16 out of 37... and 3 of the top 5 killed or captured.  Just interesting for those that say we haven\'t done anything concerning these terrorists.

Of course these aren\'t the only bad guys, just a few of the key players.

Im pretty sure no ones saying we haven\'t done anything, but as you said, 16 out of 37, and now we are moving onto other things without finishing the job.

Terrorists are like Pez from a Pez dispenser. One pops out and there is another ready to take it\'s place.

Khalid Shaikh Mohammed is a nice catch. This scumbag was deep into planning the 9/11 attack.

This war on terror is going to go on for a very long time. Probably longer than I will be around.

Who says we aren\'t finishing the job?  The War on Terror isn\'t only about finding individuals...  its about pinpointing regimes that sponsor terrorism and stopping them as well.
