The following came from an article I read. It is not a popular opinion and does not fit todays candy rear society, but still interesting reading.<br /><br />"Just before WWI there were a number of terrorist attacks on US forces in the Phillipines by Muslim extremists. So, General Pershing captured 50 terrorists and had them tied to posts for execution. He then had his men bring in 2 pigs to slaughter in front of the now horrified terrorists.<br />Muslims detest pork because they believe pigs are filthy animals. Some of them simply refuse to eat it, while others won't even touch pigs at all, nor any of their by-products. To them eating or touching a pig, it's meat, it's blood etc. is to be instantly banned from paradise (and those 72 v!rgins)and doomed to Hell. <br />The soldiers then soaked their bullets in the pigs blood and proceeded to execute 49 of the terrorists by firing squad. The soldiers then dug a big hole, dumped the terrorists bodies in and covered them with the pigs blood, entrails etc. <br />They let the 50th man go. And for the next 42 years, there was not a single muslim extremist attack anywhere in the world."<br />The question is where do we find another General Black Jack Pershing and a congress full of people with a little spine to let Americans defend America? <br /><br />In my opinion we are being sold down the river by those who want to pamper our enemies. Wars are not only won on the battle field, they are lost in the government ofifces. The only way to win a war is to kill every last enemy, their descendants, and all of their friends. Otherwise they will always be organizing for another fight. The other wya is to take away their will to fight. You will not take away their will to fight by pampering them. To the current enemies of our great nation death is not a loss, it is their own victory. We need to find a way to take away their will to fight and injure our citizens. <br /><br />I do not condone the abuse that has been accused against the prisoners. But on the same side I do not completely detest it either. We need to be hard handed with thes people to take away their will to fight us. We do need to be bigger than they are with our tactics and morality, but the only people who will take note of that is the U.S. citizens watching TV, and a few other countries. You can bet though that our enemies are watching CNN and see that we are tearing each other apart with this war. That alone is fuel to their fight. Part of winning is taking away the will to fight. Watching our news reports makes it look like our troops will to be in this fight is falling. After all when families and friends at home are against the fight, then it stands to reason so are the soldiers.
