Lee,
Unfortunately no one really cares about loss of life. Osama bin Laden is being gone after mainly because his actions provided an excuse for politicians to do what they were unable to do prior to Sept. 11. bin Laden gave Bush the agenda he needed to make a mark in an otherwise certain to be lackluster presidency. The _only_ way to stop the WTS is to attack on all fronts. Single issue agendas are doomed to fail. What I mean by this is that all agencies for change have to unite behind a single anti-WTS banner. They love it when people say "if they'd just change their policy on, say, sex offenders then I'd kill my web site." Better to say, after they are forced to change x then I will press for y.
