The numbers game on terrorism that Republicans are too dumb to get

If getting a terrorist is your sole objective, and killing another 50 non-terrorists is just the unfortunate collateral damage, consider this: even if you get the one real guy, the 50 non-terrorists blown away by mistake had families and friends. So you have succeeded in creating, what, say 50-100 future terrorists -- the ones who will fight any way they can to get even, like the 13- and 12-year-old sons of the woman unfortunately killed by the daisy-cutter -- and perhaps another 300 or 400 sympathizers -- the ones who won't tell us where the real terrorists are. How many do you think are going to say, "Oh, that's OK, it was just a mistake"?

So the question is, how many future terrorists are George Bush and Dick Cheney going to create today?

Get it?

See why tough-talking Republicans are actually so weak in fighting terrorism?
