let me see if I understand... we wage war, we kill Moslems bearing weapons, we chase them into the hills, we kill them as they hide in mountains, we confiscate their money, we close down their charity fronts abroad, we coordinate InterPol efforts, we force their former allies to give them up, we coerce other peaceful Moslem nations to cooperate or be labeled terrorists, we use foreign soil for military bases, we expect no backlash, commerce flows unimpeded, the economy recovers, we drop the kids off at school, we dine at fine restaurants, we sneak in a game of tennis at the club, and at the end of the day crawl into bed with the old lady, watch a little Letterman, and finagle a toss out of her

hmmm, short sighted, I would say

wage war against medieval religious zealots
they retaliate wherever they find weakness
e.g. Israel, unprotected US vessels
the price of oil rises
they counter-attack again and again in clever ways
they dont die easily, as most virus resists
the US economic recovery is threatened
very simple

I expect these AlQaeda guys to use their brains next
and attack the USDollar, our biggest vulnerability
their success in financial markets was orders of magnitude more successful than in the commercial arenas
and they know that

good to see that top AlQ lieutenant taken
three bullets to the chest and survived
I say "give him sodium pentathol and quit farting around"
get some info out of him
pump him up for days
