Even more basic, what is meant by al Qaeda? The organization or the popular movement, or both? Which al Qaeda are we fighting against? A win would require the elimination of al Qaeda's desire to harm the USA, either by changing the hearts and minds of al Qaeda members or by completely eliminating al Qaeda without creating another enemy to take their place. The latter is extremely unlikely to happen or even be possible. The former isn't likely to happen without the USA taking actions that coincide with al Qaeda's primary objectives, creating a win-win scenario (sunken costs notwithstanding). Are there still members of al Qaeda that wish to do harm to the USA? If yes, the USA have not won. No. That would require incorrectly assuming that al Qaeda's goal is to carry out further attacks on American soil. Such attacks are merely tactics in their war against the USA, not a primary objective. When no al Qaeda members wish to do harm to the USA, the USA will have won. Simply killing al Qaeda leaders won't accomplish that. It might have a decade or two ago, but that time is long gone. Now, the leaders would be replaced and the organization and movement would move on. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

That wasn't my intention at all. I asked a legitimate question framed in a realistic hypothetical situation. You avoided answering the question by trying to change the hypothetical situation. Newsflash: Some people really don't have extra income beyond food, rent & utilities, even with multiple jobs. Those people get sick and become contagious, too. Math tutoring available.

No. I do, however, believe that my health is my respnsibility. [Reply]Let's consider the hypothetical guy Adam. Adam is poor, and cannot afford health insurance. Hmm. Okay. … Way to manipulate the hypothetical to avoid facing the issue. Next time, save yourself the trouble and just ignore the post if you don't want to answer the question posed. Have a good night.

Do you believe that good health occurs in a vacuum. Let's consider the hypothetical guy Adam. Adam is poor, and cannot afford health insurance. He struggles to keep up with the rent, utilities and food bills. He can't even afford to buy and insure a car, so he takes the bus to work. Adam comes down with a nasty cough. Not being able to afford medical attention, he sucks it up and drives on. The cough gets worse, but he can't afford to miss work, so he keeps going, so he can keep up with rent. It tuns out Adam has bronchitis. Furthermore, he's infected several others on his bus and at his workplace, since he was unable to afford to seek medical attention and get the proper medication. Unfortunately, those infected by Adam in turn infect others. How does the cost to society from Adam avoiding the medical attention that he can't afford compare to the cost to society if he had simply been able to go see the doctor under a universal healthcare plan? Just as an educated society is in everybody's best interest, so is a healthy society. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

How, exactly, was our support of mujahideen during the late 70's thru the early 90's "fighting terrorism?" We called terrorists freedom fighters and enabled such groups with funding. That is indicative of strategy being implemented successfully by our enemies. We allowed ourselves to be drawn into Afghanistan, just as the USSR had been ~20 years earlier.

Behavioral pattern changes. Captured explosives, project boxes, arrests ect. Successful attacks vs. failed attack ratio changes. Changes in message traffics. Areas considered dangerous getting downgraded. Overall activity ect. ect. If you consider change of tactics as a sign of failure, then yes, they have failed.

That's what I thought, too, so I looked it up. According to my dictionary: Capitol (usu. the Capitol) 1 the seat of the U.S. Congress in Washington, DC. • (capitol) a building housing a legislative assembly: 50,000 people marched on New Jersey's state capitol. 2 The temple of Jupiter on the Captoline Hill in ancient Rome. capital noun 1 (also capital city or town) the most city or town of a nation, usually its seat of government and administrative center. • [with adj.] a place associated more than any other with a specified activity or product : Milan is the fashion capital of the world. As it turns out, I was wrong; the right word was used. It just had a typo. I can't figure out how "Capital Grille" make any sense for a name. It might be that the proprietors of that restaurant were trying to play off of Capitol Hill, but incorrectly used Capital instead of Capitol. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour!
