Yes. If they are terrorists and are a threat to our country.

No I don't support killing INNOCENT people to make the USA a safer place. But the "bad" ones, I say go for it. And don't forget we also kill people in the USA to make the USA a safer place. Its not an 'overseas' thing.

I'll answer your questions with questions :
Is it better to fight the ennemy at home or to bring the fight to your ennemy ?
Is it better to allow your mortal ennemy to live and grow unimpeded, or is it better to make sure he is no longer capable of killing you ?
Mortal ennemies : is there any safe level below which they do not present a lethal danger ?
> Do you support killing people overseas to make the USA a safer ( but not safe ) place to live? if you answer is Yes, is there any limit to the amount of killing you support?

The best recruiting weapon terrorist have is the US foreign policy which does not represent the values Americans hold so dearly (that's why so many people overseas hate Americans and Americans cannot understand the reason). Killing people overseas only helps to increase the hatred plus it doesn't do much. Terrorism, like drug trafficking is like the mythical hydra. You chop one of it's heads, two grow in its place. To really defeat terrorism the US needs to stop giving extremists excuses to focus their frustration on the American people most of which have no idea how government's foreign policy affects the international image of the nation.

Only if it's necessary to make us safer.
The people with whom we are at war feel that the fewer of us there are, the better off they will be. I see nothing wrong with applying that same doctrine for our own safety.
Keep in mind, we're not over there indiscriminantly killing anyone in a nightshirt; we're killing those we believe to be attacking us. We're also ARRESTING a whole lot of people.
To your second question, no, there is no limit to the amount of killing we may need in order to win this war. Was there a limit to the number of people we should've killed in World War II? You win the war. Period.

Yes, it is preferable to waiting for them to come here. So far it has worked much better than that was working. The World trade Center was attacked, the USS Cole was attacked and we did NOTHING. This gave the impression that we would continue to do NOTHING, so they attacked the World Trade Center again. What is the limit? If there are people who want to kill American civilians the American government should do all they can to prevent this. Waiting until they are on American soil is very irresponsible and will result in many more civilian deaths. Do you believe we should wait for bin Laden to step on U.S. soil before we kill him? What is your limit to doing nothing?

yes. this nation is a free country. which means it will never be 100% safe. there are always going to be people in this world that hate us. personally i think that if we dont kill all of these people, and treat them more like a virus, then a person, then the violence in our own citys will continue. so to answer your question, yes there is a limit. and that limit is after we have killed everyone that is willing to strap a bomb to themselves and kill americans or anyone else they disagree with.
just remember. if terrorists put there weapons down today, there would be peace tomarrow.
if america put down its weapons today, there would be no america tomarrow.

These are not "people" that we are killing overseas, these are Islamo-Fascist terrorists who we are killing to keep them from coming back over here to kill Americans and to subvert the USA to their idiotic religion or whatever you call it. There is absolutely NO LIMIT to killing the terrorists,
until every one of them are DEAD!!!!!!!!!!

As long as those that we are killing are trying to kill us. safer but not safe? Guess you need to take the first step before you can walk.
