    That’s not how stopping terrorism works. Look at Afghanistan. The US spent 20 years trying to kill them off. For every one killed, 2 more got radicalized. It’s almost like slaughtering them makes them hate the occupiers more, not less. The Taliban took back the whole country in a couple days after being occupied for 20 years. Stopping terrorism with violence doesn’t work.
