Again, you've made my point, but while further refining it; it's the old saw about a lawyer vs. men with guns.
People/governments are more often persuaded to sympathy with words than bombs.
My only point, but a large-ish one, I think.
As an aside, to those who think we overstep in the mideast "because we're not from there" and UBL
is, and this somehow legitimizes his activities-
Is it better that we urge them toward representative democracy or that UBL bully them to the caliphate?
Do we now favor the idea of coercive, rigid and intolerant religious doctrine over choice?
Or is it only Christian religions that are "oppressive"?
Anyone care to forecast the possibility of civil war
everywhere in the mideast if we bail, and UBL is given a free hand.
