Ohh lord.... I did not even expect this level of ignorance....

How do you fight a war against an invisible enemy? By killing their remote relatives?? And you don't think that would enforce and motivate the terrorists ?? Good grief, You don't know a lot of terrorism do you ? If you have deepened into the conflicts like nortern ireland IRA, nothern spain ETA, Isreal - palestinian conflict. You would know that this does not help a bit, and that every counter attack would induce more violence.

So I suppose you would have suggested to nuke northern spain, northern ireland and isreal and libanon, totally ignoring that their network stretches far further than that geographical place.
You appearantly know that the majority of al-qaida networks are scattered accross europe and other parts of the world.
