Waco, Ruby Ridge, Kent State ... there's a few other examples... Like the 'soft' terrorist war in Latin America during the 80's & 90's, and USA-supported Pinochet during the 70's, and a few others ... whatever, we're off topic as Cesium points out.
But Duane, it's about energy, not 'democracy' or anything like that... it's greed-based action. That's the core of what's going on.
Effective action against international terrorist-guerilla action is not to conduct a military assault on a particular state, but to do traditional police leg-work. Investigation, apprehension and court, then jail.
The whole gambit of torturing alleged terrorists undermines our position -- it makes us the same as them. We don't gain anyone's trust, and therefore our actions further the cycle of violence.
Is that not obvious?
What would you do, as a Christian?
