"Our great grandchildren will likely be fighting terrorism and perhaps even then future generations will have to continue the fight"
One line that sums up all that is wrong with the American way of looking at the world. I'd be quite interested in your definition of terrorism in this context.
As long as violence is all you consider as a solution to the problem, then you will condem your children to repeat your own mistakes, and that means innocent people dying.
Despite the suggestion that talking to some of the other parties involved, mainly Iran and Syria, Monkey-Boy continues to disregard the mistakes of the past and send more servicemen into the bloodbath he helped create.
You will eventually have to talk to these people - you might even find you have some common ground. It is working slowly (and not without problems) in NI, but luckily the main progagonists there have a little more gumption and respect for their countrymen and have decided to put down the guns.
Your government (and ours too) will have to talk - best be grown-up about it and start sooner rather than later.
