Good points. But, we're dealing with individuals, not nations. Look back at those you listed. They have faces, borders, and cities. Our enemy is a religion of individuals. How do we fight them, absent a continual guerilla campaign, worldwide?

BTW, I like how you fly straight up while accelerating, but I'm just a MiG21.

The "campaign" starts at home. Selectively deport individuals who in the least are suspected or tied to any number of radical Islamic groups operating in America; Deport ALL illegals, re-register US worker applicants for as long as it takes, and declare a moritorium on ALL official immigration for a period of five years until the INS can extricate their heads from their lower orifice. If the politicians at this point cannot put US security ahead of political correctness, then we are indeed doomed no matter what.

BTW, I not only can "fly straight up while accelerating", but am so armed that I can even shoot Milk Duds or drop water-ballons if I wanted. Hmmm, a MiG21? I hear they're in the garage too much ;-)
