Incidentally, Marak, revenge will not prevent this from happening again. I've got news for you. They don't have to get through our borders. They're already here. And revenge from us is only going to cause more American deaths within American borders when the hidden cells strike back.
This is going to be ugly, no matter how we do it. It's going to be a battleground not far removed from the guerilla warfare of Vietnam, only not all of the battlegrounds will be across the world from us. Some of them will be in our backyards. And we are going to war now...it's definite.
The problem with "taking out Bin Laden" is that it's not going to send the message that people maintain it will. Sure, a few terrorist groups will be on their toes for a while. But we cannot eradicate terrorism anymore than the War on Drugs eradicated drugs in the USA. It just doesn't work. So thousands more people are going to die, and in the end, we'll get our revenge on Bin Laden...but at too high a cost.
