re: #484 Cato the Elder

Which is why “killing people until they stop trying to kill you” doesn’t work here. It’s not the German army and nation we’re fighting, but an underground network, decentralized, scattered, incognito, invisible. Bombing the shit out of some town or other, or a whole series of towns in succession, will not stop al Qaeda.

Of course it works (see 475). Why do you so fear a rag tag bunch of 7th century retards? Terrorism is a cowardly act perpetrated by bullies. Bullies are cowards who only bully when they feel safe to do so. As in Iraq, when the the leaders no longer feel safe they quit trying to kill us.

Are you suggesting we throw our hands up and cower under our beds until Achmed shows up to relieve us of our heads? You’re quick to say what won’t work, what will? More of Obama prostrating himself before the world?
