We've known that Islamic extremists are dishonorable since the days of the
Crusades.  Their religion teaches that non-believers are not human, therefore
it's not wrong to kill any of them, nor is it wrong to break promises to them.

Simply put, these people cannot be negotiated with (since we can't trust them
to uphold their end of the agreement) and cannot coexist with others.  They
hate everyone except themselves.

Yup.  To me, it's always been two fleas fighting over the dog.  IHMO: we should
stay out and let them duke it out between themselves.

But too many people want to use the conflict for their own purposes (having
nothing to do with the conflict itself).
