An Eye for an Eye

Gandhi said, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."

They kill us, so we kill them, then they kill us for killing them, then we kill them for them killing us because we killed them for killing us . . .

Is there an end to this pattern?

Of course we can just give up and hope the Jihadists will be merciful. Personally, I'd rather kill them before they kill us.

Ghandi's non violent resistance worked with the British, because he knew the British people were basically decent, and he could appeal to their sense of compassion. Martin Luther King used the same strategy. I don't think Ghandi's strategy would have worked with a Muslim country.

No wonder the US never amounted to anything, it's about as culturally diverse as you can get, and has been since it's inception.

Multiculturalism is the opposite of what has made us great. The belief that all cultures are equal has a Balkanizing effect. It fragments and weakens the country.

United we stand. Divided we fall.

I have no issue if j-b said "common core values", but he didn't.

We have never been a cultural melting pot, but a cultural quilt.
--5th most living languages of any country
--Every conceivable cuisine, art, and small community preserving their CULTURE
--Walk across NYC and actually look at what you see; within 10 blocks of the house I grew up in I can count Columbian, German, Irish, Russian, Indian, Pakistani, Chinese, and Korean enclaives. All have their shops and businesses--all reflecting their heritage but reflecting their interpretaion of those common cultures. There are at least 14 different religeons/religeous denominations.

By the way: countries with the least linguistic diversity--therefore by j-b's logic the kind of country he aspires to--include: No Korea, Cuba, Haiti. All in the seven most "culturally unified" countries. Yep, blind logical disconnect at it's best.
