If you compare terror groups to organized crime, your approach would be akin to blowing up Chicago to catch a few mobsters.


What if it's not a few mobsters, but 50,000 mobsters, and they run the entire state of Illinois, and control the government and the police and the judiciary completely?

Like I said, things change with scale, and it's very important to accurately assess the size of the problem.

Iran sends Hizbullah hundreds of millions of dollars every year. We are talking about armies, not a few mobsters.
