How can you Win Terrorism????? simply you can't right????

Question

the Bush Administration over and over we can win the war on terror win in fact you can't. deter it yes stop it totally no way. terrorism has been with us for ages and bush makes it like it's something we aint used to here in america. When in fact we have handled terrorism but getting rid of it will take a more global effort and a lot of education. What makes someone terrorize is by what they think is the right way of doing things. You would think by now america would create a terrorism task force but we haven't and we continue to take on terrorism in the wrong approach. Terror is not like any other war we have had it's different why can't this president and vice president realize this????

Answer 1

We can win.

All we have to do is 1) convince them that we will never quit and 2) establish the foundation for religious, social, economic and political reform in the middle east. (Which is what Iraq is all about.)

Answer 2

In the US we have over the years had domestic terrorism. That is when the tree hugger destroy logging equipment, burn building and such to prove a point. We have some with the abortion issue.

In global terrorism, the only two things we can do is:

1: Kill as many as we can.
2. Let any country know that if an act occurs, and the terrorists are linked to that country, that country will pay a very stiff price for supporting terrorism.

This is something you have to be proactive in and cant sit back and hope it passes you by. Terrorists don't negotiate or talk, they act so, after a country who supports them gets some key places blown up, they might get the point.

Answer 3

Improper Grammar!!! You can't win terrorism. You can win the War on Terrorism! We can win this war if there were fewer liberals and the hippies that follow them stirring up problems by begging for peace and more people like President George Bush combatting terrorism aggressively. They should be reminded that "Freedom isn't Free" and that if we don't fight the terrorists, they along with radical Islamists will set up their Islamic world empire and we won't be free any more!

If we stayed longer in Vietnam and had the patience, we could have won but thanks to those same liberals and hippies we didn't. It is all about patience in order to win this war! You should read Ron Miniter's book "Shadow War" and you will see lots of stories of us defeating terrorists you would have never found in the liberal media! We are winning the War on Terror and we must keep doing what we are doing in order to win it!

Answer 4

You win against terrorism by not being terrorised.
Currently that is why America and the West is losing. Those terrorist-inclined see the reaction they are getting: the news coverage, the knee-jerk restrictive laws, the hysterical rhetoric...

If you want to make your cause known to the world, it's easy to deduce how to do it.
Why do apes in the zoo fling sh*t?
Because it gets a reaction.

And JW has one element of that: if you're not careful "you end up creating two more with every one that falls." and every mis-guided bomb or incident showing the USA in a bad light creates more.

So. Yes, deal with active terrorists. Intelligence and special ops, principally. This should get the attention on the news that ratcatching does.
(Why should you let one person in a million determine your news agenda, in a democracy?)

Separate the terrorists from their hinterland, the population that might turn into them or against them. This means economic sanctions against reluctant and uncooperative governments, but also being friendly, being nice to people. Yes, even to people who might at first be very distrustful of you. (you've given them enough cause. Admitting that might help). And that sort of aid powered contact is going to be a lot cheaper and more effective in the long run.

And incredibly hard though it is, get a sense of proportion. The casualty list of the twin towers is duplicated in premature deaths every month on America's roads.
If Al-Qaeda really wanted to kill Americans in great numbers they'd open cut-price fast food restaurants. That kills thousands every month too.
(what they want is fear, and headlines, so this wouldn't do.)

Compared to all the other risks people face, terrorism is nowhere, unless it is your job, your duty. (And that IS a hard and dangerous task that I respect.)

I've done my time with terrorism. Heard three bombs, and was close enough to feel the shockwave off another.
But I wasn't terrorised.

Answer 5

We can win the war against terror, just not the way Bush is fighting it.

Well, he's half right.

You need two approaches...I call one "bullets and bombs" and the other is "books and blackboards".

Bush is ardently pursuing the first prong. Killing all the indoctrinated hate filled psychos (terrorists) out there. Some people you just can't reach and this Dem has no problem taking them out.

However, half the solution is worse than no solution at all.

Even though you may be successful in delivering bullets and bombs to the enemy, you end up creating two more with every one that falls. This is precisely what Bush is doing. He may be whittling down existing numbers, but they are constantly replaced and we poison the children against us...these will be terrorists in ten years. Perpetual war unless you also target the children. And not with bullets and bombs...you use books and blackboards.

By providing education and economic opportunities both now and in the future. Currently, most poor Muslim children (which is most Muslim children) receive a free religious education in a madras. You can imagine what some( but not all) teach - many only teach religion and omit academics. We need to counter this by opening free religious schools of our own. Muslim schools which teach moderate Islam as well as a typical academic load. Now we can educate (better economic prospects) earn goodwill (something we desperately need) and head off or at least mitigate the future terrorists.

Two prongs. Kill the existing ones and teach/provide for their future. Remember, we won the cold war how? War or Economics?

Sadly, Bush has torpedoed our credibility with his run up to war, prisoner abuse, and his "my way or the highway" approach. This is important for one reason only...no credibility means no schools ergo no "Books and Blackboards" approach. In sum, he might be whittling down terrorists now (doubtful as we need MORE troops as opposed to less in Iraq for the surge) but he is failing miserably in heading off future generations.

Answer 6

We are not trying to "Win terrorism", we are fighting it. We are sending a very strong message - attack us & we will attack back. Is it better to sit by & debate or take action? Everyone seems to have the answers - President Bush is wrong - well where is your plan? It is so easy for us to say this is how it should be done, but are you doing anything about it or just criticizing? President Bush is taking action, right or wrong in your opinion, give credit where it is due!

Answer 7

what do the war on drugs the war on cancer the war on terror all have in common

they are DESIGNED to be prolonged wars that make greedy capitilistic people money

in a authoritarian society the leaders use force to keep citizens in line, and in a democratic society they use propoganda there is a reason they say ignorance is bliss

don't delete an alternative perspective

power fuels greed and greed grows till it becomes an obsession/addiction which is a weakness in the human condition that surpresses moral behavior

focus on happiness and think outside the box

Answer 8

Dude, there is not any conflict on terrorism, its all one huge excuse to tax you extra, positioned you below extra scrutiny, make you frightened of the international so which you lower back the militia and consequently enable the militia to contnue plundering for the rich few who create those lies in the 1st place. Terrorism as all of us understand has existed and could survive continually in humanity. insurrection and violence alongside with shortage are and continually have been a actuality of existence. cutting-edge terrorism as all of us realize it fairly is a capacity of keeping apart muslims and every person anti-american and have them style-forged as evil minded. at the back of terrorism are the oil barons reaping havoc around the middle east besides as wall highway investors reaping havoc for the time of international markets. i could be extra worried approximately that than a terrorist blowing up your nearby bus. certainly extra human beings die by using loss of healthcare than all terrorism deaths in history more desirable a hundred fold. so in step with danger quite of having so riled up and offended approximately terrorism, human beings in u . s . a . ought to get riled up and particularly offended that your user-friendly needs of existence are no further being presented, in spite of all the taxes being paid and trillions being profited from the financial gadget and issues like oil.
