There has to be collateral damage "you dumb naive ass that thinks he knows everything", air strikes and boots on the ground will do nothing for the vermin over there. A certain war was ended because of some massive atomic explosions that really fucked up allot of people and allot of shit, it was beyond inhumane and a travesty against mankind.....but it was effective none the less. The Middle East being strategically nuked would for sure quiet things down for a good long time, there is no other conventional way of warfare in that region that will be effective. So since that is not going to happen, we will continue to have our soldiers killed while making no headway or progress. We will open Pandoras box for Al Qaeda to rebuild and gain strength and momentum, and the circle will continue again and again. People are fleeing and relocating in massive numbers, so let "ISRAEL" take advantage of that. Of course I am all for saying to hell with the entire thing, because whatever we do is not gonna make a shit bit of difference. Us striking will cause more harm than good, and us putting boots on the ground "and that will happen" will be more wasted dollars we do not have and more lives we should not be losing. Too many people are suffering over there and things will never get better, might be time to end the suffering. I sure would not want to be the one making that call, but nothing else is going to work for very long. And how do you know there was no rioting, you do not watch the news remember? Was it as violent as MANY thought it would be, thankfully no. For once many individuals kept a level head, no good outcome was gonna occur.....and the authorities were ready unlike the LA riots.
