Sounds really like nazis. Who gave you right to judge people lifes based on the fact that some crazy assasins are hiding in their country? There is absolutely NO justification for murdering innocent people. You cannot do a good thing in a violent way. It's really simple - violence will create violence in reply. And that will start next World War. There is no point to fight for the world because there more likely will be no world after this war. Most of the countries have nuclear weapons now...

I agree there should be counter-actions taken - but not in a form of war to the whole country. This is damn stupid. Take for example Hiroshima in 1945. Based on your conclusions above - japanese should have launch a massive counter-attack on USA and destroy it as a country. But they did not...
