What we need to do is set up a "special tactics" force that really
works. That is, we identify the terrorists, then we take then out. No
if's ands or buts. We don't need to bomb cities. Just send in a good
assassination team and be done with it. Airplanes and cruise missles
have "USA" written all over them, but a damned good assassination
squad is as anonomous as these damned terrorists.

History lessons: British Red Coats fighting in American's back yard.
American Soldiers fighting in the jungles of vietnam. etc. You cannot
win a gorilla war with a large army and manouvers. You have to fight
"fire with fire", especially when the counties that protect the
terrorists can deny any direct involvement while aiding and abieting
their autrocities.

I don't like the idea of killing people, but I like the idea of being
killed even less. I don't want to be afraid for my children. To that
end, I am pursuaded that action needs to be taken.
