It would seem that you've not noticed the rather large number of men
and women who valued our principles more highly than their personal
survival - and the lesser (but still awesomely large) number who did
not, in fact, survive - all so that you and I might live in what you
so casually refer to as "fantasyland".
If you choose to discard our fundamental principles in favor of some
hoped-for longevity; most will understand - and I would guess that
most will also be ashamed for you.
It is not a "fundamental principle" that we roll over and play dead
for combatants hiding behind civilian garb. It is not a "fundamental
principle" that such individuals be extended the benefits of our
social contract. It is not a "fundamental principle" that such
individuals should be entirely free of duress, discomfort, and even
intimidation. Only in the degenerate lexicon of the New Intellectual
are these "principles" of any sort. And *I* and thoroughly ashamed
of *them* - the people that insist I commit suicide and then try to
hide behind some perverse and malignant reinterpretation of Liberty
to suit their ideological stupidities. You do not negotiate with
Evil, you crush it to death with extreme violence so that the crushing
is quick and complete. But our fine New Intellectual degenerates
cannot even utter the notion that Evil even exists. They're too busy
trying to rehabilitate child predators, terrorist, despots, and fools.
Your premises are lousy and your conclusions correspondingly worse.
