Turn on the television. \n\nThe mass media, video games, lack of traditional family values have had a great impact on today's youth.  \n\nToday we live in a world where being a thug with a grill and pullin' ladies that have been scarred by life is cool.  In fact if you work hard enough at it you can spread a message on how to live a short and shallow life.  \n\nPeople also rather get diamond necklaces for their dogs instead of helping someone who is starving to death.  \n\nWhat kind of society do we live in that places material gain above a human life.  Sure, we are a powerful nation...we shouldn't fear an attack from a terrorist, we need to really pay attention to what we are teaching our future generations.\n\nHopefully we can make a change!\nPeace...

Violence towards these ppl is only going to fuel more violence.\n\nIf that is not evident by now to you and others, then I don't know how much more evidence you need.\n\nThe only way to tackle the anti-American terrorism dilemma is through some major diplomacy but mostly, through incentives.\n\nTake Palestine as an example... Palestine is impoverished, ppl are starving, etc... sanctions have resulted in this. Now ask yourself, they know they could get our aid if they just do what we say but is that making them listen to us? NO.\n\nAll that is doing is making them hate us more.\n\nInstead of bullying these extremists that will die starving before they will be 'owned', how about using the funds we put into the military on incentives for them to build their infrastructure.\n\nThink about it... if we helped Palestine build it's infrastructure and economy, would they not be grateful? Yes they would. Of course some would always fight.. but after a generation or two, you can't tell me their children wouldn't remember and start to question anti-American sentiment.\n\nThat is just one example but you the idea.

If you mean prevent the growth of terrorists, then it would be to bring up the standard of living in poor countries and educate the people, destroy despots and introduce a free society that allows and nurtures their specific religions and beliefs without denying others. Since there will always be poverty and governments that are cruel to their own people, it will take a long time. Effectively you have to transform entire societies.\nTo prevent the introduction of terrorist activities within the US, we should adopt similar restrictions and intelligence gathering as that in other countries that are currently under siege, perhaps similar to Israel?

Liberals like Murtha? \nFor starters, we could put some more thought into the effort. For instance, if we are going to fight the war on terror, focus on the country where there exists a true tie to terrorism---Afghanistan. Assist Pakistan in better ways. Call Saudi Arabia on the fact that their country produced a very high percentage of the 9-11 terrorists. Quit violating the Geneva Convention by torturing anyone. Yes, terrorism requires unique ideas but information obtained by torture has historically NOT been valid information. Obtain a mulitnational effort for Iraq; train and supply our Guard troops with legitimate armor---don't make them buy it off Ebay.\n\nFor starters...

We should all just talk, peacefully. I don´t get the point of guns, bombs and all that cr*p they use. As if´s that´s going to fix anything. They are making it worse!

TERRORISM . . . . and anyone who says anything different is only fooling themselves. Without STOPPING TERRORISM. . . .no other issue matters.  Nothing matters if you're DEAD.

3) Growing Terrorism - Hmmm...could we be doing anything to piss anyone off so that they would want to kill us? Last I checked we hadn't invaded any...oh, nevermind...or bombed any weddings...Oops, nevermind again...well at least we haven't tortured any...Ah, I give up.

So you are going to give the people 48 hours?  are you going to add a note to the notice saying, " if you are a bad guy or think you may be a bad guy or have any intention to harm the US or its people please disregard this notice."\n\nC'mon...you are talking about nuclear warfare...I don't care how you cut it...it makes us worse than the terrorists that we spent so much time trying to demonize.   \n\nNow I am glad you are not running the country...how's that for an insult...you actually make me feel better that G. W. is in office.

"Palestine"?!?! A "nation" ???\n\nLet me see... What about... (1) Stop blowing innocents teenagers up at the entrance of a disco (2) stop making up "massacres", (3) Stop dancing and chanting like imbeciles\nwhen a islamofascist attacks America (remember 9/11) (4) stop burning american flags as their national sport (5) Stop supporting every f*cking fascist dictatorial regime in the world (remember Golf War) \n\nBWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I really dont believe that there is a cure for terrorism.  There is no way that everyone in the world will ever get along, we all just have different mentalities, sadly President Bush found that out the hard way!!

No, the only thing we can do is deter terrorism.  We do this by being a "hard target"... which means making it difficult for terrorists to attack. Being a hard target entails passive and active measures... elevating our defensive posture (extra security at airports, etc) and implementing stringent criteria for foreign visitors/students coming into the US and better coordination between local, state, federal and international intelligence agencies. Perhaps this coordination between agencies is most crucial to successfully deterring terrorism. But, I doubt they will ever all be able to be on "the same sheet of music." As well, we need to maintain an open and active dialog with all nations... we need to better understand them and seek their cooperation in deterring terrorism.\n\nKeep in mind:\n\n- The US has its own "terrorists" organizations which wish to overthrow the government (Anarchists, some militias, etc)... just because someone is foreign does not automatically equate them to being a terrorist.\n\n- During the Revolutionary War...England labeled our soldiers as "terrorists" as well. "One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter."\n\n- Terrorism comes in many forms (religious, political, social, economic, military, some animal rights and environmental groups).\n\n- Terrorism has been around since the dawn of man. \n\nThe bottom line is we can’t be everywhere...but can make it difficult for a terrorist to attack...by being a "hard target."

There was a great essay I saw on this the other day, here:\n\nhttp://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/5/26/155350/677\n\nThanks to the original writer, I couldn't have said it better myself.  You can't wage a war against an emotion.  It's like the "war on love" or the "war on sadness", the "war on regret".  You just can't "win" or "lose", there is no goal.  I'm still trying to figure out how people got Iraq mixed up with "terrorism", despotic and tyrannical dictator and murderer, sure, but not a terrorist.
