I'm anything but an expert on the subject but when you consider the vast sums of expenditure might it not have been better spent on satellites and other forms of surveillance equipment to moniter this trash then use drones and missiles or whatever to attack the heart of the vipers nest and in so doing send a powerful message that attackes on whichever countries homeland would exact such a harsh price they (the trash) might come to their senses one day and learn to co-exist?
