"Boots on the ground," huh?
Has anybody noticed that Islam has many more "boots on the ground" in the West than vice-versa?We find many, many more mosques, centers of "Islamic learning," halal butcheries, etc., in the West than we find churches, synagogues, etc., in the Muslim world. While the UN and the world go into paroxysms of rage when a few Jews build houses in the "Occupied Territories," because, of course, Jews have no right to live among Muslims, literally millions of Muslims have and continue to move into Europe and other Western countries. The Muslim world murders and drives into exile Jews and Christians from their ancient homes, but the West must accept millions of Muslim "refugees" and migrants.

Your Say
DM has written the truth, but I have to say I'm glad to see the phrase, "boots on the ground," in scare quotes. It is a term I envision coming from somebody like Hillary Clinton - derisive and obscurant. They are feking troops; military force. They are deployed to war zones and dictate the outcomes of policy, if any such exists. If no political will does exist, then it is a chaos of broken sh!t and cool explosions.
When a pundit or politician says "boots on the ground," it is like the fuck you of statecraft.
