I can foresee suicide bombers trying to hold Americans hostage to get Moussaoui freed from SuperMax.

We had better develop (and highly publicize) a strategy for dealing with it.

Why haven't suicide bombers tried to free Ramsi Yousef? He was much more high profile in al-Qaeda than Moussaoui. Or Khalid sheik Mohammed, who actually planned the 9/11 attacks?

Islamists know the answer they'd get, so they don't even try.

It's almost as foolish to overrate jihadists as it is to underrate them.
