Kill all terrorists

[Maciek]

The strategy of war on terror to kill all terrorists is my opinion a newer ending work. The terrorists are able to reatore ther losses in manpower. Soo it is not posible to win this war by only killing the terrorists.

[scm77]

No it isn't possible to win by killining all of them. Because after you kill one terrorist, a bunch more people think he is a hero and want to be just like him (become a martyr etc.)

Who's strategy is it to 'win this war' by 'only' killing the terrorists? Do you have any quotes? Is there any effective strategy that you can devise that doesn't include killing at least some of them?

Creating a straw man and then knocking him down -- by creating an oversimplified caricature of a highly complex and multifaceted strategy -- is only too easy.

I look at it more like pest control.
Terrorists like mosquitoes will always be around to pester people but, judicious use of repellent, insecticides, traps, zappers and eliminating breeding areas can control, contain and reduce the population to acceptable levels.
As long as we are individuals there will be terrorism; therefore, no you cannot kill all terrorists.

Is it possible to kill all terrorists?

Why, certainly.

Now, if you had asked "is it possible to kill all terrorists and not kill everyone else," well that's a harder question.

[One?]

you will have to kill the "will".

Kill one terrorist, create several potential terrorists out of his family. As One said, you have to 'Kill the will'.

I can think of a solution to this problem, but I'll just keep it too myself because I'll be flamed to death. ;)

i got a provisional, minimally-thought, solution for you....nuke the middle-east, most of Caucasus and certain parts of latin america and Europe and you got a brand new, terror-free planet. ;)


PS: i forgot afghanistan, pakistan and a couple of other places in Asia

Nope, then you get the people rebelling against the insane government that would do something like that.

[101ABN327]

You can do anything you put your mind to! Why not try? They make great targets! I personally like to dip my bullets in pig fat, so if you just "wing" them they are damned to the infernal regions...

[catchv22]

As someone brought up earlier in the thread, you can kill all the terrorists, the problem is not killing innocents in the process.

You forgot to nuke Lockport, NY.
Homeland of Timothy McVeigh. He was a terrorist too.

So are murders, rapes, stealing, etc. happen in every society. Does that mean we should stop punish the perpetrators? Terrorism is nothing but murders but in mass number. Besides, we don't kill every freaking terrorist unless he's dumb enough to shoot back.

[walford]

Does that mean we should stop punish[ing] the perpetrators? Terrorism is nothing but murders but in mass number.

Yes. The very fact that a person would feel that they had no other option but to blow themselves up in the process of killing men, women and children is proof on its face that he/she is a victim. Killing 'terrorists' [remember one person's suicide bomber is another's martyr] only creates more. Don't you know that?

We should therefore find out what it was that we did to deserve to have our loved one's heads cut off on television and resolve to correct it. To do otherwise would be so, well, American -- ugh!

Two sociologists find the body of a woman beaten to death on the street. One says to the other, "the person who did this must have truly been vicimized by society."

[catchv22]

While we should analyze why terrorists attack us, we should also keep the pressure on them. Some people just hate the west for no good reason and will continue fighting us regardless. Others aren't satisfied with our policies and such and are encouraged to carry out acts of terrorism through financial aid or other means. I mean if you're poor and there's a local warlord wandering around paying you to do these acts, are you really going to question him when he could have your whole family killed instead of getting money and food?

[5jumpchump]

Wow you guys have really done your home work rofl rofl rofl

[Ayura]

Terrorism to my knowledge can appear in all forms.

Anyone considered information terrorist? People who place viruses inside businesses computer systems, and will remove it if there demands are met etc

Should they be killed?

Also, who is to say a terrorist is initially a bad person? Im pretty sure most people here will understand that in certain times, terrorism is what people do in there own views and a 1000 other peoples eyes to justify certain things.



And you cannot possibly kill all terrorist. That is just the same as saying your going to kill ever ant. When you kill one, another will just be born.



THE ONLY WAY THAT TERRORISM WILL BE DIMINISHED IS THROUGH EDUCATION, AND EDUCATION ONLY

Eduacation rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl

[walford]

Education rofl

I thought that my satire was good, but I've been clearly outclassed.

[Ayura]

Yes, education, is the way forward :)


(honestly)

[Ayura]

5jumpjump, do find everything amusing?


I bet you laugh when you hear your primary school colleages say "*****"

[walford]

Yes, education, is the way forward (honestly)
Yes people who...
- fly planes into buildings
- blow themselves up in cafes to kill men, women and children
- throw babies into walls in front of their mothers
- rape and then kill women in front of their husbands
- fill mass graves with entire villages
- use chemical weapons on their own people
- feed people alive into plastic shredders
- stone women to death because they unsuccessfully persued a rape charge and were thus convicted of fornication
...do all of this and more because of improper education, cultural imperialism and lack of economic opportunity.

Just imagine how wonderful things would be in the Middle East if not for Western influence and the existence of the State of Israel.

as StarvingStudent said, it enirely possible to kill them all, but whether or not you can do it without killing everyone else is another matter entirely.
