I think this analogy is somewhat valid when applied to our new buddies in the ME. We have to understand why this is happening and fix that. Not use the ol' "kill them all and let god sort 'em out" philosophy. They'll keep coming.

I think it is more important to try and understand why these acts occur. I don't think it's a simple as "freedom" or "their religion compels them to do it".

Actually, I kill ants with poison. And, it works.

I doubt we could ever appease them enough to leave us alone. Let the bully in grade school... You give a quarter, next day he'll want a dollar.
