First we have to get our damn media out of our military's business. Terrorists don't need spy networks, they just need cable tv. But everyone's so trigger happy to be the first to expose some great evil that the US is doing, no one stops to think that they might be hurting our cause over there. The fact of the matter is that war is a nasty terrible thing, and until the last 40 years or so the general public was sheltered from all of the bad things that go on. Now everyone is almost to the point of saturation with war time coverage.
Secondly, I think we need to model our efforts after the Isrealis. If anyone knows how to survive over there its them. If they can fight off the rest of the middle east by themselves, then think of what we could do. Of course they are reminded about every month or so why they are fighting because its their neighbors that are getting blown up on busses and in the mall and coffee shops. While America is patriotic only when its convenient.
