Understanding terrorism

So we should base our military strategies around the propoganda of the enemy? This isn't a PR campaign, this is a military campaign. We can't win the former until we win the latter. Repeat, we MUST win in Iraq, regardless of how anyone feels about the cause of the war, the president who engaged it, or any other factor. We can't pull another Somalia or Vietnam this time. Much more is at stake.

It is both. And yes, you do have to take enemy propaganda into account when making military strategy. Because if we end up behaving the way their propaganda predicts, they become stronger.
