Is it countries that harbor or develop weapons of mass destruction? Is it only countries that harbor terrorists? What really are the targets that we're aiming at in this war on terrorism.

en A man may devote himself to death and destruction to save a nation; but no nation will devote itself to death and destruction to save mankind.
  Samuel Taylor Coleridge

en What has not worked is for the Iraqi side either to present prohibited items for destruction or present evidence that they are finished.
