Default Re: Terrorists

Yeah "war on terrorism" is like the "war on drugs" or the "war on poverty". More of a soundbite for the media than a real war. Nothing ever stops anything. But if we gave in to that pessimism then there would be no laws, no fences, no locks on doors, no immunization shots, no copy protecton, etc etc.

To think you are going to stop anything, by any means, is automatically a way to get depressed by failures. The reality is "as hard as possible, for as many as possible, for as long as possible". But thats just a mouthful. I think the efforts to do that have improved 900% in the last few years.
