More Americans are dying of the flu and heart disease than have died from Terrorist attacks... let's get some perspective.
Fighting fire with fire *never* solves the problem. It either a) escalates the conflict or b) puts the conflict off for another day.
The only way terrorism is going to be defeated is if the terrorists have no reason to attack us (in other words there will probably always be terrorism). A war on terrorism is like a war on drugs... it cannot be won because there is noone to fight.
Sure you can stick your finger in the proverbial dyke and increase security at home but that is relatively ineffective. There is always another crack and we only have so many fingers.
