Each terrorist we kill is one less terrorist able to blow up innocent women and children. Period.

You hit the nail on the head. For every one terrorist we KILL it saves what ? 1, 2, 10, 100 .. lives ?

They are killing themselves as a result of brainwashing by "terror leaders". Isreal has abopted the policy of killing terror group leaders. The US is hunting down and killing terrorist. Even though, I don't agree with harming innocent people, I do agree that by killing the "senior" members of these terrorist groups we save many, many innocent lives.. I also beileve that initially this will spark "revenge" type attacks, but sooner than later without leadership these groups will become less and less of a threat.

Pretty much, and makes it harder for the others to carry out operations when their terrorist teammates get whacked. Possibly it even makes new recruits a bit more hesitant.

Agreed, taking out their command structure has to hurt their efforts. The "revenge" attacks would occur whether their leaders are attacked or not. It baffles me that anyone believes that peace talks and cowering from these savages would actually result in fewer attacks.

From today's news, it looks like the Palestinians have resorted to using retarded teenagers for homicide bombings. Some desperation must be creeping in.
