Re: Are you sure, Scott
<that this war will reduce either the number or the anger level of radicals who hate the US?
Well, we've reduced the number by a quite a few already. If the radicals keep pouring into Iraq where we can get at them, the number may go down even more.
Maybe we won't ever get rid of all the radicals, but with luck we may make them a lot more careful about pissing us off. For some reason, sanctions, nasty diplomatic letters, and stern U.N. resolutions don't seem to have that effect on psychotic killers.
