Japan - it did work, but only because the Emperor said no more. The generals could have care less that two cities were in ruin. They were committed to fight to the end. So, if the Emperor hadn't said no, then the fight would have continued...and we would have had to invade. But, the Emperor cared for the people.

Now, take out a city. Fallujah... Wipe it out. Do you honestly think that will make the terrorists stop? Make them see the light of day? No, it won't because they don't care what happens to their citizenery. In the terrorist conclaves and organization, there is no Emperor. They will continue to fight...

Be anger... be fit to be tied... be red hot with rage...but fight with intelligence. And we are fighting, and we are winning...

That's why the terrorists have resorted to this type of tactic. It's one of the few option opened to them. And it saps the will... Spain was defeated with a bomb. Wiping out Mecca would not stop the terrorists. They hide in shadows because it is hard to detect them in the shadows... but we are fighting, and we are winning...and they know it.
