Counterterrorism involves far more activities than those that bear the "counterterrorist" label. Even before the attacks of 11 September 2001 made the subject a seemingly all-encompassing concern for the United States, it involved the efforts of many different departments and agencies. Counterterrorism includes diplomacy designed to harmonize the efforts of foreign governments on the subject. It includes the investigative work of numerous law enforcement agencies and the related legal work of prosecuting terrorist crimes. It involves measures by financial regulatory bodies to interrupt terrorist funding. As the allied military operations begun over Afghanistan in October 2001 remind us, it, at times, includes the use of armed force. Information gathering by intelligence agencies is another major part of counterterrorism. And all of these functions aimed at actively countering terrorist operations are in addition to the many defensive measures, taken by the private sector as well as by various levels of government, designed to protect against terrorist attacks.

It seems as if Pakistan is definitely vague, in true terms, as far as it's stand on Afghanistan is concerned. yes, it seems to be playing a two sided role with Afghanistan, but then again that's POLITICS isn't it?\n\ni feel both are dangerous up to some extent. Pakistan may be more though. Osama quite possibly is in Pakistan...

Protection of our domestic borders are probably the weakest link in our current defenses against terrorism. I can't agree to turn over management of our largest ports to a country from whom terrorists and terrorist funding has come.\nNo matter how confident you are of those whom are in charge, everyone has their price and thus are prone to corruption. I simply would feel more confident if those in charge were not from the United Arab Emirate...that's all!~

What does a terrorist look like?\nAre we backing this terrorist's country at this time?\nWhat can I do as an individual to help stop terrorism?\nWhat is the definition of terrorism?\nCan the CIA, NSA, or the FBI win the war on terrorism

Israel has the Moussad, an elite counter terrorism unit.\nSouth Korea has the Rocks, which would be an equivalent to our Rangers. The "Sand Box" has Al Quadia, and Osama Bin Ladin, well versed in terrorism. Our friends in Brittain have SAS.

My question is why would you want that?\nBut I think you should find a local anti-US terrorist group, tell on them and ask for that in return.

Not at all.\n\nIn Afghanistan, the Taliban is actually making a bit of a comeback this month.  Most of the country is under the control of warlords with just a small portion around Kabul that is actually controlled by the American forces and the Afghani government that they installed.  The rest of the country is pure chaos.  (Kabul isn't much better).\n\nIn Iraq, the "coaltion" forces have done a pretty good job of securing the single square mile in central Bagdad known as the Green Zone, and now most of the road to the airport is reasonable secure as well.  Unfortunately, they have "secured" the Green Zone by shooting anybody who tries to enter, so that's maybe not a great example of "controlling the situation".\n\nSadly, neither country is even close to being secure, despite the lies that come out of Washington.  Does the term "lipstick on a pig" mean anything to you?  This particular pig has been run over, disembowled, set on fire and sexually assaulted.  But my! doesn't that lipstick look pretty!

Reconsider the aims of our government and state!\nTerrorists were born after our intervention and injustice in the Middle East!

Having spent 16 months over here now, I can tell you that the Marines in the Al Anbar province actually do something similar to what you just described.  In fact they take cities that have had lots of problems and basically wall them in them in with a huge berm.  Then they only allow travel in and out thru a few tightly controlled check points.  This reduces the amount of weapons that can be brought in, and it helps to catch foreign fighters and others.

Increase our efforts in the war against Islamic Jihadist. Get tougher on those countries (Iran and Syria) supporting and fomenting terrorism as a way to spread  Islam to the world\nSeal the boarders by extending the fence and electronic monitoring. Prosecute companies that hire illegal aliens. Return to their native lands all illegals that are caught.\nMake permanent the tax cuts.... Better, disband the currant tax system and replace it with the Fair Tax (national sales tax)

Didn't see too many camels over there, actually.  There's plenty of sheep, but few camels.  There are more camels in Afghanistan.\nBut good luck.  Another fun thing to do is wait for night fall and steal anything that isn't nailed down from the Army.

They sheltered Osama Bin Laden. He killed about 3,000 Americans.\nThat's one reason why.\nTaliban killed thousands of non Pathan ethnic Afghanis.\nThat's why.\nThe narcotic policy was a good one but other Taliban acts far outweigh it.

Yes.  \n\nWe have a commitment until at least 2009 to be out there, and we, the Canadian Forces, intend to see this through.  \n\nWe first went to assist in toppling the Taliban regime.  But on our second series of deployments, we went over to pacify the country so that the rule of law can be established.  \n\nSave for a very small portion of the country, there is only the law of the gun in place.  We are there to make sure that the rule of law, the authority of the government in Kabul, is established.  There are millions of Afghans who live in the Middle-Ages, always fearing for their lives, with uncertain water and doubtful food, being all but enslaved by warlords and opium barons.  \n\nWe went over there to rebuild Afghanistan, to bring them into the modern days.  \n\nYes, we first went in with te Americans, but in the south, around Kandahar, it's primarily us, the Brits and the Dutch who are fighting under NATO's authority, not the Americans'.  We are honouring our commitments to larger organizations.\n\nAs for the death toll, do not believe for one second that I do not mourn their losses.  I might have never met any of our dead, but they are one of ours.  They are fellow Canadian soldiers who have given their lives in the line of duty.

Are you asking because of the EU situation?  I believe it runs deeper than that, as far as policies are concerned, not just terrorism
