re: I think you are right, that's a necessary condition for winning (probably not sufficient), but I don't think this country is ready for it.

You don't think this country is ready to kill al Qaeda? Hell, we've killed over 10,000 Iraqi civilians, probably close to the total number of al Qaeda, maybe a little short. But those folks didn't do anything except try to survive. Many woman and kids.

The tendency to blow threats way out of proportion. al Qaeda, especailly their leadership, is smart and sophisticated enough to hit us at home. Most of the other Muslim "Jihadists" are local guys, doing local stuff. No threat to us. Otherwise, maybe they might have pulled something off here. But... nothing. Get al Qaeda. Hello, they are not in Iraq!

Why you guys want to make this some kind of world religious war, the next Crusades, is beyond me.
