gang wars in l.a. aren't handled by the u.s. military, and terrorism shouldn't and can't be either.

going into afganistan with arms and armor to remove that regime of course is an army job. finding isolated groups of terrorists and those who support them monetarily is not.
we need to assist other countries with law enforcement and investigations, and of course get bank accounts frozen who fund these guys. one of the side effects of the world economy going down the toilet is that $$ getting funneled to these groups is on a rapid decline.
You are kidding right? You are comparing gang wars in LA and Iraq and Afganistan?

we need to assist other countries with law enforcement? What exactly are we doing?

Where do you get your info? The world economy is negatively effecting terror? So the heroin that they export isnt selling so well?

Wow.
