Assuming this is post-9/11 and pre-Afghan occupation, what steps would you have taken to combat terrorism? It seems that not many people have consolidated their views on the subject. Short of pulling out the Middle East entirely and giving into the insane demands of the terrorists (paying Iraq reparations for sanctions, abandoning Israel), most of the isolationists have not thought about what would happen if the fight was brought to our doorstep, anyway.

So, what should we have done? Convinced France and Russia to give up interest in the benefits Iraq has been providing them with? Should we have invaded Afghanistan at all? Share your thoughts.
