Some people have argued that we should have simply tried to deal with Al Qaeda through "police work" -- arresting terrorists when we found them, and not attacking Afghanistan. And certainly not Iraq. So I'm going to speculate how this would have worked.

Precisely. And, as far as I'm concerned, they escalated it to "strategic bombardment of the enemy homeland" on Day One of the war: we should not restrain ourselves from replying at least on the same level of warfare.

The creepy thing is that you are describing what the scenario will be like when there IS another attack. Between our seeming loss of will to fight and the whining from every side about how mean we are for not negotiating with these monsters, this is the quagmire we'd end up in.
My God, what has happened to my country? When did we become such pathetic cowards?

This is what bugs me the most. All the morally repugnant things done by Saddam and Islamic terrorists, and all some people can do is point to all the perceived injustices committed by America. It's very aggravating.

Which makes absolutely ZERO sense to me!

Who do the PETA jerks beat up, the little old ladies in fur, or the biker gang? They choose the one that won't kill them....
