Three questions:

1) Where do I sign up?

2) Can I bring my own gun?

3) Are there group discounts?

"[W]ith bikini-clad women on white sand beaches, meals of fresh saltwater fish and people snorkeling with dolphins in clear blue water," who said crime (jihad) doesn't pay? I only wish our soldiers would be treated as well when they came home from the Afghani battlefield.

As I said on LGF 2.0:

No, President Obama, Islamic *Jihad* has always been a part of America’s story. That’s what the Treaty of Tripoli was all about: Morocco “recognized” America after we kicked their asses for piracy against our shipping. As the Marine Corps Hymn says, “From the Halls of Montezuma to the Shores of Tripoli; we will fight our country’s battles in the air, on land and sea.”

Thomas Jefferson obtained that Koran to help him understand America’s enemies. Islam’s Sharia Law is diametrically opposed to the democratic principles on which our country was founded. Therefore, when that congressman took his oath of office using that Koran, I wouldn’t be suprised if he considered it just another act of taqiyya in his own mind. Most of the “Christian” congressmen nowadays don’t take their oath of office seriously as it is.

With all due respect, Hesperado, you underestimate the power of the living God. I have no "fanciful hopes" about changing a substantial number of 1.3 billion Muslims. Even the Bible itself says that the majority of people will not be "saved" (c.f. Matthew 7:13-14). That being said, the battle against Islam is ultimately a spiritual one. We can beat them in the battlefield, but we can’t be there forever. No nation in history has ever conquered Afghanistan and retained control of it—and nothing happening there indicates that the U.S. will be an exception to this either.

I am not saying that it should be official U.S. policy, but if a few private individuals want to bring Bibles into the country and take the risks of a small-scale distribution themselves, the U.S. military shouldn’t stop them. Like it or not, the U.S. is perceived by the Islamic world as a “Christian” nation. The concept of the separation of church and state is completely foreign to Islam. Therefore, the burning of these Bibles (read: desicration) makes us look weak in the eyes of our enemies since it demonstrates that we have no faith in the God we're supposed believe in. At the very least the U.S. Military should have quietly returned the Bibles to the original donors and told them to stop. By publically destroying these Bibles the U.S. Military scored a few PR points for the Taliban.

If you’re an atheist, then perhaps you can cynically spin the distribution of Bibles in your own mind as a part of PSYOPS.

For whatever its worth, that’s my opinion.

Since Islam's scriptures command it's believers to kill the infidels, then it stands to reason that any Muslim who takes his religion seriously will eventually do what its scriptures say. Therefore, it would seem that the best way to defeat jihadists once and for all is to convert as many of them as possible to Christianity--not through force, but through a genuine change of heart. The God of the Bible promises that his word will not return void. The U.S. Military should have made the Bibles available to the Afghan people and to those who were willing to distribute them.
