And to answer to SeeHund,you are the kind to believe the official version. I hope you are right buddy.
So times you do something just because it makes you feel better, regardless of how effective or how much of a footprint it will make.
Never be true? I don't know about that. But yeah, I don't trust governments...
In our era, I believe that we have every right to be paranoiac.
Big_Z, I agree with you, and this is why I say that the victory wont come from the military... It will be a political victory.
There will be no peace without equality. We live in a world under a western dominance... Then, Western powers will be attacked until they are destroyed or until balance is restored between the white man and the the others...
We behave like a Westerner's life is worth 10.000 lives? Then, they are ready to sacrifice 1000 men to get one of our people...
And they dont feel guilty, because they still think that they give 10 times more value to life than their enemies...
This is the story. We have the power to deal with the dictators and other corrupt people and criminals... And we are doing nothing about it.
I think the main objective should be to make these international problems local problems. That is, the footprint of the US must get lighter and the involvement of friendly local forces must get heavier. It's very easy for terrorists and whatnot to get people behind them if they are seen as fighters against a "foreign oppressor." It's much harder for them to do this against a local government, especially if the victims of their attacks are mostly locals.
