We will still go by the rules but there are no "grey areas" any longer. The terrorists moved it up a notch and we will respond in kind.

Exactly my point (he says, facetiously). We just need to really take the gloves off and clobber some people with greater ruthlessness. In this way, we will scare the terrorists into not hating us any more.
This plan is exceedingly simple. I had been thinking too much. It's not a thinking matter. It's a bullying matter. Bullying works.
Right? I mean, it's worked very well so far. It's just that we have not been sufficiently brutal.
Right, Joe? When we "take the gloves off" and "move it up a notch," the terrorists will see that they have been out-brutalized and they will stop their violence because their fear of us will outstrip their violent imaginations and hatred.
Right?
