This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
I say we should hire willing Mercenaries to do the work
You do realize that the US hired a lot of mercenaries during the Iraqi War, and they performed miserably. It's a strategy that's not gonna work.
Alright. Then lets send our troops over even though many are unwilling to fight a fight we shouldn't be fighting. Nothing is more honorable than risking and possibly dying for someone else's nation.
When foreign adversaries like these can greatly affect the American homeland when left unchecked, yes, it's absolutely honorable to die in a preemptive action. These extremist Islamist groups aren't just the middle east's problem, they're our problem and our enemy too.
And who do you think originally created that threat? Who caused the Middle East to destabilize?
Abdul Hamid II
Back then, we left the Middle East alone.. Did we have acts of terrorism occur in our nation from Middle Eastern people? Or was it just from groups like the KKK?
Really?

Overseas acts of terror would have been a logistical nightmare back then. They were essentially unheard of worldwide. Globalization wasn't the thing it is now, and that changes everything.
 Also, there was no way to get the kind of results that you can today to make a terrorist attack worthwhile. "Hey guys, let's take a ship for two months to America to lynch a few people at most and burn a church before we're killed." Sounds like a fine idea. Who wouldn't be jumping at the opportunity?

Yeah. No.

1. Problems stem from colonialism.
2. CIA never touched UBL during Op. Cyclone. Didn't need to.
3. No.

Well, at least it's fun to destroy all the arguments of tinfoil hatters since they often have an insane amount of holes in them.
