But one should face the reality that someone who has purposefully killed in the past understands what is involved in such acts, so when they earnestly say that they intend to do so again if necessary, there is a certain level of credibility. When someone who has not done so before makes the same assertion, well, in my experience, when it comes to killing another human being, no one really knows how, or even if, one will act until the time comes.

But this is not a conventional war and as I have said before we do not have success with COIN operations using conventional troops. History has proven this repeatedly. Enemy body counts is not and should not be the measurement of success. Especially in COIN where enemy strengths are an unknown. Its going to be a very costly endeavor for us at this time.

The context of the conversation was entirely serious, however, and given the background of the person, who was a former combat infantryman in the U.S. Army who has done his share of killing while in uniform, it was perfectly credible. As for him being a "dangerous, radical Musim," currently, he and his fellow religionists are of no danger to me or anyone else who just leaves them alone to live in peace. I believe them to be of considerable potential danger, however, to hardcore foreign takfiri salafists who attempt to try to threaten them into becoming terrorist supporter elemens. As for reporting him to DHS, actually, that is the wrong federal government agency to report this type of thing to. The correct federal government agency is aware, however.
