Let me put it to you this way: If ANY American leader (Congress, President, etc) tries to negotiate with Al-Qaeda in a serious way (instead of just luring them into a trap), I want that person charged with treason and executed.
But proponents say al Qaeda has established itself as a de facto power, whether the West likes it or not, and history shows militant movements are best neutralized by negotiation, not war.
Well, we're America. We've done things that no one else has done in history, both good and bad.
Al-Qaeda lost all negotiating abilities when they started attacking and killing Americans. Khobar Towers, Embassy Bombings, USS Cole, 9/11, etc. You simply don't get to kill your way into power. Hamas is only lucky to be in power because the Palestinians actively support terrorist groups by voting for them. You see what happens when that happens. Massive sanctions, refusal to listen to them, complete shut down of public services, etc.
I cannot stress this enough. If any leader of our nation tries to negotiate with Al-Qaeda, you are treading on some very dangerous territory.
