Every person, organization, etc has a purpose. And they usually dont have the purpose of taking over the world, since that would be futile. Chechens didnt want control of russia, they wanted their own little country. Nobody will set a goal for themselves that they will never be able to achieve, because it is crushing mentally when time keeps going by, they re doing their best, and yet they are not making progress. And I am sure the nameless, faceless enemy is not stupid. They realize that thousands of their own soldiers aer dieing. I'm sure if we can point a gun and shoot down 1000's of people, we can negotiate with them. Posiedon, you do have a point...but groups like Al-Quaida arent democracies, what the top guy says, goes. And changing peoples minds wont be easy by any means, but it is possible. And part of that would be showing them that America isnt merciless, cold, ruthless, etc, as they are led to believe.
