" outright attack does seem to have some practical utility." Yes,but only if you go by the concept that I must threaten to shoot you if you don't do what I say.Some might call it overkill,others may say, " Hey,whatever works is fine with me ". The problem is as I suggested.Eventually this becomes the norm and it loses its shock factor, not to mention perpetually upsetting the International Community. This is the SAME International Community the US is relying upon for the ongoing war on terror.That's my point on that BBM. Some look at results - some look back at the means to attain those results and become suspect of future manifestations that follow the same line. I don't buy the " we were scaring them into submission " line myself.I believe they had it wrong from the outset. Either way, the damage is done on the International Stage, and it will take some fancy footwork to get folks to buy tickets for the next act without changes in the script. AGAIN -- JMO
