Ok let me get this straight



Trijicon puts a bible reference on their product, which our soldiers use, is construed and twisted that we are defacto "Christian Crusaders invading Islam"



While we must have the up most respect for their Quran, and even rumors that we don't sparks riots and protests



What next soldiers will be forbidden to carry bibles or wear crosses or carry greenbacks?, as it would allow Muslim extremists to claim that the U.S. is waging a holy war in Iraq and Afghanistan?.



I really believe that 99% + of the Muslim community are likely good honest people, but they have done nothing to clean up the mess.

The Twin Towers, the Cole, the embassies, along with other numerous attacks on America, brought our military to them, nothing else.

I'd say in this round of the conflict we blinked, and they didn't have to do anything at all.
We are so worried that a reference to the bible will be used as a recruiting tool, might they just as well use an American quarter with "IN God We Trust" as one?

We are not after the people of Islam, we are after the people who misuse the the word of Islam, in an effort to hurt or destroy us. We will never defeat them by giving up on our principles, on our beliefs, we will only defeat them by tracking them down and killing them.

This is a war that we can not compromise, or coddle the enemy, they see that as weakness, and our weakness is what they seek to exploit. Remember history folks, compromise led to WWII. You win wars by being harder than your enemy, and making their cost to fight us higher than they want to pay. War is not civilised ask any veteran. to quote General William T Sherman: “War is at its best barbarism.”

"War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them all they want."- General William T. Sherman, & "War is cruelty. There's no use trying to reform it, the crueler it is the sooner it will be over."

We are not going to win the war on terror, by trying to appease the terrorists
