It has been with a heavy heart that I have listened to many of my fellow LDS and others reject correct principles in regards to reacting to terrorists and our adventurism overseas.
I feel the above article is as clear as it can be explained. I encourage everyone to give it a read, and please share your thoughts, pro or con.
Please prayerfully and carefully choose your actions in the coming year, especially in regards to your votes and the principles you choose to support.The Jihadi terrorists' ultimate goal is to convince Muslim youth worldwide that there is no alternative to terrorism. And terrorist attacks are the way to achieve that goal, because the fear of death will awaken and magnify the latent anti-Muslim sentiments in Europe and America, inducing the non-Muslim population to treat all Muslims as potential attackers.
And that is exactly what is happening. The hysterical anti-Muslim reaction to terrorism is generating fear and resentment among Muslims living in Europe and America. The older generation reacts with fear, the younger one with resentment; the result is a breeding ground for potential terrorists. This is a mutually reinforcing, reflexive process.
