I see no wisdom -- none, zero, negatory -- in behaving in such a way as to keep OBL intimidated. F*** OBL. We've bloodied noses in Afg. and Iraq. Has it changed his POV?
1. Don't send the military into a strategically unimportant situation.
2. Don't send the military into an area you're unprepared to conquer at whatever cost in soldier's lives, civilians lives, and treasure.
3. If the crybabies in the press think starving children require military intervention, See rules number 1 & 2 or call the French.
