Explain to me again how hunting wolves allows then to flourish, but hunting
the food supply makes the food supply to diminish... Shouldn't the food
supply flourish too?

That is your opinion, I happen to have a different one.

I sure do, let me respond this way:

Say you had a patch of forest that had an over abundance of wolves. How
would you go about reducing this number?

1) Hunt the wolves?

This would just weed out the less successful specimens and allow the others
to breed. End result, more wolves.

2) Hunt the Wolves food?

Less food means less new wolves born as the old wolves die off. End result,
fewer wolves.

Bin Laden is a wolf, the Arab governments and charities that support him are
his food supply. To control the terrorists we must cut off their source of
money and weapons. Any other approach is futile.
