France is vowing a ruthless response.
To do what? Incite another terrorist attack? I mean, that's why IS attacked France in the first place.
How about a measured response? How about a response that pushes away the emotion from losing people and takes into account that IS is made up of people, people that are joining on a daily basis? Joining because they have seen their OWN families killed. Joining because they feel increasingly marginalized by a world that labels Muslims terrorists, regardless of the evidence.
This anti-Islamic culture that occurs in all "civilized" countries has to stop. Because you know who committed these acts? An army. Who yeah, are made up of Muslims, but does that mean that it was Christians who attacked people in Afghanistan by the US army?
No, Islam is not the enemy.
Hate is the enemy.
Hate is what we need to fight.
And you know what fights hate?
I'll give you a hint. It's not hate.
Hate does nothing but create more hate. Like how the US knocked out Al Qaeda with hate after 9/11...right?
No, what fights hate is love and light. And today, and everyday, I pledge to stand with France in love and support and I pledge not to hate those who are not connected, because if I turn the other cheek. If I pledge my love, they do not win today. Or tomorrow. They will never win if I am committed to love.
