It may sound hard, but I'd rather a religion let their kids die instead of going out and murdering other people.
The why is easy, imo. That religion is that way. Look at it's history. Look at the intolerance it preaches for other religions. The Catholics were never THIS bad, and they even cleaned up their act in terms of trying to conquer the world to force their religion on everyone else. These animals never stop, and the only thing they understand is overwhelming force. Look, the community organizer called for a new tone, he reached out to them, we even let them build a mosque at Ground Zero, and they STILL are murdering us. WTF will it take to get them to stop doing this other than violence?
Skinning people alive with seashells isn't that bad, eh? Or how about the infamous Spanish land grab, covered up with an "Inquisition"? Or how about when a Catholic priest referred to the Smallpox decimating the Native Americans as "the hand of god"?
And it's pretty stupid to lump all muslims together in one single, like-thinking group. There's over a billion of them, and there's more than one denomination. There's no shortage of muslims who are calling these murders "unislamic", and citing specific passages of the Quran that state explicitly that you NEVER kill anyone, even on the battlefield, if they are not facing you and are actively engaged in combat with you.
The extremist movement is not religious, and if you read the works of Galula, you'd understand these things better. It's economic and power-based... as it has been for centuries.
