You guys just don't get it. Every time you kill one, 2 more are created. Take out a hundred, and two hundred more will join tomorrow. Keep pouring gasonline on the fire and then wonder why it never goes out. The policy blunder was not the failure to fight the terrorists. The policy blunder was creating them in the first place, and then pissing them off. Once that happened, you cannot stop the attacks unless you increase security to the point of turning the US into a police state.
