Actually I want to rephrase a bit of that... While I would like to see us win, I don't know that we will ever be able to fully "win". I don't think you can ever get rid of terrorism.
The key is socially and politically isolate those who would use terrorism as a tool for political change. To remove the impetus that emboldens people to shift from law abiding citizens to criminal behaviour.
Here is something to think about:
When a neighbourhood is known for it's criminal activities do we just level the neighbourhood, trying not to but inevitably killing innocents? Or do we, go after those who are responsible for the crime while working within the community to institute change?
