I agree that it’s not a palatable solution; however, you must view it in context. What alternative do we have? Subject U.S. to a police state while our enemies run free and plot our destruction?

We may need to enforce a police state of sorts on our enemies; so that those who are not extremists will have time to establish a more “Just” society. Then, and only then can we allow them the right of self-determination.

It worked with Germany and Japan. Why wouldn’t it work in the Middle East?
