Jan. 1 Attack By CIA Killed Two Leaders Of Al-Qaeda

Everything we've done since all this began has strengthened our enemy, rather than weakening it.
That is because our enemy is merely an ideology, an ideology which hinges- at least in part- on the premise that Americans are arrogant, oppressive, and stupid.
Nothing we've done since those towers fell has indicated otherwise.
Everything we've done is exactly what "terrorists"- islamic extremists- want us to do.
Everything we do, have done, or can do, as a military presence in the middle east, strengthens their position and brings them more support.
Clearly, it is time to regroup.

Agreed.
We have radicalized and caused a generation of hate towards the west.
The best we can do now is try to mend those bridges.

This isn't a conventional war but a ideological and PR one and hell, Al Qaeda has won all it wanted to achieve.

This is a great post. Thank you, 10. Let's hope that Obama and his team can lead the US on a better tack.

I'd be more pissed at people who claim the same religion as me hiding behind my house launching attacks from my schools, shooting rockets from my churches....


that's who I would blame.

It's not over. People need to figure out that Al Qaeda brings American troops. When they do, they will police their own to ensure we don't come. Al Qaeda will have no refuge.

I wouldn't have even reacted with violence.
Invading a country and toppling a government wouldn't have even been on my options list

I would? actually I'd probably drag the terrorists who are launching rockets from my shed out into the street and hang them as a warning to all of them that this is what happens when you bring your little jihad to my schools, towns, churches, backyards........

You wouldnt? what would you do with the terrorists using your family as a shield?>

If my family was killed as a result of foreign soldiers invading it. I'd be wanting blood of the soldiers and country, honest truth.

what about them terrorists using you as a shield? how long would you give them quarter?

Seriously, you say killing these savages is bad, what is your solution

How would i have reacted if i was leading UK?
I would not have helped US in Iraq. Sounds heartless but i think Iraq did nothing but increase terrorism.
I would have strengthened the moderates within ME rather than giving the fanatics a reason to hate the west even more.
