Surely the only way to beat 'terrorists' is to crush their foundation or the support for their ideology, rather than just bombing the hell out of civilian popluations who happen to live in the same country as the terrorists.
I was just wondering whether all-out military might is the way to beat a terrorist threat. This question is not specifically aimed at the present 'war on terror', but is a general query that can be applied to any conflict between a nation and a guerrila organisation, eg, the US in Vietnam, the British in Northern Ireland etc etc.
Can I have an informed view (in simple language) please? Thanks!
