<<<You mean the enemy is hard to find physically ,or an enemy is hard to identify? Who or what is the enemy? Try to be specific. Sorry I cant be very specific as they are too varied and dispersed to be named. The CIA could give you some names. Some examples would be: The man trying to bring explosives across the Canadian border. The shoe bomber who was prevented from disabling an airplane. Those who launched missiles at a civilian Israeli jet.And all the people who purposefully supported and funded those types. Those who are trying to set off explosives in Spain, France, and the UK to discourage those countries from staying in Iraq or staying on good terms with the US. But we cant cover them all, and with limited resources will have to concentrate on the founders, the leaders, the funding provided by organizations like the Al Qaeda or the Taliban. Where military assets can be employed. We also have to abide by certain rules and restraints which terrorists can ignore. So even if we have enemies in Spain, France, or Saudi Arabia we wont be sending in special forces and will count on them to handle the problems. Note also that we dont want to kill the enemy- it is far better to capture, question and bring them to an appropriate justice. Sig@partialanswers.com
