How we deal with terror is our greatest weakness. Not recognizing and defeating our enemy is a fast path to destruction. Radical, fascistic Islam is the enemy that our president and so many others refuse to see. Our enemy is relentless. They have struck again. They see our weakness. They exploit it. Barack Obama was exactly the change our enemy wanted.

Reaction to the latest attack is predictably falling along the same ruinous line. Treat the bomber as a criminal. Say he acted alone. Promise prosecution to the "fullest extent" of the law.

Not so fast. Reports suggest that former Gitmo detainees helped plan the latest attack. Gitmo detainees are non-uniformed military combatants. Once interrogated, quick military action should be their fate.

Our luck is running out.
