Lindy,

Your debate with John shines an important light on the stakes in the Islamists War. If the US does not succeed in Friedman's term, "stopping the export of undeterables", the American way of life and presumed freedoms will be permanently damaged. If another group gets into the US and executes a large attack, the use of profiling will rise exponentially. The slight intolerance of Muslim-Americans will explode into hatred. Immigration policy will stiffen. Police survaillence of the general population will increase. The threat of regular terrorist attacks demands that a country defend itself. The US will either take the war to them or they will bring it to the US.
