You make several good points, Roger -- but I didn't seen any viable

If we aren't to fight back, for fear of creating more terrorists, what are
we to do?


Excellent question. Most experts agree that one of the biggest efforts we
should be making is to not only continue to rebuild, but most importantly,
start social reform programs. We need to be spending money educating the
uneducated. Their most powerful weapon is ignornance. It's the same
weapon that Christian (e.g. Catholic) churches used for hundreds of years.
Breed ignorant, uneducated masses and they are yours to control.
Education on world events, religion, world economy, domocracy and politics
are the weapons which will win the long-war. This is THE weapon and THE
long-view that the fundimentalist are using. It needs to be our weapon
too.
