Terrorism

Ok so some shitty ass obscure tyranny pisses off some of it's citizens and we happen to buy oil from them so they decide to murder some of our civilians.

We retaliate and the terrorists say "THEY ARE AT WAR WITH US NOW".

We do nothing and the terrorists say "THEY ARE WEAK, WE CAN DO WHATEVER WE WANT!".

If you hate america and love terrorists, even by taking the terrorist's side it is obvious that there is nothing we can do to stop them attacking us. So we must retaliate. Therefore the war to defend Iraqi and Afghanistani civilians from terrorism was the correct course of action.

What abou the logic of the terrorists?

1: My point is we must retaliate at a certain intensity not give the countries where the terrorists came from billions of dollars as a sorry for whatever decades old diplomatic scuffle the terrorists are using as an excuse.

2: The usual run of the mill strategies which stop terrorism. Sun Tzu, logic, guerilla warfare and counter-insurgency.

3: We retaliated against the Taliban and Saddam. They were terrorists.
