Perhaps the terrorists would do well to remember Admiral Yamamoto's comment after his fleet struck Pearl Harbor. "I fear that all we have accomplished is to wake a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve".
One must remember that if one keeps annoying a kindly old dog sooner or later that old dog is going to anger and bite. How would you like to be on the receiving end of that bite? It is, after all, one hell of an old dog!
Some months back when I was deployed my first sergeant used to say "Go ahead and take the first shot, but don't miss - I won't".
