He is right, we have to start fighting this war according to their culture not according to ours, what we consider mercy they consider weakness.
Under Obama years any education of Islamic history or culture was erased. Our military and civilian decision makers no longer know enough about it to make informed decisions. This was by design.
I expected PT to bring back that education, bring back Maj. Coughlin, Raymond Ibrihem, Robert Spenser. That has not happened, which is a disappointment.
They may be consulted by they won’t be brought back on active in the military or hired as a full time consultant unless a major war breaks out. They have built new careers and the probability that they would the Dems would be fighting everything they do means that they won’t be called back.
There options are limited, either leave us alone, limit their attacks to Iraqi and other Islamic targets or have drones and bombs land on important people and buildings. They are openly calling for the destruction of the US and fighting a proxy war on us. That makes them and their leaders legitimate military targets.
“Cultural centers” are what they call the mansions of the Islamic Republic’s elite. Sounds less elitest than palaces or – well, mansions. I have no doubt that’s what PTrump meant, a message to Twisted-Ragheads that was personal: I can get you where you live.
Then it was re-translated to Arabic (and Farsi, for all I know) as literally “cultural centers” – lost the local “mansion” usage altogether. And that linguistic jujitsu made PTrump look like a barbarian.
That’s a masterly bit of dezinformatsiya.
There’s a lot of that going around, both ways. But mostly stupid +/- malicious rumor-mongers.

These seem to be their contemplated options.
Sorry not much meat in this sandwich. Just talk.
