred tactic of terrorism. Just how do you get Congress to go along with a campaign to erase Islam from this Earth? Let say he convinces Congress - how do you get cooperation from foreign countries? Do you really think Europe would allow US forces on their soil to be used to erase Turkey from the map? |

| #2 Yet more of the insidious PC wussification of the west. Though I voted for him twice I mostly blame GWB for this. As of 9/11 it was up to him to define the enemy and go after it openly. We are at war with Islam not their preferred tactic of terrorism. |

| #1 It's not COIN per se, but rather the associated ROE. Then again, I don't expect Diane West to be knowledgable. |
