What I find interesting is that when it comes to education, health care, or other problems, people love to say "throwing money at the problem won't solve it". Yet when it comes to military issues, then they are all in favor of throwing money at the problem. Could it be that the solution to the problem of terrorism is one that does not require spending more money every year?

And regarding the question about whether you would feel comfortable living in the Mafia Boss's house, you missed that analogy entirely.

Like I said, security is 90% based on your bahavior, and maybe 10% (or less) based on your strength. It doesn't matter how strong you are.....if you go around bullying people, you are not going to be very secure.

And like I said, countries like New Zealand or Finland haven't had any problems with terrorism. I guess they must have some great military strength...right?
