Are the men and women of the US armed forces simply cowards or is it something else?

Yep, it’s an old post, but pretty well in line with what I’m seeing @Cubsfan write about Afghanistan lately:

@Cubsfan

I think the issue actually arises from the overwhelming majority of the worlds Islamic population being dumber than a box of shitrocks. The vast majority of the nations that are primarily Muslim have huge unemployment and people who can’t even spell their own fucking names. They are easily lead sheep who go in whatever direction the village elder points. This is why Afghanistan is a lost cause because the people will never be educated enough to think critically about their own religion, which is a problem when your society revolves around it.

I have had several Muslim friends over my life who are intelligent, thoughtful individuals who can be reasoned and debated with and I enjoy their company.

FTR I’m agnostic and have no dog in the religion fight, but for every Christian violent extremist there are 1000 Muslim extremists. I also guarantee that a way higher % of Muslim extremists would chop your fucking head off ASAP than Christian wackos. To claim otherwise is to be a pc extremist.

ETA: Yes I know my guarantees and percentages don’t mean shit to anyone but me but what the fuck eh?

Yep, I’m the asshole. Probably a “pc extremist” too.

Thank you for your service, @Cubsfan.
