>>I think it is important for the U.S. to realize that this is not an Afghanistan problem. It is not even just a problem of current terrorist cells. If you breathe in asbestos or some other nasty carcinogen from your environment, chances are that you will get cancer. A surgeon can come in and remove the cancerous cells. But if you continue the exposure to the carcinogen, the cancer will return, and ultimately, it will prevail. << So I suppose it would appear then, that success of our "campaign" against terrorists will be measured only by what "doesn't happen". We will go forward watching our backs, looking over our shoulders, erosion our personal freedoms, waiting for the next shoe to drop, since there will be no way of quantifying our "victory". We will know for "certain" if we fail though. I'd say score one very large victory for the terrorists.
