I disagree. We don't end terrorism by killing terrorists. All we do is create more martyrs and enemies.
The main point of conflict in the middle east is between two different factions of Islam. The only time they are interested in killing Americans is when we choose one side over the other.
Bin Laden told us his exact motives for the 9-11 attacks. EVERY SINGLE ONE of them involved actions we took in the Middle East.
