The Importance of Killing and Capturing Terrorists

Cato.org: When does 32,200 minus 60,000 equal 109,000? Cato.org: General McChrystal is the first that I heard or saw who talked about this. He said there's nothing linear about killing and capturing terrorists. If you have 10, you kill two. Don't think that the number left is eight. And so you actually put more terrorists on the battlefield as you're killing some off the battlefield.
