Edited on Sun Aug-06-06 04:28 AM by JI7
we invaded Afghanistan because of Al Qaeda, not the government or people of the country. but because a terrorist group that is run by and consists mostly if not all by non Afghans.

but we have ended up killing many innocent Afghans who had nothing to do with the attacks on 9/11. but we haven't been able to do much in stopping those who attacked us.

Israel attacks into Lebanon because of Hezbollah which attacks them but they have mostly killed innocent people and not done much to stop those who have actually attacked and continue to attack them.

and all of this points to the failure in fighting terrorism. the problem with the method used.

1. The method sucks
But they'll keep using it for the same reason some people keep writing checks when they've got no money in their accounts.
