YES they can still strike- like Rumsfeld said- they have a distinct advantage of only having to be right once, but we must be right EVERY single time in order to prevent an attack- the attacker who hides behind hte skirts of women and chilren, and disguises themselves as ordinary citizens ALWAYS has a huge advantage over a conventional army- however, do not mistake isolated attacks as a sign of our defeat or of losing- We've done very well against htem-

It goes both ways. In going after bin Laden or Mullah, we only have to be right once. They have to be right every single time to stay alive. It's not all that asymmetrical at all.

well true- When we face them there- was kinda thinking more in terms of defending our country here against hteir attacks (Yes, I know my post didn't state that- My fingers don't type what I'm thinking unfortunately lol)
