re: "root causes"
IMHO, terrorism is like a cancer. Once it is there it is too late for preventive medicine and it should be taken out so the healing might begin. Just quitting smoking is very unlikely to help at this stage....

Joe, <I don't subscribe to the "root causes" theory. ... The "root causes" theory will prescribe a bottomless pit where to throw the money with promise of results in a generation or two.>

Well said, Joe. Your post illustrates how futile it is to debate over "root causes" while the terrorists continue to defy their logic.


Tenchusatsu, what happens to root causes after the terrorists have been killed or split and all that's left is the people?
