Get in touch with reality. Random acts of violence does not stop terrorism. It IS terrorism, and it BREEDS new terrorists. Fighting terrorist must be done with intelligence and well targeted actions, not with excess violence.
Whoever succeeds GWB (now or in 4 more years) already has plenty to worry about. The Iraq situation is not getting much better and Iraq may well become the next Afganisthan; a breeding ground for terrorists.
Maybe I was being a little dramatic as to what we need to do. But I'm sure the intelligence agencies of not only America but Europe have a good idea of where these terrorists are. I'd rather see us use a few MOAB bombs in that no-man's land in Pakistan than see more American soldiers at risk. I know in this election year, Bush would love to have Bin Laden handed to him on a silver platter before the elections. I'd just not have to have so many American lives attached to that platter. I'd rather see a dead Bin Laden than more caskets with American flags draped over them. We're getting enough of them killed in Iraq as it is.
These are not deserted regions Greg. There is several Million people living in those borderlands. Most are hard working people trying their best to make a decent living and who don't give a f. about international politics. You can be sure the people you want to get with your MOABs are the ones most well protected and the Last ones to go

Primitive, excuse my ignorance. All I've heard of the place comes from the news, mostly from talk radio, and from the way they describe it, that area is a haven for criminals, miscreants and terrorists. That's why I say we should bomb the place. But if there are innocent civilians living there, then maybe we can do some pinpoint precision bombing that would cause little collateral damage, once we get the information that is need for where Bin Laden and his cronies are hiding out at.
