Griever is exactly right, many of you know Im a former Marine myself, deployed many times to the area......
These people aren too worried bout the troops, because their fight has been and has ALWAYS been a religious one.
They want their extreme muslim views to be the prevailing muslim views through out the whole region.......
they fought and they fought hard against the U.S and other occupations, but they always knew that it would be a temporary gain.....
Their whole objective, is to take control of the region AFTER we left, they always knew we would....they have much more foresight then people think
they do.....
You cant fight 2000 years of religious ideology with weapons, because they dont care, they dont play by the rules......they play by the martyr
code...
Do they care if innocents die? NO, because if they arent in their specific realm of "muslim" beliefs then they are infidels too....and if they ARE
in that realm and they die along side them, then they get rewarded as well.......
there is no logic here........there is only ONE religion to these people and ONE way.......and its death other wise.......
As soon as we withdrawn everyone we have, they have free reign to access any caches and resources they have left over, to exert pressure on what ever
remaining governing rule there is.....and they wont stop.....once the foothold is made there, they will continue to do so through out the world, as
much as possible......
Unless you have been there, fought against, bled, and had brothers and sisters die in the face of this monstrosity , there is no way you can grasp the
horror and resolve of a religion HELL bent on making everyone else on the planet conform to them or die..........this makes the crusades look like a
piknik on lollipop hill.......
Edit * This is NOT all muslims, im talking about the extremist, the jihadi etc...a lot of the muslim faith does not believe in this sort of death and
destruction take over........
