Appeasement has been tried time andtime again. It has proven to be a sure fire means to failure. The only way to win a war on terrorism is to kill all of the people willing to kill innocents in the name of some fanatical cause.
Wether they are IRish or Islamists they need to be rooted out and killed. There are no gaurentees that it will be cheap or easy and no one on the US side of this fight has claimed it would be. From the Day President Bush announced the War on Terror and in his state of the Union speaches he has reminded us that it is going to be costly (especially if our allies refuse to help in the war and sit idly by) and a long process. You cannot give these terrorists what they want, simply because what they want is to rule the world.
Thats my unsurprising take on the issue.
