Here's an example:

There is no question that terrorist incidents will continue to plague the international community well into the foreseeable future. One primary reason for this is the inherent difficulty involved in preventing a terrorist attack before it occurs. Another is the often fanatical nature of individuals who carry out the - often suicidal - assaults. These factors are often the primary reason that the only action that can be taken in response to terrorism is after-the fact. Herein, too, lies a significant and controversial problem; which responses are appropriate? Few disagree That economic sanctions against that nation determined to be responsible are acceptable. Nonetheless, while this action may dissuade some nations from hosting terrorist groups or providing refuge to individual perpetrators, it does little to punish those directly responsible. It is for this reason that it is important that nations are perceived as willing and able to make appropriate use of their armed forces to conduct retaliatory operations. A brief, illustrative examination of US practice and policy follows.

Very intelligent insight on this issue.

You can't stop a committed suicide bomber, Ask the Japanse.
They also can't contiue without support or indifference from those around them. If there neighbors see them with a rent-a-truck and have no reason for a truck, something is up. If the fertolizer co. sells 500 lb of fertolizer to a none farmer and doesn't ask why. Whos at falt hear.
You can't drive down my street at night or day without someone noticeing what you are doing and asking you that question, if you don't have a good answer, you can bet the police will show up shortly. I used to think they were just nosey neighbors but now I come to realize that we are all we got and we look out for each other. crooks can kiss my ass, the police will harrass you in my neighborhood.

More power to the boys in blue.
I seem to be noticing more in my neighborhood as well. If it is out of place, I take notice, assess, and react as necessary.
I think that this site has a lot of good information on it. Makes for good reading, and awareness. I think the time has passed for keeping one's head in the sand.

My pleasure.

Here's an interesting article found on the Drudge Report:

WASHINGTON (AP) - Watch your step! The Pentagon is developing a radar-based device that can identify people by the way they walk, for use in a new antiterrorist surveillance system.

The 4th, 5th, and 14th amendments to the constitution are the the citizens rights and the criminal (terrorist) delight.
I have never met anyone that has an answer to prevent suicide-- they may stall it for a while , but if the person is dedicated to do it -- they will sooner or later, one way are another, if they happen to be a terrorist that wants to take out others with them we need some new and better answers for prevention and if that happens to be profiling - so be it.
