I posted "the never ending war on another board and got this reply in 3 minutes.

The leadership of the Islamic militant groups are just being smart. In warfare a good general exploits the weaknesses of his enemy. It's sad (because we are on the side of the short sighted schmucks being exploited) but its just the way war works.
I'm sure that if I were in a street fight and I happened to kick my opponent in the nuts when he was laying half conscious on the ground I would get a lot of grief from my more consciences friends...but I would win that battle and the amount of battles won usually determines who wins the war. (if anyone actually does win a war)
If we were smart we would unbind the hands of our generals, block out the media and let the war dogs do what they do best: kill people and destroy things.
That is what Islam understands and it's what Islam fears.
