Don - these knee jerk reactions is exactly what AQ wants and exactly what causes the problems to escilate.

We have helped cause the problem, we have helped make the problem worse, our tactics we use at the moment CLEARLY do NOT work. Tell those killed today that our tactics of crash and burn and invasion work. We need a rational discussion about all the issues and new tactics of specific targeted attack not invasion of whole bloody countries and inflaming the situation.

No one denies that AQ is a horrible organisation - I agree with you - but we cannot simply think more of the same by us will solve the situation it will not.
