Easy to paint with broad brush...yes some are uneducated... Many are poor...but to think they are all dumb is wrong..bin laden was engineer...others were/are doctors scientist etc. Fanatical thinking doesn't discriminate. Trump is an intelligent man with extreme views.... Fanatical... I think he is an idiot and liar (99% of politicians are) but I don't want to kill him or have anyone else kill him. He has an ideology. There is no one fits all theory. BTW they invented algebra.. Demented people are hard to predict....like I said no easy answers...
If we are up front about it, Germany, Japan, etc…, it seems to work. But we installed Democracies there with people who didn’t put ideology in front of the rule of law. In the Middle East, ideology is the rule of law. It’s very hard to argue logic with people who are uneducated, poor, and have been indoctrinated from birth to an ideology.

Here is the part that I don't understand...... Everything that I know about the US Gov.

So why is it when one is talking about the US's actions, everyone refers to it as if the US President is acting like any of the other dictators. Is is just a way to dump on a President cause he or she is from the other party ? Last time I checked, irrespective of all the rhetoric from Washington, all parties were equally responsible for participating in actions which have lead to Foreign Policy failure after failure...

All news organizations have a political leaning including BBC, Al Jazeera, and NPR. In many cases it’s not what they report, it’s what they fail to report that is just as bad or worse. BBC rarely reports anything negative about the British Government and is as bad as the New York Times about not reporting anything negative about a Democrat. Of course both of them do it, but the amount of time or the amount of resources will be far less than the opposite side of the side of the issue. Al Jazeera never reports anything bad about the Muslim or Islamic faith and NPR is almost as bad as the BBC when it comes to never saying anything about a liberal government. I think NBC, CBS, and ABC have the same advisor telling them what negative information not to report on Obama for example. As for NPR, they lost all credibility with me when they fired Juan Williams because he said something their management didn’t like and he is a huge liberal. There is an argument now that Google can pretty much influence an election by a huge amount by pushing positive news information in their search engine about their liberal candidate up while simultaneously doing the same thing in a negative light towards a Conservative candidate. At this point, it’s pretty much up to us to watch news organizations from both sides of the aisle and try to sort out the truth.

Obama is a jackass. Fox news is far from perfect. As a businessman though I recommend not calling your potential customers dumb though. Fox may be a group of liars, but at this point in time they are the least biased news source in the US (50% biased vs 100%). Pretty much all of the rest of them are brown nosing the left so bad I can't see how they haven't suffocated themselves.

Extremely disordered cognitive functioning. …Never mind the real subtleties all the “informed” people on the Right seem to forget, chief among them that the IRAQI POLITICIANS SAID THE ONLY WAY WE COULD KEEP OUR TROOPS IN COUNTRY WAS TO REMOVE THEIR IMMUNITY AND MAKE THEM SUBJECT TO LIABILITY AND PROSECUTION. No one on this side of the pond wanted that, from the DoD to BOTH parties. Of course, FOX viewers either are too dumb to know this or intentionally pretend that was not the reality, in order to take yet another “it’s Obama’s fault” grade school insult. It’s just way more satisfying or simpler for their juvenile world view to believe “it’s Obama’s fault!” What, are you 10 years old? http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/05/world/middleeast/iraqis-say-no-to-immunity-for-remaining-american-troops.html?_r=0 People really need to educate themselves before spewing childish partisan memes.

Vietnam had no wholesale bombing like WWII. that is one reason Vietnam, and the rest of these conflicts, last so long. The horror of war has to be brought to everyone, including those making the decisions, to bring it to an end. But having said that, this Muslim extremists movement has been been going on for about 700 years so it may be to much to expect to be out of war again. There may be a lull, but I think the entire world has been drawn into the middle East quagmire. The primary cause damn sure isn't a two degrees warming tend in a couple decades.

We also burned a lot of good will in all the countries we need to do this with when we got the local civilians to act as translators and informants and abandoned them after the war, the highest profile of them the doctor in Pakistan.
