I do bring up the war more than any other issue, because I happen to believe we’re in one, and it should be won. I have no problem debating strategies and objectives, but there are some arguments that bore me right away. I am not intolerant of these ideas. I’m just tired of them. They come from some Happy-clappy parallel universe where Islamic terrorists do not bayonet little kids in the gut when they ask for water. I do not live there.
I do not live there either. I wish I did sometimes but I seem to have an unfortunate addiction to reality.
Go read the whole ‘bleat’ (it should be a screed) by James Lileks.

Like when hearing the ‘moderate’ muslims insists that these are “merely criminals”, giving a bad name to islam.
What exactly is the good name?
