TYT: 'Hiroshima' Tactics for 'Total War' on Islam - U.S. Military Documents Exposed



Via Wired: "The U.S. military taught its future leaders that a "total war" against the world's 1.4 billion Muslims would be necessary to protect America from Islamic terrorists, according to documents obtained by Danger Room. Among the options considered for that conflict: using the lessons of "Hiroshima" to wipe out whole cities at once, targeting the "civilian population wherever necessary." The course, first reported by Danger Room last month and held at the Defense Department's Joint Forces Staff College, has since been canceled by the Pentagon brass. It's only now, however, that the details of the class have come to light...".* Michael Shure (host of TwenTYTwelve) and comedian Jimmy Dore break it down on The Young Turks.

This isn't a college that opens minds to new ideas, this is the military where they are trained to obey. (I remember complete morons / fanatics teaching classes in the military, and pointing out logical fallacies to them was not discouraged - it wasn't allowed. Worse than nuns, those bastards were.)

This ideology is dangerous to the country and mirrors Bin Laden's. The nuts on Fox always demand that Muslims denounce their crazies, we need to do the same.
