Lets try. Cast a big net on day 1. Dont go small, whack a mole has one or two mallets and you wait for heads to pop up. The targets wouldnt know hunting season was about to open on them..... Wack a mole is how we have been doing the war on drugs.
Go for a big body count on day one, if they say we can get ten targets....no good I want 200!
Drones werent where they are now today back in ‘98 we only had tomahawks. Then after 9/11 the bad guys knew to go to ground. The cartels must hide, but in a way that criminals hide....not like targeted terrorists hide. Wacking moles is good, we should start wacking.
