"You handle terror the same way some police handle 'broken window' policing. If you let terrorists get away with the small stuff, the large stuff is soon to follow."
What kind of satanic, twisted evil is this? It continues to haunt our land and destroy innocent lives. And just when you think you have seen the worst of it, along comes the carnage which happened on Good Friday. An innocent Catholic priest. Kidnapped while serving others, many of those the lease of us. Kidnapped and then crucified, crucified on Good Friday. In 2016 some person was crucified! All this done by Islamic Terrorists!
The human part of me is crying out for vengeance. I, along with many others have had way more than enough. Kill them all, and let God sort them out! But then I think of yesterday. The teachings. About how vengance is only the Lord's. However, there is justice. We need to bring these terrorists to justice. And justice may be standing trial at the Hague. Or it may be fighting to the death. In any event, this has got to stop. Not tomorrow. Not today. Like yesterday.
Here is the problem as I see it. The bad guys are becoming ever more embolden. It seems that there is no red line that will stop them. Crucifying a priest on Good Friday? That was a "catch me if you can" moment. And they knew they could get away with it. So now they will kick the can down the street just a bit more. What is next? A bomb in a church in Des Moines on a Sunday morning? Beheading some family in their living room in Boise? Frag grenades on a crowded shopping day at the MOA?
Or will they go for the big score. A truck bomb loaded with spent radioactive material going down Michigan Avenue in Chicago? A suitcase nuke in Lower Manhattan? And then what? Any response? My opinion is quite simple. You handle terror the same way some cops handle "broken window" policing. If you let terrorists get away with the small stuff, the large stuff is soon to follow.
So welcome to the "War on Terror, 2.0". Under this version we have a new strategy. Just ignore it and it will go away. In the past 30 days, there have been over 100 terror attacks by Islamists worldwide. And very little response. It is not a matter of if, but when the next one will hit Europe or on our shores.
But dance on Mr. President. Or go see a ball game. I am sure everything will be just fine. Or not.
