Islam in Europe: perception and reality

[Heat]

Which usually achieves quite the opposite of what your goal is. If someone were to bomb my family and friends to smitherins, to call them collaterals, I would consider joining the enemy of my enemy also. It's a first class PR strategy, just like running a recruitment office for ISIS or any other given group fighting the west.

How high is the conversion rate? We actually do a lot to minimize collatoral damage and when that does tragically occur, we try to do something for the family and explain to them our intention. Do our enemies do that? Nope.

Oh okay, so we can go bomb a family and show up at the house greeting the lucky survivors whilst their mourning their loved ones and just be like

"Hey I know we just killed your son and all but do you want some money, like cash or something? What? Why aren't you welcoming us in with open arms? Hey listen here lady we're the good guys okay, we don't have to offer cash but we are doing it simply out of the goodness of our hearts. I would never stoop to the level of our enemies. I mean we're not MONSTERS!"

I mean I did my best to imagine a scenario but it's just too ridiculous a claim for me to realistically imagine it. The thought that we can kill innocent lives, but help out the families of whom we've killed members of as if we are the good guys, and expect instant forgiveness is literally insane. That we can bomb a country to shit but if we simply go down to the country after the fact and clean up the mess WE CREATED it makes it all right, and how dare anyone compare us to the likes of ISIS, clearly we are way above that. Disgusting mentality. I doubt you mean the things you claim, but the implied value of human life being substituted for financial or some other form of aid as equal pay is a disgraceful disregard for human kind.
