Hi Sig; Re: "Putting a persons name to the enemy (Osama Bin Ladin, Saddam) as we do makes any Terrorist that emulates those people fear that if we know his name will we send the entire fleet of carriers and 300000 troops just hunt down a single person- HIM alone One man."

Israel has been hunting down and killing terrorist leaders in the region for most of 50 years and their experience has been steadily increasing terrorism.

There seems to be a pretty general consensus that Osama is in Pakistan, in the Pushtun hill country near the Afghan border. I don't see any fleets or armies headed that way.

These guys aren't stupid. There are places we won't invade, and they know it.
