Re: Official Title

Finish the transitive end of your last sentence...

"Do the Yank government really think that occasional bombing and pouring in more weapons will help...bring order to the area and achieve peace?" No. No way in hell. No one in our government thinks that.

"Do the Yank government really think that occasional bombing and pouring in more weapons will help...them get re-elected?" Yes. If they can spin it to somehow blame the other side or show that they are being 'tough on terrorism'.

The sad bit is, they may be right - just by framing the issue this way, it implies that maybe their opponents within the government might be 'soft on terrorism' or at least 'polite and mannerly towards terrorism'. Not on a first-name basis, but more 'Hello, how do you do, Mr. Terrorism' terms.

US Airforce Trying to Correct The Error

"Jihadists just need more training in OpSec," says Carlisle, "It all comes down to education and training." The Airforce is providing valuable feedback to Jihadists in an effort to help them climb this steep learning curve. "The just need to learn not to do this. Then they would be harder for us to find."
