I completely agree with you, although I doubt it will stop an attack if Bush really pushes for it. At the risk of starting a HUGE debate, I sometimes question the real motives for the Dubya administrations "interest" in the Middle East. I understand the need to remove terrorist factions, but feel that we are going about it all the wrong ways. I guess it must be handy to have a US friendly gov't in Afghanistan now, though.
No, I think the US needs to be a little more patient and less forceful. Sooner or later the mouse will come out of the hole, if it figures the cat's gone. Know what I mean?
