So no, I don't think it's lack of 'nerve' as much as our inherent decency and tradition of fair play .. the exact traits the maggots think they can use against us forever.
Given what's happening in Libya et al, come the next 9.11 or similar, I'd be expecting a big jump in unexplained 'disappearances' of domestic jihadi symps.
Throughout history, there is always a tipping point.
