If it were obvious, we wouldn't be in the position we're now in. Its only obvious if you apply logic. <g> Suppose for a moment that those in charge WANTED a military approach and were willing to fabricate and cherry-pick evidence to support the case for it. The questions we'd need to ask next would take us in a very different direction. You suggested that the warring party wouldn't have to be a nation, but then dropped rather than develop that notion. You'd have us declare war on an individual, or a group of individuals? I suppose we do have the Noriega precedent, but isn't that a bit like using a sledgehammer to drive in a tack? Should we not at least have a list of variations and special procedures for AQ? Logically speaking, yes. Seems to me that logic has not been the driving force in this "War on Terror".
