There are two battlefields.

The real one, and the virtual battlefield.

Terrorists cannot be victorious on a real battlefield against a real military.

They cannot take ground, they cannot defend ground, they cannot achieve a military victory, tactical victory, nor even a win strategic positioning.

The only thing a terrorist can do is kill.

They rely completely upon the virtual battlefield to win against any opponent: It's a Propaganda War.

KNOWING that there *IS* a Propaganda War is the first step in defeating terrorists. KNOWING that the Propaganda War is real, and is the only chance for a victory against the US, almost, all by itself, destroys any chance of victory against the US.

Let everybody know that this war, like most of the wars the US has fought since World War II relies upon the Propaganda War more heavily than any battlefield's results.

I totally agree, the only way to win against a terrorist is to attrt the terrorist while creating stability in the region they operate in.

You are so right! But those not paying attention don't know there is a propaganda war.
