"Remember that wars go on for longer than seems remotely possible when you start them, and that the really dangerous enemies are not the young men trying to kill you today, but their unborn children, should they grow up to hate you, too."
I really enjoyed the all encompassing nature of this article. We do not exist in a bubble as many now seem to believe. Our actions will always cause reactions.
See, physics plays a part in society as well as nature, no matter what politicians would have us think about terrorism. You can't completely destroy something, only change it. And if we continue trying to eradicate all terrorist, we're just going to end up with "Jihadists II: The New Batch." Then, next time they will be able to morph into giant spiders and bats to attack. Puts "Liquids on a Plane" type fear to shame.
