Tex,
Even you can't be this naive. Terrorism is a military tactic. We don't have to use it, because we have fighter bombers, ICBMs and nuclear missiles.
Do you think Iraq or Bin Laid-To-Rest would have bothered with hijackings if they had access to ICBMs?
These people are striking at us the best way they know how. To the limits of the capabilities. They aren't choosing these tactics because they want a crowd.
If they could totally destroy Israel, don't you think they would?
Best one yet ...
Of Course, you are actually making my argument from another thread, where I asserted that we should Nuke these people, because if they were capable if a nuclear retaliation they would have already used it.
But that has nothing to do with what I am talking about. The question I addressed was, why were countries like Switz., Zurich, ect, not attacked.
