We've never tried to stop terrorism before, just supported those that have been victims of it, worldwide.
Now, it's a different movie on TV...and I don't think the terrorists ever bargained for the shit stew they will be eating for the next few years. I hope they choke on it.

And your post proves your ignorance. For some absurd reason Americans equate motivation with that which is justified. That's why you don't hear any talk about what possibly could have led these terrorists to commic such an atrocious act. Instead you get shit like, "Mr. bin laden is a man who is an evil man" or "This was a senseless act of cowardice by an evildoer". What bullshit!
One can eaily have a motivation without a justification. In Camus' L'etranger, the outsider kills an arab because the sun made him do it. That's a motivation but in no way does it justify what he did (unless he is tried by Judge Gary). You will never have any success stopping terrorism unless you get in the terrorists' heads and try to comprehend what led them to commit such acts. And contrary to popular ignorance, you can do this without justifying the acts themselves.
