So Ted Cruz's response to this is to call for more tolerance... for civilian deaths.
Needless to say, this is exactly the kind of bull shit we don't need politicians saying right now. But, hey, it'll play to his right wing base, so he went there anyway. This is almost as insane as Ben Carson hinting at drone strikes on illegal immigrants, so I wouldn't be surprised if his poll numbers go up.

Quote: We must immediately recognize that our enemy is not ‘violent extremism.’ It is the radical Islamism that has declared jihad against the west.
