“Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called children of God.”

“More than 60 Islamic leaders and imams – from France, Belgium, Britain, Tunisia, and of different Islamic faiths – in a move that may be unprecedented, are touring Europe to denounce Islamic terrorism and to pay homage to the victims of terror in Europe by visiting many of the sites of terror attacks.”

Now what’s needed is for the government of Saudi Arabia to stop subsidizing the haters.
 
Yes! I think our government should stop choosing sides among the various contending denominations of Islam in the ME. Their disagreements with each other are not our disagreements. Their disagreements with each other have to do with religion and politics that should not concern us.

Our interests should be only the defeat of terrorism. Regarding the terrorist attempting to set up operations in the ME, in my humble opinion, we should very selectively support efforts to fight terrorist by providing technical support and advice to local, regional forces. However, the protection of American advisors should be coordinated with the full force of the American military in the most effective and economical ways possible. We should also strive to protect innocent, at-risk populations. As far as I can tell, this is pretty much what is happening.

Beyond supporting the fight against terrorism and protecting the innocent, our government should remain neutral. Our government certainly should not be promoting any American financial interests whatsoever- not energy interests, not military industrial interests. Our government needs to FOCUS on the most important interest of all - the one that concerns every American - the defeat of those who practice terrorism. Anything else is a costly distraction at best.
 
I will pray for the safety of these Imams as they travel across Europe.
