Fair enough Bobert, maybe I'm not giving the guy a chance... if he's talking about dialogue well, that's a welcome paradigm shift; you're quiet right. But i suppose what I'm saying is that at this stage sorting out the issue of terrorism will require something far deeper than say, moving boundaries or removing troops, though these are important starts. It will require a fairer world where human dignity is elevated from the position it now holds, as a far lagging behind competitor of profit. We need to stop thinking in terms of 'them and us'. I'm not saying this will solve the problem overnight nor will it cause every violent person to change their ways, but it would help reduce it to a few isolated incidents rather than a global mass phenomenon. Then there's also the fact it needs to be a global action. Even if the US were to address its foreign and trade policies differently and put pressure on the IMF and World Bank to act more fairly, you'd still have to bring other rogue countries into line, too many to list here.
