Killing Pablo escobar didnt solve cocaine problem it only worsen it, he killed all the competition and now that he is dead its free for all, if i may say that. Killing on particular terrorist or a group will not change anything. You kill one, two more people who saw you do it will hate you now. Now instead of one terrorist you have 2, yay success.
I completely disagree. I look at it more as a crime then an act of war, first of all, since we are talking about non-state actors and war is traditionally defined within the realms of states. What you are saying is policing does not affect crime, and you cannot stop crime. Well, this is completely hypothetical, but I would bet my life that taking all the cops away would lead to an increase in crime. Doubling the number of cops would probably lessen crime. You will never be able to put an end to the idea of crime or terrorism, but you most certainly can stop terrorist acts from taking place.
