America could pay lip service and negotiate, knowing that reason won't work with unreasonable people, then just put the American, Canadian and British armies into Israeli uniforms and be done with it. Who would have thought that bin Lauden sticking his head in the sand would turn out to be an effective tactical move? Another idea might be to invent and publicize a renegade group of radicals who intend to kill bin Lauden regardless of any new peaceful policies that are introduced. This way, retaliation can be less likely because the U.S. can condemn the "radicals" as not representing the will of the government.
Offered for your consideration.
