I agree with Peace that covert, well-targeted asassination is the way to go in the way on terror. People who don't really understand pacifism might find this point of view hard to understand, but in the absense of a perfect world in which nobody "needs killin'," it makes a whole lot more sense to me for the most truly dangerous individuals to be identified and weeded out, than for masses of one country's draftees and recruits to wreak destruction upon hugfe numbers of another country's draftees, recruits, and civilians.

I recall when there was a lot of hubbub about reported CIA efforts to assassinate Castro and/or other revolutionary leaders. I never understood why such projects were so horrifyingly distasteful to folks who seemed to have no qualms at all about dropping bombs on masses of non-combatant human souls, with little or no immediate effect upon "enemy" leadership.
