What type of education do Americans need about terrorism and how to overcome it?
“Again, for every terrorist that is killed, there are more lining up to take his or her place. There needs to be a continuing program to reduce the frequency of terrorism, but it can’t be eliminated. Certainly in this global society, we [Americans] can no longer comfortably “hunker down” in our isolated shores. As former President Bush and now President Obama have both said, reducing terrorism will be a long and consistent struggle that is and will be frustrating, but necessary to sustain. This could take 80-years. After all, the struggle in Northern Ireland seems finally to be resolved, after only 1,000 years.
