You can't take down all the terrorists as long as they have a populace to hide in that refuses to point them out and isolate them. Thus this strategy is doomed to ultimate failure.
Fully agreed. What's currently happening is not the solution what comes to terrorism, but it's still part of the solution. It affects the enemy's ability to conduct ops and thus at least slows down a downward spiral. It's better than nothing if you're not willing or able to tackle the root of the problem, the supporting populace as you imho correctly pointed out.
