”…targeting the core of terrorism rather than fanning the flames of terrorism.”

While I do not think we should let our defenses down and that we should continue to stand up to terrorism where we find it, I agree that we should not provoke extremism. It is important instead to instill trust in the hearts of our own people and in those would be adversaries, in the noble human condition that is a worthy goal for the coming global society. This is the only way to diffuse a now ticking time bomb of world cataclysm.
