Reason vs. Terrorism

Home

The government of the United States of America should destroy not just individual terrorists, but employ overwhelming military force to destroy terrorist regimes, including but not limited to Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Sudan. America must set a clear and unmistakable example--opposite to that of Vietnam, and identical in principle to WW2 Japan--those who attack Americans will be destroyed.
