What Will Follow Will Not

A Terrorist Can Attack At Any Time At Any Place Using A Range Of Techniques. It Is Physically Impossible To Defend At Every Time In Every Location Against Every Conceivable Technique Of Terrorism. Therefore, If Your Goal Is To Stop It, You Cannot Stop It By Defense. You Can Only Stop It By Taking The Battle To The Terrorists, Where They Are And Going After Them.

It Isn't Making Mistakes That's Critical; It's Correcting Them And Getting On With The Principal Task.

Strive To Make Proposed Solutions As Self-executing As Possible. As The Degree Of Discretion Increases, So Too Does Bureaucracy, Delay, And Expense.

In Unanimity There May Well Be Either Cowardice Or Uncritical Thinking.

They Will Do More Whether We Do What We're Doing Or Whether We Don't Do What We're Doing. And The Idea That You Could Appease Them [terrorists] By Stopping Doing What We're Doing Or Some Implication That By Doing What We're Doing We're Inciting Them To Attack Us Is Just Utter Nonsense. It's Just - It's Kind Of Like Feeding An Alligator, Hoping It Eats You Last.
