I don't think a despot like Putin needs to like any American president.<br /><br />Getting back to my rebuttal, Muslim sympathy is a good thing. Muslims are people, most wouldn't hurt a fly, and there are a billion of them on the planet. They're not going to all be killed, they're not going to all be converted. They might be reformed, and that's the best we can hope for and the precedent that you have with all those violent Christians hundreds of years ago. <br /><br />So yes, their sympathy is good. Yes, their religion is (in present form) toxic. And yes, most of them abroad hold to certain toxic values. <br /><br />But again, your choices are either kill, convert or reform. Reform is the most sensible way. <br /><br />And only sympathy from them is what's in our president's power to lead them to it. The other ways won't work and will just lead to disaster.
