Million Man Army Argument

Islamist terrorists do not stand in formation wearing the same uniform. Tens, perhaps hundreds of thousands of terrorists are prepared for martyrdom at the first chance to kill Westerners, or any other people group who do not agree with their ideology. We must not lull ourselves to sleep as we watch our jets, drones, ships and armies show of force. We are fighting an enemy in many ways more advanced in murder than Hitler ever was. The 21st Century wars are different than the 20th Century wars; but they are much more dangerous. Do not take comfort that our new enemies do not wear uniforms or stand in formation!
