Read about the Marshall Plan. A form of what the US did in Europe was also done in Japan. Getting Japan back on its own feet with the appropriate expansionism cut out was the only way for the US to proceed. We don't like perpetual babysitting. hmm...maybe this is another difference between the US and European thinking. They can't imagine that a country outside Europe can take of care of themeselves. > > >> The Islamic extremists do not ever intend to clean up their >> messes.

How about you >provide a cite ? An author to read is Bernard Lewis. His books are short. You might try to read: A History of the Arab Peoples; Albert Hourani;belknap Press, 1991 The Middle East, A History; Sydney Nettleton Fisher; Knopf, 1967 Islam and Politics; John L.

To escape from the very strict to make money; capitalism does that for people. Now learn about old fashioned rules about banking in the books I listed. /BAH

The difficulty lies in the distance between the "mistaken assumption" bit and what it is that's mistaken. See if this rewrite suits your idea as I think it does. [rewrite of BAH theme] In a historical context, war has been defined as two highly organized groups, each funded and supplied by recognized governments, meet on a field somewhere and shoot at each other. More recent wars carry forward the same concept with the adoption of WMD's and other distance killing. I'm trying to address the mistaken assumption that conflicts of any other nature have to be treated as criminal and apply a country's criminal law to each individual. Formal warfare has progressed far beyond our earlier definitions and must grow to include the new realities. [end rewrite of BAH theme]

So a conflict with them is going to be done using new sets of rules of engagement. /BAH
