Any cent put into the current military complex to buy more superweapons is a waste. The money should be used instead to finance WORKING anti-terror-"weapons" like effective Intelligence and security services and systems, the policemen around the corner, long-termed measurements like eliminating immanent symphathies for terrorist acts among those "have-nots", or the desire for taking revenge.

If I'd be living in the ME and a F-16 is dropping a bomb on my house, killing my family, I'd know what to do next. Hate, unjustice, lack of education and povery are the best fertilizers for terrorism.

Cheers,
