If they're only slitting priests throats, we say "defeat" them.
If they completely behead a priest, then can we say "exterminate"?

I've lost my latest revision of the PC dictionary.

Sure if you want to be just like them.

If I wanted to be just like them, I'd be slitting priest's throats and screwing little junior jihadi soldiers in the butt to take away their humanity and throwing gays off buildings and enslaving women and disembowling concert-goers and mowing down people in the streets with trucks, wouldn't I?
I'd be advocating the slaughter of anyone who didn't believe as I did, wouldn't I?

Slaughter is slaughter, regardless of rationale. And regardless of rationale, the extermination of an adversary is both inhuman and impossible. Think of the hydra.

But if talk of extermination relieves your feelings of impotence, have at it. Just don't expect any respect or sympathy.

Oh no. I'm sorry. Please give me respect and sympathy, please!
If I can just have your respect and sympathy, I'll be happy to let the crazies continue killing indiscriminately. I won't say a word. Please!

That's not the only alternative and you know it.

Ok, I'll bite. Tell me of these alternatives that would gain your respect and sympathy. Make it something that hasn't already been tried, because what's already been tried has not worked.

The current administration seems to agree that exterminating is the answer, as they don't try to capture any, just drone 'em. And they tend to release those that were previously taken in.

Not necessarily. You might just advocate nuking them 'till they glow.....

Really?

That's the best you've got?

No PC at all. I was just pointing out how Whell walked back his previous rhetoric when it served his purpose.
