Of course Jihadists are simply doing the will of Allah no matter how barbaric and sadistic it might be. And how dare the Jews (and the Americans) stop the Moslems in their conquest of the entire world! And the Moslems rant about the colonialist, imperialist West! Oh Moslem, look within your soul and ask yourself if you are realy doing Allahs will or that of the Devil? Interesting how commenters blame Israel for being the victim of the Jihadists!

So, how do we deal with it as it is? How do we make it less destructive than it will be if we do nothing but let it play itself out as it will? Can we, then even make a fruitful effort to curb the excesses of war? Well, if one is an Israeli the proof is obvious; but to the average Westerner the truth is not at all clear, is in fact, obscured by clouds. Some know that war's drama can be made less dramatic if managed, if directed rationally. At the risk of seeming fantastical, I suggest that we look beyond the horizons of our leaders, past the charts and screens of our wisest generals, and that we look at ourselves. Yes, friends, but I only hearken to realities provable in fact. War and conquest in the West need not remain forever in the realm of only the experts of the legitimate state. No, I don't think Israelis will or should bind up themselves and colonize from Constantinople to Dakar, though I would like that were it feasible. But you, but me, but them and the others, the ones who can and have and will if they can again, there's the making of the reality of Men. Not these days? Not possible any longer? No, friend, that's wrong, the voice of the welfare state speaking your words for you. Look, if you will at the 'no-state actors' who precede us, at the drug-gang, at the terrorist outfit, at the commercial interest. Yes, the Iranians are the finest military in the world, commanded by the greatest military geniuses since Alexander the Great. Who would ever think they could be defeated, let alone on their own home ground? Oh, should I make the list here? But no, the idea is there, and the people await. My own share in an Iranian oil well? Fly fishing in the Zagros? A cute Iranian girlfriend? Yeah, but where's my incentive? Ah, the war itself. Even the finest military on Earth cannot stop a man who wants to get his own. Nothing will change the profit motive, and nothing will stop the innate urge to war. The only question is how to manage it for fun and profit at the least expense. Invade and capture Iran just like the neo-cons and the oil companies do? Am I joking? No, I just think very small. Very, very small.
