It is not unreasonable, rather logical, to think that if you liberate someone, then they are completely free. They are free to bury themselves, chain themselves, create a huge capitalistic empire, sell cow dung. If we limit that, they are not free.

I would concur.....If our only purpose was to liberate them. Does not this fly in the face of your earlier arguments?
If our intended purpose was remove the current regime and allow them self determination and free will..........(at the risk of being redundant) then why are we still there, in force.
Our goal is to establish a functioning democracy in that part of the world and more specifically in a country we are attempting to liberate. There should be little doubt, that left to their "self determination" they would become a nation under Sharia. And as proposed earlier F**k things us and sell cow dung!
I agree completely that this might be a exercise in futility!
Read the signature line of TS's post. And this creep is an American! I also defer to the posts on "ARe we at war with Islam". Frightening stuff! Establishing a Democracy in Iraq seems like a better choice than having to employ a scorched earth policy in defeating this threat.
Somethings I have learned while participating in this thread:
1. There are some really really bright people I have unwittingly tried to debate here.
2. I see things as Black and White......must be a cultural thing.......May I see your driver's license and registration Sir!
3. I find myself preoccupied with this discussion.
4. I find myself wondering (and worryinig) how TS and TR would weigh in on this.
5. I wonder if Razor is attributing my untenable position as oxygen deprivation brought about by living at ALTITUDE.
It has been engaging............but I must get back to work.............Do you know why I am pulling you over sir?

So, if you believe that that clause in the constitution does not make Islam the only source of law, what's the problem?

One Last shot over the shoulder. I do not believe that this clause does not make Islam the only source of law. I believe just the opposite and thus my ranting and raving.
And that is the problem!
