GZ, The countries supplying the terrorists must be held responsible. As long as the terrorists feel they can continue without consequence against their homeland and families, they will act with impunity. Consider the change in dynamics. Out of a perverse sense of duty, many Muslim immigrants in the US are silently complicit and fail to come forth with useful information. If they were to see terrorists as a direct threat to the security of their own homeland, some would become quite eager to report the treachery being preached in their Mosques and schools. This would in turn make it nearly impossible for terrorists to plan or organize, and would put doubts in their own (pin)heads about their accomplices and even the correctness of their mass murder. The current situation is intolerably stupid. Several Arab countries openly preach hatred against Americans, Christians and Jews, and do so without consideration of consequence or fear of reprisal. Same statement holds true at many Mosques located in America. Mutually assured destruction may not be pretty, but it is a lot more sane than the current policy of wishful thinking and hoping that a generation of 500 million trained American haters since birth will all behave. A few bombs on the Khadaffi house sure changed his view of the world. I'm not a big fan of Reagan, but at least he had the cajones to do what was necessary.
