I see... so the suggestion of burning villages, razing homes, or going after the families of terrorists isn't advocating the use of terror?

See this is the same logic used by the Nazis in fighting insurrgents or resistance fighters during WW2 (which they called terrorists)... first it started with reprisals against the "terrorists" themselves... then they decided to target the homes/families of the terrorists for "supporting" them... this of course logically led to the conclusion that anyone "supporting" the terrorists must also be punished as an example, so the whole community was then held to account.

You claim to be in search of peace, but advocate the use of terror to enact revenge against "terrorists", their families, and their communities... without realizing that this will invariably lead to even more hatred and acts of revenge; thus continuing to feed the cycle.

As for your comment of seeing the reality on the ground, I didn't realize that you were also an expert or past citizen of Chechnya as well... or dealt with acts of terrorism personall... or are you just another arm-chair general like your beloved Bush/Cheney/Rumsfield/Wolfowitz?
